EXAMS
It is extremely necessary that before the examination a final training is made (as an exam simulation) and that it is given by an instructor, different from the one that conducted the training, in order to certify the condition of the pilot, satisfactorily
The Exam sessions will be scheduled by the Examiner in coordination with the mentor and the pilot. It is important that the date and hours established are of common agreement and suitable for the availability of all the participants. (Staff Email should be the primary communication channel, for exams schedules)
The instructor will indicate the airports where the examination will take place, informing the pilot in advance so that he can arrange NavCharts and other necessary material for the examination.

Until further instructions, SPP examination will take place outside Angolan airspace by determination of the Division´s Mentors, until the Division's procedures and airports documentation can be considered within the minimum standards of IVAO
