ENAC Airspace Conflict Watch
IntellectualPSY0Aircraft cross two bands of six airways, blue ones from right to left and violet ones from left to right. Each band has a grey zone that can never hold more than 4 aircraft, or more than 2 blue ones. You close airways to keep both zones within their limits, and you divert as few aircraft as you can. The exam format is 10 boards in a row.
Overview
Watch the edges where the aircraft come in, not the middle. A group that's going to overflow a zone shows up as it enters, 5 seconds or more before it gets there. Sweep the four corners in turn (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) so a conflict you're tracking in one band never keeps your eyes off the other. Once you're sure a closure is needed, rest the pointer on its button and click before the zone overflows. A click at the very moment it overflows is too late. And keep watching after that, because the same board can hold another conflict.
Assessments
Part of the Air France Cadets selection at ENAC (PSY0) battery as “Airways”.
Two bands of lanes with a grey zone across the middle of each, aircraft crossing from both sides, and two limits holding inside every zone at once: four in all, of which two from the right. Break one for an instant and the board scores nothing. The only control is closure: three lane buttons per band, on one side only, and a bar down each side that closes that side's lanes in both bands. Nothing you close comes back, everything on it is diverted, and a board that diverts more aircraft than it needed counts against you too. Ten boards run back to back with nothing said between them, and the two bands are counted apart, so a board can go in both at the same moment.
Battery mappings are based on public information and may change.
Two bands, two zones
Blue aircraft fly from right to left, violet ones from left to right, one cell at a time. Each band's grey zone can hold at most 4 aircraft, and at most 2 blue ones. The counters outside the bands show both numbers.
Game Phases
Watch Where They Come In
Keep your eyes on the entry edges. A group that's going to overflow a zone is on screen seconds before it gets there.
Count in Sevens
Two aircraft flying the same way are in the zone together when they're fewer than 7 cells apart. In the bottom band, count an aircraft on the lower three airways as if it were two cells further left.
Close the Lightest Airway
For each airway that would stop the conflict, count everything still on it, the part past the zone too. Close the one with the fewest.
Never Stop at One
A board can hold two or three conflicts, and both bands can overflow at the same moment.

Multitasking & Planning
8 exercisesMultitasking Test
Two tasks at once: scan number grids for duplicate pairs while answering spoken questions from your phonebook, agenda, mental math and word categories — some of which must be answered at an exact moment on the clock.
Planning Test
Build a weekly schedule that satisfies every constraint. Pick a scenario, fill the grid with role assignments, and meet every staffing rule before the timer runs out.
Triple Multitasking Test
Verify chained equations, spot duplicate icons, and keep your aircraft in the gap as hazard lines fall. Three tasks, one screen, one five-minute clock.
Motion Challenge
A ball maze planning test in the style of Aon's motionChallenge: slide the blocks clear and steer the orange ball into the black hole in as few moves as you can. Six minutes on the clock, as many puzzles as you can solve, one level up after every solve.
M-TASK Multitasking Test
Three tasks at once in the Schuhfried M-TASK format: work a symbol queue in its stated priority order, fill arithmetic blanks against a time bar, and reorder symbol rows to match a target. One clock, a neglected panel drags the whole score, and every run records a replay. Or go endless in Challenge, where the first mistake ends the run.
Task Manager
Enter new autopilot values quickly and accurately while cancelling red alerts within three seconds — the COMPASS-style two-task screen, on one shared keyboard.
ENAC Marble Tubes
Two boards of three tubes hold the same numbered marbles. Count the fewest moves that turn the top board into the bottom one, then click that number. A move takes the top marble of a tube and puts it on top of another tube. The tubes hold 3, 2 and 3 marbles. The exam format is 10 boards with 20 seconds each.
ENAC Slid Shapes
Two 6 × 6 grids and a tray of pieces. Slide pieces onto your grid until it matches the figure beside it. A light cell of a piece flips the square under it and a dark cell changes nothing, so two light cells on one square cancel out. The exam format is 5 boards with 3 minutes each.
