ATPL Flight Planning/PEXO
Hi all,
Just sat ATPL Flight Planning and absolutely tanked it. I finished with half and hour left and went back to double check the big questions. All of my answers were within 50KG (Usually 10-30Kg) of my selection and I clicked the finish button thinking I had nailed it. I put a lot of study into this and like to think I am a pretty switched on guy, I passed all of the practice exams I did with 90% plus. I was working the questions accurately and not using "rough" figures etc.
They rolled out the new PEXO system today so I wonder if the questions have been re-worked. I think what may have burnt me is the CASA rounding/accuracy limits. A lot of my answers/working (EMZWs, max allowable altitude etc.) were very close to the limits/mid points so I worked them accurately (Instead of rounding weights to the nearest 1000KG, temps to nearest 5 degrees etc.).
Has anyone else sat AFPA recently? (Particularly post 24th Sep using the new PEXO system) I would be interested to know how you did.
Thanks
