IFR

Question 1

What is a DME

Answer 1

Distance measuring equipment. The transmitter is on the aircraft and sends an SSR signal to a ground unit. It accurately and continuously measures slant range from the aircraft to the tuned ground station

Question 2

ILS deviation formula

You’re 5 DME and the CDI reads 2 dots left

Answer 2

DME x dots x 50 = deviation in ft

5 x 2 x 50 = 500ft left of centreline

Question 3

How many degrees is full CDI deflection on a VOR

Answer 3

10 degrees

Question 4

How many degrees is full CDI deflection on a ILS

Answer 4

2.5 degrees

Question 5

What is a VOR

Answer 5

Uses the phase difference in the variable and reference radio signals. Between 112Mhz and 117.95Mhz. It is used to obtain the aircraft direction from the VOR transmitter

Question 6

How to follow the localizer needle instructions inbound and outbound

Answer 6

Inbound - follow the needle

Outbound - turn away from the needle

Question 7

Glideslope correct altitude based off 3 degrees formula at 3DME and a threshold elevation of 200ft

Answer 7

Distance x 300 + Threshold elevation

3 x 300 + 200 = 1100ft

Question 8

Rate of descent formula

Answer 8

G/S x 5 = ROD

Question 9

Glideslope deviation formula
Full deflection
1/2 deflection

Answer 9

Full deflection
DME x 70ft = ft above or below

1/2 deflection
DME x 35ft = ft above or below

Question 10

One the G1000 what type of navigation uses a magenta CDI

Answer 10

Question 14

What does the HDG key on Flight Director (FD) do

Answer 14

Captures and tracks the selected heading

Question 15

What does the NAV key on the Flight Director (FD) do

Answer 15

Captures and tracks the selected navigation source. (VOR, LOC, FMS)

Question 16

ALT key

Answer 16

Holds current selected altitude

Question 17

VS key vertical speed

Answer 17

Can be used to hold current vertical speed or to select one in 100ft increments

Question 18

FLC key (Flight 
Level change)

Answer 18

Holds the current IAS in a climb or descent to a selected altitude

Question 19

How many vertical feet per mile on a standard 3 degree slope

Answer 19

300ft/nm

Question 20

On the g1000 how do you find the Ann test key

Answer 20

Aux>system status>Ann test

Question 21

Radio call to ch approach after T/O

Answer 21

CH Approach Frasca 44 passing (current altitude) climbing 3000ft (departure name) squeak code

Question 22

Navaid tuning sequence

Answer 22
