2) ensure clearances are followed
3) ensure the clearances do not present a hazard to the aircraft.
calculate ETAs when (3)
1) cleared on course
2) abeam navaid/aerodrome
3) above 100nm safe altitude or when safely able if not flying above the 100nm safe altitude
following departure, lead will pass the following to the pilot (2)
1) ramp time (take off + 3.0 hrs prior to TB3)
2) 1st turning point, first ETP and ramp time (plus 10 minutes rounded up to the nearest interval) (TB3+)
when can you start EOC check (2)
1) +/- 30 degrees from the on course
2) above the safety altitude
The EOC consists of confirming the accuracy of the navigation computers (9)
1) DID hold computers
2) log and plot (with time) computer positions and log # of GPS satellites tracking and visible
3) if 3 or more satellites are tracked, GPS shall be the primary navigation computer: If the INS is within 5nm of the GPS, no update of the INS is required and vice versa
4) if 2 or less satellites are being tracked, the INS shll be the primary navigation computer
5) log primary computer G/S and DA
6) log and plot computer winds and compare to FP. if significantly different from forecast winds, adjust plan as required
7) log doppler drift and G/S, and compare to computer information
OPEN watch sequence (4)
1) voice radio check will be done
2) a SELCAL check will be done when MACS is used
3) a secondary frequency will be obtained
4) the student will sign the log, and if not using SELCAL, aurally monitor the primary frquency
when can you conduct a fuel analysis
after level off check
en route hourly requirements (3)
1) systems check
2) fuel analysis
3) position report
when do you send a position report?
one hour after the QSL of the OUT/DEPARTURE message and hourly after. The time of the aircraft position in the pos report must be no earlier than 10 min prior to the DTG
en route requirements (4)
1) student must be able to pinpoint their position at all times
2) student shall optimize navaids for situational awareness and track monitoring
3) complete any specialty messages as directed by the instructor
4) students required to communicate with an appropriate agency (ex. FISE)
HF communications late time
maximum time late for trnsmitting a particular DTG is 15 minutes, when a message is transmitted more than 15 min after the DTG, a new DTG must be assigned to the message
Hack/turning point procedures (8)
1) description of TP to include ETA
2) outbound heading
3) distance to next point
4) time at next point
5) minimum IFR alitutde

when are you cleared to commence the 5T check
after the hack/turning points the pilot will call “wings level”
5T check includes (5)
1) TIME verbalize time on top and note the difference from the flight planned time
2) TURN ensure the pilot turned to the briefed heading, then correct if the actual drift differs from the anticipated drift
LLRN: correct for drift using doppler info
LLIN: verify waypoint has captured and ensure
computers are navigating to desired
waypoint. Using TKE/XTK, give an initial
correction to stay/regain track
3) TRACK carry out a track angle angle departure check. This is a gross error check that uses the mp to confirm that the “picture” is correct
4) THROTTLE brief the pilot on the desired groundspeed
5) TALK make a blind broadcast as required on 126.7

-flown below 12 500’ ASL
-time on target is +/- 18 seconds (TB3-FB4)
-target overflown no more than 0.5nm
-track tolerance of within 2nm of track
techniques for speed corrections (3)
1) add/subtract 10% of current G/S to/from the planned G/S for 10 times the error in seconds
2) using the jepp and spinning an accurate G/S required to next turn
3) other formula for speed correction may be permitted if they are logical systematic and deemed acceptable by the instructor
what is the lost procedure (4)
1) maintain a steady heading
2) review previous navigation
3) mark estimated position on map
4) turn on ETA for turning point (TP)
rule of thumb for leading a 90degree turn
lead by 1% of the G/S (ex. at 200 kts G/S, a 90 degree turn should be initiated 2 NM back) Note: 0.1 of a nm = 2 secs at 180 kts G/S
ICS procedures for low level missions (4)
1) call when the TP has been identified
2) lead calls 6-3-2-1nm back for run-ins with TP, IP, TGT
