(Volume 1 - Chapter 11, Paragraf 11.5.)

25
Q

26
Q

TERPS: When may you descent from the procedure turn completion altitude?

A

When established on the inbound segment

(Volume 1 - Chapter 11, Paragraf 11.7.3.)

27
Q

TERPS: During the 45°/180° reversal maneuver, when do you begin your 1 minute timing?

A

Upon initiating the 45° turn.

(Volume 1 - Chapter 11, Paragraf 11.7.4.1.)

28
Q

TERPS: When entering a procedure track, when may you use normal lead points to intercept the course?

A

If heading is within 90° of the procedure track course

(Volume 1 - Chapter 11, Paragraf 11.9.2.)

29
Q

TERPS: During a procedure track approach, where a descent is depicted at the IAF, when may you begin your descent?

A

and

  • On a parallel or intercept heading

(Volume 1 - Chapter 11, Paragraf 11.9.4.1.)

30
Q

TERPS: By which term are helicopter only approaches identified by?

A

“COPTER”

(Volume 1 - Chapter 11, Paragraf 11.11.)

31
Q

A

“The VDP is a defined point on the final approach course of a non-precision straight-in approach procedure from which a normal descent (approximately 3°) from the MDA to the runway touchdown point may be commenced, provided visual reference with the runway enviroment is established.”

(Volume 1 - Chapter 12, Paragraf 12.1.1.3.)

35
Q

TERPS: When must a ILS/LOC approach be discontinued?

40

A

Initiate a climbing turn towards the landing runway.

(Volume 1 - Chapter 14, Paragraf 14.3.2.)

45
Q

TERPS: Which 3 situations, dictate that you should perform a missed approach?

A
