Hi all,
Passed flight planning today first up, im doing my conversion from Atpl(h) to CPL(a) then onto Atpl(a)...only got Law and Human factors to go for CPL(a). Ive had a PPL(a) for about 10 years so i though id do something with it anyway haha, you never know.
The echo is still tested and you can expect all types of load scenarios.
Anyway the exam consisted of the following:
3x3 markers on weight to shift, weight to add to maintian CofG in Echo
15 x 2 mark questions on landing dist reqd, t/off dist reqd, PNR's I had 2. Cp/Etp i had 2 also amongst the 15 described
The remaining 12x 1 markers were academic ones like DA, and aircraft general knowledge, climb gradients, rate of climb reqd.
Nail those 3 markers and you will be right, the graphs in the exam are not that bad but as others have mentioned have a very sharp pencil and good eraser!
Back to the celabratory beers!!
