required instrumen tation for RVSM? 2.If a pilot is unable to

maintain RVSM, what is the RT phraseolo gy? 3.What is

ETOPS, Different extension s available 4.What is TCAS?

5.How does TCAS work? Difference between TCAS I and II

6.What is the difference between GPWS and EGPWS 7.Questio

ns on runway lighting (from jeppesons ) 8.Questio

ns on runway marking (Jeppeson s) 9.Radio failure

procedure in Radar, Non-Radar and during a SID 10.Requir

ements for ILS Cat IIIb 11.DH and RVR requireme nt for cat

IIIb 12.Is middle marker mandator y for ILS approache

s 13.Outer marker colour of visual lighting, frequency,

morse code and distance 14.Wind shear mode in GPWS.

What is predictive wind shear(a 320 kingfisher pilot got

grilled on this topic) 15.If you are navigating using triple INS

and if all three fail, how will you navigate (The same 320 pilot

answered raw data but the examiner was looking for gps as

an answer) 16. What is CANPA? How is it useful? 17.Why is

50 feet added to MDA to calculate DDH in a CANPA approach?

18.Why is 50 feet not added to the DH in an ILS approach if the

same if done for a CANPA approach to calculate the DDH?

19.What is FANS? 20.What is RNP? Required equipmen t for RNP-

to the north pole(the answer examiners are looking for

is grid navigation
