A
  • If, at the missed approach point, including the specified DA or DH, the pilot has not established visual reference with the runway or visual landing aids; or
  • An identifiable part of the aerodrome is not distinctly visable to the pilot during a circling manoeuvreat or above MDA; or
  • At anytime during a final approach when directed by ATC.

16
Q
  • If visibility is reported below minima, can you commence the approach?
A
  • It maybe commenced but can not be continued past the FAF if conditions remain unchanged.
17
Q
  • Define Arrival Segment
A
  • The part of an approach where you descend to the IAF
18
Q
  • CAT C Initial Approach Speeds
A
  • 160 - 240kts
19
Q
  • CAT B Circling Speed
A
  • 135kts
20
Q
  • Requirements for a visual approach at Night
A
  • It is essential that the pilot has the runway lights in sight.

Sighting of the Aerodrome beacon, REIL or approach lighting system is insufficient.

21
Q
  • How is an aircrafts category established?
A
  • Based off the aircrafts Threshold crossing speed (Vat)
  • Vat = 1.3 x Vso

Vso = The stall speed in the landing configuration at Max Landing Weight (MLW)

22
Q
  • CAT B Missed Approach Speed
A
  • 150kts
23
Q
  • CAT B Circling Area
A
  • 2.66nm
24
Q
  • Define the Intermediate Approach Segment
A
  • The part of the approach from IF - FAF/FAP
25
Q
  • Max Holding Speed
    • 14,000ft - 20,000ft
    • Turbulence
A
  • 240kts

Turbulence = Lesser of 280kts or M0.8

26
Q
  • When can you descend below MDA or continue an approach below DA or DH?
A
  • The aircraft is in a position that descent using normal rates of descent and using normal manoeuvres will allow touchdown in the touchdown zone, and

  • On a circling approach, remain in the circling area; and

  • The Visibility is not below the Min Visibility for the approach; and

  • Have at least one of the following visual references in sight:
    • The approach lighting system; or
    • The Treshold Markings; or
    • The Threshold Lights; or
    • The REILs (Runway-end identification lights); or
    • The PAPIs; or
    • The TDZ or TDZ markings; or
    • TDZ lights; or
    • The runway or runway markings; or
    • The runway lights.
27
Q
  • CAT C Final Approach Speeds
A
  • 115 - 160kts
28
Q
  • Max Holding Speed
    • CAT B 14,000ft & Below
    • Turbulence
A
  • 170kts (Smooth and Turbulent)
29
Q
  • Outbound Timing in the hold
    • 14,000ft and Below
    • Above 14,000ft
A

14,000ft and Below

  • 1 min

Above 14,000ft

  • 1 min 30sec
30
Q
  • Vat speeds for a category B aircraft
A
  • 91kts - 120kts
31
Q
  • Max Holding Speed
    • CAT C 14,000ft & Below
    • Turbulence
A
  • 230kts

Turbulence: 280kts

32
Q
  • Outbound timing during a procedure turn
A

Cat A & B

  • 1min

Cat C & D

  • 1min 15sec
33
Q
  • Define the IF (Intermediate Approach Fix)
A
  • The point where the Initial approach ends and the point at which you start the intermediate approach.
34
Q

  • Met Minima for ATC to be able to instruct a Piston or Turboprop to enter the visual circuit.
A

Day

  • 1200ft Ceiling; and
  • 5km Vis

(1500ft and 8km vis at NZWN)

Or approach minima for the type of approach and Cat being flown, Whichever is higher.
