Nav questions Flashcards
Different parts of traffic circuit:
Upwind, crosswind, downwind, base, final
DME provides in the UHF band
True
Radio navigation in VHF band
VOR, ILS, localizer
STCA is an airborne safety net
FALSE, it’s a ground based
What is TCAS?
Traffic collision avoidance system, gets resolution advisory
True airspeed is shown by differential indicated air speed indicator
False
True airspeed is shown by differential indicated air speed indicator
False
Unsynchronized replies
Fruit
Which of the following could be consequences of lack of teamwork
Idk don’t remember
definition of fog/mist
Fog: visibility is below 1000m
Mist: visibility is 1000-5000
what goes through all the meridians with the same angle
Rhumb line
define approaches
- Define approaches
Non-Precision – NDB, VOR, VOR DME, localizer, RNP (required navigation performance)
Precision – ILS, GLS (global navigation system), PAR (precision approach radar)
What is an instrument approach with lateral guidance only
Definition of a non-precision approach
- Differences on DH8C and DH8A
C is bigger
Learjet 60 and Cessna 550, wake turbulence separation?
5 NM
what does a anemometer measure?
wind speed
what is the purpose of a racetrack?
Course reversal procedure for instrument approach procedures
What kind of time do we use?
UTC – universal time coordinated
definition of slant range
distance between two objects on two different altitudes
Describe final approach
Last segment before the final
final approach point - precision
Final approach fix - non-precision
ILS CAT 1 approach shall provide vertical guidance down to at least __ above threshold
200
what is an agonic line?
isogonic line with 0 variation
what is a drift angle?
Angle between heading and track before wind correction angle
drift angle is caused by:
crosswind
Lowest assigned frequency for VHF ground to air communication is:
118.000
lowest visibility for special VFR in a control zone with a helicopter is:
800m
“Turn left heading 080” is pronounced
zero eight zero
