Answer 1

Aircraft in controlled airspace must have at least 3 miles visibility and maintain 500feet distance from the ground as well as from cloud overhead

Question 2

Minima for VFR AC in an uncontrolled airspace during the day above 1000 feet AGL

Answer 2

1 mile visibility with 2000 feet between the AC and cloud horizontally, 500 feet below cloud

Question 3

Minima for VFR AC in an uncontrolled airspace during the day below 1000 feet AGL

Answer 3

Flight visibility of two miles and clear of cloud

Question 4

Minima for a VFR AC in an uncontrolled airspace above 1000 feet AGL at night

Answer 4

Flight visibility of 3 miles, 2000 feet from cloud horizontally and 500 vertically.

Question 5

Minima for a VFR AC in uncontrolled airspace below 1000 feet AGL at night

Answer 5

Visibility 3 miles and clear of cloud.

Question 6

VFR over the top conditions

Answer 6

There must be 5000feet between cloud layers and 1000feet between the AC and cloud with both flight visibility and cruising altitude being 5 miles

Question 7

Special VFR conditions

Answer 7

Flight visibility must be at least one mile (one half mile for helicopter) and the AC must have visual reference to the ground at all times

Question 8

What are the differences between an airport and an aerodrome?

Answer 8

All airports are aerodromes but not all aerodromes are airports. An airport is an aerodrome that is licensed and will be listed in the CFS.

Question 9

Answer 9

The AC with the other on its right gives way

Answer 11

500 feet vertically and 500 feet horizontally

Question 12

What is the minimum distance for an AC other than an airplane or balloon from a built up area?

Answer 12

1000 feet vertically and 500 feet horizontally

Question 13

What are the four types of activities that are considered special circumstances and have different rules that apply to them?

Answer 13

Towing -formation flights -aerobatic manoeuvres -parachuting

Question 14

When is it allowable for an AC to fly without a flight plan or flight itinerary?

Answer 14

When it is a VFR flight and the AC is not flying further than 25 NM from their departure aerodrome.

Question 15

Composite flight plan

Answer 15

A flight plan which is VFR for part of the flight and IFR for part.

Question 16

What are the changes that require making a change in the flight plan?

Answer 16

Altitude change -route change -true airspeed change -change in destination aerodrome -change in Mach number greater than .01

Question 17

How long after failing to file an arrival report are SAR actions initiated for both a flight plan and a flight itinerary?

Answer 17

Flight plan- one hour

Flight itinerary- 24 hours

Question 18

When is it acceptable for a IFR flight to file a flight itinerary?

Answer 18

When the flight is conducted in part or whole outside controlled airspace
