Block 1 Review Flashcards
How do we do our jobs?
Safe, orderly, efficient while Planning, Executing and Monitoring.
Linkage
Automated or manual function to match Flight Plan Data and ATS Surveillance Data
Sqwak Code
HLA - 2000, LLA - 1000, -12500 = 1200, 12501+ - 14000, Glides - 1202, Emergency - 7500, 7600, 7700
Not Satisfied with Equipment
Inform Supervisor, Base action on direction from directives, supplement by supervisor direction
Alpha Data Tag
ACID, Wake Turb Category, SFI, Altitude Readout, VMI/VMR, GS, CJS
Transponders
Mode A, C, S. 7500,7600,7700. Instruct to Reset, state current code. else assign new code.
Number Groups
ACID, Type, Wind Speed, Cloud Height, VV, Clock, Date, Airway
Maintaining/ Reaching
200ft within assigned altitude
Vacated Altitude
300ft from Prevailing altitude
Deviation
300ft from Assigned altitude, or 200ft with VMI in same direction
AC Speeds
747 - Fast Speed Slow Climb
737 - Med Speed Med Climb
A320 - Med Speed Med Climb
C550 - Slow Speed Fast Climb
AC Speed Adjustments
IAS - 10 Knots
Mach - 0.01
Speed Restrictions
<10000 ft no more 250kt
<3000 ft no more 200kt
Transition Speed
The speed at which an aircaft transitions between Indicated airspeed and mach number
Cancelling Speed Restrictions
Except when cleared for approach advise to resume when necessary
RESUME-NORMAL-SPEED
Above does not cancel published speed
Traffic Info Classes of Airspace
Provided for C and D (VFR), Provide to Pilots in E unless; Workload, Equipment or Higher Priority
Flight Priority
First Come First Serve
- Prio to Sick and Injured
- Prio to Already at FL
- Prio to Leading AC
- AC Performance, Approach/Departure, Routes to be followed, Wake Turb Sep, AC Subject to ATFM
Same Track
In the application of separation, it’s an expression sued by air traffic controllers to identify identical tracks or tracks that converge or diverge at an angle of 1degree or 44 degrees inclusively
Why Vector? (7)
Separation, Spacing, Sequencing, Efficiency, Request, Traffic, Restricted AS
When Vector? (4)
Necessary for Separation, Noise Abatement, Operational Advantage, Pilot Request.
Heading vs Track vs Wind
Heading - Longitudinal Axis
Track - Projected on the earths surface
Wind - it blows
Navigational Assistance
Can be in the form of Position info, vectors, track and ground speed check
Vectoring Phrasing
T L/R # of Degrees
T L/R Heading #
T Fly Heading #
Vectoring Terminations
Cleared for Approach
Cleared for Hold
Cleared on Route (without need for Navigational Assistance)
Separation from Prominent Obstruction
5 Miles if position of obstruction is on CSiT or Nards
3 miles iff:
- Provide Terminal Control Clearance
- ATS Source includes MLAT/WAN, DND-NG/RSE
- CSit/NARDS displays max range 120 miles L/R
- Obstruction inclosed with Circular Buffer
Traffic Info
PPS likely to merge, Must be sperated by more than appropriate vertical separation minimum.
- AC is holding
Traffic Info When not to give? (6)
AC Maintains 1000ft OTT, Clear IFR to fly VFR, Multiple AC in same Holding Pattern, Pilot Requests, Deemed Necessary, Acknowledges a TA
Traffic Info Format
PDDTARO
Position - Oclock
Distance - part of Position
Direction - L/R, Opposite/Same
Type - of Aircraft
Altitude - comparison to AC
Report Point in Time
