How many questions are in the DGCA CPL Air Regulations paper?
The DGCA CPL Air Regulations paper contains 50 questions to be completed in 90 minutes. A minimum score of 70% is required to pass.
Which book should I use for DGCA Air Regulations?
Air Regulations for CPL/ATPL by Wing Commander RK Bali is the primary prescribed text for the DGCA Air Regulations paper. For regulatory content updated after your edition of Bali, supplement with current DGCA Civil Aviation Requirements (CARs) available free on the DGCA website.
Why do more candidates fail Air Regulations than other CPL subjects?
Air Regulations fails more candidates than any other CPL subject for two reasons: volume (the syllabus covers 18 ICAO Annexes plus the full body of DGCA CARs) and specificity (the DGCA tests precise regulatory values, not general understanding). Vague familiarity with the material does not pass this paper.
Does the DGCA Air Regulations paper reflect current regulations?
Yes. The DGCA updates its examination content to reflect current Civil Aviation Requirements. ProPilotLicence questions are reviewed against current DGCA CARs by the captain panel before publication, ensuring they reflect the regulatory environment as it stands today.
