help regarding meteorology questions
I need help regarding solving of these questions,i am not able to get the concept to solve these meteorology problem,i would really appreciate if some one could help me out in these concepts
Q1. MSA given as 12000ft, flying over mountains in temperatures +9*c ,QNH set as 1023.what will the true altitude when 12000 ft is reached?
a. 11,940

1) When the temp. at a give alt is not ISA you need to make corrections to the indicated altitude to get True altitude.
The correction is for every 10*C above/below ISA you need to apply (add/sub) a correction of 4% to the Indicated altitude to get the true altitude.
ISA dev at 12000 ft = actual (9*C) - ISA (-9*C) = 9+9 = 18*C
10*C= 4% correction so 18*C = 7.2 % correction
7.2% of 12000 = 864ft
So since the temp at the given altitude is above ISA add the correction of 864ft to the indicated altitude of 12,000ft.
So the answer is 12,000+864 = 12,864ft.
3) Again similar to Q no.1. Since ISA deviation here is -10*C you will need to subtract 4% of 16000ft from16000ft which is 16000-640 = 15360.
Now since you are flying at FL 160 you will have set the altimeter setting as 1013.25. And your true altitude is based on your QNH which is 1003. So you will have to make an additional correction i.e 1003-1013 = -10 x 27 (1mb = 27ft) = -270
So finally true altitude = 15360-270 = 15090.
4) There are some fixed values given is some books as to the how the value of 1mb changes from S.L upto 40,000 ft.
From what I can recall for every 1 hpa the change in ht. varies like this:
@ S.L= 27ft, @ 2,000ft = 30ft, @20,000ft = 50ft and @ 40,000ft = 100ft
5500m = about 18,000 ft so the closest answer is 50ft.
Sorry about Q no.4.. I'm not really good at explaining stuff as you can see. I'm not able to explain it in words. Perhaps if I could draw I could explain it better. But I will try to put it in words and get back.

hello guys
i got cpl in 2009 and wants to give exam of indigo written ...already registered on their cae site and even mailed my resume to parul and radhika ...but still not getting a call for indigo written...its almost a year now applied to them.....please guys tell me how to contact indigo for appearing in their written test!@umang

Sir/Ma'am,
Your query has already been answered in this forum. Just go through the last 10-15 pages of this thread.
Nonetheless, email Ms. Parul Huria and Ms. Radhika once again. You can also write to them that you've been waiting for over a year now.
Secondly, now even Ms. Sandra Pinto replies on behalf of Pilot Provisioning. You can email her too on [email protected]
All the best.

A320 TR
hey guys, can anyone tell me how is the situation of A320 TR pilots,
How many pilots are indigo recruiting??
Is the recruitment going on every month then how many in an avg. are they recruiting?
What type of Qus. do they ask in there assessment? Specific/performance/regulations/navigation or CPL stuff??
Indigo gives any prefrence to CAE TR students over other schools like Simcentre or PanAm
Is it an necessary to the TR from CAE or we can do the TR from any reputed schools which is DGCA recognized?
I need answers of above questions..your reply is highly appreciated!

almost 40 appeared and 8 passed.
Human performance took toll on many guys. 12 questions and topics were stress, vigilance, motivation etc, those which were generally are not given so much attention.
Regs was a lil tricky but all covered by DGCA syllabus.

. FL 80, an OAT +06° C is measured. What will the temperature be at FL 130, if you consider the temperature gradient of the Standard Atmosphere?
can anyone solve this please
.do we have to apply the formula Tamb=OAT - TISA or directly do it with the 2 deg lapse rate...
