FF104 Flashcards
You receive the following ATC departure instructions when you call for clearance prior to takeoff:
“Navy 452 cleared as filed. Maintain 10,000. On departure fly runway heading until passing 1000, then turn left to heading 210° to intercept the Corpus Christi 184° radial. Cross LOCOE intersection at or above 8000. Departure Control frequency will be 307.9. Squawk 5471.”
Based on these instructions, when do you stop flying heading 210°?
When intercepting the Corpus Christi 184° radial
Review the departure instructions again.
“Navy 452 cleared as filed. Maintain 10,000. On departure fly runway heading until passing 1000, then turn left to heading 210° to intercept the Corpus Christi 184° radial. Cross LOCOE intersection at or above 8000. Departure Control frequency will be 307.9; squawk 5471.”
If your aircraft was not capable of climbing to 8000 feet or above by LOCOE intersection what should you do?
Inform the controller
When you are flying a VFR departure, what is your primary reference to maintain your departure
ground track?
Ground points
A VFR departure routing may have either formal instructions or be developed by the pilot flying the
aircraft.
True
General procedures for all departures includes what?
Receiving and understanding departure instructions
Resolving questions and aircraft limitations
Adhering to departure instructions
In the T-6A what is the climb airspeed, and what is it used for?
160 KIAS
To provide a good rate of climb and improved forward visibility
In the T-6A what type of climb will you normally use?
Constant airspeed climb at 160 KIAS
What is the correct procedure for performing a climb to altitude after takeoff?
Hold the takeoff attitude, accelerate to 160 KIAS and adjust pitch attitude slightly to maintain
airspeed.
If you notice the airspeed is 5 knots fast, what pitch adjustment should you make to correct back to 160 KIAS?
Raise the nose slightly
During a normal climb, you notice the airspeed is 155 KIAS. What corrections should you make to correct back to 160 KIAS?
Lower the nose slightly
Because of the loss of vertical lift in a climbing turn, what procedures should you follow if you must turn in a climb?
Use shallow-bank (
In the T-6A the best rate of climb airspeed is?
140 KIAS
You are taxiing to depart on Runway 31C at Laughlin AFB and receive the following ATC departure instructions:
“Texan 23 is cleared as filed. Maintain FL 240. On departure fly runway heading until passing 2000 feet, then turn right to heading 070° to intercept the Laughlin 023° radial direct to Rocksprings. Cross Rocksprings NAVAID at or above FL 240. Departure Control Frequency will be 264.8; Squawk 5130.”
Based on these instructions when do you stop flying heading 070°?
Intercepting the Laughlin 023° radial
What is the correct procedure for initiating a climb from a cruise airspeed above 160 KIAS?
Simultaneously increase the power to maximum and the pitch to above the normal climb pitch picture until the airspeed bleeds off to 160 KIAS then lower the pitch to maintain speed.
In the T-6A what type of climb will you normally use?
Constant airspeed climb of 160 KIAS
When you are flying a VFR departure, what is your primary reference to maintain your departure ground track?
Ground points
When you roll into a turn, what happens to (vertical) lift as you increase bank?
It decreases (horizontal lift increases)
What are two types of departures?
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) Departure
Visual Flight Rules (VFR) Departure
When would you fly an IFR Departure?
In instrument flight conditions IMC
What does a line below an altitude indicate?
If there is a line below a number as shown in the example, then the number signifies a minimum altitude. You must be at or above that altitude.
What does a line above an altitude indicate?
A line above the number indicates a maximum altitude. You must be at or below that altitude.
What does lines below and above an altitude indicate?
Lines above and below define a mandatory altitude, and indicate that you must be at that specified altitude.
What does numbers without any lines indicate?
Numbers without any lines are considered recommended altitudes.
An initial pitch attitude of approximately what will maintain 160 KIAS after T/O?
10°-12°
What is a good pitch picture for the best rate of climb airspeed of 140 KIAS?
Use approximately 14° nose up pitch with maximum power.
a good visual reference is to place the horizon on the bottom of the standby magnetic compass scale.
