14 CFR Part 91.103-153, Subpart B Flashcards
As a preflight action, for a flight not in the vicinity of an airport of departure, the Pilot in Command must become familiar with all available information concerning the flight. As a minimum, this information must include:
Any known traffic delays, fuel requirements, alternate airports, and weather reports and forecasts.
Part 91 requires that all passengers be briefed on how to fasten and unfasten their safety belts or shoulder harnesses. This part also requires that each person on board should fasten their safety belt or harness during: (Choose the least restrictive correct option.)
Movement on the surface, takeoff, and landing
When is it allowable to operate an aircraft in formation flight?
By arrangement with the Pilot in Command of each aircraft in the formation.
True or False? Aircraft flying under IFR have no obligation to exercise vigilance to “see and avoid” other aircraft.
False. If weather conditions permit, all pilots must exercise “see and avoid” regardless of flight rules.
Two aircraft of the same category are converging at about the same altitude. Which aircraft has the right-of-way?
The one to the right has the right-of-way. The one on the left must change course.
Consider the aircraft in the visual. All three are on final approach to the airport. Aircraft A and C are moving more quickly than B. On their current courses, A will cut in front of B, and C will converge with B. Who has the right-of-way to land and who must change their courses?
B has the right-of-way because neither A nor C has the right to overtake B under the landing right-of-way rules. A and C must change their courses
No person may operate an aircraft in the airspace underlying a Class B area designated for an airport or in a VFR corridor designated through such Class B airspace at a indicated airspeed of more than:
200 Knots
What is the minimum altitude for an airplane flying over a congested area? __________ above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of __________ from the aircraft.
1,000 feet; 2,000 feet
For any given operation at higher altitudes, the lowest useable flight level is:
Determined by the atmospheric pressure (current altimeter setting).
You’re in flight approaching your destination airport, and you’ve lost radio communications. The air traffic control tower is signaling you with an alternating red and green light. What does this mean?
Exercise extreme caution.
Unless otherwise indicated, when approaching to land at an airport without an operating control tower in Class G airspace, each airplane pilot must:
Make all turns to the left.
If taking off from a satellite airport without an operating control tower located in Class D airspace, when must the pilot of a VFR flight contact the ATC facility having jurisdiction over the airspace?
As soon as practicable after departure.
For operations through Class C airspace, all pilots must establish two-way radio communications with the ATC facility providing services:
Prior to entering that airspace.
According to Part 91, when barometric pressure exceeds or will exceed 31 inches of mercury:
No aircraft may be operated contrary to the requirements established by the Administrator and published in a NOTAM issued under this section.
Assuming normal cruising speed, an airplane flying in VFR conditions at night must carry enough fuel to fly to the first point of intended landing and then fly for an additional:
45 minutes
