22 LP Approaches Flashcards
Series of predetermine maneuvers by reference to flight instruments with specified protection from obstacles from the initial approach fix from which a landing can be completed or if not completed to a position which holding clearance criteria apply.
SIAP Standard instrument approach procedures
Although SIAP are designed for use in IFR conditions, they may also be executed in ______conditions
VFR
SIAPs are designed to:
- provide ______dicsent from ______environment to a point where a safe landing can be made.
- Guide aircraft through IFR conditions to a point where _________.
- IFR, en route
- runway environment can be seen
TERPs
Terminal instrument approach procedures
SIAP
Standard instrument approach procedures
What are the four separate segments an instrument approach procedure may have? Name them in order
- initial approach
- intermediate approach
- Final approach
- missed approach
The segment between the initial approach fix in the intermediate fix
Initial approach segment
Standard instrument approach procedures must begin at the ______ or ______ if there is no IAF
Initial approach fix – IAF
final approach fix – FAF
Where does the initial approach segment end?
Upon interception of the inbound approach course
The segment between the intermediate fix or the point and the final approach fix
Intermediate approach segment
The segment between the final approach fix or point and the runway, airport, or missed approach point
Final approach segment
The segment between the missed approach point or the point of arrival at decision height and missed approach fix at the prescribed altitude
Missed approach segment
This segment:
- is established for every instrument approach,
- it positively identify is the exact point when the final approach must be abandoned and this approach is initiated
- climb to a safe altitude, and usually a turn or heading to a point where the aircraft will enter holding.
Missed approach segment
What are the two instrument approach procedures (IAP)
Percision, non-Percision
What are the two Percision approaches?
Instrument landing system – ILS precision approach radar – PAR
Name the non-Percision approaches?
8
RNAV LOC VOR VOR/DME TACAN GPS NDB ASR-airport surveillance radar
Percision provides -lateral and vertical
while non-precision- provides lateral
True or false
True
If the glideslope component of an ILS approach is in operative can you still use the ILS?
Yes, the remainder of the procedure is classified as a localizer approach
If the localizer on an ILS approach goes out of service can you still use the ILS ?
No it’s not usable
What non-Precision approach is this?
Provide lateral guidance and for aircraft with the appropriate appointment, vertical guidance.
RNAV – GPS approach
What non-Precision approach is this?
approach that uses only the localizer components of an ILS system
LOC approach
What non-Precision approach is this?
Provides a radial to be intercepted and tracked, which leads to the airport. That approach may be to a specified runway or simply to the airport with a circling approach to a runway.
VOR approach
What non-Precision approach is this?
More accurate than the VOR approach because of the range/distance guidance provided by the DME
VOR/DME approach
What non-Precision approach is this?
Provides a nondirectional bearing that a pilot uses to fly a course to or from an airport. The least accurate of the instrument approaches
NDB approach
What non-Precision approach is this?
Used only by the military, provides azimuth and distance, similar to VOR/DME approach
TACAN approach
What non-Precision approach is this?
And approach conducted with surveillance radar that provides azimuth and range only. Approach is conducted with air traffic control personnel communicating with the pilot be a radio.
ASR approach
An aircraft must be in instrument flight conditions to execute an instrument approach procedure
True or false
False
The ILS is designed to provide_____
And approach Path with both Course and vertical guidance
And approach is termed “” Percision “” because it_____.
Provides lateral and vertical guidance
Which of the following components of an ILS is designed to provide pilot with Course guidance to the runway centerline?
The localizer
The purpose of the marker beacon is to_____
Identify a particular location
SIAP charts are commonly referred to as______
Approach plates
SIAPs are listed in what order in the US terminal procedures volumes?
Alphabetically, city first then airport
What are the six sections of the IAP
Margin information, pilot briefing information, plan view, airport diagram, profile view, minimums section
In margin identification on a SIAP, where would the airport location, procedure identification, and the airports latitude and longitude coordinates be found?
airport location and procedure identification -top and bottom,
latitude and longitude coordinates -bottom center
Where is a pilot briefing located on a SIAP chart?
This provides the pilot with information _____to complete the published approach procedure.
At the top of the chart
Required
On a pilot briefing information in ASAP chart, ________are listed in the ____in which they would be used during their approach.
