Using traditional methods it takes 109 hours to receive an advanced flying license. A new training technique using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique on 210 students and observed that they had a mean of 108 hours. Assume the population variance is known to be 49. Is there evidence at the 0.02 level that the technique reduces the training time?
