CFII Flashcards
What is RNP?
Required Navigation Performance
Level of accuracy of the system and the sensitivity of the course display
What are the RNP modes?
Enroute- Full scale deflection happens at 2NM
Terminal-Full scale deflection happens at 1NM (automatically happens 30NM from the airport
Approach- Full scale deflection happens at .3NM (automatically changes 2NM from the FAF)
What is a ceiling?
The height of the lowest layer of clouds that is reported BROKEN or OVERCAST, which isn’t classified as thin or partial
What is RNAV?
Area navigation which permits aircraft operation on any desired flight path within the coverage of ground /space based navigational aids
If you enter a DME arc on a 100 degree radial, what heading do you turn to?
Enter on the radial, +/- 90 degree for radial, +/- 10 degrees for heading
When are you considered established on a hold for teardrop, parallel, and direct entry?
Initial passage of the holding fix going in the correct direction on the inbound leg
How would you know you are abeam the holding fix?
Switches from TO to FROM
When is instrument rating required?
-While flying in IMC
-Fly in Class A airspace
-Special VFR at night
-Allows you to fly passengers at night with commercial certificate/fly passengers more than 50+ NM during the day
