Indigo Call letters for Freshers

[wings on fire]

Thanks for the help guys
@Maverick:I got the payment mail about an hour ago!!

[capt.xyz]

anyone got the payment conformation or the hall ticket mail yet?

[kinko]

guys are all these questions from oxford??

[Pradeep747]

@kinko-not all r from oxford

4. In what way is the longitudinal stability affected by the degree of positive camber of the aerofoil?

[cobra24]

@pradeep
specify the airfoil you are talking about

in case of wings ... the longitudinal stability would decrease
in case of horizontal stabilizer/elevator ... long. stability would increase

[Pradeep747]

answer is No effect because camber of the aerofoil produces constant pitch down moment independent of AOA

Q-An aeroplane performs a steady horizontal turn with a TAS of 200 kt. The turn radius is 2000 m. The load factor (n) is approximately:
a)1.1
b)1.4
c)1.8
d)2.0

It says answer is 1.1

[kinko]

@pradeep747-could you check your inbox

[euindkan]

And 1.1

Firtst find out the angular velocity of the aircraft.
Angular velocity(omega)= V(TAS)/r(radius)

Take proper units . You will get omega in radians/sec.
Now convert that into degrees//sec and you will get 3deg/sec.

That means rate one turn. So find angle of bank by 10%TAS+7.

Now load factor= 1/cos(angle of bank)
L=1.1


Cheers

i doubt if such question would come... its an examnination for the freshers

[dynamiteflyers]

@flying rocks 320

Absolutely!!!

[Pradeep747]

Thank u very much Euindkan..its so simple and i was taking it big and faltered.

@flyrock& Dynamite- Expect these kind of question and these are the question which is going to make u clear the exam and remember they are not looking us as freshers but as future AIRLINE PILOTS(sorry if i am hard & pl come out the freshers shell) and that was a simple q which needs little thinking(Of course i dint do it),still i hunted for the answer and got it...

What are the basic elements transmitted by NAVSTAR/GPS satellites?
offset of the satellite clock from GMT
i ephemeris data
ii health data
iii ionospheric delays
iv solar activity

A) i, ii, iv
B) ii, iii, iv
C) i, ii, iii, iv, v
D) i, ii, iii

[Vasu Gupta]

In relation to the satellite navigation system NAVSTAR/GPS, "All in View" is a term used when a receiver:

A)is tracking more than the required 4 satellites and can instantly replace any lost signal with another already being monitored

B) is receiving the signals of all visible satellites but tracking only those of the 4 with the best geometric coverage

C) requires the signals of all visible satellites for navigation purposes

D) is receiving and tracking the signals of all 24 operational satellites simultaneously


Are these kind of questions expected..?

[blackhawk777]

You have altered the question. But not given correct options.....

Correct Answer : Offset of the satellite clock from GMT, Ephemeris Data and Ionospheric Delay.

[Vasu Gupta]

Which of the following statements is correct concerning the principle behind the correction of one of the NAVSTAR/GPS satellite navigation system errors by the transmission of the signals on two frequencies (L1 and L2)?

A)The effect of receivers noise can be reduced due to the interference of both frequencies

B)The influence of shadowing on the GPS signals is proportional to the inverse of the carrier frequency squared

C)The path delay of the signals in the earth atmosphere is proportional to the inverse of the carrier frequency squared

D)The effect of signal reflections (multipath effect) can be reduced due to the interference of both frequencies

How Much Hrs. Or Amount Of Studying Required?

Dear Indigo Applicants,

Good luck once again on getting the letter and all d best for the d-day!
just wondering , considering the level of difficulty on different aspects involved in these Indigo selection tests, what amount of studying and how much vastness /level of knowledge would one grade fair to even attempt to guarantee success?

The comparison can be done on the basis of knowledge one might have from
1.DGCA/ ICAO exams?
2.CPL or ATPL level complexity?
3.Performance (a/c loading etc.) or just Plain -cpl -level navigation knowledge
reqd?
4.Compared to other airline exams , where would you rate Indigo's test at ?

Your response ( especially from previous takers of the tests / experienced pilots / applicant who've experienced diff tests at diff. levels ) would be highly appreciated.
(Only serious comments plz.)

Thanks for your time,
CR

32) Two identical turbojet aeroplanes (whose specific fuel
consumption is assumed to be constant) are in a
holding pattern at the same altitude. The mass of the
first one is 95 000 kg and its hourly fuel consumption is
equal to 3100 kg/h. Since the mass of the second one is
105 000 kg, its hourly fuel consumption is:
A) 3787 kg/h
B) 3426 kg/h
C) 3259 kg/h (Mark scheme answer)
D) 3602 kg/h
->My workings: 3100/95000=0.03263*105000=3426.3kg/h???

hey guys...
those u hav got the letter for payment...wts d last date for making payment ???
and has anyone got the letter regading the final date n centre yet???
all the best evryone...study hard...

[dragstar]

@love2fly8510

The last date of payment is 10th Dec.
and I doubt if anyone has got hall tickets till now.
