Thanks so much FEM!!! 🍻
What site is that for so I can ace the test also.
They work on any test from www.cpavirtual.org
They have Air France, Continental, Delta, ect.
I used every one of your answers and only had 68%, failed!
FEM -> <-
Quick look I think of a few different answers.
Heathrow is EGLL
Glideslope is 3*
Aim to land on the designated Touchdown Zone not the numbers.
If not visual with lights on an IFR approach at DH the pilot must choose to GA (execute Missed Approach)
Think there may be a couple others will report when I have time!
I knew that the answer about the glideslope is a 3 degree approach. I read it.
Also, I didn't know that the answer about where to land was the designated Touchdown Zone.
Thanks PH for your answers! It helped me a lot ❗
👍 Thanks you gents, I passed the test (72%) but after 23 choices I couldn't find a name, I gave up for now.
What do you mean a name? You need to put something like AF123 or LX356. That's just an example. Is that what you are trying to put as a name? You can't put names. You have to put that.
If you signed up in Swiss VA, your name should be LX(and whatever number you want).
All the names they give begin with CX and then numbers, I wrote to them, lets see what they say.
Did you use one of those names.
Oh, you signed up in the Cathay Pacific VA (www.cpavirtual.org)
That's why you need to have CX in your name, to represent you so the other people knows that you are a Cathay Pacific pilot.
You can't change that. That's a rule. If you sign up in Air France VA, your name should start with AF.
I use a LX741 name. I joined the Swiss VA. "741" is a number that I chose to put in my name. You can't put any letters, just three numbers.
I'll take the test over for another airline if it doesn't make me play games with choosing a name.
Which should I go for.
oops. I've gotten rusty over time. Actually, I just did my first flight in like 2 months yesteday, and I've gotten RUSTY!
It's sad, so i'll be flying all this weekend.
Thank you all for all for the help.
I now fly for Quantas!
lol, you're welcome...i'm still fuming though. I can't believe i let myself get soooo rusty. Bad thing is, I used to know ALL of that sort of stuff. What's happening to meeee!?!?!?!?!

It's your age....You know, we are old now. 😂 I'm kidding.
RadarMan, did you know that you can fly other airlines withouth signing up again? Yes, you can. Just go to other airline and log in with your name. That's it. You can even download their fleet and do whatever you want. It's like a family.
By the way, what's your identification or name in the VA?

QF088 and R. Mann (RadarMann) I could't resist.
I didn't know that about other VA sites, thanks.
You are welcome. Now, you can enjoy Cpa Virtual much better by flying with the airline that you want! Isn't it cool?
I flew Swiss Airlines, JAL Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Continental, and Air France.
I AM getting old. We've got this ab machine at the house, and i creaked as i got off of it.
😂 That was funny.
it's not...they don't make "joint lube" yet!!!!!
😛
Funny again. As you just said, they don't make it yet.
You can create your own "joint lube"... 🙄
Thank you. I am now a new member of Delta. 😂
