idk 3 UR MISSING 3.1

Question 1

Destination sign

Answer 1

Black writing, yellow background, arrow points to destination, usually for taxiing but outbound dest for takeoff i.e. B sign is to taxi route bravo

Question 2

Taxiway location sign

Answer 2

Black sign, yellow letters, tells u current taxi runway

Question 3

Taxiway directional signs

Answer 3

Like destination sign but for intersection to tell u what taxi way to go to (same black letters/yellow background)

Question 4

Boundary signs

Answer 4

Yellow w black picture of runway holding position

Two lines indicate side u need to hold on, cant go until u have ATC clearance, they can have centerline markings 150ft before runway holding position to say stop in 150ft..

Question 6

Runway holding position sign

Answer 6

Red with white letters, must hold here

Question 7

Yellow demarcation bar

Answer 7

3ft yellow bar seperating displaced threshold from blast pad, stop way, or taxiway that comes before the runway

Question 8

Runway vs taxiway

Answer 8

Runway no., taxiway letter

Question 9

Weather VFR

Answer 9

Visibility less than 3 SM, ceiling less than 1k ft

Question 10

Green and white beacon in class D during day

Answer 10

Weather not VFR

Question 11

Green/yellow/white beacon

Answer 11

Lighted heliport

Question 12

Beacon w two white flashes and green flash

Answer 12

Military airports

Question 13

Airport taxiway

Answer 13

Blue edge lights

Question 14

PCL pilot controlled lighting

Answer 14

High intensity lights turn on mic 7 times (turns everything on), med 5, low 3

Question 15

If no operating tower

Answer 15

Left turns are standard/comply with the airports departure traffic pattern

Question 16

If no operating tower

Answer 16

Left turns are standard/comply with the airports departure traffic pattern

Question 17

Enter airport traffic at

Answer 17

45 degrees to the downeind leg at 1000ft altitude AGL midpoint

Question 18

U land the dame direction

Answer 18

As the triangle points (tetraheadon), and in the opposite direction of the wind cone (against the wind), towards the cross bar end of the wind

Question 19

If no segmented circle

Answer 19

Traffic patterns will be on runway’s end

Question 20

Segmented circle

Answer 20

Means no need for operating tower, consists of wind direction indicator, traffic pattern indicator, segmented circle, landing strip indicator, landing direction indicator, on the landing strip indicator the long leg is the runway, the short leg is what turn u need to make to land in that direction, and there r two bc u need to turn into the wind, u want to land the same direction as the windsock goes from big to small

Question 21

Segmented circle parts

Answer 21

Acts as centralized point for other parts

Question 22

Traffic pattern indicator

Answer 22

X = runway closed, double arrow means only taxi/takeoff

Question 23

VASI

Answer 23

Visual approach slope indicators (lights for descent), two barred tier lights

Question 24

Glide path

Answer 24

Stay above until instructed to go lower, red always means low, white high, PAPI vs VASI, PAPI scale is 2.5-3.5, it provides obstruction clearance

Question 25

Wing tip vortices

Answer 25

Create wake turbulence during lift

Question 26

Greatest vortex strength when aircraft is

Answer 26

Heavy, clean, slow

Question 27

Flying near big jets

Answer 27

It affects your flight path/ drifts into downwind so dont fly below them and fly upwind

Question 28

Most dangerous wind

Answer 28

Light quartering wind, will push vortices into ur tailwind zone even in perfect takeoff

Question 29

Civilian transponder types

Answer 29

A,C, S selective

Question 30

Transponder type A

Answer 30

Gives ATC 4 dig squawk code (1200 normal VFR code (visual flight rules) to tell ATC ur not following air traffic, 7777 military interceptor, 7600 lost radio comms, 7700 emergency, 7500 hijack)

Question 31

Transponder type C

Answer 31

Gives squawk code + alt in 100ft increments to IRF interrogating radar facility, MUST set to transponder reply type C by setting function switch to alt unless ATC says otherwise, (use when above 10k ft MSL (unless 10ft MSL and less than 2.5k AGL), within 30 NM of B airport, within/above C airspace, or in ADIZ area, Air Defense Identification Zone)

Question 32

Transponder type S selective

Answer 32

Allows for TIS and TACAS (TCAS), traffic info system, traffic alert and collision avoidance system, meant for air traffic, no squawk but indiv call sign + permanent unit code, sends to TACAS, SSR, and ADS-B, secondary surveillance radar, received ground-based radar info for collision avoidance

Question 33

ATIS

Answer 33

automatic terminal info eervuce, non continous broadcast of non control info in high terminal areas (busy airports), essential but routine

Question 34

Atis includes

Answer 34

Weather report/active runways

Question 35

Atis forsnt include

Answer 35

Doesnt mention ceilings above 5k ft, or visibility past 5 SM

Question 36

After landing contact ground control when

Answer 36

Instructed by tower

Question 37

When cleared to taxi to the tunway

Answer 37

U can take other taxiways but not other runways

Question 38

When cleared to a runway

Answer 38

Ur not cleared for the runway j the runway runup, u have to wait for “lineup and wait”, u can then go on AR active runway, but have to notify tower ur ready for takeoff by telling them ur location (current runway + intersection)

Question 39

when under 10k ft

Answer 39

use landing lights to avoid crashes

Question 40

when changing/making flight plan w FFS (flight service station)

Answer 40

say the FFS and radio (Avery Radio)

Question 41

traffic information services

Answer 41

gives traffic advisories for other plane's locations using clock places, 3 is off right wing, 9 is off left wing, direction of other plane is told in miles, w altitude, w heading direction, told in ground position not heading bc its no wind condition

Question 42

when radio fails, tower can can communicate via lights

Answer 42

in day, respond by rocking wings, at night respond via lights, stay above air traffic pattern unitl u determine the flow of traffic and then u can join the traffic pattern and wait to see lights from the tower

Question 43

radio fails lights meaning on the ground

Answer 43

red/green=warning/beware, green=cleared for takeoff, flashing green=cleared to taxi, red=stop, flashing red= fuck off the runway is in use, flashing white= return to standing point on airport

Question 44

radio fails lights meaning in the air

Answer 44

red/green= beware, green= cleared to land, flashing green= return for landing, red= do not land and give way to another aircraft, no flashing white here, flashing red=not safe to land

Question 45

LAHSO

Answer 45

Land and hold short of runway/taxiway/intersection, used at airports w tower to inc capacity/dec traffic, before LAHSO make sure u can land in the ALD (available landing distance), dont do if u have a PPL, u can only LAHSO w a ceiling of 1k or more and visibility of 3 SM or more bc u need VFR conditions to see other aircraft

Question 46

ALD

Answer 46

Available landing distance info is in special notes section of chart supplements but u can ask ATC for it
