The Aeronautical Initiation Certificate (BIA) is an exam open to all young people aged 13 or over. It tests general knowledge of aeronautics and space: aerodynamics and the mechanics of flight, knowledge of aircraft, meteorology, navigation, flight safety, the history of aeronautics and space, and model aircraft. More than 11 000 candidates sit the BIA every year.

The BIA consists of a compulsory written paper and an optional written English paper. Both are multiple-choice questionnaires. You will find all the information about the BIA on the website monbia.fr
