Default Glider knowledge test questions in searchable form

Looking for the entire catalog of knowledge test questions (650+) in a format that can be keyword searched (.pdf, .txt, etc.).

I've found several links (even on FAA website) but all end up broken.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
JB

Thanks Dan, but neither of those are from the glider bank, but rather the private pilot bank. While there is quite a bit of overlap between those two, there is also significant differences.

Still searching.

Last year I asked for a 700 +/- question long test from one of the on line testing services, then I cut and pasted from the browser window to notepad to produce a text file of the entire question bank. Quite easy.

A text file is searchable. I don't have the file and I don't remember the source.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I did purchase the Dauntless (checkride.com) software and while it contains the entire question bank, it will not output the questions in any searchable format.

This is where I scrapped the entire glider question set

Got 98% on the exam.

Thanks for that. That is EXACTLY what I wanted except for the fact that it only has about 75% of the question pool (~480 out of ~660 questions).

Still searching for a complete (or at least nearly complete) set.

Thanks
JB
