@dg737: Yaar! Human performance is not all that huge for you to ask for specific topics or chapters. Just read all that you can get your hands on. From what I have heard from friends who have given the papers (some of whom have cleared too) that apart from basic human performance questions (hypoxia, hyperventilation, etc..) they ask CRM questions which involves reading the question, as well as the options, carefully and choosing what you feel is the best fit

@sonsal: Again I haven't followed the CAE papers very closely after that Dec'10 attempt but till then questions on flight planning were very basic. Don't know if CX2s are allowed or not but one can certainly solve the numericals without using them. What I was told is that they ask basic CP/PNR, LMT, questions related to drift, etc...

Hope this helps!

did any one of you appearing on 28th march got the venue details and confirmation from Capt bharati after sending the payment reciept?

I have received only 1 letter till now.
 

@ sonsal, I have got 1 letter which says that reply back with CV if interested for the Indigo exam on 28th, I replied back but did not get any other mail till now.
Did you get any other mail immediately after replying back?? for the payment of 20000rs, and when did you receive the letter.

Subjets to concentrate!!
 

Also for indigo exam, reading from the previous post, I understand that we have to be well prepared for human factors and preformance i.e principles of flight, majority of question caome from these two topics.??
And theory of nav, met and regs, is'nt it??

Nothing much from Engines right!!

please help, students who gave the dec and feb attempt!! thks in advance.!

@ torque skylon
 

yes i got the letter to for the payment on the same day, that was wednesday and then sent the money on friday...but they dint tell me yet that my money is being recieved and the venue details.....

@ sonsal
 

I got the letter on Friday evening. I did not get the other letter for payment.
On Saturday I checked the mail and replied to them and the last day to reply was Sunday i.e 20th March.
Till then no reply!!!

@bhashan

Asking for payment.... the same standard email about the selection process stages and where to make the payment etc. Same as has been posted previously.

@ thearsenal that's indeed surprising!! even I have not received the 2nd letter may be I may receive today. But that's not fare they want us to make the payment immediately and they send the letter so late. I think even I will have to skip this exam. I wonder weather I will get the letter or not. :ugh:

@ torque skylon
 

you can get the call letter for the exam later also....one of my friend who first refused to give the exam, got the call letter again....so its no big deal...

@ sonsal
 

thanks for the reply. just asking because it took nearly 1 year for them to send me this letter. Such a long wait.

Got the 2nd letter , but its too late. Will appear next time.

wish I were to receive the letter early the way you had received it.

All the best for the exam.

Hall ticket
 

I received the hall ticket for 28th march. Anyone else on 28th?

hey guys, just got the call letter for the 28th as well. for all the pilots waiting, capt. UP stated that by tomorrow the rest should get them. :ok:

was wondering if anyone wanted to have a group study session?

Got hall ticket for 28th assessment ..:ok:

even i got the hall ticket for the 28th..
How are the studying going on guys???

hey what happens if one has 24.7 Hours as Multi Engine Hours
i.e. 10 Hours ME SIM + 14.7 Hours ME Actual = 24.7 Hours

Would one still be eligible for the CAE Indigo Program as it requires 25 hours M.E.
I mean if you round it off its actually 25 hours but then juz asking.

Thankx

^^^ does that mean that If you fail the Interview you can never apply again for the CAE Indigo Recruitment?

yes
 

yes...that definitely seems to be the case

guys are exam in delhi or mumbai or both???

Guys do we need to study High Speed Aerodynamics for this written from oxford ??
Please Share !!:):)

guys any idea when would the next exam be afta 28th march....i haven't got a letter for this exam.......:ugh::ugh::ugh:

got information from a reliable source,
indigo is not sending pilots to madrid anymore. they are going to train in kuala lumpur now...

@koolchaos
is there any reasonbehind the change of the TR location

Just to clear the air, does anybody know for sure why CAE is charging 20k to write the exam? Am I missing something?

@thearsenal - have heard that the passing rate at madrid is only 50% and at Kuala Lumpur is 90%...

once again...does anyone know that we have to study the high speed aerodynamics and operational procedures ??

have heard that indigo is not happy with CAE madrid, in their last sim check in Bangalore many guys didnt perform up to the mark.
but your 50% figure is bit low.

@hawaijahaj- no high speed stuff.

@ smoothbore
 

I believe the answer to this is b), as freezing rain is most occasionally caused by an inversion layer, with the warm layer allowing the rain to be preserved in the liquid form, which end up being supercooled along the way to the surface and upon striking the ground turn to ice.

The cold front pushes the warm air upwards during its movement, creating an inversion layer.

Hope this helps. If I'm wrong please correct me.

Calculate DA if PA at an aerodrome of elevation 4000 ft is 5000 ft.Temp on the aerodrome is 27 deg C.

Now
DA=PA+120(isa dev)
(do we have to put in the height adjustment for this temp?)( i.e. laspe rate 1.98 deg C /1000 feet) or not

i would but some of the professors notes i have dont incorporate this




ps...i always thought freezing rain was due to option a

i was wondering are there any q for more than 1 marks

Shabez: All questions are equally marked (1 mark). The paper has 100 questions

@shabez
Calculate DA if PA at an aerodrome of elevation 4000 ft is 5000 ft.Temp on the aerodrome is 27 deg C.

could you explain how u worked this question?

also, freezing on impact is a sign of SCWD, which is associated with thunderstorms, but not always. the freezing level cannot be above you if u encounter SCWDs. flying through a cold front also does not mean you will encounter SCWDs, especially in the warm sector air. however, i cant imagine which option is the answer.

what is SCWD?
