SA CAA CPL Air Law & Procedures
 
Hi

Could anyone help me out here. I'm heading to SA in the next week to do my SA CAA CPL/IR Validation.
Before heading out I need to pre study the Air Law & Procedures.
Would anyone know which are the best books to study and if there are any websites which have exam question banks. Or DVD/CD Question banks.

I would also need the study material sent to the UK so any info on which shops would send it out to.

Any info would be great.

Cheers

These guys used to produce notes and sample test questions.

Why Train Here - Why Train Here | Babcock Flying Academy
Pilot and Flight Crew Training School | Grand Central South Africa
Avex Air

Babcock and FTS are based at Grand Central. Avex is at Lanseria I think.
Grand Central is just up the highway from the CAA. As I remember the notes are pretty much of a muchness. I used all three and on balance preferred FTS. Why all three? Well, for super secret reasons the CAA only gave me one shot to pass the examination so I had to be sure I had all the falcons in a row the first time.
Good luck anyway. I think you'll find some of the questions quite tricky.

Here's an add on link to the Avex site. They did have a very clued up guy who would do private tutorials at some cost bit well worth the effort. Every right answer you squeeze out is worth quite a lot and if he is still around he'll be up to speed with the latest in tricky questions.

Massive thanks for that. How long ago did you do the exams.

Just little worried as I need to sit these exams in the next week or two. Need to get going with the study.

Do you know if any of those schools will send the study material overseas to the UK. Ive tried one school so far and they will not send the material I have to pick it up in person, which I cant do from the UK.

Anyway big thanks for that
:ok:

Must have been about three years ago. I very much doubt that any one will send stuff ex SA and even if they did it probably wouldn't make it through the post. FTS is run by a couple of SAA flight crews. It may be that you could telephonically prevail upon one of them to bring or have brought a set of notes to LHR from where you could collect them. I suspect the law and flight procedures are in two volumes. I fear that you might have sailed a tad close to the wind on time for this one. I'm not sure that you can just walk in to the CAA and push button the exam any time you like.
The CAA in Midrand have a reasonably navigable website which contains quite a bit of the stuff you might need to know splattered around the place.

MT206, I wrote the SACAA exam around this time last year, to revalidate my ATPL.. the Babcock CFA questions are an excellent source for revision.. and the SACARS/CATS are available on the SACAA website so you can look up anything that's not clear from the questions. A week of question bashing did the trick for me!
I'll have a dig around my books tomorrow, if I can find the questions then I am more than happy to post them onto you. I'm UK based.

Mate if you do have any notes that would be great. I'm currently in the UK North Devon. Also do you know if you can sit the Air Law Procedure exam anytime you wont or do you have to go by CPL exam dates on the SA CAA website.

Cheers

Air Law and Procedures Notes and Questions
 
Hi All,

Anyone written this recently as I have to take the exam shortly and looking for notes and question bank if anyone has them or can point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Post # 22 refers and armed with that and a trusty telephone , it's amazing what might be accomplished.

ab33t 13th Sep 2013 18:35

Thanks if you note that that was posted in 2011 , I have the Babcock notes but they are out dated.

Let me rephrase the question . Does anybody have or know who has updated their notes and questions.

Any help will be appreciated.

cavortingcheetah 13th Sep 2013 22:02

If that would refer to Part 61 I thought that the SA/CAA website incorporated much of that. Babcock, FTS and Aeronav may well have updates that, for a fee, can be PDFd, faxed or downloaded?

ab33t 15th Sep 2013 17:56

I did try FTS they dont do their manuals and question bank in PDF. I could buy them and have shipped to the UK . Thats worked out way to expensive
