Main gen voltage
26.5-29
main battery voltage
Minimum 22, GPU if less, downed if below 18
Stadby batter voltage
24-26 volts, down for IMC if below 20
Helicopter flight time (helicopters)
Begins: lifts from rest point of commences ground taxi
Ends: when rotors are disengaged OR the aircraft has been stationary for 5 minutes with the rotors engaged
When are position lights displayed
30 minutes before official sunset and 30 minutes after official sunrise
and
when prevailing visibility is less than 3 sm
When can controller issue Missed Approach?
A. Safe limits are exceeded or radical aircraft deviations are observed
B. Position or ID of AC is in doubt
C. Radar contact is lost or malfunctioning radar suspected
D. Field Conditions, conflicting traffic, or other unsafe conditions observed from the tower prevent approach completion
Weather Watch exceptions
operational neccesity
emergencies
all weather research/recon
Weather Watch Exceptions (normal pilots)
A. Storm development not progressed as forecast
-VFR allowed if existing weather for planned route permits
-IFR if aircraft Radar installed and operative to pick up isolated storms
-IFR in controlled airspace if VMC can be maintained
B. aircraft performance allowed for flight above existing or developing storms
How long are DD-175-1s valid
3 hours
Standard Instrument Rating Requirements
-50 hours simulated or actual instrument time
-Successful completion of an NATOPS instrument eval
-within 6 months of instrument eval
-6 hours of actual or simulated instrument time
-twelve approaches (6 NPA, 6PA)
within 12 months
-12 hours instrument time
-18 approaches (6 NPA, 12 PA)
Contact Approach
An approach wherein an aircraft on an IFR flight plan, having an Air Traffic Control authorization, operating clear of clouds with at least 1 mile flight visibility and a reasonable expectation of continuing to the destination airport in those conditions, may deviate from the instrument approach procedure and proceed to the destination airport by visual reference to the surface. This approach will only be authorized when requested by the pilot and the reported ground visibility at the destination airport is at least 1 statue mile.
Two requirements for visual approach
- airport in site
- preceding aircraft in site
visual approach weather requirements
1000-3
Contact approach weather requirements
COC 1sm visibility
