HELP!!!
 

Hey! does anyone here know the venue of the Indigo exam for tomorrow? I've already made my payment but still havent received the Hall Ticket! :confused::uhoh: :ugh:
Any Information would be extremely Helpful! Please.

From what I know they do it at delhi flying club. But last I heard one of my aspiring mates told me they changed the venue starting last exam. Tried calling their office? And how come your waiting for your hall ticket till Sunday night for an exam scheduled for Monday morning mate? Should've tried checkin it on Friday or something.

and posts that were awesome were deleted...anyways its not a good feel ...i cant sleep after that its a nightmare....i studied for 2 months...i know everything man..but this paper...almost seems like its made to crush everyone in its path...i am sure got 60% correct but ...i cant get the marks now can i...anyways its got something this paper that we cant see its evil....sinister ...

btw i dont think they use computer aided testing like they would like us to believe..it costs too much to implement

and it is purely heart wrenching soul shattering experience...i mean where from the pits of the underworld did they get thier questions from...i want this question bank...
no indian prof noes compare to the malicious twisted evil in that paper...i have never seen such questions...never ever they are not in oxford...they are not in any seth duggal,surinder,dosjah,gsp,ache tech pilot,jepp , online articles....it is pure evil...it is sinister...its almost like you are expected to be one of those people from chinese matrial arts movies...who can jump 4 stories up fly for 100 feet with a jump kick the ground and make a tunnel so deep that you reach america on the other end of it...rajnikanth would do number 2 in his silk underpants if he saw the paper...

i mean really guys
which one of your commanders who are online could clear that paper
INDIGO really man ...out of all the things in the world .... THAT

anyone who thinks i am exagerating ...please make me meet someone who passed this exam and please tell me what did they study out of????
i mean is just so :ugh::ugh::ugh::ugh::ugh::ugh::ugh::ugh::ugh:
i dont know what to do...
its pathetic...i mean really indigo ...really... lets watch all of your pilots with the same test ....

thanks for your insight AD!
But could you please tell us what was so tough this time, too much Human Factors or too much mathematical qs?
Was the test too long?

Could you please post some questions so that we can analyse it perhaps comment on the relevant material it appeared from. This could also help you.

your input will be appreciated.

please share some questions here.
and does anyone know how do they select cadidates? I mean do they call top rankers or do we have to get certain percentage to pass.

They select whosoever score above 70%.

The exam is not so hard as exaggerated by "awesomedude". The exam can be cracked easily if u study hard enough,:ok: both theory and question banks, just study oxford theory, all the books, u will surely fail:= if you just mug up the questions.

Am I right in assuming you passed then?

@IFLY

do you know how many attempted exam this time and how many of them could pass also you have mention about question bank.... what question bank you are talking about??? I really have no idea some help would be greatly appreciated..

cae exam
 

hi
150 were present in the examination in total which happened on the 28th 29th and 30th in which 13 got selected i thought they wuld keep thier 10per rules but failed this time..haha...its a good way of making money frm us unemployed pilots though our parents hard earned money bein spent...and for the beterment of their child which parents will give them money...well indigo knws it all....well the paper says 70 perc is passing but i cant digest the fact that just 13 got abve 70perc out of 150...comeon := if that was true i think they shuld reveil the marks .;).and another thing everyone knws by now that they ask frm oxford and if a person who pays 375 doll will study hard and give his best before giving the exam...well i dnt knw abt ull guys but i wont spend another 375doll scam comin my way....:ok:

i gave the exam... failed...

the thing thts makes me believe tht this is a money making scandal is that:

"IT IS HARD TO DIGEST THE FACT THAT OUTTA 150 PPL WHO HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CLEARED DGCA EXAMS, STUDIED FOR MONTHS TOGETHER (thanks to the jet exam just a month before this) ONLY 13 GET 70 % MARKS"

I mean ok, i failed( even when i was sure of remembering that atleast 70 questions i answered were correct and there was no negative marking and thus more were correct), i dont think the rest 136 pilots who gave the exam were dumb enough not to score 70 % marks...

after giving the exam 2 times now i m sure it is just a money making racket, and all u need in india to get a job is hard cash or some solid hold!!!

cvchetan, did you clear the jet exam?

If you did how different was it from Jet's? Why is it that Indigo's test seems difficult than cracking the MBA-CAT .at this rate I guess getting into the IIMs would be easier!!

Seriously buddy,please give an insight, what topics were in majority- HF? Were there IQ,Aptitude qs like in Jet's? Nav,tech stuff??

Any weird qs that you can remember?

Thanks for your inputs in advance

how many passed tosay cause all i knw was 5 passed on monday leavin 8 for today n yesterday really curious to knw cause even i failed today n was shocked

the QP was basically divided into sections.

abt 5 regs

10-15 basic performance

15-20 hf and crm.

5 abt time

5 abt rel velocities

abt 10 frm met

10-12 from i dunno where

some numericals were there with in sufficient data..

jet exam is very easy... the ask question whose answers can be expected from 250 hr pilots.

Indigo questions cannot be answered even by the most knowledgeable commander of theirs..

jet focuses on mental ability to a much more extent..

indigo is not a selection process.. it is more a elimination process...

QP for indigo is set by indigo is set and corrected by indigo.. CAE are just invigilators of the exam and money collecting agents..

Answer papers i dont believe are computer checked... the way answers are marked cannot be checked by a computer...

@flyhigh
 

5 passed on monday ,5 on tuesday and 3 yest....:eek:

6 passed on monday...

@cvchetan and the rest!

I have not appeared for the Indigo test, been waiting for over a year now just for the call.
But!!!

First thing that comes to my mind is, if it was a money making scam, they would certainly want more "customers".

I am not saying it is not a scam, might be, THIS IS INDIA.

I have gone through this and probably a lot of other threads and find different reactions to the test.

Some say the test is tough, but admit of not preparing enough.
Some pass and say they prepared for it.

But the people who dont get through, never ever post a single question here that they found "out of now where", "bull sh***", etc.. etc..

I appeared for the jet test, its been a month now and I can recall at least
10-15 questions that I found difficult.Not boasting of my long term memory here but you naturally spend more time on difficult ones and tend to remember those.

Now if there are 150 ppl appearing every 2 months, and just 10 active on pprune, and 7 failing the test.

We should already have a question bank of those "bogus" questions.
But we have none! In spite of other fellow pilots repeatedly requesting for it.

And @ cvchetan, you failed to answer this from Cloudripper
cvchetan, did you clear the jet exam?
Any weird qs that you can remember?

So please, even if you guys remember 1 question that was tough or which should not be asked to a 250 hr pilot, put it down here..
:ok::ok::ok::ok:

Alright, I remember two questions that I wasn't able to answer.

1) You are at A(Equator, 59 E or something) you travel on a bearing of 225 for 100 NM, find out the coordinates of the new location.

2) To where is the information from the gyro-synchronized magnetic compass flux gate fed.
a) Heading indicator
b) Error Detector
and some other options.

Would like to know the correct answers, so if somebody knows it, please post it here.

2 of my friends gave the indigo exam in December and they cleared it. Now they are undergoing the type rating training in Madrid.

I don't believe that all the people they select have "influence" over the process. Both my friends worked hard, studied the oxford books(read through the whole thing and understood the concepts), and were successful.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but to accuse the people who studied hard and got through of having some "influence", just because you didn't clear, isn't nice at all.

If you think its a scam don't attempt the paper and waste the money, simple. If you're confident of your knowledge and think you have a chance, go ahead write it, and if your turn has come up, you'll get it.

solution:
 

1) You are at A(Equator, 59 E or something) you travel on a bearing of 225 for 100 NM, find out the coordinates of the new location.

ans)
considering you are at 59E - pt.A;
travelling at 225 for 100Nm, hence an isosceles triangle of 45 degrees, with hypotenuse of 100Nm ,consider base & height equal( say 'a' )
Therefore, sqrt.root(2'a'sqr)= 100Nm
0r 2a=100Nm. hence, a= 50Nm = base

50Nm= 50minutes= .083deg

therefore, if its 59E(A), then new coordinate would be (0deg, 59-.83deg)
=(0deg, 58deg 10min 12sec) --> Ans

if it were 59W(A), Then new pt. coordiante=(0deg, 59deg49min48sec)
