@ kiitos.patole

2. Variation at the equator is ....??
Options:
a)180E/W
b)45E/W
c)0degrees
d)Less than 90degrees

Well, the correct option was
d) Less than 90degrees..

The reason is that, on the magnetic equator you cannot be certain on getting the variation as 45E/W at all times or you cannot have the variation on every point on the ME to be 0 and also no point on the ME falls between the True North and Magnetic North, so no point can have 180E/W
Hence the answer...

Cheers!
Answer is (c) 0 Degrees. Because the horizontal component on earth's magnetic field is at its strongest and so the magnetic compass is very stable and accurate. Hence variation at Magnetic Equator is 0 deg.

You're thinking about Dip. Magnetic Variation is the angle between magnetic north and true north.

yep (d) sounds rite. good explanation given by 'kiitos.patole' on page 37 of this thread.

Hey friends....Pls don't think I am trying to create a rumour or a fuss....But a couple of my friend's friends from MUMBAI got a call from JET AIRWAYS on Saturday stating they have cleard the written. They havn't been intimated a date for GD but told to be prepared for the same.

Even I am too apprehensive about it....However, if somebody could do some investigation in this case that would be great!

the thing is in the august exam, all of them never RX the result @ one go, so 9W will send the result in say 2-3 days instead of sending to all in one day.
so it could be possible that some might have RX the result....and last time too VABB was the first to RX the result.

Thumbs down

Jet can make you dance in circles, spend a lot of money, spend days of agony waiting to hear from them.
The HRD (Human Resource Development) department at Jet seems to think that the HRD stands for Human Resource Destruction.

@SeniorEagle

sir i know you're 59 and you're almost 3 times my age, but it is with great respect that i must say, in a scenario like this, where the jobs are scanty and the candidates are plenty, i'm sure most of us wouldn't mind dancing in circles, spending alot of money and waiting agonisingly. i'm sure the results should be out in about a week, patience is a vitrue
i wouldn't complain about jet, they're the only carrier that seems to be hiring on a full scale and giving us some "hope", something better than nothing. and as for the money spending part, atleast they let us write the exams for free as compared to indigo that makes us shell out rs. 20,000/-
hope my points can come across as valid and not disrespectful
