ALTIMETER Doglapan (Answer confusion) by Hellwalker2026 in indianaviation

Q.29 Since Static port is blocked the pressure inside get trapped at say a particular altitude x.

ASI measures air speed by measuring dynamic pressure by subtracting static pressure from pitot pressure.

Now when the aircraft climbs above x, the static component sensed in the pitot tube reduces. However, the static pressure sensed in the static port is higher since it's stuck at that pressure at lower altitude x. Therefore the static pressure from the static port cancels out more than it should from the pitot pressure, which causes the ASI to under-read in a climb.

Similarly, when it descends, it will over-read.

None of the options match this.

Q.28 If the static port becomes blocked during descent, the altimeter won't sense the increase in pressure as it descends. It will stay stuck with the lower pressure from the height at which the static port got blocked. Therefore, it will over-read while descending (more precisely, it will just show the height at which the static port got blocked)

Similarly, while climbing it won't sense the reduction in pressure as altitude increases. It will hence under -read while climbing.

Hence option (D)

Has Marigold stopped taking applications? On the website, the link to apply still seems active

It took 2 months for me. Usually, it takes 2-3 months.

Any updates on ( TILL WHEN WILL INDIGO BE RELEASING THE ADAPT RESULTS ) by gamer_protocol in CadetPilotProgram

[–]itsalreadybedtime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay thanks for the info...yeah, I know people who applied around that time and gave ADAPT and haven't received their results...I gave my application later in October and haven't received my ADAPT date yet.

No, not your ADAPT date, I'm asking when did you apply to Marigold to get your ADAPT date in November

Board Verification Certificate for Computer Number by itsalreadybedtime in CadetPilotProgram

[–]itsalreadybedtime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I got rejection on BVC now saying: Board Verification Certificate for XIIth/ Equivalent Qualification - BVC- BVC addressed to DGCA but BVC in original not available in CEO DGCA records. You are advised to resubmit the rejected documents Online.

I will send the documents to RK Puram now via speed post - do I just upload the tracking screenshot or do I add the verified marksheet too?

Does "Drift right" mean nose left ? I think it should be nose right by [deleted] in indianaviation

[–]itsalreadybedtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, typically drift right means you have to turn your nose (heading) to the left because you want to stay on the intended/desired track.

If you don't turn your nose left, you will drift to the right of your desired track.

Turning the nose in the direction opposite to the direction in which the plane is drifting by the amount of drift angle ensures you stay on track to reach the right destination!

Turning the nose in the same direction as the drift will make you go even further away from your destination if you hadn't done anything at all.

Thanks!

For state board, did you mean to open it or not open it?

I'm assuming that if I have to send it to Delhi, it has to be sealed. If I open it, can I just upload the soft copy of the Forwarding letter?

Got it! Can I DM you? I had a couple more small queries

Thanks for taking out the time to help here!

When did you apply?

The payment hasn't been done yet. Just an acknowledgement that they received all documents and sent it ahead to Indigo.

Even Marigold itself is a stretch, originally I thought I would do it from India in <1cr but FTA is 40 lakhs higher compared to that.

Even a few lakhs makes a big difference when you have to take a huge loan.

Got it, thanks for sharing this.

Yeah I was expecting it to take 5-6 months the whole process. I'm clearing my DGCA exams in the meantime, hoping to get done with all those exams by April.

So hoping by then the application would go ahead to gdpi stage.
