The altitude restriction in your IFR clearance is to “Cruise 7,000 feet”. There is a 5000 ft MEA on your filed airway. What altitude may you use?
Any intermediate altitude within this block of airspace.
When is radar service terminated during a visual approach?
Automatically when ATC instructs the pilot to contact the tower.
When operating under IFR, you must track the centerline of an ATC assigned airway except…
for shallow clearing turns while climbing in VMC.
Which of the following requires DME or suitable RNAV system for a flight conducted under IFR.
Operation at or above FL240 if VOR navigation is required.
Flight at the MOCA assures…
acceptable navigational signal coverage within 25 SM on off-airway routes
When not in radar contact, you should always report…
