International OPS Europ Flashcards
Fie the flight plan min & max time?
3 hour min
120 max
When is the CFMU issuing a CTOT?
2 hours prior to EOBT
CTOT window ?
5 min prior
10 min after
What is a limitation on certain altimeters when related to high alt AP?
If the elevation is over 200ft some altimeters cannot be calibrated on QHE for a landing / it has to be performed a QNH landing
PANS-OPS Holding Proc
1 All procedures are based on still air - the crew is responsible for any wind compensation
2 All turn are 25 dg bank angle
or 3 dr / sec
Parallel entry
1 AC is coming from the opposite 110 dg sector on the safe side
2 AC turned left onto an parallel outbound track
2 AC turned left on the safe side / holding site, to intercept inbound track or returns to the fix
3 @ or bellow 14000 = 1 min, above 1 min 30 sec
Offset entry
1 Ac from the 70dg sector opposite the fix and opposite the holding side
2 30 dg angle after the fix with the inbound track then right turn to pick up the inbound course to the fix
Direct entry
1 AC from 70 dg on the holding side to 110 dg on the opposite side
2 AC to proceed to fix and from there right turn outbound
Base turn
Outbound track with timing or determined DME distance
Procedure turn
45/180
Reciprocal inbound track determined by time or DMEthen 45 dg to the left /right , time or DME and final turn on the opposite side right / left to intercept the inbound course
Procedure turn
80/260 dg
Reciprocal inbound track determined by time or DME then 80 dg left / right and immediately after right / left 260 dg to intercept inbound course
Racetrack maneuver
1 - 30 dg left +30 dg right of the opposite inbound course = gets on a direct entry into the arrival
2 - anything else must enter the holding pattern
Is P - RNAV approval required?
YES
Can a non approved AC depart?
YES
Phraseology : fly to waypoint BEKAS in Russia - means to proceed ….
Via Flight Plan Route to that waypoint
If a country is only partially compliment with WGS-84 ?
What does that mean
Assume it is not
Are there any limitation due to non - WGS-84 countries?
YES - GPS may not be as accurate because those countries are not using the same mathematical formula to calculate position
How is the primary method of altimetry revealed on the approach chart?
It is BOLDED
Should one had to make a correction : would it have to be for the QNH or QFE?
BOTH
If the outbound leg is 030 dg, what would be the tolerance to intercept this leg?
000 - 075 dg
Can one operate in and out of European airports without P-RNAV approval?
YES but some restrictions may apply
In Europe FL 100 is called
Flight level one hundred
Can one use GPS in countries non compliant WGS84?
YES but with caution
What are the entries arguments when using the cold temperature chart?
TEMP and HIGHT above field elevation
What is the primary altimeter setting in most countries?
QNH in hectopascals
