Q

Difference between telling 2 to “go” or “push” to a channel, what about Aux Freq change

A

“go” 2 must acknowledge with “2” and push 2 can go to the channel an wait for check-in, Lead will add Victor to call “C/S go channel 11 Victor”

Can be directed from Fingertip or Route, but if in Fingertip 2 will move to route. 2 will become 1 passing the 3/9 line (canopy bows aligned) and give headnod. New 1 will turn on TAS/Swqk and check inflight on AUX. Formation will rejoin to position lead change was initiated

A

1500’ and 3 SM vis

75’ RWY

50
Q

Interval Takeoff

A

no

72
Q

VOR/DME-E 1 will place 2 on what side

A

left

73
Q

Iis a second formation approach authorized

A

Yes, if first attempt was denied or ended in low approach but must have been briefed, traffic pattern allows and approach/ landing required

74
Q

what must be completed before a formation split

A

an Alpha check to ensure good navaids, and lead must coordinate with RAPCON. after lead must specifically tell 2 he’s cleared off

75
Q

Formation Go-around

A

1 will smoothly add power to 75% (let 2 know on AUX)

76
Q

2 passing 1 on T/O

A

if 2 overruns 1, check in Max perform individual takeoff. Follow 1s direction or change lead

77
Q

One A/C aborts T/O during wing T/O

A

that A/C will say “aborting” and other will check max and takeoff, if interval 2 should consider aborting also

78
Q

If entire formation needs to abort whats the call

A

“C/S flight abort, abort, abort”

79
Q

Three times when the 1 position is offered

A

Emergency occurs
broke out of wx and able to go VFR
on final with field in sight and clearance

80
Q

Engine problem in formation

A

bad A/C will take lead and perform a PEL or Forced landing, chase A/C can stay or be sent ahead to check conditions (i.e. cloud bottoms, traffic pattern, RWY condition)

81
Q

NORDO in formation

A

NORDO A/C will stay or go 2, while 1 coordinate for an overhead, if in fingertip and 2 goes NORDO move to route and give 1 visual signals, rock wings continuously if needed, if diverting show NORDO A/C pink pages
