Block of controlled airspace should be avoided notices will be Class 1 notam
What elevation does class D airspace go up to
2200’
Describe class C airspace
Atc mandatory permission required
Mode C transponder
Srf 4000’ 5 nm
From 1200’ -4000’ 10nm
What might be the reason for a class F restricted airspace
Forest fire or military use
Describe ATZ
Aerodrome traffic zone
Usually smaller volume airspace
Cylinder extension a few thousand feet
Radius of a few miles
How many flight information regions in Canada
7 closest is Kamloops
What does ADIZ stand for
Air defence identification zone
Class A Airspace is from to how high
18000(180) to 600 (60,000’)
What method of flight must be used in class A airspace and is permission required to enter
IFR fight only with ATC permission
Class B airspace is from-/- hights
12500-17999
Can VFR and IFR fly without permission in class B airspace
Yes with ATC approval
Class D airspace does ATC provide conflict resolution for VFR flights
Upon request if time and equipment permit
VFR class D minima All control zones
3 miles ahead
1 mile to cloud
500’ below clouds
Max air speed 3000-10000’
Below 3000’
250 kt
200 unless permitted
Uncontrolled airspace VFR minima
1 sm ahead
2000’ horizontal
500’ below
Below 1000’ 2 sm ahead and below clouds and must see the ground
Describe class G airspace
Uncontrolled
Do you need a radio to enter class E airspace
Not required
May require a transponder is designated areas
Do you receive conflict resolution in class E airspace
No
What is class G airspace
All remaining airspace not A—F
Where ATC has authority or control
Air routes are in what way different than air ways
Along Air routes there are no traffic control services
Describe an air route
Is from the surface up to class A airspace are 9 kt miles wide and are designated by colours and numbers like amber 5, blue route 7 Air routes exist mainly in the northern areas of Canada
List required documents for flight
Air worthyness certificate Aircraft registration Aircraft journey log Insurance Weight and balance Pilot license for the type of aircraft Medical certificate Radio license
How long can it be since you last flew before having to update
Must have acted as PIC or co pilot with in the past 5 years or have met the written examination requirements for the license within 12 months
Explain dual instruction
No person shall give instruction unless they hold a flight instructor rating,
What is required prior to taking passengers
Pilot must have within the 6 previous months completed 5 takeoffs and landings in the same type of aircraft
How much of density altitude change for 15 degrees F
1000’
Great circle has what characteristics
Shortest distance
Cut circle through Center
Must constantly adjust headings, compass
Rhumb lines
Don’t have to change heading
Every line of latitude is a rhumb line including the equator
Explain Rhumb lines
Straight line drawn on a transverse mecator proje
VTA is a rhumb line
Is a sectional chart is it a great circle?
Yes
Adjusting a compass for east variation you add or subtract?
Add
Westerly subtract
What is an isotonic line
A magnetic line that has passes through the magnetic field straight to the north pole
No variation
What is magnetic deviation
Local compass effects from items near the compass like metal
How often does the compass deviation get corrected
Annually
Will be a chart near the compass
When travelling east what elevation must you maintain odd or even
Odd
3500 5500 7500
