Question 4

Altitude that DME is required

Answer 4

at or above FL24

Question 5

When IFR is required?

Answer 5

Class E when IMC exists or in Class A airspace

Question 6

Holding pattern timing
14,000’ MSL – 1 minute
Above 14,000’ MSL – 1.5 minutes

Answer 6

1 minute

1.5 minutes

Question 7

Up to 6000’ MSL – 200 KIAS

Question 8

Lost communications procedure

Altitude to fly

Answer 8

M – Minimum altitude prescribed for IFR
E – Expected (e.g. “expect 5000ft after 10 minutes”)
A – last altitude Assigned by ATC

Question 9

A.V.E.F – select route by the following order:

Answer 9

A –Assigned route, if none:
V –Vectored (fly to the fix/route/airway last vectored to), if none:
E –last Expected route by ATC, if none:
F – Filed route

Question 10

Is the clearance limit a fix from which an approach begins?

Answer 10

Yes: Start descent and approach as close as possible to the EFC, or ETA (if no EFC given)

NO:At EFC or clearance limit (if no EFC given), proceed to a fix from which an approach begins and start the approach

Question 11

What is the formula When a VDP is not published you can use this formula to calculate it:

Answer 11

VDP (in NM from threshold) = HAT/300, or

10% of HAT = seconds to subtract from time to MAP

Question 12

two approach clearances

Answer 12

Contact approach

Visual approach

Question 13

What is Contact approach?

Answer 13

Must be specifically requested by the pilot.(It cannot be initiated by ATC)
Requires at least 1SM reported ground visibility and the aircraft to remain clear of clouds.
Available only at airports with approved instrument approach procedures.

Question 14

What is visual approach?

Answer 14

Initiated by either ATC or the pilot.
Requires at least 1000’ ceiling and 3SM visibility. (IFR under VMC)
Pilot must have either the airport or the traffic to follow in sight.

Question 15

When can you descend to next instrument approach

segment?

Answer 15

When cleared for the approach and established on a segment of a published approach or route.

Question 16

Airborne VOR Check, OBS and OBS indicator should read

Answer 16

within 6 of the selected radial

Question 17

VFR requirement Class G airspace when below 10,000 feet MSL and above 1,200 feet AGL

Answer 17

1 statute miles, and can stay 500 feet below, 1,000 feet above and 2,000 feet horizontally from clouds.

Question 18

night time basic VFR weather minimums for Class G, E airspace below 10,000 feet MSL

Answer 18

3 miles; 1,000 feet above; 2,000 feet horizontal; 500 feet below.

Question 19

alternate minimums for an airport with a precision approach procedure

Answer 19

600 foot ceiling and 2 miles visibility.

Question 20

alternate minimums for an airport with nonprecision approach

Answer 20

800 foot ceiling and 2 miles visibility.

Question 21

publication can the VOR receiver ground checkpoint(s) found?

Answer 21

Airport/Facility Director

Question 22

ELT
Altimeter
Transponder check requirements for IFR

Answer 22

ELT: not required for IFR but needs to be check every 12months. Rest is 24 months

Question 23

What reports are required of a flight operating on an IFR clearance specifying VFR on Top in a nonradar environment?

Answer 23

The same reports that are required for any IFR flight.

Question 24

flying on an IFR flight plan

two-way communications radio failure in VFR conditions. Next step

Answer 24

continue VFR and land as soon as practicable.

Question 25

what is the landing minimums at the selected alternate airport

Answer 25

The landing minimums published for the type of procedure selected.

Question 26

What action should you take if your DME fails at FL 240?

Answer 26

Notify ATC of the failure and continue to the next airport of intended landing where repairs can be made.

Question 27

FOr IFR, pilot needs to know about runways length

Answer 27

be familiar with the runway lengths at airports of intended use, and the alternatives available if the flight cannot be completed.

Question 28

f the RVR is not reported, what meteorological value should you substitute for 2,400 RVR?

Answer 28

A ground visibility of 1/2 SM.

Question 29

IFR, an aircraft must be equipped with transponder or clock.

Answer 29

a clock with sweep second pointer or digital presentation.

Question 30

airborne VOR check
allowable tolerance between two indicators of a dual VOR system
Units are independent

Answer 30

4° between the two indicated radials of a VOR.

Question 31

airborne, what is the maximum permissible variation between the two indicated bearings when checking one VOR system against the other?

Answer 31

4° between the two indicated bearings to a VOR.

Not radial!!!!
