Final Approach

Question 1

Precision

Answer 1

PAR (verbal instructions)

ILS

Question 2

Non-Precision

Answer 2

ASR (verbal)
Localizer
VOR
GPS

Question 3

Precision
Non-Precision
pitch/power

Answer 3

21% LOL

16% 1 NL

Question 4

When does the final approach begin?

Answer 4

FAF

Glideslope intercept point (zig zag arrow)

Question 5

When does the final approach end?

Answer 5

MAP

Question 6

MAP for precision approach?

Answer 6

DA (you will follow glidepath gradient until you reach the DA as indicated by your altimeter)

Question 7

non-precision MAP?

Answer 7

Descend to MDA and level off
Continue toward the MAP until you hit the VDP

MAP identified by timing from FAF or DME

Question 8

Using DME hold

Answer 8

Tune the frequency of facility providing DME
Press DME hold
tune localizer frequency

(this happens if facility doesn’t have their own DME and you need to use a nearby vortac to tell you when you’re at the FAF)

Question 9

ILS rules for glideslope deviation

Answer 9

more than 1 dot below or 2 above = you can’t descent lower than the published localizer MDA (you must recapture it before descent)

Question 10

ILS rules for Course deviations

Answer 10

2 dot deflection of the CDI occurs on final approach = you must discontinue and execute missed approach

Question 11

LOC approach

Answer 11

non-precision aka no glideslope. you may or may not have DME (so you may have to use DME hold)

Question 12

VOR approach

Answer 12

Using CDI as guideline (1 dot deflection = 5 degrees off course)

FAF might be:
station passage
radial/DME fix
no designated FAF (VOR located on airfield)

Question 13

GPS approach
