Smile Chinese Air Laws Exam

Hi folks, I am heading over to China soon to interview. I have read as many posts as I could here on PPRUNE regarding the Chinese Air Laws Exam and it stills seems like a mystery. I am wondering if anyone has current new information on the CAAC Chinese Air Laws Exam they could share?

If you fail what is the retake waiting period?

Where are the Chinese theory books?

Any on line training for this test?


From what I get you should study the FAA ATP written test guide and then Pray a little and hope you pass this TEST..ha.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.....thanks.

I did my ccac exam about 2 years ago and its tough one. Its been my experience to just read the book and study it completely (Mines loaned out), The question bank is huge (2000 possible questions). If you can get ahold of the little blue caac exam book it would be better.

If your in China now I can hook you up with a guy that can get you one (borrow his).

PM me and let me know.

Talking Chinese Air Law Exam

Here is what I figured so far to help prepare for the CAAC ATPL Exam.

1. Study the Gleim ATP Prep book
2. Study the CAAC Sample questions 4000-7000 of them
3. Study the Chinese ATP Theory Book (in English)
4. Note the differences in flight time duty limits Etc. between FAA/CAAC
5. Learn how to use the charts well
6. Luck...ha

This seems to be the best method, time will tell when I take the test. I ordered the Chinese ATP Theory Book if you guys need it here is the info:

The book contains many of the CCARs in plain English which should be helpful when taking the actual CAAC exam. Even though I have been told it is based mainly off the FAA ATP you still need to know the differences between FAA Law and CAAC Law's. You can find these differences in the Chinese ATP Theory Book.

I appreciate all of you guys helping me out....!!!!

Thanks much...........!!

Been flying for 22 years.. have more than 15000hrs mostly heavy jets.. for 14 different airlines around the world.. just wrote the CAAC ATPL exam.. one of the harest tests i've done to date.. 17 in the room.. 4 passed.. i was lucky to be one of them with only 86% and i studied my a$$ off for weeks ahead of time.

was a really stress.. glad it's over.. and then.. lets talk about that bloody medical.. wow

Chinese ATPL Written Exam

Here is the scoop. It is a hard test but can be done. I passed but it was tough. Study ATP written. If you fail you have to wait 28 days to take it again.

The test is pretty much similar to the gouge but it will vary from a 8000 question data bank.

Many other hurdles in China be careful because it can take up to 6 months or longer to get in.

Medical test is another story. I passed but my friend failed..! It includes a brain scan, blood, x-rays, ultra sounds, ekg with tread mill, ultra sound, and all of the other stuff you can think of.

Good Luck...!!

Caac Atpl

As On Final said, the study material that will make you pass the test is:

1. FAA Gleim (study the perf charts really well, B737 and B727)

2. Blue Book (Chinese ATPL) very carefully, lots of questions on the tests could be answered from that book. A320 charts, a few questions were asked on them, unfortunately the FAA Gleim doesn't offer to study them, so the Blue book is the only alternative

3. Green CAAC ATPL question bank, lots of question, most of them repeat themselves all the time. I'd say overall around 1000 questions.

4. CCAR 121. Helps a lot !!

I took the test on July 16th and passed with a decent grade. Good luck to all of you guys.

Wow. I had no idea that the Chinese written was so hard. As I'm going to be furloughed here in the US in Sept. and it seems like the best A320 jobs are in China, I guess I'd better start studying now. If anyone has any question banks they can provide, I'd really appreciate it. [email protected]

Blue and Green Books

Hi,

Can anyone shed any light as to what the "blue" and "green" books referred to in this thread are and also where best to obtain them in the UK or even Europe.

I have found the book about Chinese ATPL Theory referred to a few posts above but it doesn't appear to be blue so I'm not sure if this book is the "blue book" referred to.

Same question for the "green" question bank - what is it and where do I get it?

There's some useful information about the Chinese written test here on pprune but it's a few months out of date so perhaps some of the original posters have now sat the exam and may be able to update everyone?

Also, the CAAC sim ride - is it on a generic type or your current type?

Thanks

Sorry to everyone who emailed me about the question bank. I sent it to some but didnt know if it would open ( a windows/mac thing). For some reason I can't open the question bank now (after switching to MAC).

I don't know where you can get the CAAC ATPL study guide and workbook but I would highly recommend it. Studying the question bank was good but only for some types questions. I had about 500 questions, but am told there about 4000 ish.

Some of the stuff I remember were a wt and bal on a A320 and/or B737, some fixed card adf stuff, Airspace Structure, Question about servo tabs/anti servo tabs, and of course Air Law. You cross ref a book that has examples for you exam and ones your not on your particular exam, so be careful not to mix them up (it happens). The Exam is written on a computer, you tick the boxes. Its not crazy hard but some of the questions are a bit on the "Chinglish" side, best guess on those I suppose.

Good luck to all! Sorry I cant be of more help.

Chinese Written Exam

They will not let you bring a calculator in to use on the exam. Don't forget to ask them to set you up on the computer with the PC Calculator. it is very helpful for the test and some people take the test using long hand math which will not help you.
