Shaun old boy , take this thread in the manner its meant dude Its a thread designed to encourage people to take the piss and have a bit of a giggle at the expense of the CAA , Unfortunately I for one am having a giggle at now you for being so anal . I dont need to study for the exams I assume passing them already means I dont have to .
As you point out though If i am ever lucky enough to get an airline job then they will put me on some course specific to the aircraft Ill be flying , during that course maybe they will show me where the fire extinguishers and crash axes are and give me some sort of performance input in line with the procedures laid down in the ops manual . Even in my exam which i concentrated and studied hard for the CAA didnt not think it appropriate to examine me on performance of the mythical MRJT ,oh no they gave me a big CAP and asked two questions on the SEP , thus preparing me very well for my transition onto the boeing 73A320 SKY TAXI .
However I am sure on your TR the instructors gasped in awe as you correctly located all the emergency equipment without prompting having remembered your detailed instruction in such matters , they fell off their chairs when everything on your base check aircraft failed and you correctly worked out the grivation of a polar stereographic mercator conformal lamberts meat pies chart and got everyone safely down again using only knowledge gained on the atpl course
Well done you

This response was just a silly little piss take and is no way representative of the authors ,the CAA's, any JAR employee , His Holines the pope ,Basil Brush's or the president of the democratic republic of congo's personal views and shouldnt be treated accordingly .

Right Im gonna take sound advice and go study how many crash axes an aircraft with 701 seats has for when Im lucky enough to get a job on dash 8 , Ill show em
