Yes guys as AVL998 mentioned there wer only 5 questions on Human performance n no questions from aerodynamics .. around 10 questions frm Systems - oxygen and pressurization.. some technical quest like Hung Start.
More than 10 quest on regs.
Arnd 10quest on performance
10 quest mass n balnce
10 on nav
10met
10 on operational procedures
10 on Instruments n radio nav


basically all subjects equally but no question where we had to refer to diagrams or charts or graphs

all questions frm JAR QB exactly d same with the same choices...

I ll try to post the exact questions asked asap

hey

guys some more questions that i cud recollect were:

when aircraft cabin uses bleed air in cabin what happens to the aicraft performance?

The passenger oxygen safety equipment is it continous flow or on demand flow?

@VT delta it was on Mass and Balance, find Rate of descent and to find GS..

wait for some time as i soon as i remember and compile the other questions, i ll post it..

And yes thanks to this forum and thread that i cleared the writtens

Will need help in CASS though..

CASS

Guys, any speculations on when can CAE conduct the CASS for the candidates who cleared the Written Exam Aug 2014? I hope the process is quick taking into consideration that there is no backlog of people waiting at indigo, contrary to what happened when KF debacle happened....

@ Rustom there is a Indigo Question bank posted on Ghost aviators Librabry on FB or else Volaire or Kieth Williams question Bank.. there are around 5000 Questions

Study Oxford if you have time.. its the Bible!!

Is this confirmed?
How are they calling? I mean on what basis ? Is it roll number wise or alphabetical?? or place of stay wise?
