Could anyone clarify about Mode 6 and 7 in EGPWS.
Mode 7 is for windshear alert below 1500 feet and gives windshear warning both during approach and takeoff.
similarly, Mode 6 gives bankangle warning. Is the bank angle warning only during approach or also during t/o?

Does anyone know for sure, the process from here on?
Would we have the Interview the next day if we clear GD successfully??
What would be after the Interview and when does the next round happen(as per last time)??
When is the Sim check and medical test if one clears GD and PI??

After you appear for your GD, you will receive the results for the same the next day and if you clear it,you will have to appear for the interview the next day...ie there will be a gap of one day between GD and PI...
You will receive the results for the PI a week after all the interviews are over...then u will start getting calls for sim check which takes a while(could be even one and a half month later)...sim checks results are dispatched in a week's time...
And after all that done you will get the call for medicals 10days before your training batch has to start...
That's what happened last time...Also try n refer to last year's forum...its quite informative..

I am getting different replies from different people.
Bank angle warning comes below 150 feet AGL for sure. But I have heard from some that it is only during approach and some that it is in both t/o and approach.
Are people replying sure that it is in both phases?

there were five gds, following is the list of topics given to me
1) 4 situations related to flying
i) smoke in aircraft
ii) delayed departure
iii) extra fuel consumption in first xc solo flight
don't remember the forth
2) A debate on to "much automation in flying" .... good or bad
3) A case was given we were supposed to read and discuss on it (smoke in flight and landing)
4) again a case of accident was given we were supposed to find out the cause of accident
5) A list of ten things was given we were supposed to arrange it as per their priority in case of crash in himalaya mountain.

Earlier question
I skipped a vital sentence from one of my earlier questions by mistake. I apologise. Here is the full question:
An INS equipped a/c flies from 56 N 20 W (waypoint 3) to 56 N 30 W (waypoint 4). With constant drift during flight the a/c heading will:
a) increase by more than 10 degree
b) decrease by less than 10 degree
c) increase by less than 10 degree
d) remain constant
Answer: b (How less than 10 degree?)
My explanation: Departure=335.516 NM
ERW comes to -12.435 degrees/ hr
TW = GS /60 * tan lat
How to calculate GS ?
