Q

Who is responsible for terrain clearance during departures?

A

It is the pilot responsibility to maintain terrain clearance except that when being radar vectored at certain altitudes until the pilot is being cleared a visual approach or commences an instrument approach or is instructed to maintain clearance visually.

Q

When must an aircraft be established on track by?

A

5nm unless following a SID.

18
Q

If frequency change instructions have been given before take-off by when must pilots establish contact with the departure/approach controller?

A

ASAP, preferably within 1 nm from takeoff

19
Q

By when can a pilot expect a frequency change after take-off?

A

Prior to reaching 2000ft.

20
Q

What speeds should be flown:

  • Below 10,000ft?
  • 20nm from touchdown
  • 10nm from touchdown or IAF
  • 5nm from touchdown
A
  • 250kts or the speed published on the star
  • 230kts
  • 186-160kts
  • 160-150kts
21
Q

By when do the promulgated speeds have to be established?

A

On or just before reaching the promulgated point. (E.g.: 160kts on or just before reaching 5nm)

22
Q

During a visual approach by day how low can an aircraft descend?

A
  • for IFR not lower than 500ft above lowest CTA step

- for IFR and VFR not lower than CAR 157

23
Q

During a visual approach by night how low can an aircraft descend?

A
  • LSALT/MSA
  • DGA steps
  • 500 ft above CTA steps
  • radar vector altitude
24
Q

During a visual approach by night, when can an aircraft descend below LSALT/MSA, DGA, MVA, or 500ft above CTA steps?

A
  • within circling area
  • within 5nm established not below on slope of PAPI or T-VASIS (7nm if REY has ILS)
  • within 10nm established not below on slope of ILS/GLS (14nm for RWY 16L/34L Sydney)
25
Q

Is an RPT aircraft allowed to depart a non-controlled aerodrome without ATC clearance?

A

Normally the pilots should attempt to contact the local CEN station before taxi, but if this is not possible then take-off may be completed on a broadcast basis as long as:

  • contact with the ground operation is established with immediate access to a phone, or
  • a SARTIME for departure of not more than 30min from EOBT has been submitted.
26
Q

Within how many miles of transiting an aerodrome should a pilot monitor the local CTAF frequency?

A

10nm

27
Q

Which direction is a standard circuit pattern?

A

Left hand

28
Q

What is the max recommended speed of aircraft in a circuit pattern?

A

200kts

29
Q

What squawk code should an aircraft with communications failure transmit?

A

7600

30
Q

During take-off in a non-controlled aerodrome, what distance must be established between an aircraft taking off and another lining up for take-off?

A

The preceding aircraft should be:

  • Passing the upwind end threshold or
  • Have commenced a turn or
  • If the rwy is more than 1800m long it is airborne and at least 1800m ahead
  • If both aircraft are below 2000kg MTOW the preceding aircraft is at least 600m ahead.
31
Q

What is the recommended circuit height for:

  • High performance jets and turbo-props? (150kts or more)
  • Medium performance piston (55 kts - 150 kts)
  • Low performance ultralights/heli (max 55 kts)
A
  • 1500 ft AGL
  • 1000 ft AGL
  • 500 ft AGL
32
Q

What must be included in a taxi report to CEN at a non-controlled aerodrome?

A
  • Aircraft type
  • POB (not RPT)
  • IFR
  • Location
  • Destination/Departure Quadrant/Intentions
  • Runway to be used.
33
Q

If only one radio is present or an aircraft cannot monitor the the CEN frequency at a CTAF aerodrome, what must the pilot do?

A

The pilot must report to ATC that they will be transferring to CTAF (Location and Frequency).

34
Q

What is the recommended distance for an aircraft from the departure end of the runway before turning to the opposite of the circuit direction during a departure?

A

3 nm

35
Q

Within how many miles of an aerodrome must an aircraft be established when departing?

A

5 nm except when following a SID

36
Q

What must be included in the departure report from a CTAF?

A
  • Time
  • Outbound track (or tracking to intercept track)
  • Intended cruising level
  • ETA for first enroute reporting point.
37
Q

By what distance should a inbound reporting call on the local CTAF frequency be made to other aircraft?

A

10 nm or a distance commensurate with the speed and workload of an aircraft.

38
Q

By what height should and aircraft be established on finals?

A

500 ft

39
Q

Are straight-in approaches allowed?

A

They are not recommended. If they are flown the following should be applied:

  • It should not provide conflict with other aircraft already in the circuit
  • Must be established on final not less than 3 nm
  • Transponder and lights should be turned on
  • Aircraft on base have right of way
40
Q

Within how many minutes after the ETA should the SARTIME be cancelled or extended?

A

10 min
