[Johny Boy]

Aviator

No i am not planning to sit for July attempt.
Yes i got QB-2.Have mailed them to those , who as a courtesy sent me questions and most of them are similar to the ones you posted.

[stalwart2010]

@nityam
Please could you us the exam time and venue details.Thanks

[Johny Boy]

Nityam

QB-1 is posted in thread and questions of QB-2 is also in this thread.
Do put some effort and search it.You will get others topics with solutions too.

[nityam]

thank you @ jonny boy....
@ stalwart2010
and i ve just recieved a mail from miss sandra stating that i ve been short listed for the exam on the 28th and 29th of this month and i ve to forward a confirmation to capt upendranath and the last date to send my confirmation is the 24th of july

[Johny Boy]

Congrats for getting Mail:D:D
All the best for Indigo exam:D:D

[shrads0101]

has ne1 received any news about the final date and venue from Mr . Upendranath...

[critical]

Not till yet. I wonder why so many confirmation mails till the end,, and why they keep stalling about giving the ONLY damn info that matters. Anyways can someone tell me answer of following please.

Echoes are received 30 degree to left.A/c hdg is 120 M , Find QTE?
thanks,, and good luck to all:ok:

[errordetector]

This is getting really difficult. Every one seems to be getting a letter for confirmation for July but me. I had sent a reply with the questionnaire in June. My friend has been shortlisted(applied around the same time, has a very similar Cv) for the exam but i have not received anything yet. I realise i am complaining which is not very professional, but nor has cae been. I dont live in Delhi and a weeks notice is not too much to ask for a professional exam. I have written multiple emails. Tried to call them numerous times. Everything goes unanswered. If anyone has any suggestion as to what i should do it would be very helpful.

PS. Apology for ranting.

[critical]

agree with ya

and no apology needed dude,,its not ranting. This thread is for support and help and discussions. Generally people who cant take it,,say stuff,,cause the same thing never happened with them.
I been in situation like you numerous times dude,, n frankly i got no clue about it. anyways good luck

[Oscalima]

Hi
I know this does not fits in this thread but just wanted to tell that i appeared for the indigo attempt in december 2011 and was able to clear the written exam.But unfortunately couldn't clear the interview stage.Since then i've been sitting at home because i cannot re-apply in indigo ever again.
Now i am planning to go for A320 type rating.Does any one have any idea whether Indigo would give me a chance as a type rated on A320 or does the policy that i can never apply in indigo once i fail the interview still stands?

[critical]

check your inbox.:)

[planeboy_777]

Just Make sure that you have stated 25 Hrs of Multi-engine in bold (10 sim + 15Actual)
because they are only interested in Validity and ME hrs thats it.

[sonsal]

oscalima, indigo will consider you if you get the rating by your own.
Its completely different process, however you have to go through your cass again which i think its really tough and should not be considered in part of the process if one is rated.

[NZNPH]

@Oscalima and @jehan check your pm

[cyrilroy21]

A lot of posts here keep asking for the questions asked for the written exam

I am quite interested in the questions asked during the interview as the interview is pretty much where you make or break it ( you can always give the written again )

So those of you who made it to the interview stage could start posting the questions asked for the interview ?

We can also start making a Question Bank of the interview questions ?

Also any suggestions / tips for interview ?

[Johny Boy]

Looks like newly recruited agent of an JAA based TRTO is on roll in this thread:E:E

[Oscalima]

HI
I did went to the indigo office a couple of times but was never allowed to enter their premises .I told the guard at the gate about my situation but he was adamant to send me inside.I even tried to talk to Capt.Patrick but was always turned down .They just put your call on hold and the call disconnects after some time.I make it a point to call them daily but still couldn't get through to Capt.Patrick or even some one in the HR.
Seriously I have no clue why i was rejected in the interview .According to me my interview was really good.I asked Parul about the reason but she told me that its Indigo's decision and she doesn't knows the reason for not selecting me.

[Oscalima]

HI,
Can you please tell me where did you get this information that Indigo will consider me once I get my CPL endorsed with A320.And is this really true or did you just heard it from someone.

[novembercharlie]

hey can anyone send me the indigo question bank 2 on [email protected]??

thanks.

[nainjet]

Does anyone know where is the exam happening this July in Delhi ?

[critical]

Guys has anyone got the mail disclosing Venue and date? If not,,then when are they telling us,,after 29th???

[vivekh]

they will probably send hall tickets tomorrow onwards. i really doubt anyone will be working over the weekend just for our sake :P

[capt.ace]

i doubt that as today i received mail from upendranath regarding confirmation.and yes its on weekend :ok:

[vivekh]

oh then thats brilliant! hope they send the hall tickets too. :suspect:

[critical]

TRUE!! But so many mails,,confirmation,,this n that, till now. And yet we dont have infromation that matters. Bit strange. Anyways good luck to us:ok:

[critical]

Thanks man,,nothing like to share a laugh, if not question bank 1 or 2!!! haha or whatever all asking for. (including me) :rolleyes:

[novembercharlie]

hey did anyone get the indigo question bank2 or any other question bank?? if yes can you mail it to me on [email protected] ??..will really appreciate it..thanks..

[ilsdme28]

Please stop whining about question banks , there are enough questions in the thread to give an idea of the kind of questions that will be expected , it seems there is a feeling around that question banks are a sure shot and short cut method to crack the Indigo written := especially the most "wanted" QB2 , if that's the case kindly come out of these delusions and start studying . Exam questions change all the time and only 5-10 (max)
will be repeated .

[planeboy_777]

Capt. Upendranath bharti once sent me the confirmation mail on monday at 0125 AM...lol
all the CAE guys out there are very unpredictable..

on 8th of this month they F:mad::mad::mad:n told me to cancel my tickets to delhi which was on 9th,
Reason being that they shifted to bangalore
i lost around 2 grands cancelling my tickets.


on 13th when i was in Bangalore for my CASS they told me that my Interview is on 15th but its not conirmed:ugh::ugh::ugh:......she said dont book you tickets now

on 14th morning i recieved an e-mail that i have my interview tommorrow m orning:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
i was like come-on man it's not my birthday today stop giving me surprises now!!!lol

and furthermore there was one guy who spent 16 grands on one way trip from bangalore-delhi that day.:eek::eek::eek:

i spoke to capt Upendranath that day regarding this
he gave a funny statement that you are a pilot now, pilots never travel by train...

guys appearing this time please be ready with your money to go to Bangalore or Delhi at any time.

[nityam]

parkland hotel, nehru place... New Delhi... just got a confirmation about the venue details from Mr. Upendranath

[Spitfire88]

@nityam

what date did u get??

[boeing787dreamliner]

@nityam...
At what time you received the email from capt. upendranath ?

[critical]

what about hall ticket and date? Dont tell me they are going to tell that in another mail, haha. or are they? :eek:
are they still choosing whom to call or reject? if not then why are they sending out mails 1 by 1. Just curious,,anyways good luck pals:ok:

[planeboy_777]

Dear Candidate,
This is to inform you that you have cleared the IndiGo interview held in Gurgoan.

[roshanpoojary]

WOW! Congratulations Planeboy_777

So Indigo doesn't conduct IPT and pre-recruitment medicals or are you done with it?

PS:- When will i get the hall ticket :-( and i edited this post 3 times due typo. I have lost my mind.

[Aviator4u]

Cleared!!!!!!!!!! yohooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[duddysingh]

got the call letter for 28th...:ok:

[aroumika]

@guys who got the call letter
is the cool-off period still the same i.e. 3 months?

@planeboy_777
congratulations, well done! can you please shed some light on what kind of questions were asked, how long your interview was, the panel that took your interview, and other relevant details etc? thanks :)

[capt.ace]

[aviator380]

I had a word with Parul in the evening around 7PM IST and she said that we can expect our hall tickets tonight and tomorrow as well. BTW even I didnt get the hall ticket as well. All the guys who didnt get the hall ticket today will definitely get it tomorrow. Dont worry and study hard. Best of luck to all of you........ :)

[novembercharlie]

even i didn't get the hall ticket yet..do we need to call them up or should we wait?? i think they have to sent it to only those ppl who have their exam on 28th..??

[nishant9034]

even i haven't got the hall ticket yet .....please guys let us know if any one gets the hall ticket for 29th ....i stay in mumbai have a train ticket booked for today now confused whether leave or not ....:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confu sed::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confu sed::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused

[critical]

I havnt got it either. This is crazy,,i gotta travel to delhi too. But,,i just cant believe ,,for them to be so careless. This is nuts!!!:confused:

[phul_tempo]

That's the way Indigo will treat you, even after the LOI, until you join them officially.
Cheers

[lesternoronha]

tried calling them up no answers.....all we can do is wait now i guess....:ugh::mad:

[unicorn87]

Hi,

I too cleared my written n flunked in the intrvw back in 2008. So does that mean i can Never apply for Indigo ever again? I have heard that for such ppl who cudn clr intervws they dnt need to give writns again bt will b directly called for intrvw.. I dnt knw how much of it is true.. Got any clue abt this?

Awaiting your reply!!

[novembercharlie]

i don't think so they are gonna send us the e-mail anymore..maybe they are conducting it only on 28th..:bored:{

[flyhigh27]

Hey can anyone help me with the answers to the following...
1. (this is from indigo question bank 1)
Any acceleration in climb, with a constant power setting:
A) decreases the rate of climb and the angle of climb
B) improves the rate of climb if the airspeed is below VY
C) improves the climb gradient if the airspeed is below VX
D) decreases rate of climb and increase angle of climb


2. An aircraft heading 325° (M) has an ADF reading of 330° Relative. The heading to steer to intercept the 280° track inbound to the NDB at 50° is:
A) 340(M)
B) 330(M)
C) 310(M)
D) 320(M)

3. At 0900 hrs relative brg of NDB is 045 and at 0910 hrs relative brg is 090. if Ground speed is 150 knots, what is the distance of aircraft from beacon????

4. An aircraft pinpoints itself at 300 nm from destination at 0800 hrs. Gnd Speed is 180 kts. it is required to delay its ETA by 15 mins. After how much time and what distance should the speed be reduced to 150 kts.


Help would be appreciated, also if someone can explain how to solve.
thanks

[critical]

dude lets not get down,,lets see till evening. The guys who got it for 28th,, received hall ticket yesterday evening itself. So assuming we are on 29th..we ill get.. should get it by today evening. Even though all this situation is highly fishy and weird and unprofessional. :confused: :ugh: anyways good luck

[vivekh]

@flyhigh27

1) To accelerate in a climb, without increasing the power setting, the only way will be to lower the nose. This will lead to a decrease in ROC and also angle of climb. Hence answer A.


2) A/c is HDG 325. NDB is on relative bearing 330. Hence the QDM to NDB is 295 i.e. radial 115 from NDB. To track inbound on 280 means intercept radial 100 inbound to NDB. For this we have to turn right. To intercept at angle 50 would mean heading 280+50 = 330.

3) This is a sum of 'doubling the angle at the bow'. Basically the angle to the NDB is increased fromo 45 to 90 degrees. This forms a 45-45-90 isoceles triangle, so the distance travelled to double the angle (150 x (10/60) = 25 Nm) is the same as the distance from beacon when it is abeam. So the answer is 25Nm. Difficult to explain here without a diagram, but I hope you get the idea.

4) I find the easiest way to do this is with algebraic equation because it is fool proof and I am comfortable with them, but there are simpler ways. In this case you would assume x to the distance you would reduce speed and form algebraic equations to solve for x. Is the answer 75nm/25 mins from start?

Hope this has helped. If I am wrong, someone please correct me, for my own benefit atleast. :ok:

[errordetector]

I have just got a mail from Capt Upendranath for the 29th July exam.....Started to get really nervous now....Best of luck to everyone appearing for both the July exams.;);););)

[guitarboy]

Hey guys can you please list all the email addresses of the CaE guys.

Requests emails of the following.

Sandra Pinto
Capt. Upendranath

Anyone else from who any indigo Exam related email has been forwarded to you.

Thanks guys.

[Kunwar K Chhibber]

hi guys i need some help on the indigo exams
as to where to take the classes from and which books to study can anyone please help me out on this ????

[flyhigh27]

thanks...

Hello people can u please help me with these:
1. Given True track= 352 degrees, variation=11 W, deviation=-5 and drift- 10 S.
what would be the compass heading????

2. when acknowledging mode and code,pilot needs to:
a.acknowledge mode only. b. mode and code both

3.the procedure for an aircraft that suffers comm failure during an IFR flt in VFR condition is:
a. proceed direct to its destination
b. maintain last cleared level and speed for 20 mins and then continue in accordance wid flt plan
c. continue to fly in vmc, land at nearest aerodrome, report its arrival.

4. At medium latitude, coriolis force experienced is:
a.7.5 degrees to the rgt
b. 15 degrees to left
c. 7.5 degrees to lft
d. 10.5 degrees to rgt


thanks.

[vivekh]

@flyhigh27

1) Simple CDMVT sum. Compass hdg in nil wind comes to 008deg. So for compensating 10deg Starboard drift, we need a compass heading of 358deg.

2) Mode & Code both

3) Radio failure of IFR flight in VFR conditions - land at nearest aerodrome and report nearest ATC unit.

4) If in the question you are talking about the Northern hemisphere, then the answer is 10.5deg right. Med lats ~ 45deg. So Coriolis force = 15sin45 ~ 10.5deg. Since it is northern hemisphere, it will be to the right.

:ok:

[massblink]

Q.on a particular take off you can accept upto 10 kts tailwind.the runway qdm is 047 the variation is 17E and the ATIS gives the wind direction as 210.what is the max wind strength you can accept?
a 18kts
b 11kts
c 8kts
d 4kts
the answer given is b 11kts...but i cant figur how to work this question out

[ilsdme28]

difference between r/w qdm and w/d is almost 160
work backwards (t/w is given by cos component)
i)18 * cos 160 =17 (max=10) hence no
ii)11*cos 160 = 10 (acceptable)

[flyhigh27]

for question 1 above (CDMVT)
Given True track= 352 degrees, variation=11 W, deviation=-5 and drift- 10 S.
what would be the compass heading????



TRUE TRACK is given
drift is diff b/w hdg and track.
therefore, hdg(T)= 342
then applying variation and deviation,
compass hdg= 348

I am not sure, I did it this way, jst wanna confirm is it right or not.

[flyhigh27]

What is the semi circular rule to choose altitude to fly!!!

[vivekh]

You can either apply drift to the true track to get true heading and then find the compass heading OR you can find the 'compass track' :} and then apply drift correction to get the compass heading. Both ways work fine.

I think the answer is still 358. The value of variation is 11W, so from True Hdg of 342, we get magnetic hdg 353deg, then the deviation is -5 = 5W, which means compass heading is 358deg.

Negative value of variation/dev is west, positive value is east.

[lesternoronha]

the method u have applied will give u the same result as vivekh
its like saying A+B-C or A-C+B
i believe there is and error in the calculation made:}
342(T) is what u have gotten applying drift rightly so,
then u apply variation of 11W u get 353(M)
then u apply deviation of -5 (which is also west) u get 358(C)
cheers.....:O again correct me if im wrong...

[vivekh]

Semi circular rule:

Magnetic track 000 to 179 - Odd FLs 190,210,230, etc
Magnetic track 180 to 359 - Even FLs 200,220,240,etc.

Thing to remember is that it applies to magnetic track and not magnetic heading. So for a heading of 005deg with 15 degrees port drift, you will fly an even flight level, since your mag track is 350deg.

[flyhigh27]

thanks..
I actually thought negative meant east.:ugh:

abt semicircular rule,can u plz confirm- its starts from what FL and upto what FL.
and also please tell about RVSM.

thanks a lot, u r a great help!!!!

[vivekh]

For Non RVSM airspaces:

From transition level to FL290 - every 1000ft is a FL. Eg. 260,270,280...
From FL290 upwards - every 2000ft is a FL. Eg. FL 310, FL330, FL350...

For RVSM airspaces:

From transition level to FL290 - every 1000ft is a FL. Eg. 260,270,280...
From FL290 to FL 410 - every 1000ft is a FL. Eg. FL 300, FL310, FL320...
From FL410 upwards - every 2000ft is a FL. Eg. FL 430, FL450, FL470...

Are you giving the July attempt? When is your exam?

180-359: EVEN THOUSANDS UPTO FL280
THEREAFTER ODD THOUSANDS 310,350,390


RVSM:
REDUCED SEPARTION FROM 2000' TO 1000' ABOVE FL290
000-179: ODD THOUSANDS
180-359: EVEN THOUSANDS

[flyon777]

@vivekh and @flyhigh 27

hi..i think correct answer for your forth ques will be 287 dme and 1hr 54 min. even i am unsure about it ..but i guess we'll go bout it as..required speed is 150 kts(given),and required eta is 0955(actual eta-0940 adding 15mins to it)

so dist to cover for this is 1hr 55 min/150 kts...i.e 287 nm.with this u'll get d dist

heyyyyy....can anyone plzzzzzzzzzz..send me d question bank of indigo exam....

[PP351]

guys how was the exam today??? any reviews? how many cleared??

[HuNg_sTaRt]

How was the paper??? How was d topic wise segration?? thanks
@PP351 did u appear this time??

[PP351]

nope mate!! if i had,i would have put every bit of detail of the exam.

[stalwart2010]

Paper mostly had Human Performance questions,lots of nav numericals(CDMVT,drift,Departure),Turning errors in Magnetic Compass,About 5 questions on CG,Find slant rage DME 2 numericals,Met-steam fog,lapse rate(basic questions),Regs basics about 7 questions-Visibilty,SSR codes,Ground Air Light signals.

Some of the Human Perf Questions I can recollect

Dry air is a mixture of gases. Their volume percentage is about:[/B]
21% oxygen,78% nitrogen, 1% other gases.

Oxygen, combined with haemoglobin in blood is transported by:
red blood cells

The heart muscle is supplied with blood from
the coronary arteries.

Inhaling carbon monoxide can be extremely dangerous during flying. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?
Carbon monoxide is odourless and cannot be smelled.

The proprioceptive senses (Seat of-the-Pants-Sense):
give wrong information, when outside visual reference is lost

The purpose of the semicircular canals
Sense angular acceleration

With vertigo the instrument-panel seems to tumble . This is due to
the Coriolis effect in the semicircular canals

Although we have a field of vision of more than 180° it is important during flight to use the scan ning technique, because:
only in the foveal area resolution is good enough to see an object clearly

When a pilot is starring at an isolated stationary light for several seconds in the dark he might get the illusion that:
the light is moving

The relationship between arousal and flying performance is
approximately the form of an inverted U

[duddysingh]

@dg737
appreciate ur effort.i know it was basic and simple test and as far as i know i'd marked almost correct answers but didn't able to clear.:(

[steamhammer]

guys i m in a fix......i appeared for the indigo written in the month of march and was unsuccessful....i payed 375$ for the march attempt....but now iv cleared the 29 july attempt....do i again have to pay 375 $ for the CASS....i tried emailing UB and spinto but no reply....GUYS Please Help...375 $ is a lot of green..:eek::ugh:

[duddysingh]

some questions from 28th july some are similar to the exam questions not exactly same as in exam.

[TheEagle]

@steamhammer
i am in the same situation and as far as i know u hv to pay again.

[Aviator4u]

u need to pay again. I had appeared for december attempt and couldnot clear it but I cleared the june attempt. I had to pay $375 again.:ugh:.They will not let u appear for further stages unless u pay them.

[lesternoronha]

hey i had passed on the 29th of july.....but i havent recieved the mail regarding the payment that has to be made....has anyone recieved the mail from capt upendranath after the exam????

[lesternoronha]

max distance between VOR and DME for it to be freq paired...ans was
600 m
there were quite a few questions on human performance...
there was one on andersons model
another one was if you stare at the light which reflects of your propeller blade how does it affect you..the ans was spatial disorientation and nausea...
there was also a question on cardiac output....you had to calculate it....
the regs questions were straight up stuff really easy..transponder codes and IFR min alt....
there a few questions on convergency and departure
principles of flight questions were thinkers...a few were easy as well
there were about 6 questions on RT..basic radio chatter...like the Question 5 we had during our RT part 1...where you had to convert noral english to radio terminology...
this is all i have for now...sorry i dont have more...the exam was a blur...that is the thing you have solve fast...100 quest in 2 hrs is not easy...one tip is read fast...dont waste any time...i took my paper down to the last 30 secs...the paper is easy but long...
all the best hope this gives you some kinda help....:8

@AVIATROZ
Sorry to be rude but,
this is forum for discussion and not answering the questions which you are
supposed to know.If you want to know more about something then come up with your answer and explain why you think that is correct,if its wrong i am sure people,including me, will help you out.Say No to Spoonfeeding!
Thanks,

[kapoor.varun]

i too searched askin for the same question and it started with the errors in "ace the technical exam startin from formulae for lift... its got good questions and also SOME write ans but you cant depend on them..... thought ATPL manuals are the referance books from now on .....

anything else. you got in mind , let me know too...

[kapoor.varun]

[AVIATROZ]

@ attitude flying........
Actually i m certainly not looking for spoon feeding.......but i kinda got stuck with these 2 questions......tried my best to look for them on internet and other material i could refer to but was not able...find anything satisfactory..........
i think i lack....the concept with regards to these..............so just though ....why not to ask my aviator mates to help me out in solving these questions....

-----though hav no idea abt the RPL...
abt the secound question i feel it should be

1013.25-985=28 mb.......28*30=847 feet.....
but answer is 160 feet........so don`t knw hw to get this question right...

it wud b really help full if anyone can help

thanks

[9FLYJET9]

bro the question mentioned above is the only question they ask on RPL, so just remember that. and RPL is repetitive flight plan.

and i think you can always ask questions and people should answer if they know them. its always good to discuss stuff and this is the best place to do it.

just do not bother about people who discourage it, like that guy above hehe..
anyone having problems may kindly quit and start a new thread, hehe.

[9FLYJET9]

and no need to say sorry to anyone. chill.

remember:

A repetitive flight plan (RPL) is a flight plan related to a series of frequently recurring, regularly operated individual flights with identical basic features, submitted by an operator for retention and repetitive use by ATS units. (ICAO Annex 2: Rules of the Air)
RPLs are routinely used by most airlines for regular scheduled flights which operate over the same route at least once a week.
Further Reading

ICAO Annex 11 Chapter 3.

the question above is a very specific question on rpl.

[echo.mike.india]

There is a published table to determine the flight level if we know the qnh and transition altitude...
According to table here with qnh being 985 and TA being 3000' the transition level comes out to be 4000...
Calculating further we wil get the difference between 1013 and 985 is 840'

So the transition layer is difference between 4000-(3000+840)=160

I got the table from wikipedia ..searching for transition altitude....

[wings of fire]

Hey guys .could u please help me in solving the below questions. These r from oxford radio aids- vor chapter


Q1) Assuming the maximum likely error in vor to be 5.5 degree, what is the maximum distance apart that beacons can be situated on the centreline of the u.k airwayin order that an aircraft can guarantee remaining within the airway boundary?
a) 54.5 Nm
b) 109 NM
c) 66 Nm
d) 132 Nm

Q2) An aircraft is homing towards VOR which marks the centreline of an airway. The beacon is 100 Nm distant. If the pilot had the airway QDM set on the OBS what deflection of the deviation indicator would be given if the aircraft was on the boundary of the airway? Assume that 1 dot equals 2 degrees.
a) 3 dots
b) 2 dots
c) 2.5 dots
d) 1.5 dots

Q3) Assuming an accuracy of + / - 5.5 degree, the maximum spacing of 2 vor’s defining the centreline of an airway, that would ensure no aircraft could be outside the airway is;
a) 54 Nm
b) 51 nm
c) 109 nm
d) 132 nm

Q4)what is the theoretical maximum range that an aircraft at FL 420 will obtain from a vor beacon situated at 400 feet above msl?
a) 225 nm
b) 256 nm
c) 281 nm
d) 257 nm

[AVIATROZ]

thanks a lot friends.....it was really helpful....

[flyhigh27]

Hey guys,
those of u who cleared Indigo Writtens on 28th and 29th July, did u make the 375$ payment??? any further updates on the same???

[cvchetan]

Cleared on 29th. made payment. No response from them yet.

[Aviator09]

@ wings of fire

1. The airways in U.K. Airways are maximum 5 nm either side.
Using, 1 in 60 formula, Angle= S/R * 60
i.e. 5.5= 5/R *60 ,R = 54.54 NM
The Maximum distance implies the diameter, Hence 2 X 54.54= 109 NM (B)

2. The same formula, R= 100 nm, S= 5nm

Angle= 5/100 *60 = 3 degree
Since, 1 dot is equal to 2 degree.It would be 1.5 dots. (D)

3. Entirely the same as 1. Just that there's a change of language. (C)

4. Range= 1.25 sq.root height of Aircraft + 1.25 sq.root height of VOR
= 1.25 ( sq.root 42000 + sq.root 400)
=281 NM (C)

[flyhigh27]

hii
when did u make the payment???
even i cleared on 29th but cudnt make the payment on mon so did it today....bt will mail them the receipt by late eve only!

[fly.low]

i cleared on 29th as well and made the payement today .i.e 2nd aug.
i have even e-mailed the receipt to sandra but no replies

[yash]

Okay guys for all of you getting ready for your CASS . I appeared in June and have cleared . . I am posting details which i think will help you :

CASS Assessment is 4 exercises in total , the order may vary :
1.Sim
2.English test
3.HR interview
4.Personality Questionnaire

For sim go through the booklet you will receive thoroughly so you are familiar . The guys over there are very helpful and give you ample time to practice so its not a worry .

English test is not a worry either , i mean if you are scared about clearing a simple English test then well god save the Indian skies when you fly .

Personal interview - Its more of a healthy discussions where general questions are asked about you . I dont mind posting the questions but it wont help you as you will prepare the answers and mug up the answers which is not the right way , the guys over there are skilled enough to see who is honest and who is not .

The KEY to SUCCESS is CONFIDENCE ( NOT OVER NOT UNDER )

Get done with this stage and then worry for GD and other things .
Hope it helps
Plz do not PM me regarding above :=
All the best :ok:

[ecks]

Hi friends ,
Any idea about when the next indigo exam is ? And how to receive a call for written .
I hav previously applied in indigo but havnt received any call . I got my IR laspe in July.

[flyhigh27]

thanks for all the info regarding CASS.

Just wanted to know after these four CASS stages...what remains???
Is there a GD and or medical or something else?????

[wings of fire]

thanks for your reply buddy.

however answer to the 4 rth question is given 225 Nm in the book.(Even I was confused looking at the answer.) Is it a printing mistake or can there be any suitable explanation

It is question number 8 in Vor chapter.

[wings of fire]

Q 18) A Vor is providing satisfactory signals in accordance with ICAO specifications, to an aircraft within DOC at 42500 feet, groundspeed 480 knots.The approximate time that the a/c is in cone of confusion is :

a) 1.75 mins
b)1.50 mins
c)2 mins
d)3 mins

[Aviator09]

@ wings of fire
The 4th question has some error, everytime I d these questions, the answer always difffer. So, can't really say if you should mug up the answer or just follow the formula.

[Aviator09]

Q18 Theory mentioned in VOR states about the cone of confusion angle to be 50 Degree. Hence, Tan 50 = P/B
Here, P = Radius of Cone = ?
B= 42500 Ft =6.99 Km
Substitute the values in the equation, Tan50 = P/6.99= 8.33Nm

To calculate the time aircraft remains in the cone of confusion, Diameter=2R

Time= Distance/GS. i.e. 2 X 8.33 / 480 =0.034 Hour.
COnvert it into minutes, The answer is approx 2 Minutes. (C)

:ok:

[wings of fire]

Thanks bud. That was very prompt of you. am sure u will go a long way ahead.
With regards to Q8 in Vor chapter(where the answer is 225 Nm)- I have made a few observations.

Chech out Q4, 13 and 22, they all r of similar types to Q8. In those 3 questions the formula applies of 1.25*(root of Ht + root of Hr) - but the altitudes are FL 360, FL 250 , Fl 180 respectively - all of which are less than 36090 feet. Whereas in Q8 aircraft is at Fl 420 i.e at tropopause- where temp. is constant. So can there be any reason or theory u can deduce.

I have read radio waves get affected by temperature inversion.
Eg: in temperature inversion VHF waves get reflected back to earth and travel in form of multi hop propagation and not line of sight

[cvchetan]

Paid on 1st august, sent them receipt, and today got instructions for the 1st part of stage 2, the questionnaire of 277 questions.

[yash]

@flyhigh27

After the CASS assessement you have your GD and Final Interview all in one day .

[LieDetector]

all the best guys!

This was the last written for this year, next will be conducted by CAE early next year.

[lesternoronha]

are u sure about this exam being the last this yr......that will really suck...all the best to all the guys who cleared it....make the best of it!!!:ok:

[Uniform.]

@lesternoronha

WHT??? :ooh:

may i knw from where did u get this info.?

[LieDetector]

yes from now on the exam will be every 3 months starting end of this year or early next.

[lesternoronha]

well they have that 3 month cool off period anyways....waited so many yrs whats a few more months??

[9FLYJET9]

Dude who told you that there will not be an an exam in August.
Are you sure about it.
Hope that is not true.
Please.

[sukhoi30mki]

Did anyone get confirmation from CAE that there will be no more exams conducted this year, guys going for CASS please confirm

[9FLYJET9]

@ lie detector: who told you that this was the last for this year ? please post the reply asap.would appreciate the help.

[wings of fire]

The below are some questions from Oxford instrumentation book - objective revision 4 and 5.

Q1) An a/c is descending at a contant mach number. If the a/c is descending through an inversion layer, the RAS will:

a)remain constant
b)increase
c)decrease
d)decrease then decrease more slowly

Answer is b) increase.
however during descent in inversion, temp decreases at lower altitude. so, LSS decreases. since M.no = (TAS / LSS), therefore TAS should also decrease, in order for M.No to remain constant.
Yes, density increases at lower altitudes.
Now, RAS=(1/2)*density*(TAS squared).
Therefore effect of decreasing TAS is more, then increase of density.
so answer should be c) decrease.
Can anyone explain?

Q2)A perfectly frictionless DI, is corrected to give zero drift on the ground at 30 degree north. The DI is set to read 100 degree in an a/c stationary on the ground in latitude 45 degree north. The reading after 45 mins will be:

a) 92.33 degree
b)102.50 degree
c)97.78 degree
d) 103.75 degree

Q3) with constant drift during flight, the a/c heading will:

a)increase by more than 10 degree
b)decrease by less than 10 degree
c)increase by less than 10 degree
d)remain constant

Answer is b). what;s the logic?

[HuNg_sTaRt]

TAS = CAS + DE (density error) and Mach no. = TAS/LSS

Mach no. is constant (given). So TAS is constant.

Now, since the a/c is descending through inversion layer the temp will decrease an so will density error and to keep TAS constant(by d fromula)....CAS will increase!!!:ok::ok::ok:

[747dash8]

I had appeared for the june assessment.....so according to the 3 months cool off period.....when am i applicable again ?
September or October ?

And another question.......Is it mandatory to have ME IR current for appearing in the exam ?

[aviatepilot]

dude find out first if the exams are gonna be conducted or not.....As quoted by someone the exams r gonna be now next yr only....

[wings of fire]

Quote: Mach no. is constant (given). So TAS is constant.

LSS=38.95*root of temp(in kelvin)

since M.no = TAS / LSS , Therefore LSS changes with decreasing temp. Hence TAS also changes . It can't be constant.

Any one else can explain.

[747dash8]

I read that post by LieDetector.......but since there is no such announcement on either Indigo or CAE's website.......m trying to think positive....
Kindly clear my doubts in this matter if you can.....

[Aviator09]

wings of fire

Q2. Find the real drift due to mechanical imperfections @ 30 N which comes to be 7.5 degree/hour increasing.
total drift=Real Drift + Apparent Drift i.e. 0= RD + 15 sin 30
0= 7.5/hr Increasing + 7.5/hr dec

Now, this gyro is taken to 45N, RD will remain same, no matter what,
Hence, Total Drift= 7.5/hr inc + 15 sin45
= 3.10 degree/hr decreasing

gyro stays here for 45 minutes, so 3.10/hr when computed for 45 minutes comes to be,2.32 Degree/ hour decreasing.

Alteration to the hdg. will be 100-2.32=97.67 degree. (c)

Is the answer correct??

[AAC2011]

as the temp decrease the local speen of sound reduce
you see the inversion the lss decrease as the a/c descend
Now comes the basic maths , as the denominater decrease to keep the full factor constant (mac no.) we have to increase the TAS and in attampt to increase tas ras increase




ahy update for the indigo coming exam , please inform


Q2, 3 do you have the answer and its justification

[fly.low]

has anybody been called for cass yet, who passed on 29th july,2011?

[DJ Flyboy]

Now comes the basic maths , as the denominater decrease to keep the full factor constant (mac no.) we have to increase the TAS and in attampt to increase tas ras increase
You may want to reconsider that..if the denominator decreases..the numerator also has to decrease to keep the fraction constant..here let me make it simple (not that its complicated!).. consider..20/10=2
now if you reduce 10 to 5 then you also have to reduce 20 to 10, 10/5=2

:8:p:ok:

Now for the answer..cas does increase according to an online flt computer..but dont ask me how..stumped on this one..can anybody explain why cas increases while descending through an inversion layer with constant mach?

And the most basic question..is there going to be an August exam???

[johney_flying_high]

A warm hello to every1 reading this...
Could someone please provide me the solution of the following question:

What is the distance in kilometres from 49° S 180° E/W to 58° S 180º E/W?:confused:

[flyhigh27]

Hello everyone
all those who cleared the written assessment on 28th or 29th, any news/updates about the CASS?
please pass on the info...


thanks

[planeboy_777]

What is the distance in kilometres from 49° S 180° E/W to 58° S 180º E/W?

Latitude equally spaced----1deg---60NM so 9deg is 540NM--540x1.852----1000.08KM


:ok::ok::ok:

[boeing787dreamliner]

can anybody please confirm about the august exam of indigo ..

[CaptGalaxy]

Hi All,

Does anybody have the answer key to the Instrumentation book from Oxford aviation services ATPL?
kindly pass on if you do.

thankyou,
P

[CaptGalaxy]

Q1) An a/c is descending at a contant mach number. If the a/c is descending through an inversion layer, the RAS will:

a)remain constant
b)increase
c)decrease
d)decrease then decrease more slowly

Answer is b) increase.
however during descent in inversion, temp decreases at lower altitude. so, LSS decreases. since M.no = (TAS / LSS), therefore TAS should also decrease, in order for M.No to remain constant.
Yes, density increases at lower altitudes.
Now, RAS=(1/2)*density*(TAS squared).
Therefore effect of decreasing TAS is more, then increase of density.
so answer should be c) decrease.
Can anyone explain?

the formula you have put there for RAS is not right, 1/2(rho)v^2 is the formula for the dynamic pressure.

TAS=RAS + Density error.

In general, you can assume that the inversion doesnt make a difference to the CAS.
so, CAS increases in a descent and decreases in a climb with Mach constant.

cheers,
P

[wings of fire]

Perfecto .Full marks to u. My error was for 45 N latitude - I was calculating hourly real drift with 45 mins of ERW simultaneously. Thanks any idea for remaining 1 question

[wings of fire]

Buddy 1/2*rho * (v square) is formula of dynamic pressure- but that is also called indicated airspeed.

And since , RAS = IAS corrected for position error.

and position error is negligible. therefore we can safely say, RAS=IAS

Hence, RAS = 1/2* rho * (TAS squared)

and this is how we were taught , when i took classes from surinder sir.

Other students of sir, correct me if I am wrong

By the way, what's your email id

[CaptGalaxy]

Hi mate,
not sure about the classes, i havent had the chance to attend them. Just going by what i understood from Oxford books.
either way, the general idea is that as density increases CAS increases.

i was doing some reading on the same topic and found this, hope it helps.

Relation beween CAS, TAS, MN, Temp and pressure - ATP Forum (http://www.atpforum.eu/showthread.php?t=9915)

cheers,
P

[johney_flying_high]

Thanks planeboy 777,really appreciate it.:ok:

[TheEagle]

@wings of fire and @puneeth

EAS(without compressibility error EAS=CAS) and Mach number are related by:

EAS = M * LSS * sqrt(Ps / Pstd)

Where
Ps = static pressure
Pstd = standard pressure (1013.25 hPa)

This is the same equation I had for true airspeed, except with pressure ratio instead of temperature ratio. Consolidating the constants it becomes:

EAS = M * 20.78 * sqrt(Ps)

The point to note is that Equivalent airspeed is a function of mach number and pressure, temperature is irrelevant.

Reference: Relation beween CAS, TAS, MN, Temp and pressure - ATP Forum (http://www.atpforum.eu/showthread.php?t=9915)

[9FLYJET9]

August exam: Yes/ no ?
Any news.

[Aviator09]

TAS=RAS + Density error.

TAS= EAS + Density Error or RAS/CAS + Compressibility error + Density Error

Puneeth, You skipped one of the major errors.!

@ wings of fire
I'd get back to you as and when I solve those object revision questions and I derive the explanation behind that question.
Yes, you're correct when you say that CAS and RAS can be taken to be the same and hence the same formula too, 1/2 rho V squared. I took the same classes as you did. It has always worked for me, but cant still figure out the reason here.

[AVIATROZ]

Has anybody who cleared the july attempt 2011 got any reply from sandra regarding CASS.The only thing i got is the mail for adapt part 1and 2.:):)

[wings of fire]

Could anyone clarify about Mode 6 and 7 in EGPWS.

Mode 7 is for windshear alert below 1500 feet and gives windshear warning both during approach and takeoff.

similarly, Mode 6 gives bankangle warning. Is the bank angle warning only during approach or also during t/o?

i have been waiting from 3 months ........ sending mails to upender, sandra, parul and radhika for indigo exam roll no. but getting no respond
please guide me guys what do i do to get roll no. for next attempt
really hopeless with process of issuing roll no. :confused:

[3443 nautical miles]

I waited for one year....... Try to call them

[wings of fire]

I skipped a vital sentence from one of my earlier questions by mistake. I apologise. Here is the full question:

An INS equipped a/c flies from 56 N 20 W (waypoint 3) to 56 N 30 W (waypoint 4). With constant drift during flight the a/c heading will:

a) increase by more than 10 degree
b) decrease by less than 10 degree
c) increase by less than 10 degree
d) remain constant

Answer: b (How less than 10 degree?)

My explanation: Departure=335.516 NM

ERW comes to -12.435 degrees/ hr

TW = GS /60 * tan lat

How to calculate GS ?

[errordetector]

Does anyone have any idea about how many people got LOI among those who appeared for CASS and interview in June 2011 attempt?.........:confused::confused::confused:

[angmavrick]

Heyy PPl ...i havent been getting calls for the indigo assesment can any body provide number for parul huria or radhika where i can contact them ....or if any body has suggestions on whts the best way to get a call

[thearsenal]

definately not the last recruitment there may be a hiatus of a couple of months but definately not the last. they have one 320 being delivered every month for the next 4 years or so i've heard.

[planeboy_777]

they have one 320 being delivered every month for the next 4 years

1 A320 in 1 month till next 1 decade starting jan 2012. thats what Capt Saleem zhaeer said to us.

[TheEagle]

Dnt know which one is true but Mr Upendranath Bharati told us that fr evry a/c they need 15 pilots. So i dnt think recruitment will stop,it might be a bit delayed. Keep ur chin up guys.

[Uniform.]

Even i doubt July was the last attempt for this year, though Indigo has started cadet program, it will take more than a year atleast to hire those guys... and Indigo cant wait that much as they have a lot of requirement at present. :=

[duddysingh]

guys ..dont lose hope ..CAE exam will be there in coming months, may not be this month.. indigo has requirements they'll be keep hiring according to their expansion plans..58 a/c will be added to current 42 a/c fleet that will make it to 100 a/c upto 2016..so if 10 pilots per a/c that accounts about 580 pilots in next five years and from 2016 -2025 another 180 a/c will be added .so hiring is not going to stop..even cadet scheme can't fulfill all the requirements...So keep studying..dont believe in these rumors... someone who is hopeless playing dirty tricks to spread these kind of rumors.:=.!! ..:ok:

Q. assuming the maximum likely error in vor to be 5.5*,what is maximum distance apart that beacons can be situated on the centre line of a UK airways in order that an aircraft can guarantee remaining within the airways boundary?
a. 54.5 nm
b. 109nm
c. 66nm
d. 132nm

thanks for help

[TheEagle]

@cvchetan

@aviatroz

Q. assuming the maximum likely error in vor to be 5.5*,what is maximum distance apart that beacons can be situated on the centre line of a UK airways in order that an aircraft can guarantee remaining within the airways boundary?
a. 54.5 nm
b. 109nm
c. 66nm
d. 132nm


The way i understand it is:

An airway is 10nm wide and the Vor is on the middle so its 5nm either side of the Vor.

The error is 5.5* so we cn use the Track Error(1 in 60 rule) formula.
TE= Distance off/Distance covered *60
We know the TE=5.5* and Max Dist off can be 5nm so it gives the Dist covered as 54.54( 5/5.5*60)

This means that with an error of 5.5* u can stay within the airways for sure till 54.5nm with one vor. At that point u need the signal from another vor wch cant be more than 54.5nm away with the same error. So total distance comes to 54.5+54.5=109nm.

[TheEagle]

@planeboy_777
Thanks Dude. Very booring bt atleast i cn cm bk the next day itself.

[cvchetan]

Hmmm.. I too cleared on the 29th... But no call as yet..

[TheEagle]

[echo.mike.india]

To appear for the INDIGO exams do we need instrument rating current or need not be....
plus IR should be on multi or single engine....
Thank you

[kapoor.varun]

@echo.mike.india

current MEIR

[guitarboy]

@kapoor.varun - Dude one needs MEIR yes but it need not be current, can be lapsed.

[echo.mike.india]

If theres anyone who has got a LOI shed some light on the Multi IR thing...
did those guys with lapsed IR got a call from indigo for the exams..
Please help guys..
Nad also if any one remembers if Jet airways asked for current IR on multi or single...
Thank you

[cyrilroy21]

@echomikeindia

I had asked the same question earlier in the thread

IndiGo just requires an ME-IR . It need not be current . Once you do your type rating you will get a new IR endorsed with it

Jet Airways does not even require a multi rating ( hence the huge competition for the written exam)

They do however require a Single Engine instrument rating but the rating need not be current :E

[aviatepilot]

they just need valid CPL MEIR
currency is not reqd at least for giving the exams...don't know abt the LOI

[echo.mike.india]

Thank you every one...
Thank you very much

[planeboy_777]

guys don't worry, only CPL should be valid
when you go for your A320 TR your IR will obviously get renewed so no worries.

[beawer]

Anyone from the june batch who has the LOI but no details on when and where the Type Rating would be?

[aadityaslg]

planeboy_777 banned!

[pilot in progress]

guys any news of august attempt...

[LieDetector]

There will be no August attempt or september and october for that matter, they have enough pilots for now(fresh recruits + NACIL + Kingfisher).

Hiring shall resume end of this year or early next.

[smurf84]

Can I take that from a reliable source?

[LieDetector]

You can just wait and watch

:}

[sonsal]

indigo are not gonna have enough pilots for coming 10 years..... 1 aircraft per month so 10 pilots needed every month....they are constantly having type rated exam every alternate month.... But i am not sure about this CAE process right now.
Pilots are flying like 90-95 hours a month....for all who gets selected in Indigo would have a very bright future, Capt in 3 years if you have the capability...
Best airline to work with in India according to my knowns working there....:ok:

[CAT3_DUAL]

There will be no August attempt or september and october for that matter, they have enough pilots for now(fresh recruits + NACIL + Kingfisher).


+ IndiGo Cadets after around 2013
Hence the exam will be held only Thrice a year from 2012.

[cyrilroy21]

+ Existing co pilot upgrade to captains means more vacancies :E

[cvchetan]

People done with CASS.. any things worth mentioning so that others can take such points to help themselves??

[CAT3_DUAL]

They say it'll be a casual interview in CASS but make sure you prepare well enough because in the final stage interview they ask questions based on your CASS report.
If you screw your CASS interview your gone.
I'm not discouraging you but giving you an advice.
So take it as an advice

[cyrilroy21]

WHat does your CASS report consist of ?
