PREFACE

Compiling a Question bank is not a difficult thing to do. Nevertheless it requires a great deal of hard work
and labour.What ever efforts I have put in, are entirely due to the Guidance, Supervision and
encouragement of Great and legendary Instructors like Gp. Capt. N N Ubgade and Gp.Capt. S D Bhave,
Who form the core team of instructors of CAA.Undoutedly they are the Father-figures of the Indian
Aviation, Instructors of the Instructors or in a nut-shell Dronacharyas of the Indian Aviation. Each one of
them has more than five decades of Fighter-flying cum instructional experience. So it has been a rare
honour for me to rub shoulders with them.

As far as the scope for improving this Q Bank is concerned, Suggestions would be more than welcome.
May Almighty give me more strength to do justice in designing and compiling a question which would
ultimately have around 1500 questions and almost covers all the aspects of ‘Indian Air Law’
