Air traffic/air space rules/runway markings Flashcards
Which aircraft has the right of way over the other aircraft?
1) Aircraft refueling other aircraft.
2) airship
3) glider
Glider
If the aircraft are different categories, a glider has the right of way over an airship and airplane or rotorcraft
An airplane and an airship are converging. If the airship is left of the airplane position, which aircraft has the right of way?
The airship
If the aircraft are of different categories, and airship has the right of way over an airplane or a rotorcraft.

A blue segmented circle on a sectional chart to pick which class airspace?
Class D
What designated airspace associated with an airport becomes inactive when the control tower at the airport is not in operation
Class D, which then becomes class E.

If an airport is class E to the surface, it indicates what?
There is a precision approach to the airport. This is to protect incoming IFR flights. And keep VFR traffic away
Class E airspace with a dash magenta line has a floor of
The surface
Class E airspace has a floor of either a floor of either
700 AGL or 1200 AGL except around a non-towered airport where it extends to the surface
An airport with a dashed blue circle around it on a sectional usually denotes what altitudes…..
Class D airspace from the surface to 2500 feet, within an 5 NM radius unless indicated to the contrary by a number with a segmented square.
