IREX Exam

Sorry about the previous post!

Just done the IREX exam and missed out.

I have lots of views on CASAs exam policy and the INappropriateness of the questions esp in the IREX.

My experience is that the deliberate setting out to confuse and trick is the hallmark of this exam. It does not test knowledge - it aims to hide knowledge. And it ultimately will make no difference as to whether one ir a good CIR pilot or not.

Anyway - to the point.

I did heaps of sample questions, but they were all easier than the exam itself - especially the CASA samples.

I read that a subscriber to this group had possible answers to the CASA samples - and also other practice questions.

I'd really love to reveive these if they are available.

Best wishes

CIRtobe

Oh cry me a river ffs!

We all been there.
Thousands of pilots before you have been through the same thing.

You think exams were any easier back when you could only take them twice or three times a year in a group sitting?

geeez there's nothing worse than up and coming pilots bitching about how hard they have to work their brain to get qualified.

Spare me.
