This is what our customers say about their ICAO language exam…
The ICAO language testing with us works as follows:
What levels can I reach in the language exam?
With us you get your language competence certified up to ICAO Level 6.
Why can’t I find Vimana on the list of recognised inspection bodies of the Luftfahrt Bundesamt LBA?
This list only includes inspectors and inspection bodies for which the LBA is the supervisory authority. In our case, however, this is the Austrian Austro Control GmbH in Vienna. Nevertheless, our inspections are recognized without restriction by the LBA and the local air offices in Germany.
Do I have to decide on a certain level in advance?
No, our testing system does not require you to commit to a specific level in advance. After the exam, you will receive a certificate for the level that corresponds to your language level. It is not the case that if you do not reach the desired level, the exam will be graded as “failed” and you will have to take the exam again (except if the result is level 3 and below).
How does the test work?
If I don’t reach the desired level, does the exam count as failed and do I have to take the exam again?
No, except for level 3 and below, you will then simply be certified at the level that corresponds to your language level. Example: You state that you would like to reach L6. If the exam then shows that the language competence does not correspond to level 6, then the exam is not “worthless” and must be repeated but instead a level corresponding to below level 6 is certified in the certificate.
I have never taken a language exam before. Can I also take my first exam here?
Yes, gladly at any time. There is no difference in the test.
My language entry in the license has expired. Can I still take the language exam here?
Yes, this is not a problem. However, you will have to apply for a new flight license in any case.
Can I renew my language registration before the end of the exam?
Yes, up to 90 days before expiry is possible.
How can I prepare myself?
On the one hand, we offer our training software for this in our webshop. It contains extensive elearning, countless exercises and sample exams. You can also book online coaching with an English teacher.
I am an air traffic controller/AFISO. Can I also take my language exam here?
Yes! In its letter dated 02.02.2021, the BAF also recognizes language tests conducted in accordance with FCL.055 until further notice. https://www.baf.bund.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/DE/Publikationen_BAFReferate/SOP/sop_FSPersAV_AFISO_Sprache.pdf?__blob=publicationFile&v=2
