it s 100% FAA (gleim book), forget your CRP5.I don't remember to have seen any JAR question.
it s mainly about graphism reading and there is nothing to calculate except an easy weight and balance to do which will take you 4-5 minutes.

study load factor(answer from the graph), aerodynamics(answer from the graphs), propeller twisting(angle of attack or incidence?), X wind max (from graph), taxiway sign to read (easy stuff), why engine become hot (mixture too rich or too poor?)...forget about JAR AIR law.

this exam is not so hard cuz you have time and no much to calculate , just read the question, go to the graph, and pick the best answer.

If you haven't study the gleim at all recently (like me)or any FAA quizz in the past, you should be OK!

Don't stress too much cuz the chances to be selected are very very slim anyway.Just go to Innsbrusk, pass the test, have a dinner with other pilots and exchange info where else to apply,...

good luck
