Study guide
Organise Air Regulations around the rule and its application
Regulatory questions can turn on one word, condition, time limit or exception. Learn the current rule from official material, then use practice to distinguish similar requirements and responsibilities.
Licensing and privileges
Separate licence, rating, medical, recency and experience requirements. Check the current rule for the privilege being exercised and the conditions attached to it.
Rules of the air
Revise right-of-way, flight rules, altimeter settings, lights, signals, collision avoidance and the conditions under which a rule or exception applies.
Operational procedures
Study flight preparation, documents, reporting, aerodrome procedures, air traffic clearances and the pilot-in-command’s responsibilities.
Use authoritative sources
Regulations and circulars can change. Use current DGCA publications and applicable AIP material as the authority; treat question banks as revision aids, not as legal sources.
Example concept check
When two answer choices differ by a condition or exception, what should you check first?
Answer: The exact wording and applicability conditions in the current rule.
Do not rely on a remembered general rule when the question tests an exception, aircraft category, airspace, visibility condition or responsible authority. Verify the relevant current official text.
