PABT for AFSB Interview{2/4}

〰️Test 2: Aircraft Heading & Position Identification Test

◆Test 2 consists of 2 Instruments (Compass and Attitude indicator) and image of an aircraft. The question is of objective type. It consists of a total of 60 questions & time limit is 20 min.

◆The Test Officer explains about compass:

North(0 degree), NE(45 degree), E(90 degree), SE(135 degree), S(180 degree), SW(225 degree), W(270 degree), NW(315 degree) etc.

◆He then describes the movement adopted by aircraft as shown in the image:

◆Descending (moving down), Climbing up (elevating),

◆Top, Belly, Wings, Tail, Nose (painted white), Black dot (tail)

◆After explaining, the test Officer will show you the Various positions that the plane is travelling in (the different directions mentioned earlier), based on that you need to choose the correct answer.

▪️Some Points to be Remembered are:

●When you see the nose of the plane then, the plane is coming towards you and then the plane is expected to move towards south direction.

●When you see the black dot of the plane then, the plane is going away from you and then the plane is expected to move towards north direction.

●When you see the plane moving in a direction such that the nose of the plane is to your right and tail of the plane is to your left, then the direction is taken as moving towards east direction.

●When you see the plane moving in a direction such that the nose of the plane is to your left and tail of the plane to your right, then the direction is taken as moving towards west direction.

●After Identifying the direction, one has to check whether the plane is ascending or descending:

✔️For East to West movement:

●If the nose of the plane is at a lower horizontal level than the tail of the plane, then the plane is surely descending.

●If the nose of the plane is at a higher horizontal level than the tail of the plane than the plane is surely ascending.

✔️For North to South movement:

North (When you see the black dot(tail)):

●When you see the belly of the plane, then it is losing height or descending.

●When you see the entire top portion of the plane, then it is gaining height or ascending.

South (When you see the nose of the plane):

●When you see the belly of the plane, then it is gaining height.

●When you see the top of the plane, then its losing height.

●The same information can be used to identify the movement in NW, NE, SW, SE directions.

●Below is a sample diagram depicting the movement of the plane:(refer the below uploaded picture)

●After clearing the written test, candidates are evaluated for Machine Testing.

PABT in AFSB Interview {3/4}

❗️Machine Test:

This test consists of 2 tests:

✔️Sensory Motor Apparatus Test (SMA)

●This test evaluates a candidate's reflexive ability to respond to external stimulus.

●In this test, candidates ' locomotive and sensory abilities are examined. Each of the two constituent tests is aimed at finding the person's eye-ear-hand-feet coordination.

●The candidate is given 3 chances to get good scores in each test. Of all three, the best score is counted. The time limit of each test is 90 seconds.

●A light spot (ball) is to be kept in the centre of 2 concentrate squares in this test. The light spot moves across the screen randomly.

●The longer it is possible for the candidate to keep the point in the centre, the more marks he gets. There are also two lights, yellow and red, that intermittently appear in the top left and top right corners of the screen.

●We are provided with the following devices which are used to control the spot:

a) A Joystick: This joystick controls the movement of the ball (spot) in up and down direction. Moving the stick backwards moves the ball in an upward direction and moving it in forwards moves it towards the bottom of the screen.

b) Foot pedals: The movement of the pedals moves the ball towards the right or left direction.

c) Light lever: A lever is provided which when moved in forwarding direction puts off the red light and when moved in backward direction puts off yellow light.

d) Beep button: An intermittent beep is heard which is put off by pressing a button placed on the top of the stick

Below is a sample window for this test:(refer below uploaded picture)

●One thing to note is that the control pedal and stick are too old, and these controls do not respond quickly, and if you have to move the dot up, you have to move the stick all the way upwards, that is, it only responds to the extreme end. The same also applies to the rudder.

❗️Control Velocity Test (CVT)

〰️Collecting Dots

◆Another test consists of a lot of dots coming from the top of the screen and going down.

◆In this test, it is necessary to superimpose a light spot (red) on a series of yellow dots running from top to bottom on the screen. Whenever a successful superposition occurs, the headphone has a small blip.

◆The more you manage to overlay the red ball on the yellow balls, the more points you get. In this test, you'll get three attempts of 60 sec each.

◆As I said before the controls lag, you'll miss more dots if you go for sharp corners.

Below is a sample window of the test:(refer below uploaded picture)

___ _________ _______________ ____

◆To summarize these tests, it is intended to determine whether the candidate is mentally alert and has a presence of mind and self-confidence, adequate control over his nerves and, in particular, whether the candidate will be able to balance & control the flight and will not break down under stressful circumstances.

◆It is advised that candidates are not afraid of this test. Any average boy who has spent time in video games can easily pass the set of machine tests.

◆I couldn't find anything good when I was searching for hints on PABT on the web. So I decided to post this after my test is done, hopefully, this will help others not to freak out before the PABT test, at least you'll know what is the PABT test. Hopefully, this will help you clear your doubts.

"PLEASE" READ EACH WORD PROPERLY

As per a TV report, 40 nations have come forward to help India in fighting the Covid 19 second wave which is seeing a daily toll of over 3000 people. And it is for the first time in 17 years the government has decided to take foreign aid.
The emergency Covid-19 (medical) supplies have been received from countries including UK, Mauritius, Singapore, Russia, UAE, Ireland, Kuwait, Romania, USA, Thailand, Germany, Uzbekistan, France, Belgium and Italy among others.

Hence, Many countries are providing medical assistance to our country during the second wave of the pandemic but some countries are not willing to help us.

Discuss: What is the reason behind this ?

SUB POINTS :-

1. Bilateral Issues
2. Diplomatic Relations
3. Emergence of India as a powerful nation is a threat to those countries

TRY TO GIVE YOUR POINT OF VIEW ON EACH POINT. TO UTILIZE YOUR OWN TIME IN A GAINFULL MANNER JUST PARTICIPATION SHOULD NOT BE THE PRIMARY GOAL GENTLEMAN.
