AVIATION
TOPICS
Part
One:
“Aviation
Topics”.
In
this
part,
you
have
to
answer
questions
related
to
aviation.
You
should
take
approximately
one
minute
to
answer
each
question
and
I
will
tell
you
when
to
stop
if
necessary.
1) Why pilots need to have a medical certificate? How is it conducted?
2) What
changes
can
we
expect
regarding
communication
between
pilots
and
controllers
in
the
future?
3) Tell me about the advices your flight instructor gave you before your check ride.
Thank you. That is the end of Part One. Let’s now move on to Part Two.

______________________________________________________________________________________
Now,
considering
the
three
situations
you
heard
in
part
3:
-‐ How
would
you
compare
them?
You
may
want
to
compare
them
in
terms
of
severity,
possible
solutions
and
ways
of
prevention.
Which
one
do
you
think
is
the
most
difficult
to
deal
with?
Why?
Thank you. That is the end of Part Three. Let’s move on to the last part of the test, part four.
In
this
part,
you
will
tell
me
what
you
can
see
in
this
picture
(show
the
picture
to
the
test
taker)
and
what
you
think
is
happening
in
it.
After
that,
I
will
ask
you
some
questions.
(Pause)
Look
at
the
picture
carefully.
You
may
take
a
few
moments
to
think
before
you
start
talking.
1
Please
describe
this
picture
to
me.
If
necessary:
-‐What
do
you
think
was
happening
when
this
picture
was
taken?
/
What’s
happening?
2
Choose
one:
What
do
you
think
happened
before
this
picture
was
taken?;
or
What
do
you
think
these
people
were
doing
before
this
picture
was
taken?
What
do
you
think
was
happening
before
this
picture
was
taken?
Can
you
create
a
short
story
based
on
this
picture?
Use
your
imagination.
3
Imagine
that
this
picture
has
just
been
taken:
What
do
you
think
will
happen
next?
8
4) Have you ever been trained in flight simulator? How does it improve safety?
5) What is the worst kind of emergency a pilot might have? Why?
6)
“Although
simulators
can
teach
pilots
unexpected
emergencies,
dealing
with
them
in
real
life
is
much
more
challenging
than
in
simulation
training.”
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
Ok, thank you! So this is the end of the test. Thank you very much for coming.
