I recently finished the dreaded writtens, thank you whoever is up there!
JAP
In July PoF only had one equation, but May had wads, methinx it is becoming less problematic (or did I just understand it all better).
I personally hated the exams with so few questions & marks, so little scope for mistakes. M&B, Perf, IFR Comms & VFR Comms (People do fail Comms)
Having to relearn stuff I stopped using 22 years ago was tricky but fun, only the exams were a bit of a problem, but not insurmountable. (quick mental arithmatic test, how old am I?)
My tips to all doing FPl, my succesful exam pass was done by doing all the high mark calculations first, then the Jepp VFR Qs, then the CAP Qs, then the White Jepp chart Qs, finally the other planning Qs. (reason, minimal map folding, especially at Gatwick where the tables are smaller than in a Lancaster).
Regardless of the written instructions, people write all over the question papers, do what you think is most useful to you, but don't forget to transfer the answers to the orange paper.
Good luck to all doing the exams this month, I feel for you, you can all do it.
