Question 1

1. Category II approach is a precision instrument approach and landing with
   decision height lower than 60 meter (200 feet) but not less than:
   a) 15 meters (50 feet)
   b) 30 meters (100 feet)
   c) 20 meters (67 feet)
   d) 45 meters (150 feet)

Answer 1

B

Question 2

2. In Category III operations with DH, the following visual reference are required
   a) Segment of approach light system
   b) Runway threshold
   c) Touch down zone
   d) 3 centre line lights

Answer 2

C

Question 3

3. For CAT II/III Operations Decision Height [DH] is:
   a) The wheel height above the runway elevation by which go-round must be initiated
   unless adequate visual reference has been established. It is recognized by radio
   altimeter.
   b) The wheel height above the runway elevation by which go-round must be initiated
   unless adequate visual reference has been established. It is recognized by servo
   altimeter.
   c) The flight deck height above the runway elevation by which go-round must be initiated
   unless adequate visual reference has been established. It is recognized by radio
   altimeter.
   d) The flight deck height above the runway elevation by which go-round must be initiated
   unless adequate visual reference has been established. It is recognized by servo
   altimeter.

Answer 3

A

Question 4

4. Which statement is false?
   To carryout CAT III approach flight crew must check that:
   a) Both pilots are qualified and current
   b) Intended landing runway is approved for CAT III operations
   c) Airport Low Visibility Procedure reported active.
   d) Approach lights are switched on.

Answer 4

D

Question 5

5. Which statement is false?
   CAT II/III decision height [DH] is the lowest height measured by radio altimeter at
   which go-around must be initiated in case of:
   a) There is no adequate visual reference.
   b) The aircraft is not in a position to perform a safe landing.
   c) PAPI lights are switched off
   d) External references are not sufficient to confirm aircraft position in relation with
   runway axis.

Answer 5

C

Question 6

6. Which statement is false?
The approval for CAT II/III Operations is dependent on the following in order to
maintain the required level of safety:
a) The aircraft and the airfield
b) The aircraft and the airline
c) The airline and the aircrew
d) The airfield and the PAPI system

Answer 6

D

Question 7

7. CAT III A is a precision approach and landing with a decision height and RVR not less
than:
a) 100 ft and 300m
b) 50 ft and 200m
c) 50 ft and 550m
d) 100 ft and 200m

Answer 7

B

Question 8

8. A Fail Operational auto land system is:
   a) In the event of a failure below the alert height, the approach, the flare and landing can be
   completed by the remaining automatic system.
   b) In the event of a failure below the alert height the pilot must perform an automatic go
   around.
   c) In the event of a failure below the alert height the pilot assumes control of the aircraft
   manually.
   d) In the event of a failure above the alert height the pilot must either continue manually or
   perform an automatic go around.

Answer 8

A
