Winds out of limits
Weather reporting capability is down
Radar required for compatible approaches
Unmonitored NAVAIDs for compatible approaches
Minimums/Mt >=1500’ or 3 SM for compatible approaches
What disqualifies an alternate?
WWWRAGU Worst weather at ETA +/-1 hr <=1000' and 2 SM (or 500' above and 1 SM greater (not to include TS, snow or rain showers) Winds out of limits Weather reporting capability down Radar required for compatible approaches ANA or Alternate Not Authorized GPS required for compatible approaches Unmonitored NAVAIDs for compatible approaches
When may a PIC deviate from the 11-202V3?
1) Protect life
2) Safety of flight
3) IFE requires immediate action
When deviating from a flight rule what must you do (or declare emergency)?
Verbally report incident to supervisor and commander within 24 hrs and make detailed written report to be kept on record minimum of 1 year
If notified of a possible violation MAJCOMs will preserve any evidence for how long?
A minimum of 180 days
What must be done about hazards to aviation safety?
Report to Flight Safety Officer as soon as possible
What must all USAF aircraft cockpits be capable of instrument wise?
Providing full-time attitude, altitude, and airspeed information and the capability to recognize, confirm, and recover from unusual attitudes in all pilot positions.
Crew rest is a minimum of how many non-duty hours before Flight Duty Period begins? How many hours of uninterrupted sleep?
12 hours; 8 hours
Can PICs initiate mission-related communication with official agencies without interrupting crew rest?
Yes. This is the only exception.
For continuous operations with FDPs between 12 and 14 hours crew rest may be reduced to a minimum of what by the PIC?
10 hours but shall only be used to keep the 24 hr scheduling
What is considered continuous operation?
Three or more consecutive FDPs of at least 12 hours duration with minimum crew rest period
When does FDP begin and end?
When reporting for a mission, briefing or other official duty and ends at final engine shutdown after the final flight of the completed mission
When authorized by waiver authority of the MAJCOM the PIC may extend FDP by a maximum of what?
2 hours
What is deadhead time?
An official duty performed by an aircrew members flying as a passenger while on flight orders and may be flown without crew rest (no flight-related duties performed)
What is the max flying time?
56 hrs/7 consecutive days
125 hrs/30 consecutive days
330 hrs/90 consecutive days
You cannot drink alcohol within what time frame prior to takeoff? What about compressed gas diving? Hypobaric altitude chamber flight above 25,000’ MSL? What about after donating blood, plasma, or bone marrow?
12 hours
24 hours
12 hours
72 hours
What does the 11-202V3 say about spectacles?
Must use Air Force-provided and carry a spare set
What is controlled cockpit rest?
When there is a second qualified pilot with basic aircrew, only one crewmember at a time, non critical phases of flight during cruise, 45 minutes/period, and terminates 1 hr prior to descent
What does the 11-202V3 say about flashlights?
Each crewmember must have one for night operations.
What does the 11-202V3 say about personal electronic devices (PEDs)?
MAJCOMs may approve with transmitting mode ON or OFF or if no guidance, PICs may authorize above 10,000’ with transmitters OFF
What does sterile cockpit mean?
Aircrew shall minimize non-essential cockpit conversations and other extraneous activities which could interfere with flight duties when below 10,000’ MSL during critical phases of flight and all taxi ops
Where can you find PIREP procedures?
FIH
When should you declare minimum fuel or emergency fuel?
When the aircraft may land at the intended destination with less than the MDS-specific minimum or emergency fuel reserves
Normal crew should use supplemental oxygen any time what?
Cabin altitude exceeds 10,000’ MSL
Aircrew who are trained may operate aircraft unpressurized up to what FL and if what restrictions are met?
250
Altitude is limited to 14,000’ MSL
Flight time between 10,000’ and 12,500’ MSL is unrestricted, but will not exceed 1 hr if flown IMC or at night, or while employing weapons, doing airdrop, high G, or refueling
Flight time between 12,500’ and 14,000’ MSL shall not exceed 30 minutes
If not trained limited to 13,000’ MSL for 3 hours max, not to exceed above
When must supplemental oxygen be used?
Between 14,000’ MSL and FL250
What are the procedures for loss of cabin altitude?
Descend below FL250, preferably below 18,000’ MSL if able (13,000’ MSL or less if oxygen equipment does not work)
What are time restrictions for cabin altitude DCS prevention?
21,000' <=altitude<22,000' 200 min 22,000' <=altitude<23,000' 120 min 23,000' <=altitude<24,000' 70 min 24,000' <=altitude<25,000' 45 min 25,000' <=altitude 0 min
When must position lights be on?
Between official sunset and sunrise and when an engine is running or starting (or when being towed or parked in area which may create hazard)
When must anti collision or strobe light be on?
Just prior to engine start until engine shutdown
When must landing lights be on?
When takeoff clearance is received, when taking off at an airport without an operating control tower or when operating below 10,000’ MSL (or when on an active runway, including taxiing)
When converging at approximately the same altitude (except head-on) which aircraft has the right away?
The aircraft to the other’s right
What is right-of-way priority?
Balloons, gliders, aircraft towing or refueling, airships, rotary or fixed wing
If aircraft are approaching head-on what should they do?
Alter course to the right
Who has right of way in the case of overtaking aircraft?
The overtaken aircraft. The overtaking aircraft must alter course to the right.
Who has right of way in case of landing?
Aircraft on final approach and if multiple on final approach, then the aircraft at the lowest altitude
