Hi Phil,
I see that you mention you wrote a series of questions for the OPS exam, using statements taken from "Commission Regulation (EU) No 965/2012". Now this may be a stupid question, but when you wrote the questions would you hand-on-heart be able to say that you could link every one to an EASA learning objective, as opposed to plucking statements out of the document for the sake of writing questions?
The reason I ask is that our instructors teach us OPS directly alongside the EASA learning objectives, so there should be nothing in these exams that we haven't already been taught or seen before. I just wondering why so many people have failed this exam all of a sudden? I've been through the learning objectives myself and won't be afraid to comment and appeal anything that I feel doesn't fall inline with an LO statement.
Than again, am I just being paranoid?
