Being a lowly AF Pilot :hmm::hmm:, and that too, with a strictly Fighters background, I managed a bare 5/10 in this quiz and could finally get 10/10 only after FOUR more attempts.

Pretty poor, I know, but, would you like to check out your knowledge?

6/10 on first try, but I am Brit Mil so I don't feel bad about not knowing the US civil regs. The Weather Station Symbol sent shivers up my spine though... memories of student met brief at Shawbury (which appeared to be the only place in the known universe where QFF was briefed daily).

6/10.

Not bad I guess for someone who got as far as Air Experience Flights and throwing up in a Jag T2 during his flying 'career'.;)

I got 6/10 as well, and funnily enough, I'm an ex cycle proficiency instructor. Maybe there is a common link here Flarkey!
Perhaps with my knowledge of two wheels, I could have been a harrier ace, and excelled with bicycle type undercarriage landings (now please be kind with any sarcasm that may head my way)

8/10 PPL unused for 25 yrs.

After an excellent landing you can use the airplane again!

An engineer gets 4 wrong and still scores 7/10 - I like that scoring system!

10/10 but guessed on numbers 8 & 9 as I don't pay that much attention to FAA requirements on those two.

6/10. I was in the Air Cadets once (briefly). Knew three, the rest were lucky guesses.

9/10 at the first attempt. Fly a lot to the good 'ole US of A in my current job but have to admit to never having heard of CENRAP ( the one I got wrong) before. Must try and get motivated on my next Trans Atlantic and read more about American terminology............................on second thoughts I think I'll stick with Nuts and FHM :E

0 out of 10. Maybe I should have actually taken the test, or paid attention in school.........

Now who do I see about extra lessons:}

12/10, but then I'm a harrier pilot.
Computer said 5/10 but it was wrong.
BTW, Like my boot flaps?








Did I mention I'm a Harrier pilot?

As an A2, I don't have to do tests - and I'm not telling you what I got any way!!!!!:O

Certainly not spelling tests, but as an A2 that was just there to catch us out, wasn't it?

Gnd

It would be crass to look perfic all the time, don't you agree?

Hence not wanting to show my inability to answer questions, just lucky I don't crash in the USA!! :ooh:

8/10 Shame the top hat wasn't awarded on the basis of that test

10/10

I suppose you would expect an A2 to get these simple questions correct.:D

(Note: HPa are technically the correct reporting units!)

Oh, with ease but for goodness sake, look slightly fallible or they will start to question us - that would be worrying!!
