   school that covers all the subjects that you need to know in order to take and pass you
   FAA Private Pilot Knowledge Test. We thoroughly cover the subject areas in a fun and
   easy to understand presentation.       More details



The King Schools Practical Test Course helps you Ace your Checkride – Guaranteed.
   Learn What Your “Checkride” test will be like.
   Your Practical Test, commonly referred to as your Checkride, consists of two parts;
   An Oral Exam conducted before you go flying and an in-flight test in which you
   demonstrate your skills in the aircraft.   More details



 Your Get It All Kit includes additional courses & books to prepare you for the cockpit.

    It’s much more economical to learn the important concepts you will need to perform
    in the airplane before you climb into the cockpit. These courses are specifically
    designed to ensure you’ll fly smart and impress your instructor with your skills.
    Overcome common training hurdles with King Special Subject Courses & learn about
    areas important to being a knowledgeable & skilled pilot.     More details

Editor's Notes

  1. Use Cases are a tool to help us design our pages to anticipate and satisfy the various needs of our visitorsRoles – who they areTasks –why they would be on your site
  2. Who they are – which helps us understand their frame of referenceWhat’s important to them – information, price, value, recognition% of repeats versus 1st time visitorsWhere they’re coming from (keywords), social
  3. Pre-research – is it right for me?Early research – wants to learn what are the important factors in a purchase decisionBrowsing – not interested in buying, but gathering information for a possible later purchaseDetailed – spec level, reviewsUse cases allow you to sell the right benefit, allow for optimized navigationExample of bad – hot deals sign up on home page
  4. Cruise vacation website
  5. Top selling entry level package, however, on web it underperformed.
  6. Even though different roles and tasks, some key questions will overlap
  7. Not clear what’s in packageNot clear if I need to pass and whyNo USPLacking selling benefits
  8. Worked with SII to remedy these deficiencies and our senior mgt wanted to go live as quickly as possible and recognized technological limitations & limited resources that prevented us from going with all their recommendations.
  9. Video TabsOrganization of information
  10. 4 levels of trust:Perceived trust – brand awarenessVisual trust – professionalism of siteIndustry trust – associations, “as seen in …”, secure shopping emblemsSocial trust - reviews
