The JAA
IR Human Performance and Limitations
test bank contains questions pertaining to
040-02-02 Man and Environment: the sensory system part 1
. The following list contains only a relatively small percentage of the pertinent
questions. Our software, which you are free to download now at no cost, will
generally contain a much more complete set of questions associated with this
test bank. This list is intended only to familiarize you in a general way with
the questions of the
Human Performance and Limitations
test bank.

That said, while the following questions are intended
as a general familiarization tool, this list may not be up-to-date nor accurate.
We do not update this website as often as we update our software, which will
contain at any moment all questions that we have for a given test / topic. Therefore,
if you need to actually study for your test, instead of using the list below,
we strongly, strongly encourage you to download our GroundSchool
JAA IR
written test prep software. Not only is it more complete and up-to-date, but is also considerably faster and more efficient as a study tool.
