Cessna 172R Questions for tech Specific
HI Guys,
I have cleared all DGCA exams in the April 2012 session. Nav, Met, Regs, Tech gen, all of them except Technical Spec for Cessna 172R which I missed by 2 questions.
The questions on the 172 Exam were a little vague & honestly, I did not even spend enough time to study for 172..
AN other thing is 172 has so many varients, that it is impossible to tell what would be in a 172 without looking at the a/c AFM.
Does anyone have any question Bank for cessna 172 R which DGCA is using???
I am giving the exam again on 17th Aug.
Would some be kind enough to share it with me or even better, lets start posting them here from whatever questions you guys can remember from the prev few attempts......
That way it will help anyone who may need it future!!
I know my request sounds a littlle wierd for such an easy exam but sometimes easy exams can become hard!!!!
Thanks for all the replies!!!

Let me get this right; you guys want to cheat, find out the questions and build a database of the test that you're likely to be asked on a single-engine piston aircraft with no complicated systems on it at all 
If you can't study for an aircraft as simple as a Cessna 172 without cheating then you have no right to be holding any licence more advanced than a radio modeller.
I bet you'd be the first people to shout and scream racism etc when the standards of Indian licence holders are called into question but here we see a great example of how the DGCA licences are obtained
Pick up the books, learn the systems and apply that knowledge to the exams. If you can't do that choose a different profession.

@Fratemate
Pilots from FAA and EASA use question banks as well for their PPL , CPL , IR and ATPL exams
I suppose you must be questioning their standards as well and suspect they all got their licenses by cheating
@Advs
I suppose he must have been clubbing and drinking which is why he must have passed all the papers one shot with the exception of one paper which everyone here knows that the questions can be quite vague at times

As I recall, the same occured to a group of AI skippers transitions to the B787 while training in Singapore. Boeing found them out and reported the lot to AI. Probably got promoted to Check Airmen for being innovated.
Made the Times of India too!
Many years ago I remember an article in one of the gulf newspapers about Indian mothers going on a rampage against the local government and schooling system because they where cracking down on cheating - the mothers arguments - " it is my childs right to cheat"

First of all, When I started this thread, my intention was not to cheat or short cut the process.
Anyone who is familiar with the DGCA exams, will understand that DGCA asks really stupid questions. And that was a sugar coated statement....
That is why sometimes, one needs the question banks to see those stupid questions....
Secondly, every country has study guides & exam prep course etc etc..
For FAA, there is Sheppard Air, Gliem etc etc & For JAA, Turbineturbine comes to my mind. I am sure there are many more.
There are the check ride gouges, airline interviews gouges, airline training gouges, oral exam gouges.
For DGCA there is NONE. So the only source is people who have gone through the system....
And if someone still thinks that this is cheating, I will ask them to take up the challenge. I will pay for your exam fee, I will send the POH to you, study for 2 months & then appear in Indian DGCA Cessna 152 or Cessna 172 exam.
See if you can get a 70% score... Your views will change...

Books and gouges are for studying and preparation. There are thousands of questions presented for training and learning purposes... and preparation for multiple choice tests... (You've got a 25 percent chance for each question that you don't know the answer). An oral evaluation is not a multiple choice test. It is a method for the examiners to determine your knowledge of the aircraft's systems and performance you are going to operate.
From the onset of your thread, Pilotbaba, it seemed you were requesting specific questions asked on the technical exam. This would not prepared you to study any of the systems on the 172, but rehearse for the oral exam. That my friend is cheating in my book.
You want to prepare for the exam??? study the manual. Draw the systems of a piece of paper. There is greater honor and respect knowing that you accomplished the task on your own, rather than cheating.

It's a 
ing C172 ... a tuk-tuk with wings ... if anyone actually has problems understanding the systems without cheating, could I politely suggest they consider changing their career before they get anywhere near a boeing or a 'bus

You folks may wanna go easy on these blokes.
The DGCA does seem to have ways to ask questions way beyond the scope of the study material. It's a typical Indian authority style to thumb down on so many wannabes, whom I know many have no problems in memorizing every single bit of information from the manual.
You may wanna try getting an Engineer technical reference to supplement your study.

I'll bite since I've taken the Chinese ATPL with no proper study material and passed.
What sort of questions can you guys remember from the test on the 172 that made it so difficult?
