GD and FINAL Interview
 

Hello,

Anybody who had recently cleared or attempted thier GD and final round of interviews, I kindly request you to shed some information and guidance on the same.

What are the main contents?

Jeppesen Charts- I heard this is the most prominent content
Technical- How much indepth do they ask? Do we need to study from Ace the Technical Pilot Interview? Thats very vast. I am preparing Basic Aerodynamics from FROM THE GROUND UP and Jet engine stuffs from the TURBINE PILOTS FLIGHT MANUAL. Should that be good enough?
Meteorology- Do they ask any questions from Met?
Progonostic Charts or something like that?
Performance- Do they just ask terminlogies? like ASDA, TODA, etc or do they ask something more?
Do they ask V Speed stuffs? If so please kindly tell me what kind of questions so that I can get an idea.
Is any other aspects need to be covered?

I invite for genuine and any positive comments that would be helpful for me and many others who are reading though this threads. Thanks.

Hey guys I got the 2nd mail asking me to confirm that I want to appear for the exam.Does anyone know where the exam is usually held and are there any reasonable places to stay at nearby? Thanks

what is the relationship of drag and TAS with altitude

Using the drag formula

Drag = Coefficient of drag*(1/2air density*V squared)*surface area.

The part of the formula I have put in brackets is IAS.

As altitude increases air density decreases.

Therefore assuming Cd and surface area remain the same, for the same amount of drag, as air density decreases the V squared must increase to keep the formula balanced. V in this case is TAS.

So for an increase in altitude at a constant IAS and the same drag, the TAS increases.
