instruments 2 Flashcards
inbound leg of holding procedure can also be called
holding course
types of holding patterns
published en route holding
arrival- thin solid line
hold in lieu of PT- thick solid line
missed approach- dashed lines
maximum airspeed in holding pattern unless depicted otherwise
90kts
3 types of holding pattern entries
direct, parallel, teardrop
timing on outbound leg begins when:
the aircraft is abeam the fix or after run is completes
negative symbology T indicates
non standard takeoff minima
only minimums that army aviators are not required to follow
IFR alternate minimums ceiling and visibility
IFR takeoff minimums
P* over 50 hours IFR time: none
under 50 hours: 100ft - 1/4 SM
diverse departure
35 ft above runway
400 ft AGL before turn
200 FPNM climb
4 things every instrument approach must include
lateral guidance
vertical guidance
range information
visual information
segments of approach
initial
intermediate
final
missed
2 types of course reversal
procedure turn
hold short in lieu of procedure turn
3 things that can indicate the final approach fix
glide sloep intercept
maltese cross
final approach point
before beginning descent from the final approach fix to DA or MDA you must be
cleared for the approach
established on the final approach course
positioned at the FAF
missed approach point can be indicated by:
DA
time or distance from navaid
navaid station passage
a flyover waypoint
Precision vs non precision approach
NP- uses MDA, can be ground or space based source
P- uses DA/DH, uses glide slope
VDP
visual descent point: can be used during non precision straight in approach
types of precision approach
instrument landing system, (ILS)
precision approach radar (PAR)
RNAV (GPS) approach landing system utilizing ground based augmentation systems (GBAS)
ASR non- precision approach gives (2)
azimuth and range
start point for holding pattern
holding fix
when do you NOT need to contact ATC while entering or exiting a holding pattern
military pilot at a military airport while conducting instrument training
NDB is what type of approach
non precision
primary reason for DEPARTURE PROCEDURES
obstacle avoidance
SID primary purpose
increases efficiency and reduces unnecessary communications
how are SIDs published
graphically
how are ODP published
textual/graphic (will say obstacle at the top of the page)
purpose of radar vectors
increase efficiency, can help is the airport does not have SIDs
the end of a procedure turn indicates the beginning of which segment of an approach
intermediate
star by the tower name means
part time tower operation
V vs U radio freq
V- begins with 1
U- begins with 2/3
Visual descent points a used during which approaches?
straight in precision point only; not missed approaches
feeder route
line with arrow pointing from VOR to approach and contains altitude, course and distance
glide slope intercept depiction on approach plate
lightening bolt with arrow
breakdown of sections of approach plate
Top margin identification, pilots briefing section, plan view, profile view, landing minimums, airport sketch, bottom margin identification
definitions, pilot procedures, info about all other flips are in
GP
info on other countries airspace, noise, wildlife reserves clearance is in
AP1
airport info can be found in
IFR supplement
EP info, conversion tables, weather info, pilot procedures
FIH
approaches, hot spots
TLA/TPP
attitude instrument flying basis
proper instrument interpretation
2 elements of control
attitude and power
3 categories of instruments on control panel
control, performance, navigation
