Flight Rules & Approach

Question 1

What is standard holding turn direction?

Answer 1

Right

Question 2

What is standard leg length for holding pattern?

Answer 2

At or below 14,000’ - 1 min

Above 14,000 - 1.5 mins

Question 3

VOR Service Volumes

Answer 3

Terminal - 1000’-12000’ = 25nm

Low - 1000’-18000’ = 40nm

High - 1000’-14500’ = 40nm
14500’-18000’ = 100nm
18000’-45000’ = 130nm
45000’-60000’ = 100nm

Question 4

What are the types of Navigation?

Answer 4

Class I Navigation - Flight conducted entirely within the designated service volumes of a VOR.

Class II Navigation - Flight conducted with all or part outside the service volumes of a VOR.

Question 5

What altitudes are the Jet Airways located?

Answer 5

FL180 to FL450

Question 6

Aircraft Approach Categories

Answer 6

Cat A - 0-90kts
Cat B - 91-120kts
Cat C - 121-140kts
Cat D - 141-165kts
Cat E - Above 165kts

Question 7

When are you considered established on course or on the approach?

Answer 7

Once within half full scale deflection.

Question 8

When should you stay clear of the ILS Critical Area?

Answer 8

When weather conditions are below 800’-2sm

Question 9

Holding Pattern Speeds

Answer 9

6000'-below = 200kts
6001'-14000' = 230kts
14001'-above = 265kts

Question 10

When should you start slowing for a holding pattern?

Answer 10

3 minutes from the fix

Question 11

How to determine the holding pattern entry?

Answer 11

Place the holding fix in the center of your HSI
Draw the radial to hold on pointing in to fix
Determine if standard (Right) turns or non standard
Determine the entry type

Question 12

What is needed to descend below DH or MDA?

Answer 12

The aircraft must continuous be in a position from which a descent to a landing can be made at a normal rate of descent using normal maneuvers.

Must have the prescribed visibility for the type of approach.

Must have ONE of the following
     The approach light system which allows you to     descend to 100' above TDZE 
     Red terminating bars
     Red side row bars
     Threshold
     Threshold markings
     Threshold lights
     REIL's
     VASI/PAPI's
     TDZ or  TDZL
     Runway or runway markings
     Runway lights

Question 13

RVR to Visibility

Answer 13

1/4sm = 1600'
1/2sm = 2400'
3/4sm = 4000'
1sm = 5000'

Question 14

When should a missed approach be initiated?

Answer 14

Arrival at the DH or MDA without the prescribed items insight.

Anytime when the you lose sight of the runway

If you lose it on a circling approach turn toward the runway to execute a missed approach.

Question 15

Meters to Feet

Answer 15

550m = 1800'rvr
750m = 2400'rvr
900m = 3000'rvr
1300m = 4200'rvr
