Gouge Hub is a community platform for sharing and finding checkride gouge materials. We help pilots prepare for their checkrides by connecting them with valuable resources and experiences from others who have taken the same exams with the same Designated Pilot Examiners (DPEs).
Use the "Find Gouge" section on the homepage. Select the DPE name from the dropdown filter to see all available gouge for that examiner. You can also filter by test type (PPL, IFR, CFI, etc.) to narrow your search.
Click the "Submit a Gouge" button on the homepage or in the navigation menu. This will take you to our submission form where you can share your checkride experience and materials.
