Part 91 and Part 71 Flashcards
When using VOT to make a VOR receiver check, the CDI should be centered and the OBS should indicate that the aircraft is on the
360° FROM or 180° TO.
What is VOT?
VOR Test Facility
The RVR minimums for takeoff or landing are published in an IAP, but RVR is inoperative and cannot be reported for the runway at the time. Which of the following would apply?
RVR minimums which are specified in the procedure should be converted and applied as ground visibility.
What minimum navigation equipment is required for IFR flight?
Among other equipment, a two-way radio communications system and navigational equipment appropriate to the ground facilities to be used are required for IFR flight.
What are the two limiting cruising altitudes usable on V343 for a VFR-on-Top flight from DBS VORTAC to RANEY intersection?
The MEA is 15,000’. While on a magnetic course of 0° - 179°, the pilot must choose odd thousands + 500 for VFR-on-top. Therefore, 15,500’ is the lowest altitude he may choose. Class A begins at 18,000’ and prohibits VFR-on-top.
For aircraft other than helicopters, what minimum weather conditions must be forecast for your ETA at an alternate airport that has a precision approach procedure, with standard alternate minimums, in order to list it as an alternate for the IFR flight?
600 foot ceiling and 2 SM visibility at your ETA.
The aircraft’s transponder fails during flight within Class D airspace.
ATC may allow an aircraft with an inoperative transponder to fly to the airport of ultimate destination. However, there is no requirement to have an operable transponder in Class D airspace.
When making an airborne VOR check, what is the maximum allowable tolerance between the two indicators of a dual VOR system (units independent of each other except the antenna)?
For a dual VOR check, the acceptable tolerance for the bearing to the station between the two VORs is +/ - 4°.
In Class A, VFR or IFR?
In Class A airspace, unless otherwise authorized, all persons must operate their aircraft under IFR.
What is the oxygen requirement for an unpressurized aircraft at 15,000 feet?
At cabin pressure altitudes above 14,000’ MSL, all required minimum flight crew must use supplemental oxygen during the entire flight time. Above 15,000’ MSL, each occupant of the aircraft must be provided with supplemental oxygen.
When on a VFR on Top clearance, the cruising altitude is based on
When operating an aircraft under VFR in level cruising flight more than 3,000’ above the surface, the pilot shall maintain the appropriate altitude or flight level for the magnetic course.
To operate an aircraft under IFR, a flight plan must have been filed and an ATC clearance received prior to
No person may operate an aircraft in controlled airspace under IFR unless that person has filed an IFR flight plan and received an appropriate ATC clearance.
In Class E airspace, at or above 10,000’, the VFR flight visibility is
5 statute miles with a cloud clearance of 1,000’ below, 1,000’ above, and 1 statute mile horizontal.
First airport has no IAP. What is the fuel requirement
An IFR alternate is always required if the 1st airport has no instrument approach.
fuel to the alternate airport, and then for 45 minutes at normal cruising speed.
When may ATC request a detailed report of an emergency even though a rule has not been violated?
When priority has been given.
