Q

You are on final turn, and a straight in has reported “2 miles” - can you start your final turn?

A

Do not begin the final turn after a straight-in has reported at 2 miles unless you have

Q

You are on final, behind preceding traffic. Can you land?

A

Do not cross the runway threshold to land until preceding aircraft are either airborne, clear of the runway, or a minimum separation of 3,000 feet exists when using alternate sides of the runway for similar aircraft. Minimum separation is 6,000 feet when not using alternate sides or when behind a dissimilar aircraft.

Q

For OCF-recoveries, what is the minimum airspace you should have above clouds?

A

7,000 feet below entry altitude (verify before initiating OCF entry)

20
Q

What altitude should you plan to recover from OCF (including dive recoveries)?

A

At least 3,000 feet above the clouds

21
Q

Can you perform contact recoveries during night or in IMC?

A

No! Practice contact recoveries only in day visual meteorological conditions (VMC).

22
Q

At what altitude should all aerobatic maneuvers, unusual attitudes, abnormal flight recoveries, practice lost wingman, extended trail, stalls, and slow flight be performed at?

A

Above 6,000 feet AGL (min. altitude for controlled ejection)

23
Q

What is the minimum altitude to begin OCF spin training?

A

13,500 feet MSL

24
Q

At what altitude should you ensure that spinning has stopped?

A

10,000 feet MSL

25
Q

What is the minimum en route and area altitude for a solo-student syllabus mission (except traffic pattern or during departure/RTB)?

A

5,000 feet AGL

26
Q

The minimum altitude for VFR nonlocal, point-to-point navigation missions is?

A

3,000 feet AGL

27
Q

What is the minimum altitude to complete configured aircraft slips for training in?

A

300 feet AGL

28
Q

Which maneuvers are classified as dual only maneuvers?

A

Stalls.

Stability demonstrations.

Nose-high recoveries.

Nose-low recoveries.

Inverted recoveries.

Uncontrolled airfield
operations.

OCF recoveries.

ELPs or any other simulated engine-out maneuvers.

Flaps up patterns or landings.

Straight-in approaches.

Slow-flight maneuvers.

Rolling takeoffs.

Low-closed patterns.

Low level navigation.

29
Q

What is the definition of extended daylight?

A

The period 15 minutes before official sunrise to 15 minutes past official sunset. At the home station and local auxiliary fields only, daylight
traffic and area operations are in effect during the extended daylight period.

30
Q

Which maneuvers are prohibited during night flying?

A

Aerobatics,

practice OCF recoveries,

practice stalls,

stability demonstrations,

practice contact recoveries,

practice ELPs, and practice

flaps up patterns landings

31
Q

Are solo students allowed to fly during night time?

A

No

32
Q

Can you fly formations during night time?

A

No

33
Q

What is minimum taxi separation during night time?

A

300 feet on centerline

34
Q

Landing and taxi lights during night time?

A

The landing and taxi lights will normally be used during
all night taxiing. EXCEPTION: When the lights might interfere with the vision of the pilot of an aircraft landing or taking off, taxiing aircraft may extinguish their landing and taxi lights. However, the taxiing aircraft will come to a stop if the area cannot be visually cleared without the landing and taxi lights.

35
Q

Anti collision light during night time?

A

Aircrews may turn off anti-collision lights during the hours of darkness while in the home base traffic pattern (based on local guidance).

36
Q

Can you fly overhead patterns at night time?

A

Only at the home base

37
Q

What are the requirements for night landings?

A

If not at the home field, you need to have an operational glidepath guidance. Visual descent path indicator or precision guidance systems constitute acceptable glide path guidance.

38
Q

Filing a flightplan at night

A

Do not file to a base of intended landing (other than the home station) unless there is an operable straight-in approach with glide path guidance. Night alternates must have an operational instrument straight-in approach with glide path guidance.

39
Q

Can you fly a non-precision approach at night?

A

Yes. At airfields other than the home field, descents below a minimum descent altitude (MDA) on a non-precision approach, require glide path guidance.
However, aircrews may perform practice approaches at facilities with no glide path
guidance if they descend no lower than the published MDA.

40
Q

Are you allowed to fly a circling approach at night time?

A

No visual circling allowed. You may perform the instrument portion of ex a VOR-A, but execute missed approach at MAP

41
Q

Can you perform airborne, simulated emergencies?

A

Yes, ELPs and flaps up operations will be briefed and only be conducted during daytime VMC. simulated emergencies will be discontinued if intercockpit communications cannot be maintained. Compound or multiple simulated emergencies are prohibited with the exception of ELPs.

42
Q

At which airfields may you fly an ELP?

A

Only at airfields with an approved AETC LOA

43
Q

Who may fly a chase aircraft?

A

Any formation-qualified IP

44
Q

What are the parameters for a chase aircraft?

A

Maneuver as necessary to observe performance, but is primarily responsible for aircraft separation. It will maneuver in a 30- to 60-degree cone out to a 1,000 feet.

45
Q

What are the altitude restrictions for the chase aircraft?

A

Not to stack lower than lead aircraft below 1,000 feet AGL. And unless safety or circumstance dictate otherwise, a chase aircraft will low-approach no lower than 300 feet AGL

46
Q

What are the considerations for engine failure for a solo student?

A

If a solo student experiences an engine failure (engine shutdown or not producing
sufficient power to sustain level flight), serious consideration should be given to ejection.
The student may attempt a forced landing with the following restriction: minimum runway
length 4,000 feet.
