Forget WikiLeaks here comes APC... only 33, I thought it was 50?

Are you really Captain material - Why post them in the open, when you could get a free dinner or cold beverages?

Seriously thanks for the info Bikingflyer. Some pretty interesting and well thought out questions in there. I will brush up on the WX section in hopes of getting a chance to give the test a try.

He also posted them on PPRUNE as the ones he could remember. My short term memory would be clogged after 5.

For an hour long technical test, I was impressed at his recall as well. I have to write a grocery list if my wife asks for more than 3 items.

I still have excellent data storage, it is the data retrieval that seems to be acting up.

If test scores improve as a result of this, watch the test change quickly.

I know they monitor this and other web boards.

As for memory, the miracle of a video camera makes it a no brainier.
