A

If a pilot operating in controlled airspace requests a clearance to penetrate Class F Advisory airspace or fly closer to it than separation minima would permit without permission from the user agency, advise the pilot that you are unable to provide an IFR clearance. If the pilot insists on penetrating the Class F Advisory airspace[ or flies closer to it than separation minima permit, issue an advisory.

Q

reduced vertical separation minimum (RVSM)

A

The application of 1000-ft vertical separation at and above FL 290 between aircraft approved to operate in reduced vertical separation minimum airspace.

11.7.2 Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) Airspace VSM airspace is all airspace within CDA from FL 290 to FL 410 inclusive as defined in the DAH (TP 1820) and depicted in Figure [4].

20
Q

RVSM Aircraft
non-RVSM aircraft

A

RVSM Aircraft
An aircraft that meets reduced vertical separation minimum (RVSM) requirements for certification and for operator approval.

non-RVSM aircraft
An aircraft that does not meet reduced vertical separation minimum (RVSM) requirements for certification and/or for operator approval.

21
Q

Do not clear a non-RVSM aircraft to enter RVSM airspace unless the aircraft is any of the following:

A
  • A state aircraft
  • On an initial delivery flight
  • An aircraft that was formerly RVSM-certified but has experienced an equipment failure and is being flown to a maintenance facility for repair/re-certification
  • A mercy or humanitarian flight (flights requesting medical priority)
  • A photographic survey aircraft
  • Conducting a flight check of a NAVAID
  • Conducting a monitoring/certification or developmental flight
22
Q

Provided a non-RVSM aircraft will be separated from other aircraft by the applicable vertical, lateral, or longitudinal separation minimum,[19] you may do either of the following:

A
  • Clear the aircraft to climb or descend through RVSM airspace
  • Level-off the aircraft in RVSM airspace for traffic management
23
Q

If informed that an RVSM aircraft operating within RVSM airspace is no longer RVSM-certified due to an in-flight equipment failure:

A
  • When traffic permits, do either of the following:
    o Establish 2000 feet vertical separation or another form of separation with other aircraft in RVSM airspace
    o Issue a clearance out of RVSM airspace
  • Obtain the pilot’s intentions
  • If necessary, pass traffic information
  • Amend the SSR equipment suffix in the flight plan, as appropriate
  • If appropriate, advise adjacent units/sectors
  • Notify the supervisor
24
Q

To have RVSM applied to their operations, the following mandatory RVSM equipment must be operating normally on each flight before entering RVSM airspace:

A

a. Two independent primary altitude measurement systems:
b. one automatic altitude keeping device; and
c. one altitude alerting device.

25
Q

29
Q

Airborne Wake Turbulence Separation

When applying wake turbulence separation with ATS surveillance, use a minimum indicated in the table below for any of the following situations:

A
  • An aircraft is operating at the same altitude in front of another aircraft.
  • An aircraft is crossing an altitude in front of another aircraft.

Q

Jet Stream and East High

A

The Jet streams flow west to east around 100KTS. Aircraft flying east will try and pickup the jet stream and aircraft flyign west will try to avoid it
