Could you build this?

Partial The app shell, voice interaction (via realtime speech APIs), and scoring UI are vibe-codeable. A credible examiner needs a carefully curated question bank and scoring rubric grounded in FAA ACS standards, which requires aviation instructor expertise.

What it would actually take: Stack would be a web or mobile front end with a realtime speech-to-speech model (LLM plus TTS/STT) for the examiner. The hard part is the content: a structured ACS-mapped question bank, follow-up logic that matches real DPE behavior, and a scoring rubric validated by certified flight instructors or examiners.
