ATPL on single engine
This is for Maverick03-
Earlier (before 2003) DGCA allowed ATPL to be issued on single engine. So you could do the Day, Night and IR on the Cessna 152 (for example) and apply for an ATPL if you had the requisite flying hours and had passed the exams. Same was the case with SCPL.
Now, the rule is that you can no longer appear for your ATPL flying tests on a single engine type.
Of course, your flying experience does not have to be on a multi engine type. Single engine experience is counted towards experience required for issue of ATPL.
For job related issues, I am not sure but there are some small non scheduled operators who employ pilots with single engine experience.
Happy Landings!!

My status on the udaan.nic.in page still says documents received and roll no. will be issued once they are verified.
Its strange as people claim that roll no.'s have already been issued.

DGCA exam
Guys,
I too got the All Paper scheduled message. But looks like today they have removed the Book exam online option. Did you all get your roll no by email or did you just have to find it out online?

I appeared for the ATPL Nav attempt this December for the first time. I studied basic CPL level notes for theory and finished all the Q&A's from Oxford.
The paper was pretty much on the same lines. Some of the people also prepared using Keith Williams. The exam also had portions of questions based on definitions on flight planning like MTOW,RTOW, BOW, MLW etc.
All questions are for 1 marks each so you don’t have to spend time on studying detailed numerical on CP, PNR, Time, and altimeter etc.
I hope this helps.

Hey,
Met was a decent paper too. The usual 50 questions, 2 marks each. Not too many questions with regard to Indian climatology if memory serves me right. Questions were fair enough. Nothing that anyone could have complained about except for maybe a few. One answer to a question I couldn't find anywhere was the vertical speed change or that required of a windshear in a CAT. Can't recollect the rest now
Like said above, Nav and Radio Aids&Instruments were decent. The only thing I could've complained about was questions on INS & IRS which were asked in the Nav exam which weren't a part of the Nav syllabus. No questions on GPS were asked. About 4 questions on EGPWS and about 4 on AWR and its cosecant beam used in MAP mode. Simple questions on Static block affecting altimeter, ASI, VSI. - What is maneuverability error? - CP and PNR (4 questions) - 2D RNAV (2q') - INS&IRS quite a few - Compass error related (2-3q's) Doppler VOR - Janus Array Doppler. That's how much I can remember for now. Will post again if I can recollect some more.
CPL notes certainly help since they are all 1mark questions. Could refer to oxford and its question bank at the end of each chapter. I found a bunch of questions picked out from oxfords bank. Hope this helps.
