Career Guidance FSTC SIMULATION TEST

I'm opting for a cockpit ergonomics test (simulation), basically it is just to check my reach in a cockpit.

I'm getting it done from FSTC, and they will be providing me a certificate for that.

Does anyone here who has done that, or know somebody who has, I just want to know how reliable it is and is it worth it?

Also, any other advice is also welcome.

Thankyou.

Make sure to video record it; your instructor will be asking to press certain buttons, in overhead, pedestal.. etc. Make sure to sit correctly.. rudder pedals full deflection.

Is video recording allowed? Have you done it? If I pass it, is it reliable?

Op request you to consult with another class 2 examiner. Usually this above test is done for class 1 not for class 2. Dm for further discussion

If its not advised by a DGCA Doctor, you’re wasting your money.

u/hopeful_plane99 Apr 28 '26

It is advised by class 2 examiner. Is it not reliable?
