Question 1

Coordinate System

Answer 1

-WGS-84
-World Geodetic System at 1984

Question 2

Reliable Localizer Coverage

Answer 2

-20 degrees 25 / 18
-35 degrees 17 / 10
-ICAO / FAR

Question 3

Localizer Signal

Answer 3

-VHF signals
-Consists two overlapping cone shaped patterns
-Left lobe 90Hz, Right Lobe 150Hz modulation

Question 4

Glidepath Signal

Answer 4

-UHF signals
-Consists two overlapping cone shaped patterns
-Top lobe 90Hz, Bottom lobe 150Hz

Question 5

Low Visiblity Minimas

Answer 5

-CAT I: 200ft / RVR 550m - Visibility 800m
-CAT II: 100ft / RVR 300m
-CAT IIIa: <100ft / 175m
-CATIIIb: <100-50ft / 150-125m with fail passive rollout
-CATIIIb lowest: <50 / 75m with fail operational rollout
-CATIIIc: no DH / no limit with fail operational rollout

Question 6

APV

Answer 6

-Approach with Vertical Guidance
-LNAV/VNAV approaches
-Have DA/DH instead of MDA/MDH

Question 7

LPV

Answer 7

-Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance
-More precise than APV
-They need SBAS

Question 8

Baro-VNAV

Answer 8

-No need for cold weather correction but path changes within limits
-They have min operational temperature
-When used SBAS path does not change

Question 9

RNP LNAV only Approach

Answer 9

-Uses MDA/MDH
-Obstruction different than LNAV/VNAV

Question 10

Side-step Maneuver

Answer 10

-RWYs must be within 1200ft
-May be called “Swing Over”
-Uses MDA/MDH

Question 11

SBAS / GBAS

Answer 11

-Satellite Based Augmentation System / WAAS: Wide Area Augmentation System
-Ground Based Augmentation System / LAAS: Local Area Augmentation System

Question 12

RAIM

Answer 12

-Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring by aircraft equipment
-Requires one additional satellite to be available withing range
