The times, they are a-changin'!

1. Before you take any PPL exam, you have to be 'signed off' by a qualified person.

2. New PPL exams are under development; the old nonsense questions will be binned and only questions which are relevant will be set.

3. Gone are the days of the nonsense in the Nav exam of one incorrect answer rendering the next few answers wrong.

4. UK PPL questions will ultimately go 'online'.

....and for the cheats who put the known questions into an 'app', expect your collars to be felt.

The new era will mean that students will need to study the topic and answer reasonable questions. Gone will be the days of simply memorising answers to utter rubbish - when the online system is up and running it well randomise the questions for each section from a master database and the answer sequences will also be randomised - so 'c. is always the right answer' and other myths will no longer apply.
