Q

When do you use checklists?

A

Preflight through before leaving aircraft checks. While airborne, when time does not permit the utilization of checklist or when it would become a safety hazard, required checks may be completed from memory

Must be used while making maintenance operational checks, MTF, and preventative checks

26
Q

Army aircraft will fly on an IFR flight plan except

A

Flight is primarily for VFR training
Time will not permit completion under
Mission can only be accomplished under VFR
Excessive ATC departure, en route, or terminal delays are encountered
Hazardous weather conditions must be avoided

27
Q

When does a weather forecast become void?

A

90 minutes

28
Q

When is an alternate airfield required?

A

Radar required to execute the approach
NAVAIDs are unmonitored
Predominate wx is less than 400-1

An alternate is not required if descent from enroute minimum altitude for IFR operation, approach, and landing can be made in VFR conditions

29
Q

1000’ below
1000’ above
1000’ horizontal

38
Q

What is required of the PC for weight and balance?

A

Accuracy of the 365-4 and that a completed DD 365-4 is aboard the aircraft to verify that the weight and center of gravity limits will remain within allowable tolerance for entire flight

39
Q

If you do not have 50 hours of WX time as a PC, what are your take off minimum requirements?

A

100’, 1/4 SM vis or 1200 RVR
