Grrr Workbook with excercises for UK CAA CAP 696/697/698

Hello
Does anybody know where can I get or buy a workbook with excercises to practice the graphs and tables from the UK CAA's CAP 696/697/698?
I am preparing for an exam that is referring to these docs and I am lacking professional workbook to practice.
Thanks!

@jimmy2times: Aviation Exam is an excellent way to practice and has loads of questions as well as detailed worked solutions. Got me through my ATPLs with flying colours!!

Thanks for that one. I checked it out. It indeed has plenty of questions.

But can anybody suggest me questions pertaining to the CAPs? Most importantly direct questions such as finding take off and landing distances etc.

jimmy2times, there should be around 50 or more questions in Aviation Exam if not more regarding the caps. Direct cap questions nearly identical to what you shall see on the day of the exam!

From what I can see in Flight Planning section of the PDF I downloaded (jarquestions.pdf) here http://www.electrocution.com/docs/jarquestions.pdf I don't see questions on the CAP graphs. Perhaps it is the wring file I am viewing?
Thanks!

@jimmy2times let's get it crystal clear that you are taking a JAA/EASA fixed wing ATPL or CPL examinations somewhere in Europe?

If this is the case then I thought your training provider would have provided sufficient material to cover and practice these manuals and you really need to have a hard/printed copy of them e.g. http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/CAP697.pdf will get you the Flight Planning manual.

Again assuming you are doing the ATPL(A) then there will be LOTS of questions related to these manuals in the 3 relevant exams and you must know your way round all of them.

Most students revise for these exams using one or two online databases be it Aviation Exam, ATPL Online or Bristol Ground School (BGS) (others are available) and they all do pretty much the same thing and there is usually a subscription depending on subjects & length of time required.

Hope this helps.

Just set some yourself. Get on NATS AIS, find a random airport to find the data, then go to the Met office site and get the METAR and Bob's your uncle, there's a question.
