After reading Oxford, go through Sahil Khurrana notes and read the full document and along with that; solve
all given questions. (10 to 15 question from Sahil’s document) After finishing all 3 SAHIL KHURRANA
documents

Go through RK BALI BOOK. (25-30 questions from RK BALI) Read the given theory and solve Questions
again. (FULL BOOK) along with given Question paper on back side. (VVIMP)

After all this has been done, If time persists… SOLVE KEITH WILLIAMS QB of gen nav, instrument, radio.
Can expect around 10 to 15 One Word Answers Direct Questions based on the same principles you might've
learned while reading Oxford, SK and RK.

LEARN how to use CX-3 calculator, EASY 10-15 MARKS DIRECT. (Let me know if you want a session where I
can teach how to use CX-3 calculator)

4) MASS AND BALANCE;- from Sahil Khurrana... read the given theory and mug up the questions he has
given in the document. Learn formulas!

After Sahil, go through RK BALI theory and questions.

5) PERFORMANCE;- a very Tricky topic. Questions will be Random. Instead of mugging up, learn what
different Speeds mean, And learn when to use those Speeds. Use Sahil Khurrana document for further
assistance of questions... can expect 1 or 2 question from his document.

6) FLIGHT PLAN;- Learn from RK Bali, read the full chapter thoroughly and mug up the full ICAO flight plan
chart. Very important. (Minimum 3 questions)

This is all for NAV. Please let us know if you need any further assistance…
