Is there a source of questions I can cut and paste into short quizzes for a pre-solo student? I am trying to make short (~10 question) tests. The student, my 15 y/o granddaughter is not hitting the books like I keep asking. I am at the point of saying we will have a test before our flight, flunk and we study instead of flying. She could pass the flying part of a PP ride,but would flunk the oral. I have told her she has to pass the PP written before I will solo her, but that seems to be going in one ear and out the other. May 2012 16th birthday.
Looking to save myself time instead of having to write the tests myself.
