139
Q

Normally, tanker orbit patterns are located within a rectangle, 60 nm long, 25 nm wide with left turns. While established in and awaiting their receivers, tanker aircraft:

A

Must receive clearance from the box to the IP, if airspace is desired

140
Q

T/F: Routing and altitude(s) of aircraft established on an approved ALTRV shall not be changed except in the interest of safety of flight or as outlined in Chapter 3 of JO 7610.4P.

A

True

141

143
Q

If operating on an ALTRV and mission is to be delayed beyond the AVANA time, rescheduling the ALTRV, _______.

A

Will normally be in 24-hour increments after the original schedule; can be in less than the time specified previously, subject to CARF discretion and after approval from the affected ARTCC/CERAP/HCF
