Correction,he said 52 aircrafts by this years end. People from december's induction are still to be online,most probably first week of july.since december they have already inducted close to 60 people. So if you do the math,they need 70 more pilots by this years end,an avg of only 10 pilots per month. And donot forget,a lot of pilots from AI would be joining IndiGo too.

DME..!!
 

What is the correct accuracy and range error for DME...everywhere its given different answer..??
is it +/- 0.25Nm plus 1.25% distance mearured
or+/- 0.5 Nm or 3% of range whichever is greater

its +/- 0.5 nm or 3% of range whichever is greater:ok:

DME Range
 

+/- 0.5 nm or 3% of range whichever is greater

Thanks..!!

DME range
 

its 0.25nm +1.25% of range for jaa atpl and I m 100% sure about this.

check this out,it will clear all your doubts.

Ques: Aircraft flying at 6000' enters cone of confusion.wht is the diameter of the cone in (nm)?

Thank You

What are the kind of questions that are being asked under
- Air Regulations
- Meteorology
- Jet Engines

Please do post your replies. Much needed and would be highly appreciated.

VOR Cone of confusion
 

radius cone of confusion = alt (in nm) x tan 50

6000'/6080'=0.98 nm

0.98 x tan 50 = 1.16 nm

so diameter = 1.16 x 2 = 2.3 nm

@ Viky

Which book did u find the formula to calculate the cone of confusion from?

the cone of confustion is
50 degrees of either side of the normal(earth vertical) from the Vor

This is from Oxford

I am trying to make sense of your formula

If one is about 6000` high which corresponds to 1 nm , by the answer you suggested the cone of confusion`s diameter is more than 2nm. It just doesnt seem right ! If thats the case then VOR doesnt seem accurate enough. Theres gotta be some other formula.

Guys this is such a simple problem and there is actually no formula , its simple trigonometry .

TAN 0 = PERPENDICULAR/BASE

Angle is 50 degrees
Base is the altitude of a/c
Perpendicular is the radius of cone of confusion .

Thanx for the reply..

How many cleared the written this time? Totally on all 4 days

Got the Mail for 2nd stage.....:ok:

@planeboy_777 & g_viky2001
 

i think its 40 degrees both sides, that's what i remember reading in one of the oxfords.
should be tan 40 in that case?

cheers,
P

That's was pretty quick from CAE.:eek:

@planeboy_777
did u get the date for stage 2 or just the e-mail regarding the online questionnaire??
