AWOPS Flashcards
Decision Height is defined as:
(A) Height above the runway, based on the characteristics of the airplane and its fail-operational automatic landing system.
(B) The wheel height above the runway elevation by which a go around must be initiated if adequate visual reference cannot be established.
(C) It is the height above the runway elevation at which a missed approach can be initiated.
B
The elevation of the highest point in the touchdown zone.
Runway elevation
DH recognition must be by means of the height measured by the radio altimeter. True or false.
True
It is the range over which the pilot of an aircraft on the centerline of a runway can see the surface markings or the lights delineating the runway or identifying its centerline.
Runway Visual Range or RVR
It is the range over which a pilot of an aircraft in the final stages of the approach or landing can see the markings or the lights as described in the RVR definition.
Slant Visual Range or SVR
What is meaning of RVR?
(A) Pilot’s visibility at minima.
(B) “Runway Visual Range (RVR)” means the range over which the pilot of an aircraft on the centerline of the runway can see the runway surface markings or the lights delineating the runway or identifying its centerline.
(C) Also known as the Slant Visual Range (SVR).
(D) RVR is only required for Category 3 operations.
B
For a twin-engine aircraft, what is the maximum flight time with single-engine cruise speed to a takeoff alternate when the aircraft is NOT authorized for EDTO?
(A) 3 hrs (B) 1 hr (C) 2 hrs (D) 1.5 hrs (E) 2.5 hrs
B
What is the minimum capability required for CAT III A?
(A) CAT III Single
(B) CAT III Dual
(C) Either CAT III Single or CAT III Dual
(D) None required
A
Which of the following statements is correct about the takeoff minima?
(A) Minimum RVR for takeoff depends on the aircraft type only.
(B) Takeoff minima for Category C aircraft can be below 125 m without CAAP approval.
(C) Takeoff with RVR less than 400 m is considered LVTO.
C
Which of the following is the approved takeoff minimum for CEBU PACIFIC?
(A) RVR 125 m on all airports
(B) RVR 250 m at airports with runway edge lighting only
(C) RVR 200 m at all airports
(D) RVR 400 m provided runway centerline lights are available.
B
Which of the following needs to be taken into consideration in case of a rejected takeoff?
(A) Loss of streaming effect.
(B) Centerline lights change to alternate red and white with 300 m runway remaining.
(C) Centerline lights change to alternate red and white with 600 m runway remaining.
(D) Centerline lights change to alternate red and white with 700 m runway remaining.
A
Identify the correct statement about CAT III B operations?
(A) In operation with DH, minimum authorized touchdown zone RVR is 75 m.
(B) In operation without DH, visual contact prior to touchdown is not required.
(C) In operation without DH, at least one centerline light is required.
B
