More than a question bank
AviationExam is a long-established EASA ATPL question bank with a strong set of offline apps. Both banks are comparable in size — around 16,000 EASA ATPL questions each — so in 2026 the real question is what surrounds the bank. ATPL Training bundles the theory, the practice and the study tools into one euro-priced subscription.
Comparable bank, more around it.
Both platforms sit at roughly 16,000 EASA ATPL questions on the EASA 2020 syllabus. ATPL Training adds an integrated LMS, AI explanations and aviation tools on top of the bank, rather than selling the bank alone.
An integrated LMS, not just a question bank.
ATPL Training includes 835 structured lessons across 248 modules covering all 13 EASA subjects, so you learn the theory and drill the questions in one place. AviationExam is a question bank without student courseware.
AI explanations across the bank.
When you get a question wrong, ATPL Training explains the reasoning in plain language, with AI explanations across the question bank. AviationExam does not offer AI-generated explanations.
Lower yearly price, billed in euros.
ATPL Training Basic is €99.90/year (€8.33/month) — roughly half AviationExam's ~€199 annual plan — with a genuinely free tier and no FX surprises.
