Question 1

Wake turbulence Takeoffs and Landings

Answer 1

1) Landing - Land Prior to rotation point.
2) takeoff - takeoff prior to rotation point
3) 2 minutes for wake turbulence for heavy aircraft

Question 2

Calculate VDP

Answer 2

1) VDP = HAT / Gradient (normally 300 ft/nm)

2) Height above touchdown / 300 gives you distance from runway to start decent.

Question 3

Precision and Non Precision decent rates

Answer 3

1) Precision = Ground Speed x 10 / 2

2) Non Precision = Ground Speed x 10

Question 4

Calculating 90 degree turns

Answer 4

1) (True Airspeed / 60) - 2

Question 5

Calculating 60, 45 and 30 degree turns

Answer 5

1) 60 = 90 deg * .5
2) 45 = 90 deg * .333
3) 30 = 90 deg * (1/6)

Question 6

Standard vertical spacing RVSM and NON RVSM

Answer 6

1) RVSM - 1,000 feet sep

2) Non RVSM - 2,000 Feet sep

Question 7

TA - traffic Advisories vs Resolution Advisories

Answer 7

1) TAs = potential threat aircraft which may or may not be a problem.
2) RAs = Impediing collision advisory. It will direct a corrective action which should be followed in order to not crash into other

Question 8

What RNP level is EC-130

Answer 8

1) RNP 5

2) meaning 95% of the time the plane is within 5 NM of where the instruments tell us.

Question 9

Creating Circling Minimum

Answer 9

1) Find non precision approach HAT
2) round up 100 feet
2) GO to next 100 feet

so if 755 HAA = 800 + 100 = 900 HAA for circling approach.

Question 10

Circling Safe Zones

Answer 10

1) A = 1.3
2) B = 1.5
3) C = 1.7
4) D = 2.3
5 E = 4.5
