Please note. ICETRA recently implemented an update of the European Central Question Bank (ECQB) for theoretical ATPL examinations. Attention is drawn to the fact that in addition to the update of the ECQB, a new General Student Pilot Route Manual - GSPRM has been taken in use. Particular attention is drawn to the fact that questions have been added to relevent subjects on Performance Based Navigation (PBN) in the subject 062 - Radio Navigation. Examinees are advised to contact their flight school for further information on before mentioned changes and to get a hold of the new Jeppesen GSPRM. Older versions of the Jeppesen SPRM have been disallowed for future examinations.

Further information can be found here.

Applicants must have passed school exams to a satisfactory degree (75%) before applying for examination at ICETRA.

Exams are held at ICETRA, Armuli 2, 108 Reykjavik.
