Exam strategy

Why it's tested & common exam traps.

This subject rewards precise recall over reasoning — DGCA often tests the exact regulatory wording of a definition rather than the everyday meaning of the term.

Common traps: mixing up the right-of-way hierarchy between balloons, gliders, towing aircraft and powered aircraft, confusing what a bare CPL permits versus what needs an added rating, and misremembering which document certifies which fact about an aircraft.
