|
congratz to all those who cleared...........!!!!!!! yoU all are few steps closer to what you always wanted to do....!!! FLY FLY AND FLY
@ITAviator, go thru this post http://www.pprune.org/south-asia-far...ml#post6294221 @aroumika, yes your name and roll no will be specifically mentioned when you will invited to GD....the main reason i find is because you will have to show your ID proof when entering the 9W hangar located near Kalina. |
In the previous selection process, was the GD conducted only in Mumbai, or in the respective centers where the exams were conducted?
Thanks. |
@vertigo911....GD only in Mumbai.

Hello All
I cleared the Exam..:) I even got the letter from indigo for the test on 28th March. Now the prob is I am a bit confused what if Jet holds its GD's around 28th as last time GD were done within 12-13 days of the declaration of result and Indigo wants me to pay by 22nd..I really want to give Indigo too because clearing exam doesnt mean i have got a job, there ae many more rounds to go n what if Indigo doesnt call me again..aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhh Any advices? |
@flyinghigh
Same situation as you, thinking about my options.
|
so what are you doing?
you think dates will clash?? they shdnt though |
i unfortunately have no option but to pray and hope that the gd and interview works out well for me
if i had one question to ask god right now, it would be "on what basis do spice and indigo call up their candidates?" it's been a couple of months since i've applied to both carriers, but i haven't heard from them, it's seems like an "eanie-meanie-mienee-mo" or "inki-pinki-ponki" kinda random call-up :D |
@aroumika
irritate her..send her mail every 3 hrs..start calling her up from tomm..this time i was lucky i got her mail after 5 mins i mailed her up.. I gave an attempt in july too then someone told me call her up on these last days cz she generally picks up n mails you..you can try this..it worked out for me n some friends of mine in july.. |
@ flyinghigh89
that's true and thanks for your help, really appreciate it :ok: but my point was a proper recruiting system should have a candidate apply only "ONCE", with a proper 'record and data-base', rather than having to apply unsuccessfully over and over again all this worth a fee of 18-20 grand for the written? not worth it := |
Can anyone plz tell us(from the previous GD) apprxly for how long was each round in the GD?
And from what i've gathered from previous discussions is that- 4 aviation based and 1 non aviation based GD will be held 4 members in each team right? Do we each get to speak sequentially? And in total how long is this whole process of 5gd rounds? Plz help! thnx |
Congrats to all who cleared
Whom to call for Spicejet exam?
About JETAIRWAYS, GD will have each group of 4 people. They will be asked to compete with each other on random basis. It will be easy (don't worry). You are not required to do any extra studies. Material is give to you, and you gotto give your views on the subject matter as asked for. each one is given chance to speak and the group has to come to a conclusion, during GD. There will be a debate topic too, where your group will be asked to be PRO or AGAINST, and you will be competing with a group with opposite instructions. At end you will be expected to come to a conclusion. All this assessment center is about 10 am to 5 Pm with lunch break etc. about 30 min for each of 5 rounds. Wish you all the best. |
@jetwins & sierra2467
go through this link....
http://www.pprune.org/south-asia-far...ml#post6294221 there's no specific combination on five rounds in GD.....!!! yes, 4 in each group....and you can talk whenever you wish to.....!! you have to open your mouth yourself.....in the rarest case...like it happened with a candidate in my group...will you be asked to open your mouth by the examiners and other candidates [when u choose to keep it shut for 25min out of 30min] |
Need help!!
Guys please anybody who knows tell me what is an OCA in ILS approach?????
|
OCA/H - Obstacle Clearance Altitude/Height
The lowest altitude/height above the elevation of the runway threshold or above the aerodrome elevation as applicable used in establishing compliance with appropriate obstacle clearance criteria. In simpler words, it is the 'margin' from the highest obstacle in that area. There will be a further margin called the 'ops margin' from the OCA/H which will define the MDA/DA. |
how many selected
Any clues as to how many cleared (percentage) in written test. Almost all flunked as per my knowledge, amongst people I know of.
Any further vacancies coming up with JET? |
@ Captain Jet
from the candidates i know and i've asked who have given the exam, it seems around 8-12%, which is around 1 out of every 8 or 12, (1 out of every 12 being 8% and 1 out of every 8 being 12%), but this is just my analysis, not "official" by any means :) |
I flunked the GD last time...according to my self analysis,3 rounds went pretty good,but 1 (debate)-din get chance to speak much n messed up the 5th round...
those who cleared last time-any advice or suggestion??? |
@ upfirst,
yes, all of those who made it through all the rounds in the august recruitment have been inducted. some even got a second chance in the interview and have joined recently. @ capt.abhi172, as i said earlier as well, your roll no does not denote how many people gave the written. yes, around 4000 people did apply, however only 2200 got a call for the written. that should clear things up a little. also, i did mention, do not waste your time and energy finding out how many people applied and wrote the paper. you'll get to know all that info the day you join the airline anyways, if you do make it through that is. again, congratulations to all who made it through the written! you're one step closer! for those of you who didn't, don't lose faith. keep in touch with your books. apply to all the airlines again and work harder next time. :) |
@flygirl
That's not true, my friend who made it through it August has his joining date in May. The induction process (i.e Medicals etc) has not commenced for his batch. |
Ladies and Gentleman, I read through this long thread, this is my part of GD prep, Concluding it..
Let me reiterate what has been said on this thread up till now: - 5 rounds for each group. - 4 person/group. - Whole day session, 10:00 to 17:00. - time per round ~~30 min. - One of the rounds, we will be given a writeup and expected to read through it and discuss within our group. - Another round, we will be given a topic (Aviation/General) and expected to discuss on the same within our group. - Another round, we will be given a topic and expected to debate pro/against it with another group of 4 aspiring Jet pilots.. - Not sure of other 2 rounds - Success in GD will lead to interview, which will be within a day or two of GD.. Those who have attended the GD last time, kindly add/correct whatever i could assimilate on this thread regarding the GD. Also, kindly share the topics which you all got the last time. Pheewwww, that was long.... but so is the thread. |
@flygirl 2010

please tell me what is V3 and V4 speeds?????
|
@ phoenixrk
V3 - flap retraction speed V4 - steady initial climb speed |
arou-mika :P
Pretty good preparation going on I must say! Well any idea about the GD dates? What book are you using for performance? N how about using the ace the technical for the interview? |
Any answers to this one?
This was one of the topics for the G.D as posted earlier in thread. Aircraft on Approach with one wing low and winds from right.What is the cause?The engine is allright as it was later checked on the ground. |
same query
please answer the question somebody cause i m having same problem
@aroumika if u know please answer |
@ aadityaslg
thank you, i prepare to the best that i can, but you never know what to expect :ugh: as of now, i am referring to ace technical pilot interview ONLY, it's a pretty thick book so hopefully i complete it in time, only then i can move on to other books no idea when the gd is as of now, your guess can be as good as mine, i've been told it might be delayed by as much as a week, but this is unconfirmed so far good question, that really got me thinking, as of now, the only possible reasons i could think of are: 1) aileron reversal 2) if the winds are from the right, there's more airflow over the right wing as compared to the left wing, hence generating more lift on the right wing and the left wing being lowered as a result i could be wrong though, but atleast i came up with something :E |
there could be fuel imbalance which would have lead to wing drop and cross wind making the situation worse..a probable cause of the incident.
hey guys Does any of you got called for the GD? |
@ aaditya
Two techniques used on props for x-wind landing are: 1) Crab method – aircraft nose crabbed into the wind to stay on lateral profile 2) Wing low method (sideslip method) – wing is lowered into the side of wind to compensate x-wind. Opposite rudder and aileron used I am guessing they are referring to these techniques. Cheers, |
Now when I first read that question, I thought well not much of discussion required here, and came to immediate conclusion of a "low wing x/w approach".
But then the question dosn't specify which wing is low, moreover the engine is checked on the ground for any faults. So you can safely say that it is not due to cross wind. Now because the engines are ok there should not be any difference in thrust production from the two engines, which means yaw can also be ruled out. So far the best option I can think of is fuel imbalance. The reason its picked up as a GD topic is that, it can have various reasons and more than one can be correct. you just have to give your inputs and support your answer. Good fun eh? :ok: |
question doesent specify multi engine.
|
Aircraft is performing FORWARD SLIP. :ok:
|
@ fibreglass..
ipts are all completed. medicals happen 1-2 weeks before date of joining. your friend must have given the second interview, hence he is in the may batch. you should ask him for full details before accusing me. for the gd, i say just be yourself. when they say in the mail that you don't need to prepare for the gd, they mean it. i know people who knew/pretended to know a lot about systems/crashes etc who didn't make it through. to be honest, you cant prepare for a gd. the overview of it is that there will be air crash investigations, debates(you are given what side you are on, either for or against), an exercise where you will be given a non normal situation and you'll have to make your own checklist for the same, and a situation where you'll be stuck somewhere with a list of things that you will need to prioritize in order to survive. i was on the first few days of gds in august with not a clue in the world an i made it through. so you shouldn't be worrying. at times i feel the more info you have the more you try to be someone you're not. as for the interview, again, stick to basics. answer what is asked, don't show off your knowledge and end up putting your foot in your mouth. like any interview panel, they will take advantage of that. i went through different books, pilots handbook of aeronautical knowledge or from the ground up is good, try getting a hold of the jet basic technical notes that they give us when we join for a brush up of what you already know. the aeroplane technical by peter godwin is a fantastic book. don't forget your navigation meteorology and regulations as well. for the IPT, the sim is set up on autopilot, you have control only of the heading track and altitude. very basic procedures, starts with situational awareness, radial intercepts, dme arc if any, hold, non precision approach, missed approach. throughout the process, you are briefed at each step, esp the gd. everyone is very understanding of your situation so noone is trying to intimidate you, not even in the interview. they start off with personal questions to calm you down. very nice people, if you don't understand anything, ask them and they will help you i guarantee it. enjoy the process. learn from it as much as you can, because hopefully this will be your first and last recruitment. take breaks in the middle of your studying and hang out or you'll simply crash and burn in the first few days. @ sierra2467.. noone is going to spoon-feed you and urge you to talk. that defeats the whole purpose of the gd. you need to know when to talk. its like having a normal conversation with friends except you don't know the other people personally. don't cut off anyone. wait for them to finish making their point and acknowledge it. don't stress out during the gd. they will know if you are being fake or being yourself. good luck! |
Thanks flygirl!
Could you please post some of the interview questions, just to get an Idea of it. and by the emergency checklist do you mean basic stuff like .. Engine failure after take off/ smoke in cabin/ etc.. ? For the IPT you use the traditional RMI right ? Because what I have heard is they put the heading mode on the ND. |
@flygirl2010
Thanks flygirl2010, that was pretty useful info
|
@aviator7256
Same situation as yours. I joined the GD classes in new delhi. Got to know alot of things that i didn't realise earlier about gd. It seems, More than Whats your answer what matters is HOW you answer. @adityaslg fuel imbalance is only a part of the answer. i think the question also mentions the aircraft running on a dry tank for some time as well. During our Gd courses we were explained that in case of a multi engine, running an a/c on one tank (specially a dry tank) too long does not only lead to fuel imbalance but also raises the possibility of an air block in which case the engine won't revive even if you switch tanks (the engines were checked on landing remember!?). The whole explanation was pretty long but this is basically the gist of it. What do you mean "They put the heading mode on the 'ND'"? What do you mean by ND? @fiberglass it is true that the last batches are still to complete their medicals. I wonder however if our GDs will be conducted sooner or will they make us wait untill the medicals for all the batches are over. @flygirl Thanks for the information. great help! However, I would like to add that even tho' technical prep may not be required for a debate/discussion (even tho' it will be required in case of the Aircraft emergency situation tests during the gd) I feel Attitude preparation and Understanding is required, as some people (me included) even tho' they may know What point to state, may have touble putting forward the point, as one may not have the exact insight as to How can oneself put up a point in the way that the Observers are looking for. In which case some professional guidance may help. @thearsenal they don't dig too deep into regs. However you should be aware of the general SOP's Anyone with any information as to when our GD dates will be out? If they will be starting our selection soon or do we have to wait till the previous batches are all done with their induction? Also Anyone with any information If Jet is going to come up with another written any time soon, please do post it here. If anyone may please post more GD and Interview Questions here it will be a great help. Again Congratulations to everybody who cleared the written. Cheers! :ok: |
for the ipt it depends on who is taking your test. they may allow you to do it your way or their way. be prepared with both. you have control over the heading, altitude and track. the heading will not be set or changed for you. again, beats the purpose of having the ipt.
nd is the navigation display. interview questions were basic tech and met for me. critical engine, performance v1 v2 asda toda etc, itcz, lift drag curve. cant remember all of them right now. will post them when i do. |
@ Fly Zone TRA - Thank You.
As flygirl mentioned the ND - is the Navigation Display. I dont think ppl who are already done with the Interviews will be following this thread any more, but in case there are any. Please post some more interview ques. Once again thanks Flygirl! (btw are you a girl with a girly name, or just a guy with a girly name? Aroumika know what I am taking about, what a heart breaker!):p |
@ aadityaslg
sorry about the disappointment mate :cool: |
