Question 1

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring

Vector an aircraft if any of following apply:

Answer 1

• It is necessary for separation.
• It is required for noise abatement procedures.
• You or the aircraft will gain an operational advantage.
• The pilot requests it.

PTL, RBL, and PIV functions may be used to determine that a turn has been
initiated.

Question 2

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Position Information > Navigation Assistance

Unless specifically prohibited…

Answer 2

use ATS surveillance to provide navigation assistance if a pilot requests it

Question 3

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring > Vectoring Initiation

If you initiate vectoring, inform the pilot of the following:

Answer 3

• The purpose of vectors and/or the point to which the aircraft is being vectored
• That the aircraft’s SID or STAR
  is cancelled, if applicable

Question 4

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring

Before vectoring an aircraft

Answer 4

ensure that it can be established on the cleared route without requiring navigation assistance while within ATS surveillance coverage.

Question 5

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring > Vectoring Methods

Vector an aircraft by specifying one of the following:

Answer 5

• The heading to be flown
• The direction of the turn and the heading to be flown after completion of the turn
• The direction of the turn and the number of degrees to turn

Question 6

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring > Obstruction Clearance

When vectoring, ensure the following:

Answer 6

• Provide aircraft with adequate terrain clearance by assigning altitudes at or above a minimum IFR altitude specified for the area within which they are being vectored.
• Follow unit procedures to assign cold temperature corrected minimum IFR altitudes, if applicable

Question 7

MATS ACC > Separation > ATS Surveillance Separation > ATS Surveillance Separation From a Prominent Obstruction

When an aircraft is at an established minimum vectoring altitude that does not provide adequate clearance above a prominent obstruction, vector the aircraft by one of the following minima:

Answer 7

• 5 miles, if the position of the obstruction is indicated on CSiT or NARDS
• 3 miles, if the following apply:
  ◦ You provide terminal control service.
  ◦ The ATS surveillance sources include MLAT/WAM, DND-NG, or RSE but do not include DND-NWS.
  ◦ CSiT or NARDS displays a maximum range of 120 miles from left to right.
  ◦ The obstruction is enclosed within a circular buffer that is indicated on CSiT or NARDS. (Vectoring an Aircraft Past an Obstruction)

Question 8

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring > Vectoring Termination

You may terminate vectoring of an aircraft, provided any of the following apply to the aircraft:

Answer 8

• It is cleared for an approach.
• It is cleared to hold.
• It is established on the cleared route without requiring navigation assistance.

Question 9

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Position Information

Inform the pilot of the aircraft’s position when any of the following apply:

Answer 9

• Identification is established by an identifying turn.
• Vectoring is terminated, unless you know the pilot has the information.
• The pilot requests the information.
• You deem it necessary.

Describe the position of an aircraft in relation to a fix, airway, course, or radial
indicated on the situation display

Question 10

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring > Vectoring Termination

Inform the pilot of…

Answer 10

• Termination of vectoring, except when the aircraft has been cleared for an approach
• Position of the aircraft when vectoring is terminated, unless you know the pilot has the information.

Question 11

MATS ACC > ATS Surveillance > Vectoring > Vectoring Termination

When an aircraft has been vectored off its cleared route…

Where cleared?

Answer 11

… clear the aircraft to the next waypoint or fix on its route of flight, or vector the aircraft back to a point on its original route.

Question 12

1/60 RULE

Answer 12

1 DEGREE TAKES 60 MILES TO GET 1 MILES SEPERATION
