Chapter 3.3 - Exam Review Flashcards
True or False In Non-Controlled Airspace, Aircraft movements are not controlled by an Air Traffic Controller and VFR Pilots must provide their own separation to avoid collisions?
True.
A clearance from ATC is required before entering controlled Airspace. What is this clearance called?
Airspace Clearance.
Name the two types of Civil Control Zones?
- Class C.
- Class D.
True or False. Training Aircraft usually use the last three letters of their registration marking as their Callsign?
True.
Instructions by a ‘controller’ to Pilots in controlled airspace to separate traffic are given by the (ATC Service/Flight Information Service)?
ATC Service.
Advice on known traffic and operational information given by a ‘controller’ to Pilots in Non-Controlled Airspace is called the (SAR Alerting Service/Flight Information Service)?
Flight Information Service.
A control tower, and therefore an Aerodrome Control service, only operates at Aerodromes within a (Restricted Airspace/Control Zone)?
Control Zone.
When departing an Aerodrome in controlled Airspace and establishing initial communications with a ground station, what should be transmitted?
Ground station’s Callsign followed by Aircraft’s Callsign.
How are all subsequent transmissions (from the same Pilot and ground station) prefixed?
Aircraft’s Callsign.
When departing an Aerodrome in Non-Controlled Airspace, initial contact will be with (a particular Aircraft/Aircraft collectively)?
Aircraft collectively.
What Callsign is used when communicating with Aircraft collectively in Non-Controlled Airspace away from the vicinity of a non-towered Aerodrome?
All Stations.
What is the normal form of acknowledgement used by a Pilot or ground station in Radio transmissions?
Aircraft’s Callsign.
What is the generic Callsign for the ground stations that provide ‘on request’ flight information service in both controlled and Non-Controlled Airspace?
FLIGHTWATCH.
Flight information areas (FIAs) are the smaller, separate areas of (Controlled/Non-Controlled) Airspace to which separate frequencies are allocated?
Non-Controlled.
What is the Callsign for Aerodrome Control in Class C Airspace?
‘(Location) TOWER’.
What is the Callsign for Surface Movement Control (SMC) in Class C Airspace?
‘(Location) GROUND’.
If Aerodrome Control and Approach Control are combined, what Callsign would you use in Class C Airspace?
‘(Location) TOWER’.
Is an Airways Clearance required to enter and depart a Class C or D Aerodrome?
Yes.
When is it necessary to obtain the takeoff and landing information from the ATIS broadcast when departing from or approaching to land at a ‘primary’ Aerodrome (2)?
- Prior to Taxiing for Takeoff.
- Prior to entering Control Zone for Landing.
The APP, ATIS, SMC, and ACD frequencies for a ‘primary’ Aerodrome can be found in (ERSA/VTC)?
ERSA.
What is the Callsign for Aerodrome Control in Class D Airspace?
‘(Location) TOWER’.
What is the Callsign for Surface Movement Control (SMC) in Class D Airspace?
‘(Location) GROUND’.
When is it necessary to obtain the takeoff and landing information from the ATIS broadcast when departing from or approaching to land at a Class D Aerodrome (2)?
- Prior to Taxiing for Takeoff.
- Prior to entering Control Zone for Landing.
The ATIS and SMC frequencies for a Class D Aerodrome can be found in (ERSA/VTC)?
ERSA.
There (is/is not) an APP/DEP frequency associated with a Class D ‘training’ Control Zone?
Is not.
Are traffic movements at Non-Controlled Aerodromes subject to ATC clearance?
No.
An advisory traffic call to provide information to other Aircraft in the vicinity is known as a (Broadcast/Report) at non-towered Aerodromes?
Broadcast.
What does the abbreviation CTAF mean?
Common Traffic Advisory Frequency.
If the ERSA FAC entry for an Aerodrome shows ‘CERT’ or ‘REG’, what does this mean?
Radio is mandatory for operations of the Aerodrome.
True or False. At non-towered Aerodromes, procedures require that Aircraft Callsigns are prefixed with the Aircraft type?
True.
What is the format of standard positional broadcasts at non-towered Aerodromes (5)?
- (Location) TRAFFIC.
- (Aircraft Type) – (Callsign).
- (Position).
- (Intentions).
- (Location).
