ATPL B727 Flight Planning practice exams
RRP AUD $64.95
incl GST

Product code Av3.

Personally written by Rob Avery and reflecting over a quarter century of teaching ATPL Flight Planning, this exam book is an absolute must for anyone sitting this difficult and time limited exam. Flight Planning is generally taught rather badly around Australia, with methodology varying a lot, and solution techniques involving too much number crunching time. Hence most candidates other than Rob's tend to fail due to lack of time and correct professional guidance.

There are 5 fully worked exams, each with 50 marks as in the CASA exam. Marks allocated are indicative of those in CASA exam, as is the structure and depth of questions.

Examination marking is via the internet using a personal password made available to you upon registering your exam book. You may attempt each exam a number of times.

The questions cover all types of operation, both normal and abnormal, with special focus on how CASA frame questions and typical candidate errors highlighted. A detailed worked answer file is down-loadable to your computer for each exam so you can identify any errors on your part and fix them before potentially losing marks in the CASA exam.

Also provided is the new CASA rounding policy guide, and these are applied correctly in the examples to improve your familiarity with them, with a better score the likely end result.

Quite simply, if you do NOT have this booklet, you are risking precious marks.

Features include:

• You get the benefit of Rob's 27+ year teaching experience in the Flight Planning subject.
• CASR Part 61 MoS compliant.
• Covers the ATPL Flight Planning syllabus very well.
• The only exam book available that targets the CASA ATPL Flight Planning syllabus directly and accurately.
• Do not sit, or re-sit a CASA Flight Planning exam without reading this essential guidance first.
• 88 questions in total.
• Essential checking to ensure you are doing everything exactly correctly.
