Private Pilot Airplane ACS The Airman Certification Standards (ACS) provide clear information on what an applicant must know, consider, and do to qualify for a given airman certificate or rating. They enhance safety by ensuring that standards, guidance and testing for airman certification all work together effectively. The ACS provides a single-source set of standards for both the knowledge test and the practical test. It also enables the FAA to keep standards aligned with H-series handbooks and knowledge test questions. Built on the Practical Test Standards (PTS), the ACS adds the aeronautical knowledge and risk management elements needed to support each PTS Task. It does not change or lengthen the practical test. The ACS provides a clear, easy-to-use "flight plan" for the material the FAA expects an applicant to know (knowledge), consider (risk management), and do (skill) to qualify for an airman certificate or rating.
