How it works

Ask anything. Get a CFI-quality answer.

Every question runs through a real retrieval pipeline — not a general-purpose chatbot guessing from memory.

You ask

Type a question — "When do I need a Mode C transponder?" — in plain English.

Zulu retrieves

Your question is matched against every major FAA publication using purpose-built aviation search.

Live data is added

If the question involves weather or airspace, Zulu pulls current METARs, TAFs, NOTAMs, and TFRs.

Zulu generates a direct answer, citing the specific handbook, section, or CFR rule it used.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

The things pilots ask before downloading Zulu.

What is Zulu?

Zulu is an AI-powered aviation assistant app for iOS and Android. It includes AI chat grounded in every major FAA publication, 1,000+ practice questions for the Private, Instrument, and Commercial knowledge tests, a full pilot logbook with export, and live weather, NOTAMs, and TFRs.

Does Zulu have practice questions for the FAA knowledge test?

Yes. Zulu includes over 1,000 multiple-choice practice questions covering the Private Pilot, Instrument Rating, and Commercial Pilot knowledge tests. Every question includes an explanation with FAA citations so you learn the reasoning, not just the answer.

Free users get 10 questions per day. Pro users get unlimited quiz access.

Does Zulu include a pilot logbook?

Yes. Zulu includes a full-featured pilot logbook that tracks FAA categories (PIC, dual, cross-country, night, IFR, and more) and supports PDF and CSV export for flight schools or insurance. The logbook syncs across all your devices.

The logbook is a Pro feature.

Is Zulu good for studying for the FAA knowledge test and checkride?

Yes — that's the primary use case. Zulu is built first and foremost for student pilots preparing for FAA knowledge tests and checkrides. Between the 1,000+ practice questions, the AI chat that cites FAA sources, and the full reference library, Zulu covers every stage of your prep.

Does Zulu provide live weather, METARs, TAFs, and NOTAMs?

Yes. Zulu Pro pulls real-time METARs and TAFs from aviationweather.gov and live NOTAMs and TFRs directly from the FAA. Ask "What's the weather at KPAO?" or "Any TFRs in the LA basin?" and get current data.

Live aviation data is a Pro feature.

How much does Zulu cost?

Zulu has a free tier with 10 AI chat messages and 10 quiz questions per day. Zulu Pro is $7.99/month or $59.99/year (about $5.00/month) and includes unlimited AI chat, unlimited quiz, the pilot logbook, and all live data features.

What FAA documents does Zulu know?

Zulu's knowledge base covers every major FAA publication — the Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge (PHAK), Airplane Flying Handbook (AFH), Instrument Flying Handbook (IFH), the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM), the full Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and every Airman Certification Standard. New documents are added regularly.

Is Zulu a replacement for a certified flight instructor?

No. Zulu is a study and reference tool. It is not a replacement for a certified flight instructor, an official flight briefing, or pilot-in-command responsibility. Always verify critical safety information with your CFI and official sources before flight.

Which devices does Zulu support?

Zulu is available on iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android. Your chat history, quiz progress, and logbook all sync across devices when you sign in.

How is Zulu different from ChatGPT or generic AI?

Generic AI chatbots guess from training data and frequently hallucinate FAA rules. Zulu is purpose-built for aviation: every question is matched against real FAA documents before answering, and citations are always provided. Zulu also includes features general chatbots don't have — a full knowledge test quiz engine, a pilot logbook, and live integration with FAA and aviationweather.gov data.
