FRQ Charlie Bravo

Gooday :-P

Thanks for that info there, very helpful.

What sort of questions are usually the 5 markers?
Normally PNR 2E's / PNR 1ENGINOP's?
They seem the hardest they could throw at us?

Which notes did you use for study FRQ? Did you do the AFT prac exams prior to attempting the AFPA exam?

I am self studying the AFT course notes at the moment, purchased them not long after a Secombe Course.

Also what sort of tips do you guys have for speed? I'll start:

1. A hell of alot of tabs through my book for quick ref.
2. Hand wrote all the SAT's next to the TAT's for all flight levels, for TAS calculations. MN x 39 x SQRT (273+SAT)
3. Highlighter for the different direction FL's (fair common one :-P)
