Question from the PSTAR

[quicksilver]

Sorry you got it wrong but who cares. You know what to do, all of you know how to taxi and what the differences are in clearance, so stop pissing on each other.

Flyingdan, welcome to the world of canadian aviation written exams. Wait until you have to write the PPL, the most poorly worded questions in the world. Then there is the CPL, and finally the ATP's. All have some questions that, after reading, leave you scratching your head. Not because you don't know the answer but because you don't even know what they're asking!

I recently received a new copy of my license in the mail, on the back it says: LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY - ENGLISH

I believe the think I'm proficient because I was able to stumble my way through the written exams.

hey guys,
sorry to bring this up again??:( ummm i just did an online test of the Pstar (not the actual Pstar) and the answer they give is (4) ...hold short.
is the answer really (1) ..to the runway in use?

I think the most correct answer is [4], and that seems to be what most of the flying schools use.

Answer [4] implies that you hold short, and answer [1] implies that you get clearance to cross the other runways, so neither answer is fully correct.

Talk to the controllers all you damn well please, that's what they're there for.
