A&P General Oral & Practical Flashcards: 354 Cards Built From the Exam's Own Sources

How to use the deck

Start with your test report, then practice answering.

Your Airman Knowledge Test Report lists the ACS codes you missed. Use those codes to choose a starting stack, and answer each prompt before you turn the card over.

Check your AKTR

Mark the General ACS codes you missed. Every content card prints its code on the front.

Pull the matching cards

Sort by subject and code. Keep the purple supplemental cards separate until you want to review how the test is administered.

Answer before you flip

Give your answer aloud. The back provides a direct answer, its source, and an explanation of why the topic is tested.

How big will your oral be?

The FAA sizes your oral from your written score: a 4-question minimum, plus one question for each missed ACS code. Set your General written score below:

oral questions, worst case

Sizing rule per FAA Order 8900.1 Vol 5 Ch 5 Sec 11: the General written is 60 questions, the oral has a 4-question minimum, and one question is added per missed ACS code (worst case assumes every miss is a different code). Your AKTR lists the missed codes, and every ACS-content card prints its code on the front. The X cards are supplemental and are not included in that sort.

What is on the cards

STRUCTURE

ACS code on each content card

The MTG generates your test through FAA-S-ACS-1 elements with answers keyed to source material. Each ACS-content card carries its task code; each supplemental X card is labeled as outside the ACS map. Every card includes a source note.

YOUR WEAK SPOTS

Sort directly from your AKTR

Your written test report lists the ACS codes you missed, and your oral gets one extra question for each one. Every ACS-content card shows its code on the front, so you can pull a stack that matches your report. The supplemental X cards stay separate and explain the testing process.

VERIFIABLE

A reference on every card

Each card points to its source, such as an FAA handbook chapter, 14 CFR section, advisory circular, or exam order. That makes the answer auditable and keeps the July 2026 edition tied to a documented source set.

NO SURPRISES

A dedicated exam-mechanics section

30 supplemental cards explain question sizing, the 30-percent stop rule, retest scope, session limits, and paperwork. Each card distinguishes FAA requirements from field-reported or editorial guidance.

SCENARIO PRACTICE

59 Risk Management prompts

These scenario cards make you explain the hazard, the decision, and the safe next action instead of memorizing a one-line definition. They are kept distinct from Knowledge and Practical Prep cards.

READABLE

Direct answers on the back

Every answer leads with the direct response, turns lists into spoken checklists, and ends with why the topic matters. The format helps you practice recalling an answer instead of recognizing it on a page.

Check three of the source claims

These links open the public FAA and eCFR material used for three examples on the cards.

43.12

Look up 14 CFR 43.12 in the eCFR. It's a reserved section: the falsification rule moved to 3.403 in 2025. Then check what your current study guide teaches.

12 / 12

The FAA publishes a sample O&P test. Every one of its General oral questions is answered on a card in this deck, and its sample project is one of our practical-prep cards.

8900.1

The exam-mechanics cards cite FAA Order 8900.1, Vol 5, Ch 5, Sec 11, the live document that tells examiners how to run your test. Pull it in the FAA's DRS and compare.

Common questions

Does this include actual exam questions?

No. The Mechanic Test Generator builds each applicant's exam individually. This deck organizes General study around the ACS and authoritative source documents; it does not claim to reproduce a generated test.

Will I get printed cards?

This purchase is digital. It includes a duplex print-at-home file. A manufactured boxed edition will be considered only after demand, proof quality, and economics are validated.

Has the FAA approved this deck?

No. It is an independent study aid. The ACS, regulations, FAA handbooks, and your instructor remain the authority. Each card includes a source note so you can verify the material.

I bought it. How do I study with it?

Start with your knowledge test report: it lists the ACS codes you missed, and your oral gets one extra question per missed code. Pull those cards first. Then run the deck in Leitner rotation (the included guide shows how), and finish with the Exam Mechanics section the week before test day.

Use your missed ACS codes to build a General oral study stack.
