Hi
very simple question but I could not find an answer after some research.

How many questions are there in each JAA ATPL exam paper?

Thanks

Thanks for reply.

FCL 2 is for helicopters, though.
Is it the same for Aeroplanes (FCL 1)?

cheers

No it isn't the same but, having been pointed towards JAR-FCL documents as giving the right answer, that should help your search. Alternatively, you will find that the mock exam option of Bristol QB is representative!

Well in fact the corresponding FCL-1 for Aeroplanes do not contain any ino regarding the number of questions on ATPL paper plus I do not have access to Bristol QB

Anyway it's not a big deal it was almost a curiosity; I will find out at the exams ;-)
