I looked ahead at the (Gleim) chapters 9, 10, & 11 and it worried me as to how I can pass this Knowledge exam in the five weeks without having any knowledge about instrument flight and all the complicated maps, A/FDs and legends, etc.

One electronic workshop covers the HSI/RMI questions step-by-step. We’ll show you an easy method to getting the correct answer, but we must emphasize that these questions should never have been placed on the ADX test. A dispatcher must be familiar with instrument flight basics, but NOT ridiculous tricky pilot questions. So if you never really understand what you are doing on some of these “red book” questions, it won’t matter since much of the content is irrelevant with respect to the Airline Dispatcher.
