@sbflyingangel: An attested copy of the CPL is the only document required for the ATPL application. Also as per the DGCA notice your documents need to reach the DGCA office within 10 days of you applying online. The last date to apply online was today (23rd Apr). Hope that helps!

Thanks for the info
Thanku all for the quick reply...appreciate it.
I was able to figure it out on my own though..it just took me a while to get thru DGCA website..
@bayblade
i had already applied online...23rd was the last date to apply online.I had doubt regarding the docs to be sent..that is clear now.

some problems...
1) An island is observed to be 15° to the left.The aircraft heading is 120°(M), variation 17°(W).The bearing °(T) from the aircraft to the island is:
A 302 B 088 C 122 D 268
2) A Lambert conformal conic chart has a constant of the cone of 0.75.The initial course of a straight line track drawn on this chart from A (40°N 050°W) to B is 043°(T) at A; course at B is 055°(T).What is the longitude of B?
A 36°W B 38°W C 41°W D 34°W
3) On a chart, the distance along a meridian between latitudes 45°N and 46°N is 6 cm. The scale of the chart is approximately:
A 1 : 1 850 000 B 1 : 1 000 000 C 1 : 185 000 D 1 : 18 500 000
4) A ground feature appears 30° to the left of the centre line of the CRT of an airborne weather radar. If the heading of the aircraft is 355° (M) and the magnetic variation is 15° East, the true bearing of the aircraft from the Feature is:
A 310° B 130° C 160° D 220°
5) The constant of cone of a Lambert conformal conic chart is quoted as 0.3955.At what latitude on the chart is earth convergency
correctly represented?
A 66°42' B 68°25' C 21°35' D 23°18'
A 302 B 088 C 122 D 268
2) A Lambert conformal conic chart has a constant of the cone of 0.75.The initial course of a straight line track drawn on this chart from A (40°N 050°W) to B is 043°(T) at A; course at B is 055°(T).What is the longitude of B?

1) Hdg = 120 (M)
Island is 15 degrees to left.
Hdg to Island = 105 deg
T V M D C
88 17W 105
Thus, True brg to Island is 88 deg
2) conv = 12 deHdg tg (55-43)
conv = dlong x sin lat
since constant of cone is 0.75 , sin lat = 0.75
Thus, dlong = 12/0.75 = 16 deg
( since course is 043 which means the a/c is moving east)
50 W - 16 = 34 W
3) Scale formula - 6 cm /[ 1 (deg) x 60 (nm) x 185200 cm]
= 1/1 852 000 ~ 1/1 850 000
{1 deg = 60 nm; 1 nm = 1.852 km = 1852 m = 185200 cm}
4) Same as 1) Hdg to ground feature = 355 - 20 = 325 M
Apply CDMVT, True hdg to ground feature = 340 deg
Hdg OF a/c from ground feature = 340 - 180(reciprocal)
= 160 deg
5) contant of cone = sin (lat)
sin (lat) = 0.3955
Thus, lat = 23 deg 18 minutes
Island is 15 degrees to left.
Hdg to Island = 105 deg
T V M D C
88 17W 105
Thus, True brg to Island is 88 deg
2) conv = 12 deHdg tg (55-43)
conv = dlong x sin lat
since constant of cone is 0.75 , sin lat = 0.75
Thus, dlong = 12/0.75 = 16 deg
( since course is 043 which means the a/c is moving east)
50 W - 16 = 34 W
3) Scale formula - 6 cm /[ 1 (deg) x 60 (nm) x 185200 cm]
= 1/1 852 000 ~ 1/1 850 000
{1 deg = 60 nm; 1 nm = 1.852 km = 1852 m = 185200 cm}
4) Same as 1) Hdg to ground feature = 355 - 20 = 325 M

Are you serious ? Maybe you did not understand what keith was trying to say. Everyone pays for their respective internet charges buddy, no big deal there. When you download something which is not available for free (here i am referring to the charges of the product and not the internet charges), you are actually stealing someone's work.
To make it simpler for you, suppose you dedicate a major time of your life writing a book, which was never intended to be sold for free of course. Then comes some person who purchase the copy of your book, scans it and upload it on the internet. Now the whole world downloads your book from the internet FOR FREE and then when you look at the statistics, you're shocked to see the whole world using your book but total sales of your book is very less comparitively. That's stealing someone's hard work, also known as piracy.
Too difficult to understand ???

1) r/l track btw a(45n 10w) and b(48'30n 15w) is
RL track from A to B is 270 + x deg
In triangle AOB
departure dist AO = d long in min x cos 45 = 5 x 60 x cos 45 = 212 nm.
great circle dist BO = (48.5 - 45) x 60 = 210 nm
tan x = BO/AO = 210/212
x = tan inv 210/212 = 44.7 deg
RL track = 270 + 44.7 = 314.7 deg
RL track from A to B is 270 + x deg

3) an a/c travels a g/c track from 56n 70w to 62n 110e. Total dist travelled is
70 W and 110 E are meridian - anti meridian
A/c will fly from 56 N to 62 N via North pole
Gc dist from 56 N to north pole = (90 - 56) x 60 = 2040 nm
Gc dist from north pole to 62 N = (90 - 62) x 60 = 1680 nm
Total dist = 2040 + 1680 = 3720 nm
70 W and 110 E are meridian - anti meridian
