Q

DESCRIBE the relationship between FAR Part 91, CNAF M-3710.7, and the AIM

A
  • CNAFM-3710.7 states that “Naval aircraft shall be operated in accordance with applicable provisions of FAR 91 except where this manual prescribes more stringent requirements
    o Deviations happens in aeras dealing with aircraft speed, minimum fuel, alternate airport weather, special mission, and low-level mission requirements
  • Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) part 91 “general operating and flight rules” – section that most affects naval Aviators
  • Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) – official guide to basic flight information and air traffic control procedures or use in the national airspace system
  • AIM is a non regulatory publication so wording in AIM may be different but the information is consistent with FAR part 91 and is normally easier to read

Q

IDENTIFY the pilot’s responsibilities for acquiring a flight weather brief

A
  • For flights where any portion of the intended route is forecast to be under instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), naval aviators shall obtain a flight route weather brief from a DOD-qualified forecaster or approved forecasting service
