How to use:
Simply use the form to the left to tailor the review to your liking. You can review just chapter 5, just chapter 9, or both. You may also choose to review only certain topics by selecting a range for each topic. This is helpful if you are just starting out and only want to quiz yourself on the first 3 cards of chapter 5 and the first 3 cards of chapter 9 for example and then work your way up from there.
Show All:
This button opens a list of all the chapter 5 and chapter 9 flashcards with the correct answers highlighted. Use this to determine questions numbers if you would like to set your own range for the quiz or simply to do some on-the-spot reviewing.
The Quiz:
Once you've started the quiz, simply fill in the blanks and click "Continue" or hit enter to submit. If you get a blank wrong, it will be highlighted and you will be prompted to try again. If you don't have a clue, you can skip the question if you'd like. It will be counted wrong and the next question will be presented to you. If you're curious as to what the correct answers are before skipping the question, click "Give Up" - This will fill all the blanks with the correct answers. The progress bar keeps track of how far along you are to answering all of the selected questions. In addition to representing overall progress, it is also color-coded to represent the current percentage of questions you've answered correctly on the first attempt (green), questions you've answered correctly after multiple attempts (yellow), and questions that were skipped (red). If the green portion of the progress bar reaches the green range at the end, you've scored at least a 90%. A running total of the number of questions you've missed is also presented along with a current percentage score.
This is what your final score will be if you answer the rest of the questions correctly on the first attempt. Once the quiz is complete, you will be presented with a summary of your performance that shows you the correct answers to all the questions asked of you along with highlighting the questions you missed so you know what to study.
Tips and Hints for Best Results:
- If you forget to put a comma in numbers over 1,000 (as printed in the -10) or .0 or .00 after values where one exists in the -10, these won't count against you (i.e. "3350" and "3,350" are both marked correct. "4", "4.0" and "4.00" are all marked correct.)
- Blanks are not case sensitive - upper or lower case words will work just fine.
- Don't enter units such as % or °C or whatever - they're already there. If you have the patience to figure out how to type out a ° symbol, more power to you but if you put it in a blank, you'll get it wrong
- Only one word per blank. If there are 5 blanks, don't put "Land as soon as possible" all in the first one.
- Numbers under 10 may either be entered as digits or spelled out (i.e. if -10 spells out "two", "2" or "two" will be marked correct and vice versa)
- Use the tab key or spacebar to jump from blank to blank quickly. You can use enter instead of clicking on the "Continue" button to submit your answers.

28AUG08 - Added progress bar and "Abort" button functionality.
21SEP08 - Added answer highlighting when viewing "Show All".
07FEB09 - Numbers from 0-10 may be entered as digits or spelled out (i.e. 2 or two) and will be marked correct as long as input is the correct answer regardless of what format is used in the Operator's Supplement or -10.
07FEB09 - Fixed bug causing errors when decimals under 10 were entered (i.e. 4.5).
07FEB09 - Summary at end of quiz now displays and highlights the correct answer to all questions asked for quick review.
15APR09 - Cleaned code and split source into multiple files to enhance reusability. HTA (standalone) file is now generated automatically by ASP and will reflect changes made to the definitions or quizzer .JS files without manual editing. No change in functionality to the user.
20APR09 - Consolidated quizzer into one .asp file that utilises querystrings to generate all quizzes and .hta standalone files for multiple aircraft automatically by dynamically including the appropriate .JS definition files (one script runs all). This greatly enhances consistency and ease of updating. No change in functionality to the user.
20APR09 - The terms "Emer" and "Emergency" are now interchangeable as well as "Eng" and "Engine" (i.e. if -10/Operator's Supplement states "Emer Shutdown" and "Emergency" is used in the blank, it will be counted correct and vice versa). ".00" on numbers is now optional for compatibility with CH-47D limits (i.e. "2.00" is used in the -10 but "2" or "2.0" will be marked correct as well and vice versa). Numbers under 10 are still interchangeable with the spelling of the number as well (i.e. "2", "2.0", "2.00", and "two" are now all correct regardless of how it's printed in the -10/Operator's Supplement).
20APR09 - Added an attempt counter in the error message generated when an incorrect answer is submitted.
20APR09 - Added a more detailed summary at the end of the quiz with percentage break-downs of questions correct after multiple attempts and questions skipped.
