NO

frise ailerons reduce adverse yaw(caused by aileron drag)

planeboy_777 20th Feb 2011 12:23


is max cruise thrust greater, lesser or equal to max continous thrust
Dude,ROFL:}:} how on earth can this be possible maann......Just look at an A320 throttle quadrant it has 6 Detents
(starting form the aft to forward position)
'Max reverse'-'Reverse Idle'-'Idle'-'Climb'-'Maximum Cont Thrust/Flex'-'TOGA'

in airbus language you said that CLIMB >than MCT which is not true
lolzzzz

LOFT 20th Feb 2011 14:48

@PB777
dude contain your excitement and re-read your recent post, and see if you can still make the following statement


in airbus language you said that CLIMB >than MCT
aadityaslg never meant that....

I aint posting questions so that people who know the right answers can laugh their ass off on people who dont, and you have not even understood the question.

so if you want say something then say it in a way that doesnt offend others else just stay out of it, in your own confines.

high clouds r least likely to produce airframe icing

aadityaslg 20th Feb 2011 16:06

@ LOFT
 
:D thanks LOFT!

plane_777 R u mad? :mad:
Just give the right answer.

And my bad on the Icing question.
I read it as "Most" Likely (RTFQ!!!!)

Yes Cirrus Clouds or high clouds will give least icing(mostly of ice crystals).

negative markings
 
hi guys ....
do cae indigo exam has negative marks for wrong answers ?

and regarding navigation ...do they ask numerics like cp,pnr,scale,magnetism etc ?
can any1 be specific about the exam ?

it will be helpful

thanks in advance

Uniform. 21st Feb 2011 14:10

milton3371
 
no -ve markings
scale numerical are imp.
no cp-pnr numerical were asked in dec. attempt but u can still practice the single leg to be on safer side..
focus on human performance, go thru oxford question set once

LOFT 21st Feb 2011 14:50

@adityaslg

buddy you got 2,3,5 and last question incorrect.
The correct answers are as follows:


max cruise thrust less than max continous thrust

The SFC remains almost constant irrespective of altitude, its a ratio of fuel flow by thrust, so as thrust is reduced the fuel flow also reduced and the ratio remains the same ( your reasoning was correct but answer marked was wrong)

at which point or region of a jet engine is the pressure at its highest
ans: at the inlet of the Combustion Chamber
and the last one as already pointed out is High Clouds. rest all are correct.


GoodLuck:ok:

LOFT 21st Feb 2011 14:56

@milton

also have a look at the previous pages of this thread. you will get a fair amount of idea about the type of questions asked, although the paper will vary from what has already been posted.

study aerodynamics and radio nav well is what i can suggest. and dont skip met.

:ok:

milton3371 21st Feb 2011 17:44

Thanks a lot
 
Thanks a lot guys ...
thanks for the questions and answers, posted here ....

cobracommander 21st Feb 2011 18:34

loft:

Sfc= f.flo/g.s , as u go higher, lesser density. Therefore, more tas,
Inshort sfc reduces.
Am i wrong?

about the hi pressure region in jet engine, its got to be h.p,c in an axial flow type, as the pressure keeps increasing with each stage . Your ans could be correct for a centrifugal type.

SuperflyTNT 21st Feb 2011 18:34

Hey everyone,

I applied for the IndiGo-CAE A320 Program sometime in May or June. I have 25hrs on the multi required by them along with the CPL and RTR, Class I medical and everything else. I haven't been called for a sitting even once while I know a few pilots who have sat for the exam twice. What must be done?

Any idea when will the next session be held (after the one being held on Feb. 28)

alkatdiaz 21st Feb 2011 20:08

human factor question
 
are the questions of human factors directly picked from oxford.
hw much regs comes in the exam.

alkatdiaz 21st Feb 2011 20:11

passing marks
 
is there any definite passing marks in the exam

milton3371 22nd Feb 2011 05:46

Where can i get oxford uestion bank for human performance?
 
hi,
Where can i get oxford question bank for human performance?
couldnt find , rather i can only find , nav, inst , radioaids ..

any idea ? or any online portal ?

thanks

cobracommander 22nd Feb 2011 12:40

cyclone?
 
arent hurricanes cyclones?

So will a hurricane appearing in gulf of mexico move in :

A.Northwesterly curving to northeast
B.counterclockwise ovr open water qnd dissipate ovr land?

I feel its b. But its not!!

planeboy_777 22nd Feb 2011 13:10

even thoug your book says but Itzz b
:ok:

cobracommander 22nd Feb 2011 13:26

it is not b,
Google it for yourself, i did and was dumbfounded To know its a!

LOFT 22nd Feb 2011 14:09

@cobracommander

SFC = fuel flow : thrust

Since at high altitudes the density of air is low, the fuel flow is reduced to maintain the best air to fuel ratio. But for a given Mach speed flown the amount of Thrust required is less at a high cruise altitude compared to that required at lower altitudes.

Since fuel flow and thrust both are reduced at similar rates, the ratio remains nearly constant. SFC also has a lot to do with the weight of the aircraft.
Consider the following example, taken from somewhere else :


Tsfc is wonderfully low at sea-level on take-off, perhaps 0.35kg/kg-hr ISA. If your aircraft weighs 200 tonnes and its lift to drag ratio is 10:1 it needs 20 tonnes thrust to remain in equilibrium. At sea-level tsfc 0.35kg/kg-hr that's a fuel flow of 20000 x 0.35 = 7000kg/hr. But if the aircraft magically cleaned up its act, pulled in all extruberances and staggered up to FL290 it might have a L/D of 20:1 and supposing it still weighed 200 tonnes the specific fuel consumption would have risen to about 0.65kg/kg-hr. Do the sums and the fuel flow is 6500kg/hr for equilibrium. Later on having burned off some weight and settled at FL370 the tsfc improves, getting more "on-axis" to mebbe 0.55kg/kg/hr but push your luck to FL390 and tsfc is beginning to go a bit "off-axis" performance-wise again and tsfc tends towards 0.58kg/kg/hr say. All this for my example aircraft. Pick another aircraft and its different.
correct me if i am wrong :ok:

cobracommander 22nd Feb 2011 16:47

what you claim is true for TsfC which is different from sfc.
You're confused between the two.
Sfc has got nothing to do with thrust.

Im not an atpl so my views are limited on tsfc

LOFT 22nd Feb 2011 18:05

@CC

Buddy i am open to learning something new or something which i dont have any knowledge about, but your data on SFC seems to be incorrect. There is no direct relationship between SFC and G.S . The formula you provided "sfc= ff/gs" is not accurate.

Let me explain you what i know.

SFC is measured in two ways.
1) For Turbo Fan Engines
SFC is measured in terms of Thrust, called as Thrust specific fuel consumption(Tsfc )or just Sfc. And its a ratio of fuel flow to Thrust.

2) For Turbo Props or Turbo Shaft Engines

SFC is measured in terms of Power. And it is a ratio of fuel flow to shaft horse power (shp).

SFC in itself is nothing more than just a fuel flow rate. It has to be associated with, and measured in terms of either thrust or power in order to use it as a tool for differentiating between different type of engines and their performance.

I hope you have some idea now about what i am trying to say.:ok:

planeboy_777 23rd Feb 2011 04:56

this questions is for those who cleared the Interview...Is group exercise so mentioned on their cae website still part of their assessment. If yes, then
how many cadets are shortlisted in this phase of their assessment and furthermore what is the weightage for Regs and Met in the written test :):)


:ok::ok::ok::ok:

harsh786techy 23rd Feb 2011 08:23

@LOFT
 
There are two terms
1. Navigation SFC
2. Engine SFC

Navigation SFC= FF/GS
whereas Engine SFC= FF/Engine thrust.

Hope this clears the doubt.
To add more ques and discussions please post it on Jet airways ques portal. Will be appreciated.

Fly safe

any guesses on the number of applicants sitting for the cae's xam on 28th feb 2011 ??

GONG 1st Mar 2011 12:55

any guesses guys on the number of applicants that got thru wid 6E's CAE's xam held on 28 feb 2011....45 sat for the written !!

cobracommander 2nd Mar 2011 03:56

gong,

Since you seem to know so much and everyone else is playing coy about the aftermath,why don't you do the honors of providing the rest of the info for the other discerning people out here.

Thanks,
CC.

LOFT 2nd Mar 2011 11:05

28th Feb recruitment by CAE, was a big eyewash more than anything else.... everyone had a view about cae indigo exam which should have changed drastically after this attempt... Very Unprofessional. Certainly did not expect this from them.

GONG 2nd Mar 2011 16:31

@cobracommander
Dude i also sat for the written and it was a real big eyewash to all the 45 ppl who sat as being said by Loft .I dun knw much as i left after hearing my result which unfortunately was "Unsuccessful "acc to Cpt.Bharati.....

FlyByWire320 2nd Mar 2011 16:48

@LOFT and GONG.

Stop blaming the recruitment process for your failures:=, stop wasting your time here and start studying, your basic CPL days are over, theres a lot of competition and you really need to have a strong knowledge base to crack that exam. So buck up and start studying:ok: instead of blaming the whole system, otherwise you will be hearing the "unsuccessful":ugh: word all your life.

And cheer up guys, you can always get another chance.

cobracommander 2nd Mar 2011 17:08

gong:

Did you say capt.B?! Weird,I thought initial stage is 3rd party's(CAE) duty to select candidates to ensure fairness and no influencing by Indigo!
Anyway how many actually got through? Did they all look calm before taking the test and before the results were announced?
Any idea when is the next DATE for freshers?

GONG 2nd Mar 2011 17:15

@flybywire
I am not blaming any1 brother .I tried to put forward my review . dts all.And yes i am studying for future hoping to catch some genuine opportunity if it comes my way .:ok:
@ cobracommander
Mr.Bharati is from CAE only mate and next exam likely to be held in 2nd or 3rd week of april .Just guessing not sure though!!!!

LOFT 2nd Mar 2011 17:56

@FBW320

Wowwww Dude, thanks for letting me know, i seriously overlooked that fact. you really opened my eyes today... i so wish i could personally meet and thankyou for the enlightment.


So buck up and start studying:ok: instead of blaming the whole system, otherwise you will be hearing the "unsuccessful":ugh: word all your life.
Ooohhh how did you get on this secret of me being a failure, damn you dude ... you are good... but you know what, i wouldnt mind facing a failure in my life as much as i would regret turning into a person like you.

please put forward your delightful experience with the recent exam (if any)....

@Gong
Capt. UB is with Indigo and not CAE. but in the end it really doesnt matter.

LOFT:ok:

LOFT 2nd Mar 2011 18:12

@FBW320
son i am glad to know that you have reached somewhere in life which makes you feel so good to recommend it to others, but i dont wish and dont intend to be where you are today.

I have faith in what i do, and i say what i believe in.
Sure you must have given enough exams in life, everybody does, but it doesnt make you, me or anyone else an authority on it.

wish you abundant success in life too!!!

LOFT:ok:

GONG 3rd Mar 2011 03:58

@loft
I was not aware of that .Thanks for letting me know bro !!!And very true it doesn't even matter now.:ugh:

tarmac 3rd Mar 2011 04:50

@pulk you should consider becoming a motivational speaker. Kidding.
Well 2/45, I thought CAE is going to stick with their 10% rule.
