Public directory + pilot reports

Profiles first. Reviews grow over time.

A DPE can be found before anyone has reviewed them. Every profile separates public directory facts from pilot-reported price, response, scheduling, and gouge signals. A listing is not a Checkride Radar endorsement or identity verification.

Nationwide directory, local knowledge

Every profile helps.
Every report adds the story.

The current release includes a dated U.S. public-directory snapshot. Ratings, fees, response time, scheduling, and gouge remain blank until pilots report their own completed checkrides.
