    Are there any apps or online resources that you use frequently? Any that helped you study for your license(s)? What were they and what about them was so good?

    Haven't found any yet myself! Hoping to start casually working towards PPL. But I've heard that there are apps to do your flight planning and log your hours.

    when I was preparing for my PPL theory exams, I used Airquiz.com. It's very good, but I think Air law was favoring UK syllabus rather than EASA.
    For hour logging - you need a paper log book so your FI/CFI can sign it. You will be required to send it in to IAA when applying for licences or ratings. Any hour logging app would work as a backup only. I use google docs spread sheet (excel free alternative), it works very well for when you need to do a quick calculation for your hours etc.

    Once you get your licence, I think you'll find that skydemon is the "bee's knees" for GA flying. But don't touch it for your flight training.
    When you're learning how to navigate you will have to use charts and paper, this is the exam standard. When I was preparing for my nav exercise flights I was cross-checking my calculations with ones you can get from skyvector.com.
