While I may have used a answer bank to help with my PPL and CPL exams (the exam prep books) I did not use one for my instructor exams because I felt it would be doing a disservice to any future students that I have if I do not properly know what is required of holding the instructor rating. I suggest you do the same and just study from all your instructor books and your commercial books rather than use an exam bank.

Free advice:

review part one (learning factors) of the FIG at:

http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/p ... u-5494.htm


then, review experience requirements for rec, ppl, night, comm at:

http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/r ... 21-173.htm


Theory of flight & aerodynamics is a really weak area amongst
many instructor candidates. If you don't understand it, your
students never will. This is really important stuff. Download
and read this 12MB pdf:

http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/avia ... r%2004.pdf

Yes, I know it's from the FAA. I'll tell you a secret: aircraft
can't read. They don't know if they have a C- or N painted
on the side. They really do fly the same on both sides of
the border, despite what you might have heard.


Once you have read all of the above, send me a PM with
your email and I will send you a list of practice questions
for the instructor written.


PS If you send me an PM tonight, I will know that you
have disregarded my advice and didn't read the above,
and I will not send you the questions because I ignore
people that ignore my advice.

This offer only valid for Vlakvark for obvious reasons.
Think about it for a while and you will figure out why.

I wrote the AIRAT exam last week. Half of it was theory of flight, the other half learning factors, other stuff from the FIG, licensing, flight test limitations. Hope that helps

My bad - of course, the TC flight test guides!

Read the PPL flight test guide:
http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/p ... u-2494.htm

Read the CPL flight test guide:
http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/p ... u-2309.htm

Expect questions on maneuver tolerances.
Half of it was theory of flight
See?

Writing AIRAT tomorrow. Does anybody know if there have been recent changes? Are FIG, flight test guide and theory still predominant? What about all the Air Law regarding FTU'S and integrated programs.....?


PM if you wish

Thanks
