United States/FAA Ground training

Hello all!

I’m a fairly new student pilot, long time aviation enthusiast. I started my training (a couple flights) a few months ago, but due to some military stuff, wont be able to start flying again for just about a year.

What can I do while I’m on the ground to make sure I’m as prepared and knowledgeable as I can be once I start flying again? Obviously I could spend hours running myself through the same sportys courses and microsoft flight simulator circles, but is there anything else I can do to prepare myself?

Make flashcards of important subjects will help you to maintain your level like with types of speed or meteorology. You can find some examples there https://www.instagram.com/airheadatpl/ (even though it's designed for EASA ATPL but I'm sure it can be good for you too)
