PPL Confuser

Hi,

Suggest you get a copy of the PPL Confuser by Neung Sornying. It got loads of practice questions on 6 of the exams including Nav - testing your whizzy wheel skills etc.

A large part of the PPL Nav paper is plotting a route on your chart and then answering questions about it. It is straightforward, but I had a panic for a few minutes because I couldn't find the start point ! - It was just a question of Latitude and Longditude - But I was reading 000 00 01 as 1 minute of longditude when it was actually 1 second (or something like that).

So make sure you are well grounded in the basics as well as a good all round knowledge - Trevor Thom Book 3 is excellent.

Best of luck,
