lightning bolt symbols.
The traffic pattern altitude at the Auburn (AUN) airport is 1,000 feet AGL. Class E airspace begins at 700 ft AGL. May you practice landings under VFR when the AWOS is reporting a ground visibility of 2 miles?
No, Class E visibility requirements under 10,000 ft MSL are 3 SM.
If an airplane is consuming 9.5 gallons of fuel per hour at a cruising altitude of 6,000 feet and the groundspeed is 135 knots, how much fuel is required to travel 490 NM?
at 135 GS, it will take 3.63 hrs to go 490 NM (490/135 = 3.63) At 9.5 GPH it will take ~35 Gal (3.63 X 9.5) = 35
Given Distance Off-course, Distance-Flown, and Distance Remaining, how to calculate correction angle…
2 Steps (add the following):
NM Off/NM Flown x 60
NM Off/NM Remaining x 60
What is the acronym for a computerized command response system that provides automated weather, radio check capability, and airport advisory information selected from an automated menu by microphone clicks?
AUNICOM.
The terrain at the obstruction approximately 8 NM east southeast of the Lincoln Airport is approximately how much higher than the airport elevation?
The obstruction approximately 8 NM east-southeast of the Lincoln Airport (point 4) is marked as having an elevation of 1,245 ft. MSL, and a height of 297 ft. AGL. Thus, the terrain elevation at that point is 948 ft. MSL (1,245 – 297). The Lincoln Airport elevation is shown to be 121 ft. MSL, which is 827 ft. (948 – 121) lower than the terrain elevation at the obstruction.
What is the significance of R-2531? This is a restricted area…
Restricted areas are areas where UNUSUAL, often INVISIBLE, HAZARDS to aircraft EXIST. While not wholly prohibited, the flight of aircraft within these areas is subject to restrictions.
