A2+STS bundle
If you plan commercial work — A2 and STS together is often cheaper.
Contents
What it is
The A2+STS bundle is a combined preparation package covering both the A2 theoretical exam and the STS (Standard Scenarios) exam. One subscription gives you the question bank, mock exams and study material for both certificates.
A2 and STS certificates are often required for the same commercial use cases: inspections, photography in residential areas and agricultural work. Bundled preparation saves time and money versus separate purchases.
Who it's for
The bundle suits those planning commercial operations who already know that A2 alone will not be enough — an STS authorisation is needed for specific scenarios such as flying over people. If you anticipate those operations, STS is the logical next step.
For students building an aviation career, the bundle is an investment in broader competency. Employers value pilots with multiple certificates, and the bundle makes acquiring them more efficient.
Comparison
Compared with separate A2 and STS subscriptions, the bundle typically saves 25–35%. It also saves time — no need to switch between platforms or manage separate accounts.
The alternative is purchasing A2 first and adding STS separately later. This makes sense if you are unsure whether STS is actually needed. The bundle pays off only when both are genuinely required.
Start
Bundle options are available at /pricing. Recommended approach: focus on the A2 exam first, then move to STS material. Studying both simultaneously is possible but sequential study by section is more efficient.
If you are not yet sure whether you need STS, start with A2. A2STS allows you to upgrade your plan and access STS study material later without repurchasing everything.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I sit the A2 and STS exams at the same time?
- The A2 exam at TKA and the STS exam through an accredited organisation are separate processes. The bundle prepares you for both, but the exams are taken separately on their own schedules.
- Does STS require A2 as a prerequisite?
- STS-01 and STS-02 require a valid A2 certificate as a prerequisite — you must pass A2 first. The bundle lets you prepare for both in sequence.
