What is the descent rates for precision and non precision approaches?
Precision: 400-600 fpm
Non-Precision: 800-1000 fpm
Where is the OM, MM, and IM located?
OM at FAF
MM at DA
IM at ILS CAT 2 DA
What is the glideslope formula for 3º glideslope?
Groundspeed / 2 x 100
120 KIAS = 600fpm
For an ILS, when can you NOT descent below localizer minimums when the glideslope is functioning?
One dot below glideslope
Two dots above glideslope
For an ILS, when can you transition to a localizer only approach?
In the event of glideslope failure and still above MDA
When should the timer be started on an ILS/LOC approach?
Final Approach Fix
Complete the 6 T's Time Turn Torque Twist Track Talk
How do you use fly an approach that uses a localizer with DME from a different VOR?
Tune the VOR
Push DMEH
Tune the ILS
Range will appear on the EHSI upper left corner
While on the ILS, pitch changes should be __º or less, headings __º or less
Pitch 2º or less
Heading 5º or less
GPS Approach mode will NOT arm unless approach loaded when?
Prior to 2NM area outside FAF
Approach ARM mode will change the CDI sensitivity from ___ to ___ nm
5nm to 1nm
Activates approach arm 30 nm from the air field
Approach mode will activate 2 nm from FAF and change CDI sensitivity from what to what?
+/-1 nm to +/-0.3 nm sensitivity
APR ACT will appear in bottom right of EHSI
What must the CDI be set to if tracking a Localizer Backcourse?
Must set designated FRONT COURSE in EHSI
When will controllers give traffic advisories when IFR?
When workload permits
When the weather is greater than _____ feet above the MVA and the visibility is greater than ___ miles, the controller may vector the aircraft to intercept final to what?
500 feet above MVA, vis greater than 3 nm
Controller will give At least 1 mile from the FAF at a maximum intercept angle of 20º
or
Controller will give At least 3 miles from the FAF at a maximum intercept angle of 30º
In radar environment contact controlling agency if no transmissions received for approximately:
___ minute while being vectored
___ seconds on ASR final
___ seconds on PAR final
1 minute vectored
15 seconds ASR
5 seconds PAR
How do you know when you are at the Missed Approach Point on an ASR?
The controller will tell you
On a No-Gyro approach, when do you transition to half-standard rate turns?
When advised by the controller
Where can you find details of lighting systems?
Flight Information Handbook
What are REILs?
While flashing lights at the approach end of the runway
What is a PAPI
Precision Approach Path Indicator
4 lights
2 white 2 red on glidepath
When do you begin taking quick glances outside on a approach?
Upon reaching the cloud bases
What are the circling approach categories for A, B, C, D, E?
A: 1.3 B: 1.5 C: 1.7 D: 2.3 E: 4.5
If a circling approach is used, which runway should be used for the approach minimums?
The initial runway used for the approach, NOT the runway to be landed on
How much obstacle clearance is ensured when circling?
300 feet
When would you get climbout instructions on an approach?
Used when executing multiple approaches***
When do you make a turn when executing climbout instructions?
Past the departure end of the runway AND above 400 feet AGL
Missed approach procedures for multiple approaches should use ____ KIAS climbout.
160 KIAS
