Indigo Call letters for Freshers

[hinitin123]

people who have already appeared are also getting chance for the assessment. Its based on First come First serve basis.

check indigo website for CADET PILOT PROGRAM. they are still looking in and will continue to admit guys for cadet pilot program.

Met Question

Guys can anyone tell me which topics to study in met?

[Aviator_Prat]

Q) If Paris reports a wind of 16020kt on the metar, what wind velocity would you expect to encounter at a height of 2000 ft above the ground? (Ans: 19040kt)

Q) you are flying at FL 200. OAT is -40 degrees C and the pressure at sea level is 1003 hpa. what is the true altitude? (Ans: 19340ft)

Q) you plan a flight over a mountain range at a true altitude of 15000 ft/amsl. The air is 15 degrees C colder than ISA ,the pressure at the sea level is 1003 hpa. what indication must the altimeter(setting 1013.2hpa) read ? (Ans: 16230ft)

Ans 1. Surface winds in the NH are Backed(SH Veered) by 30 Degs & the speed reduces by 50% over land.
Backing is anticlockwise turning, Winds at 2000 ft will be 190/40Kts

Ans 2/3. Use the Formula:
TA = IA + (4 x IA/1000 x ISA Dev) + (27 x (QNH – Subscale))

I cant seem to get the answer for the 2nd ques tho (18540 ft) anybody?

The answer for the second question listed by aviator787 is incorrect.

A couple of questions:

Q1.NH wind at 2000ft 210/60. Thermal wind 20 knots. Lowest Mean temp : NW.
Find upper wind?

How do you solve ^^these numericals? What is the concept?

Q2. 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

Q3.For a single engine class B aeroplane, V2 may not be less than:
A) not applicable
B) 1.15Vs
C) 1.2Vs
D) 1.5Vs


Q4. Regarding take-off, the take-off decision speed V1:
A) Is always equal to VEF (Engine Failure speed)
B) Is an airspeed at which the aeroplane is airborne but below 35 ft and the pilot is assumed to have made a decision to continue or discontinue the take-off
C) Is the airspeed of the aeroplane upon reaching 35 feet above the take-off surface
D) Is the airspeed on the ground at which the pilot is assumed to have made a decision to continue or discontinue the take-off

Q5. 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

Q6.The stall speed of an aircraft will increase with:
(a) decrease in the load factor
(b) increase in the pitch attitude for straight and level
(c) increase in the all up weight of the aircraft

correction

thanks aviator prat for helping really appreciate there was a mistake in typing wrote 1003 hpa instead of 1033 hpa in 2nd question.

[Aviator_Prat]

Q2. 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
The only way we can accelerate in the climb at a constant power setting is to lower the nose, lowering the nose will decrease both the ROC & Angle Of Climb.

Q3.For a single engine class B aeroplane, V2 may not be less than:
A) not applicable
(V2 is the Speed at which the a/c becomes airborne safely with 1 engine Inop)
B) 1.15Vs
C) 1.2Vs
D) 1.5Vs


Q4. Regarding take-off, the take-off decision speed V1:
A) Is always equal to VEF (Engine Failure speed)
B) Is an airspeed at which the aeroplane is airborne but below 35 ft and the pilot is assumed to have made a decision to continue or discontinue the take-off
C) Is the airspeed of the aeroplane upon reaching 35 feet above the take-off surface
D) Is the airspeed on the ground at which the pilot is assumed to have made a decision to continue or discontinue the take-off

Q5. 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

Q6.The stall speed of an aircraft will increase with:
(a) decrease in the load factor
(b) increase in the pitch attitude for straight and level
(c) increase in the all up weight of the aircraft

Q1.NH wind at 2000ft 210/60. Thermal wind 20 knots. Lowest Mean temp : NW. Find upper wind?
Help anyone?

Correct me if I am wrong!

AP

[aniqua]

next attempt?

guys any idea if indigo is going to continue recruitment after 20 jan 2012 every month or is it goin to be once in 3 mnths?

[ankit9690]

hello. can you please explain the first question and the thermal winds ?

[hinitin123]

hi can any 1 gimme the answer for this Q. got a little confusion


Q1. When an altimeter is used for SSR it is always referenced to:
A) 1013.25 hPa
B) The pressure setting in use
C) QFE
D) QNH

3.An approximate equation for calculation conversion angle is:
A) CA=dlong x sin Lat. x sin Long.
B) CA=0,5 x dlat x sin Lat.
C) CA=(dlong-dlat) x 0,5.

[mgrandhi]

can anyone suggest me any budget hotels near CAE banglore and contact details if possible

tnx in advance

[hinitin123]

hi buddy i think somebody has given the hotel's name and no. in the post u will have to sort it out but m sure some1 has definitely put up the name . tc and good luck !!!

[LieDetector]

^^

Q1. A
Q2. A
Q3. D
Q4. A
Q5. C
Q6. A
Q7. B(Not too sure about this)

Nitin are you sitting for the exam on 11th,12th?
Do you know if they allow the CX2?

[Aviator_Prat]

5.Q. An aircraft is flying over sea.FL 100.True altitude 10000ft.local QNH 1003. What can you say about the airmass over which the aircraft is flying:
a. It is warmer than ISA
b. It is colder than ISA
c. Its average temperature is same as that of ISA
d.The information is not sufficient

I think Ans: A
P Alt if QNH(1003) is set = 9730 ft (FL100 1013=10000ft)
True Alt is more than P Alt which implies +ve ISA Deviation.
Correct me if im wrong!
The forum a few pages back says Cx2/Scientific calculators are allowed

AP

[AvIaTo]

Yes Cx2 and scientific calc's are allowed..

[abhimakam]

@ AP

Hi,

The ans is 'C'.
When T.alt== P.Alt it implies that the temp at that level is at ISA.

Regards
Abhi.

[SCPL]

How many questions on MET are asked usually?
I have heard usually 6-7 questions are asked.
Please share.

[Aviator_Prat]

@ Abhi
Ref: Met theory question [Archive] - PPRuNe Forums

FL are wrt 1013.25 & QNH = 1003

Rgds,
AP

[werido1100]

[alpha_victor_romeo]

@ all pprune-ers Thank you

Thank you all of you for putting in all the info on this forum. Really helped a lot for my exam !! yeah I cleared the exam yesterday. It was such a relief !! I wish all the best to all the pprune-ers out there. And guys don't worry exam is not that hard. It just requires you to put in the right effort. I shall be posting the questions or topics which I can recollect shortly.
Thank you All

Best Of Luck

AVR
