an update would be a good thing and what everyone is waiting for, but a rumor on the contrary only adds more confusion, so scratch out the rumor part

@on wings
yea it's a little unfair, but that's bound to happen everytime the rules change, but on the bright side for you, even if you pass the exam, you wouldn't have to pay $375 like the rest of us, so it kinda balances out in the end
hopefully i don't get another caution for talking indigo on the jet forum

i know, it's frustrating for everyone, but for now, let's just focus on the indigo written, if you're not writing it, then start studying and enroll to write the next attempt, it should be pretty soon!

oh sorry dude, must have missed it
so if that's the case, once the cool-off period of 3 months is over for you, won't you be called directly for the interview round again without having to give the written?

thats the funny thing. i cleared the exam in first go, couldn't clear the interview and i am not eligible to try for this position EVER AGAIN.
on the other hand if one person clears the exam after 4 attempts and clears the interview he will do alright.

its in the call letter


Please ignore this mail:
· If you have already appeared for the CAE-IndiGo assessment in the last three months and have not completed the cool off period of three months
· If you did not clear the interview round(with IndiGo)
· If you are A320 typerated.
and there are a lot of other guys with same issue.

that mail is to be ignored because it's purpose is to find out details about candidates who are writing the "exam ONLY", but since you've already passed their exam, it's already in their database that you've passed and hence they're asking you to ignore the mail because they don't need your details all over again

it doesn't imply, by any means, that you're out of the process because candidates who have passed the exam and failed the interview are considered "exam passees" and will be called directly for the interview once their "cool-off" period is over

that's just my understanding of it, i could be wrong

this is completely unrelated to the forum subject, but i read somewhere in 'human factors and performance' of oxford, a question something like, "a pilot can fly (be allowed to fly) with bi-focal lens?" a) true b) false, and to my surprise the answer was "b) false"
does this imply that someone with both myopia (short-sightedness) and hyperopia (far-sightedness) cannot be declared medically fit to fly? does this vary according to the country or the fitness board, does dgca allow this? also does myopia and hyperopia help cancel each other out in any way?
i have myopia of -1 diopter, both eyes, and no hyderopia at all as of now, but it's still a cause of concern, especially after aging 20 years of now and plenty of flying, you never know what might happen, is eye-surgery for someone with both defects advisable?
can someone with good knowledge and a sure answer about this please shed some light on the topic as i couldn't find anything more regarding this in the oxford book, thanks!
P.S. - i am a guy unlike what my user name might suggest (which btw is a combination of my name and my sister's name), so someone writing back to me please don't address me as "girl", it makes me bang my head to a wall quite literally!

Hey Dude...
well it seems u cant wear bifocal lenses...but u can wear glassess....!!
its something to do with the oxygen flow going to ur eyes which gets reduced when u wear lenses .... after a while when the lenses loses moisture and the eyes get dry also the effects are enhanced when u climb....also during rapid decompression there is a chance that the lens might fall out of ur eye. (one more reason y one needs to carry an extra pair of glasses with them)
also to wear normal lenses u need some 1 from dgca to approve them....

tailspin im not sure you can wear bifocal glasses..didnt i read somewhere abt an engg in the cockpit making a huge mistake with the throttles coz of bifocal glasses somewhere

Aroumika 'bro' why worry when you dont need bifocals now?? you can always fly with corrective glasses for myopia..
