What is range control required to coordinate with tower
request approval prior to small arms going Hot and when NW quadrant is HOT or cold.
What shall tower do prior to approving Small arms/northwest quadrant to go HOT
obtain concurrence and ARAC prior to giving approval to range
How is the FSS notified?
contact them via the GP-9 line or commercial line
Handles all situations related to aircraft in flight
Flight service station inflight

- 65
255. 4
LOU FSS freqs
- 45
255. 4
BNA FSS freqs
- 55
255. 4
Handles all situations concerning NOTAMS, flight data and SAR
FSS data
When are CVFR briefings held
on the second Friday of each month or as coordinated w/ the ATC chief
What is the minimum altitude for off-post flight
500 feet AGL except when lower altitude is required for wx avoidance
What are the initial actions under inadvertent IMC (single ship)?
climb to minimum altitude of 3000 MSL
maintain constant heading unless turning to avoid known obstacles
set transponder to 7700
contact approach to 118.1 or 269.525
What are the initial actions under inadvertent IMC (formation)?
climb to minimum altitude of 3000 MSL
altitude separation will be 500 feet w/ no a/c below 3000 MSL and no a/c above 6000MSL
maintain constant heading unless turning to avoid known obstacles
only lead set transponder to 7700
contact approach to 118.1 or 269.525
What are the procedures for simulated inadvertent IMC
depart restricted a/s prior to simulating IIMC when the intent is to terminate the simulated IIMC w/ an instrument approach
a/c may remain in restricted a/s when the intent is to terminate simulated IIMC w/in restricted a/s
Formations of 2 or more will coordinate with ARAC prior to initiating simulated IIMC
Declare “simulated IIMC”
squawk 1200 until ARAC assigns a different code
Practice RNAV approach are conducted under what conditions?
VMC conditions (and) VFR flight plan
What are the lost comm procedures while IIM and under ARAC control
proceed direct to AIRBE NDB and execure NDB,
emergency copter RNAV procdure, LOC, or ILS approach.
squawk 7600
What actions are taken if a VFR a/c requests radar assistance when it encounters or is about to encounter IFR wx conditions?
ask the pilot if he/she is qualified for and capable of conducting IFR flight
If a pilot is qualified for and capable of IFR flight, what needs to be requested of them?
to file an IFR flight plan
then, issue clearance to destination airport
If a pilot is states they are not qualified for or not capable of conducting IFR flight, or refuses to file an IFR flight plan, what actions are taken
Inform the pilot of airports where VFR conditions are reported (provide pertinent wx info and ask if they will elect to conduct VFR flight to a/p)
If it is not feasible or a VFR pilot refuses to conduct VFR flight, when can you provide radar assistance?
declares an emergency
if they refuse to declare an emergency, you can provide radar assistance if you determine the exact nature of radar services the pilot desires.
If a VFR pilot encounters IFR conditions, what info do you issue tot he pilot?
terrain/obstacle clearance minimum altitidue
if below terrain/obstacle min altitude, furnish a heading or radial on which to climb to reach appropriate altitude
What must be accomplished on a mode C equipped VFR a/c when VFR pilot encounters IFR conditions
7700
or) terminal - issue a beacon code that will permit terminal minimum safe altitude warning (MSAW
What radar assistance technique are used to a pilot not qualified to operate in IFR conditions
avoid radio freq changes except necessary for better comms
make turns while the a/c is in VFR conditions so it will flight straight in IFR conditions
lower gear and slow to approach speed while in VFR
avoid climb or descent while in a turn if in IFR
avoid abrupt maneuvers
vector a/c to VFR conditions
(.65) Apply non-radar or visual separation b/w which a/c
SVFR fixed wing a/c
SVFR fixed wing a/c and SVFR helos
SVFR fixed-wing and IFR a/c
Apply, non-radar, visual or IFR radar separation between which a/c
SVFR helicopters
SVFR helos and IFR a/c
When can alternate SVFR helo separation minima be established
when warranted by the volume and/or complexity of local helicopter operations
must be established in an LOA
Alternate SVFR separation between SVFR helicopter and an arriving/departing IFR a/c
1/2 mile - if the IFR a/c is less than 1 mile from landing a/p
1 mile - if the IFR a/c is 1 mile or more from a/p
What is the alternate SVFR sep between SVFR helos
1 mile
When can the alternate SVFR sep between SVFR helos be reduce to 200 feet
both helos are departing simultaneously on courses that diverge by 30 degrees
tower can determine this sep by reference to surface marking (or)
one of the departing helos is instructed to remain at least 200 feet from another
Do not assign a fixed altitude, under SVFR conditions, when applying what
vertical separation
clear the SVFR a/c at or below an altitude which is at least 500 feet below any conflicting IFR traffic but not below the MSA
Why are SVFR a/c not assigned fixed altitudes?
clearance from the clouds requirements
