Aviation Radio License Canada Practice Test

[Roman Bayramdurdiyev]

Thefirst 30-minute online test includes four sections that assess cognitive abilities under a tight time limit. To unlock your full potential and collect as many correct answers as possible, prior practice is highly helpful. With our new and improved NAV Canada Prep Pack, you will gain accurate practice or all four test sections:

This stage involves two tests simulating specific abilities essential for air traffic controllers. The FEAST1 format is entirely different from the first stage and involves more challenging memory and multi-tasking games, and complex questions requiring good visual and spatial abilities.

The practice tests offered on this page include the Nav Canada first-stage online assessment. You can add the FEAST1 practice tests to prepare ahead for the first two stages of the Nav Canada hiring process.

Air traffic control and ATS services in Nav Canada are highly desirable jobs, as Air Traffic Controllers who successfully pass both assessments and training can expect high benefits and salaries (94k- 120k CAD). This causes fierce competition when trying to make the cut among all candidates. If they fail to pass, candidates have to wait three years before their next application.

To possibly become an Air Traffic Controller in Nav Canada, you must first pass the online assessment. Since only top candidates are selected to proceed with their application, you'll want to get the best possible result.

Most ATC (Air Traffic Control) applicants begin their journey by applying online. Once you complete the application, you will receive an email inviting you to participate in a NAV Canada online assessment, also given to maintenance technician applicants and pre-board screening officers. In most cases, the invitation is sent within a few days of the application.

The task: In each question, you will be presented with matrices containing different symbols. First, determine which rule the two grids on the left follow, and then choose the two grids on the right that follow that rule.

The rule is that each individual grid contains the same shape in the upper row as in the lower row (The upper grids have plus shapes, while the lower grids contain squares). In addition, the middle row is identical for both grids.

The task: An array of up to five different symbols will be presented to you, along with a question mark in the middle. You will be asked to replace the question mark with the symbol that fits in that cell so that each shape only appears once in each row and once in each column.

Tip?: Each symbol can appear only once in a row or a column. Thus, you have to pay extra attention to the location of every symbol and the number of times it spears in the grid.

The Task: You will be presented with an aircraft dashboard that has a gyrocompass showing the flight direction, and a radio compass showing the location of a non-directional beacon. Your task here is to determine the position and course of the aircraft (relative to the beacon).

Because the RBI indicates where the beacon is relative to the flight direction, to identify the aircraft's direction relative to the beacon, you must mentally rotate the radar according to the flight direction (shown on the GYRO). In the example above, the aircraft is flying west and is also located in the west (relative to the beacon).

This task is extremely difficult to perform quickly and accurately. When you practice visualizing the presented information and getting as many correct responses as possible in a given time, you will be much more likely to succeed on the actual Nav Canada online test.

After passing the stage 1 NAV Canada assessment test, you may need to wait for several weeks or even months before being invited to the ATC assessment center, which has specific dates set by NAV Canada. These assessments are usually conducted 1-2 times a year.

ATC FEAST Part 1: In the first part, you will likely spend most of the time in front of a computer. Questions in this section will test cognitive abilities expected of ATCs, such as memory, spatial reasoning, and attention. After you have completed this, you will move on to FEAST part 2- Air Traffic simulations.

ATC FEAST Part 2: This section is primarily focused on what you will be required to do as an air traffic control personnel. Thus, you will be answering questions that focus on dynamic radar, multi-control, mathematical notions, and strip display management. This section of the test is considered difficult and most candidates will not pass.

If you have passed ATC stage 2, you are among the rare few who do! next, you'll be sent either a pre-recorded interview or an invitation for a phone interview. If you pass, you'll be invited to an in-person interview with the NAV CANADA training manager in their area of specialty.

Unfortunately, passing all stages throughout the hiring process does not guarantee you make it to the ATC training program. All candidates who pass enter an applicant pool, from which top applicants are then selected to proceed to the training program.

Part 1 of the Commission's rules contains the general rules of practice and procedure applicable to proceedings before the Commission and for the filing of applications for radio station licenses in the aviation services. Specific guidance for each type of radio service license in aviation services is set forth in this part.

Whenever the Commission, without a hearing, grants an application in part or with any privileges, terms, or conditions other than those requested, the action will be considered as a grant of the application unless the applicant, within 30 days from the date on which such grant is made, or from its effective date if a later day is specified, files with the Commission a written protest, rejecting the grant as made. Upon receipt of such protest, the Commission will vacate its original action upon the application and, if necessary, set the application for hearing.

A station may be used for emergency communications in a manner other than that specified in the station license or in the operating rules when normal communication facilities are disrupted. The Commission may order the discontinuance f any such emergency service.

This section applies only to unicom stations and radionavigation land stations, excluding radionavigation land test stations. When a new license has been issued or additional operating frequencies have been authorized, the station or frequencies must be placed in operation no later than one year from the date of the grant. The licensee must notify the Commission in accordance with 1.946 of this chapter that the station or frequencies have been placed in operation.

The licensee may make routine maintenance tests on equipment other than emergency locator transmitters if there is no interference with the communications of any other station. Procedures for conducting tests on emergency locator transmitters are contained in subpart F.

A general radiotelephone operator must directly supervise and be responsible for all transmitter adjustments or tests during installation, servicing or maintenance of a radio station. A general radiotelephone operator must be responsible for the proper functioning of the station equipment.

The owner of each antenna structure required to be painted and/or illuminated under the provisions of Section 303(q) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, shall operate and maintain the antenna structure painting and lighting in accordance with part 17 of this chapter. In the event of default by the owner, each licensee or permittee shall be individually responsible for conforming to the requirements pertaining to antenna structure painting and lighting.

The holder of a marine radio operator permit or a restricted radiotelephone operator permit must perform only transmitter operations which are controlled by external switches. These operators must not perform any internal adjustment of transmitter frequency determining elements. Further, the stability of the transmitter frequencies at a station operated by these operators must be maintained by the transmitter itself. When using an aircraft radio station on maritime mobile service frequencies the carrier power of the transmitter must not exceed 250 watts (emission A3E) or 1000 watts (emission R3E, H3E, or J3E).
