Jet is filtering all queries about the trainee pilot induction and is giving a standard preset reply. no use contacting them by email. If some one can contact via phone will be useful...

it comes to 193.6 almost equal to 194..
the nearest option here is 198 .. so its the answer.
to be precise - add the 900 to 25000 and then do the calculation.. it comes to 197.x

i have a small doubt the vhf formula
D=1.25 * Sq(h1) + 1.25 * Sq (h2)
D IS IN NM
H1&H2 are the altitudes of station and ac in feet amsl
where as in the question FL are used for ac
and for FL are 29.92hg or 1013.25hpa
and sq(1.5*height) is same as D=1.25 * Sq(h1) + 1.25 * Sq (h2)
because square root of 1.5 is 1.22 or 1.25 aprox
may be because of the ac vertical distance given in FL we are not getting the correct ans

The formula 1.25(root of h1+ root of h2) is an approximation just like 1 by 60 rule.
The exact formula of calculating range of a Tx considers POwer, medium characteristics , frequency and more components which are not associated with Aviation. (must have read R=root (power))
So, the above mentioned formula gives you an approximate ans, choose whichever is near to that ans.
Theoritical and approximate ranges are same thing. I think its a no brainer, just to confuse. Only ques 4 sounds confusing in which ans comes out to be 281 but the ans given is different. I presume this as a mistake.

"1. What is the theoretical maximum range that an aircraft at FL420 will obtain from a VOR beacon situated at 400' amsl?
ans - 276nm
2. What is the approximate maximum range that an aircraft flying at 25000' would expect to obtain from a VOR beacon situated 900' amsl?
ans - 198nm"
Max Theoretical Range of Vor = 1.23 √Receiver Ht (in feet) + 1.23√Transmitter Ht (in feet)
= 1.23 √42000 +1.23 √400
= 276 nm
Approximate Maximum Range = 1.23√[Reciever Ht + Transmitter Ht(in feet)]
= 1.23√[25000+ 900]
=198 nm

hey thanks to all
i used 1.25 √Receiver Ht + 1.25 √Transmitter Ht instead of 1.23 which also made a lot of difference
using 1.25 in the 1st numerical gives ans = 281nm (which is one of the option but is WRONG)
and 1.23 gives the perfect answer = 276nm
Also didnt knew the difference in theoretical maximum range and approximate maximum range
but now all clear..
thanks again to all
