IVAO Flight Captain Exam
EHM-1365 Benjamin:
For the airfield, basically it must have an ILS and be suitable for VFR, with some VORs/NDBs nearby. One is enough, and personally I prefer it to remain a local flight rather than a flight between two fields. As a general rule, I like to keep the exams out of the way from busy traffic, so usually request that the pilots choose a small or regional airport.
To keep it local for you (and me), I would suggest Biggin on the Bump ;)
EHM-0654 Murray:
And there was I going to ask for Bournemouth (close enough to my old stomping ground of Pompy that I can VFR pretty well with the photo scenery...;))
Aircraft-wise, I've had a "fiddle" with my B1900 install and it's a bit of a dog, in all honesty. Would the Piaggio P180 Avanti be an acceptable substitute?
EHM-1617 Iain:
I rather randomly chose Liverpool (which couldn't be much further from my home yet remain in England...). Lots of NAVAIDS near enough, ILS, big runway, easy taxiways, not a FR killer.
EHM-1671 Ben:
Lol, don't be too disheartened Murray, 70/100 in New Zealand is a great pass... the pass mark for almost everything is 50/100!!! WOW!!!
EHM-1883 Matt:
how long do you have to wait? I just did an exam, and I am 99% sure It went well. The only thing I think i got wrong was one of the simplest things.
What does ATIS stand for?
The moment I saw it, I did my usual thing. "I know this, now, where in my head is it" I wish the brain was like a computer My Documents>Flight Folder>Atis>What does it mean?
