guyz can u plz help me these ques
 
An aircraft is flying at FL 140 where the COAT is -5° C. It is flying at an indicated air speed of 260 kts and is experiencing a headwind of 34 knots. When 150 nm from the FIR boundary it is instructed to reduce speed in order to delay arrival at the boundary by 5 minutes. The required reduction in indicated air speed is:
A) 33 kts.
B) 41 kts.
C) 24 kts.
D) 15 kts.
ans a
The time interval between the transmission of a given DME interrogation pulse and the reception of the appropriate response pulse at the aircraft is 2 milli seconds. The slant range is:
A) 162 nm
B) 73 nm
C) 323 nm
D) 92 nm

ans is 162nm

IAS or CAS = 260 kts Find TAS which = 323 kts wind = 34 Headwind therefore Ground speed = 289 kts , Now time taken to cover 150Nm @ 289 = 31min.wit a delay of 5 min revised time = 36 min . Now speed = Distance/ Time therefore Speed @ delay of 5min= 150/36 min = 250 kts (ground speed) now convert 250 kts to TAS by adding 34 kts headwind which give you TAS of 284 kts using your flight computer Find CAS @ that TAS which equates to 228 kts ,,,,

now find the difference : 260 Kts -228Kts = 32 kts / 33kts :rolleyes:

the first one seems dodgy but colsest i came was using cx2 using actual tas and a CAS of 226 ...i got an ans of 36 kts difference

2nd one is simple

distance = speed/time = 3*10^8 / 0.002 = 324
but this equals distance wave travels to stn and back so we divide by 2 we get 162

CONTACT NUMBER FOR CAE PEOPLE
 
Hii friends i have been trying to get a hall number for indigo assessment for pretty long time now ..can sum1 plz PM the contacts number for the cae people

any info will be appreciated

TUXEDO 16th Oct 2011 17:55

Where are all the above questions found exactly??

ButterFly747 16th Oct 2011 18:14

just received my hall ticket e-mail from Capt Upendranath for the 20th Oct..

DJ Flyboy 16th Oct 2011 19:06

Butterfly whats the venue this time..

ButterFly747 16th Oct 2011 19:17

same as earlier..that "parkland hotel"..wish they'd found a better place!!

DJ Flyboy 16th Oct 2011 19:26

Thanks buddy!

edit: Just got my hall ticket..for 21st

ButterFly747 16th Oct 2011 21:45

help needed

Whats the formula to calculate NDB range??

The nominal maximum range of an NDB with a transmitter power is 200 watts is:

A) 150 to 170 nm.
B) 200 to 220 nm.
C) 100 to 120 nm.
D) 50 to 60 nm.

DJ Flyboy 16th Oct 2011 22:08

the formula for NDB range is
over water (nm) = 3√Wattage
Over Land (nm) = 2√Wattage

So according to me the range of a 200 W NDB is 2√200 =28.3nm

is the answer in Km or nm??

ButterFly747 16th Oct 2011 22:33

nms i suppose!!
none of the ans match with these formulae?!?!?!?
another Q

The approximate range of a 10 KW NDB over the sea is:

A)100 nm

DJ Flyboy 16th Oct 2011 22:38

It must be 1KW
Range over water = 3√1000 =94.8 =approx 100nm
where are you getting these questions from?

ButterFly747 16th Oct 2011 22:42

aviationtire..where r u studying from??

though many of their qs do contradict each other!!

DJ Flyboy 16th Oct 2011 22:47

Just the books.
i dont think all their answers are correct

ButterFly747 16th Oct 2011 23:09

help please..

An aircraft is over flying a VOR at 30.000 ft, at a groundspeed of 300 kt. The maximum time during which no usable signals will be received (in minutes and seconds) is:

B)4.40
C)2.25
D)1:40

guys can u plz help
 
A cambered airfoil with zero angle of attack, will in flight produce:
A) some lift and some drag.
B) no lift and no drag
C) some lift with no drag.
D) no lift but some drag.

Shabez 16th Oct 2011 23:24

@ buttefly747
 
it has been answerd 4 days ago

beinghuman 17th Oct 2011 03:52

@flying machine
 
The answer is a.

A cambered aerofoil produces lift even at 0 angles of attack. On a typical cambered aerofoil, -4 degs produces 0 lift. And since there is lift at 0 degrees, there is induced drag too.

Quick question for those who have applied for the program and got a call for the exam. I applied on the 21st of September for the Indigo-Cae program but did not get a call for this exam.

How long after you guys applied did you get the first call for the exam?

vmendes 17th Oct 2011 05:23

I got a call for the exam on the 20th:D

mgrandhi 17th Oct 2011 05:49

@superdrunker
 
it really depends. coz its just a computer generated call

flyingmachine3 17th Oct 2011 05:54

thanks mate

Just trying to figure out what the average is.

A) 1 : 1 056 000
B) 1 : 756 000
C) 1 : 1 984 000
D) 1 : 1 233 000

how exactly thats has come could you please tell me

Why don't you put up your questions in the 'General Navigation questions' thread ? In that way, it is much easier for others to track all the questions as well. :ok:

flyingmachine3 17th Oct 2011 09:32

i am sorry but i am not aware of that thread can please tell me the link aswell
thanks

Any one else in the same situation waiting for final mail:ugh:
Please reply

A pilot receives the following signals from a VOR DME station: radial 180° +/- 1° , distance = 200 NM. What is the approximate error?
A) +/- 3.5 NM. [correct answer]

B) +/- 7 NM.

C) +/- 2 NM.

D) +/- 1 NM.

mine comes out to be 2.5nm

Shabez 17th Oct 2011 17:27

Use 1 in 60 rule and use degree as 1

200/60 = 3.33 ~ 3.5

flight517 17th Oct 2011 17:56

has anyone received the hall ticket for 21st oct apart from DJ flyboy???

flankerpilot 17th Oct 2011 18:47

climb ... due to the inversion which means warmer air is present above.

DJ Flyboy 18th Oct 2011 02:44


An aircraft heading 130° (M) has an ADF reading of 190° Relative is to intercept the 170° (M) track outbound from an NDB at 30° . The relative bearing of the NDB that confirms track interception is:

A) 150° Relative.
B) 140° Relative.
C) 160° Relative.
D) 170° Relative

i get answer as 150 but it is listed as 140 in the question bank...
if i consider it as wind then it should give me 160 relative
I think it is 150..since there is no wind mentioned we cant factor it in.

LieDetector 18th Oct 2011 12:55

To the guys who did not get a call do not worry there will be atleast one more exam if not two before the end of this year.

They had one A/C delivered on the 11th of this month and still 3 more to come by end of this year.

So keep studying hard and be patient!
:)

mgrandhi 19th Oct 2011 04:43

@liedetector
 
Indigo is gonna conduct exam every month for sure. Next assessment is on nov 3rd week. dates not fixed yet

flyingfreak 19th Oct 2011 13:42

hey guys, all the best for tomorrow.:)

Please help solve this question...
The center of a small island is identified at the intersection of 60 degree left bearing line and 15nm range arc of airborne weather radar. If aircraft's heading and height are 035 degrees (M) and 42500 feet. What QTE and range should be plotted in order to obtain a fix from the island? Var - 20W.

Ans - 135 degrees and 13nm.

Ans - 135 degrees and 13nm.
035(m)-60 =335 (m)
Var = 20w therefore True bearing is 315
QTE = 315-180=135

42500feet = 7nm
Use Pythag Distance = sqrt(15x15 - 7 x 7) =13.26 nm
