NAVGN · Full-length paper

The DGCA Air Navigation mock test.

The long paper, at full length — 100 questions in 3 hours, one mark each, passing at 70 — drawn fresh each time from all 7,751 Navigation questions across 176 chapters. This is the paper where the clock, not the syllabus, is what beats people.

How to sit it,
and what it tells you.

What the paper isA hundred questions, and the clock is real

Navigation is set as 100 questions at 1 mark each in 3 hours — about 108 seconds a question, and a meaningful share of them are numericals you cannot do in your head. That is the whole difficulty of this paper. Candidates who know the method still fail it by spending four minutes on a triangle of velocities and running out of paper.

Sitting it on the clock is therefore not optional practice; it is the only way to find out whether your method is fast enough, and it is what a chapter-by-chapter drill can never tell you.

How the paper is builtFrom all 176 chapters, every time

The 100 questions are drawn at random from all 7,751 in the bank — the largest of the five — across general navigation, flight instruments, radio navigation and performance. No fixed sample paper, so a second sitting is a second paper.

Because the draw follows the shape of the bank, the mix of theory and numericals in a mock lands close to the mix in a real sitting rather than being decided by whoever wrote the sample.

Where marks go missingUnits, signs and mean latitude

The common losses are not conceptual: minutes read as degrees, an east–west change of longitude signed the wrong way, departure computed at the wrong latitude, TAS used where groundspeed was wanted.

Every question carries its chapter, so a submitted paper says which of those it was. 245 of the 1,847 navigation numericals carry a full worked solution with the formula spelled out, and the rest carry the resolved answer key while those solutions are written.

How to use itChapter first, paper second

A full paper sat before the methods are automatic mostly measures how slow you are. Drill the chapter in practice mode until the working is quick, switch it to test mode — only test and exam answers move the readiness estimate — and sit the full 100-question paper when several chapters hold.

Then sit it again a week later. The readiness engine reports a range and tells you when it has too little evidence, which is what stops one good afternoon reading as "ready".

One question from the pool

This is what
a question looks like.

In exam mode neither the tick nor the solution below appears until the whole paper is submitted. This one is opened up so you can see what you get afterwards.

  • 01
    Drawn at random

    Every paper is assembled fresh from all 7,751 questions, so no two sittings are the same.

  • 02
    No negative marking

    A wrong answer and a blank score the same, so there is never a reason to leave one unanswered.

  • 03
    Marked by chapter

    The result breaks down across the 176 chapters, so a fail names the topic rather than the subject.

  • 04
    Feeds the readiness engine

    Exam and test answers move an IRT model that predicts your mark on a fresh paper, with a confidence range.

Air Navigation · Departure Numerical

An aircraft flies from A (60°N 010°W) to B (60°N 020°W). The departure between A and B is:

A300 NM✓
B600 NM
C520 NM
D1,200 NM

Worked solution

Departure (NM) = Change of longitude (minutes) × cos(latitude)
  1. 1Change of longitude = 020°W − 010°W = 10° = 600 minutes
  2. 2Both positions lie on the 60°N parallel, so latitude = 60°
  3. 3Departure = 600 × cos 60° = 600 × 0.5
  4. 4= 300 NM — option A

Questions about the paper

DGCA Air Navigation mock test FAQ

Is the DGCA Air Navigation mock test free?
Yes. The full 100-question paper, the timer, the marking, the chapter breakdown and the readiness estimate are free with no card and no paid tier.
How long is the DGCA Navigation paper?
The DGCA Air Navigation paper is 100 questions in 3 hours, at 1 mark a question, marked out of 100 with a pass at 70. That is roughly 108 seconds a question, which is what makes it the paper most often lost on time.
Can I use a CRP-5 or CX-3 in the mock test?
Yes, and you should — the real sitting allows a navigation computer and the paper is written assuming one. Sitting a mock without it tells you nothing useful about your speed.
Are the numericals worked?
245 of the 1,847 navigation numericals carry a formula box with the governing equation and a numbered method from the given data to the answer. More are written every week, and the exact count on the Navigation question bank page is read from the bank itself, so it is never a rounded-up claim.
Does it include DGCA back questions?
Yes. The bank reproduces the previous-year and repeated questions DGCA has set, with the answer key resolved, and they sit inside the chapter that generates them — so a random paper draws from them exactly as it draws from everything else.
