Ground Studies for Pilots (5th Edition) - Navigation General and Instruments - Chapter 13 (Machmeter) - Page 133 - Paragraph "Speed of Sound" :ok:

so ne idea abt GD dates ......
ne buks 2 b ref 4 da same coz even i failed da GD last tm ...... :{

Applied for Bangalore center and got Chennai, relieved, everyone who has a reference number should get a call letter soon. I was a bit nervous as I had renewed my medical a few days back, but I still got the call.

Best of luck to everyone.

One more thing, just need a final confirmation on this,

"Computer, PDA, Spy pen, camera, Electronic storage/memory devices, hands free, ear phone and similar any other equipment and devices are strictly NOT ALLOWED in the Examination hall".

I assume this list includes calculators as well, am I right?

Thank you.

i believe so, this is only my first attempt but people from the previous attempt weren't allowed to use calculators, so i'm assuming it's not allowed this time either
besides, i didn't know what PDA stands for until a few minutes ago. i just looked it up - personal digital assistant - calculators fall under PDA :E

@auromika
 

:suspect:

strange I have the same book and it says 661kts.

According to NASA, its 661.7 Knots. But Wiki, Google etc say its 661.47. I think I'd go with the GSP and NASA in this case.

wow that is strange! :confused: are you sure you're not looking at the 6th edition? i'm looking at it right now, infront of me, it says 661.7 kts, surely my eye-sight can't be that bad :8

Thanks vertigo I would like to go wid NASA? :rolleyes:

@ auromika . . yeah its the 6th edition! downloaded off the internet

thanks, but i already have both 5th and 6th editions. i just prefer sticking to the 5th edition (except for radio aids i refer to 6th edition) :ok:

Regarding the performance type..
 

What are the questions like regarding performance??

Guys do not worry about the technical papers they are all PPl level but concentrate on Mental ability testes. Concentrate on very basics

Hey guys...

Guys even i got the mail from Hr saying "you would be eligible for re-appearing for the Assessment Centre directly.You may please note that you are not required to re-appear for written test." :ok:
