Well reading and understanding the instructions properly is actually part of the test.

I just concluded things based on what previous post mentioned, and what logically could be deduced from what was present, without any instructions.

Still got time to understand these instruments, if hasn't been exposed for flight instruments, and this is first time, should not judge to harshly about what this might be telling, is just 17, and should not start to discourage someone at that age.

But I do suggest instead of just jumping blindfolded into the test like this, read slowly trough the instructions, take some notes and mental notes.

If not there are plenty of options online where you can get better understanding for these instruments.

The intention for these tests, as I understand it, is that pilots and non-pilots have an equal chance to pass. Familiarity with these instruments is not a pre-requisite. The explanations given at the start are intended to suffice. I understand that it is normal for candidates to score quite reasonably with no preparation bar Maths / Physics revision.

The orientation is a multiple choice, I have to choose one of the three diagrams shown. I know how to find the Compass but I just don't get how to identify Artificial Horizon and RBI. The Artificial horizon looks rocket science to me, all I see is a circle within it blue and brown!! how in the world can I see the direction? sorry I'm a newbie..
I have no idea what I have to do in the control tests, and I'm using the keyboard not a Joystick for the control tests, if that helps...
Where can I find this compass test software
