Flight Planning Flashcards
From what source can you obtain the latest FDC NOTAMs?
FAA AFSS/FAA
Preferred IFR routes beginning with a fix indicate that departing aircraft will normally be routed to the fix by
an instrument departure procedure (DP), or radar vectors
What CAS must be used to maintain the filed TAS of 158 at 8000 feet with a temperature of 0 degree C?
140 KCAS
What CAS must be used to maintain the filed TAS of 180 kts at 12,000 feet if the outside air temperature is +5 degree C?
147 KCAS
The time entered in an IFR flight stating the endurance should be based on which fuel quantity?
total useable fuel on board
What CAS should be used to maintain 128 kts TAS if the outside air temperature is +05 degree C at an altitude of 5000 feet?
119 KCAS
What CAS must be used to maintain the filed TAS of 155 kts at the planned altitude of 8000 feet if the outside air temperature is -5 degree C?
139 KCAS
What CAS must be used to maintain the filed TAS of 180 at an altitude of 8000 feet if the outside air temperature is +8 degree C?
157 KCAS
When may you use VFR waypoints when filing IFR?
Never. They are not recognized by the IFR system
What is the purpose of FDC NOTAMs?
To advise of changes in flight data which affect instrument approach procedure (IAP), aeronautical charts, and flight restrictions prior to normal publication
What CAS must be used to maintain the filled TAS of 156 kts at 11,000 if the outside air temperature is +05 degree C?
129 KCAS
What CAS should be used to maintain a planned 160 kts TAS at 11,000 feet if the outside air temperature is +5 degree C?
133 KCAS
When information is disseminated for a navigational facility, it will be located in
NOTAM (D) distribution
What information is contained in the Notices to airman publication (NTAP)?
current NOTAM (D) and FDC NOTAMs
Which sources of aeronautical information, when used collectively, provide the latest status of airport conditions (e.g., runway closures, runway lighting, snow conditions)?
Chart supplement, distant (D) NOTAMs, and FDC NOTAMs
