Q

Pito/static system blockages

A

Static blockage:
Airspeed indicator: indicates correctly only at the blockage altitude
Higher altitudes → airspeed indicates lower than it should
Lower altitudes → Indicates higher than it should
Altimeter: will freeze on the altitude where it was blocked
VSI: freezes on zero

When using the alternate static source a lower static pressure is measured:
Airspeed indicator: indicate a faster speed than it should
Altimeter: indicate higher than it should.
VSI: momentarily show a climb

Pito blockage:
The only instrument affected is the airspeed indicator
Ram air inlet clogged and drain hole open? Airspeed drops to zero
Both air inlet and drain hole are clogged? The airspeed indicator will act as an altimeter, and will no longer be reliable

Q

Teach how to perform a DME arc

A

Enter 90 degrees abeam the radial (at provo 285, plus 90, 15 degrees)
Plus 10 (25) , turn 10 twists 10 and intercept the radials until LR is indicated (302 at provo) and switch to the ILS frequency

Q

How does a VOR work

A

The VOR sends out 2 signals, the omnidirectional pulse, and the rotating reference signal
The pulse signal is sent out in all directions at once every time the reference signal completes a rotation and hits the 360 radial
This allows the VOR receiver within the aircraft to determine it’s position relative to the VOR because the longer the time difference between the pulse signal and the reference signal, the more out of phase these to signals will be (there is less of a time difference between these two signals off of the 030 radial vs the 340 radial)
Essentially by measuring how in/out of phase the two signals are with each other, the VOR receiver is able to determine how much time has passed between picking up the omnidirectional pulse, and picking up the rotating reference signal and calculate it’s position in relation to the VOR

Q

FAR 91.175

A

Takeoff and landing under IFR

Takeoff:
N/A for part 91 but!
1 engine: 1sm visibility
2 or more engines: 1/5sm visibility

Normal descent with normal maneuvers, wx meets minimums, one visual reference point in sight

Landing/Operations below minimums:
Wx meets the approach requirements
The ALS is in sight (white terminating bars in sight may descend to 100’ AGL, if red terminating bars are in sight you may descend to the ground)
Threshold (markings/lights/in general)
Touchdown zone (markings/lights/in general)
Lights (glideslope indicator, REILs)
The runway environment (lights/markings/in general)

Q

What is and ODP

A

Obstacle departure procedure

17
Q

What is a STAR

A

Standard arrival procedure

18
Q

Descend via vs cleared

A

Descend via: comply with the lateral path of the STAR, comply with all published speed restrictions, comply with all published altitude restrictions
Cleared: you are cleared to perform the procedure

19
Q

If you can’t get ATC’s attention on an approach what should you do?

A

You could IDENT, try calling the tower again, squawk 7600

20
Q

When can you cancel IFR?

A

Say you break out of the clouds at 1000’ you can cancel at 900’ and land visually

21
Q

How far off course can you be on a DME arc

A

1nm

22
Q

1 nautical mile is equal to

A

1 degree of latitude

23
Q
A

Unusable airway/route segment

24
Q

Mandatory reporting points

A

MARVELOUS VFR C500

AIM 3-2-1

25
Q

Illusions

A

ICEFLAGS

26
Q

Inop equipment

A

FAR 91.213

27
Q

Define ceiling

A

The base of the lowest unbroken layer of clouds below 20000’ covering more than half of the sky

28
Q

Define RNAV

A

Area navigation (RNAV) is a method of navigation that permits aircraft operation on any desired flight path within the coverage of ground- or space-based navigation aids, or within the limits of the capability of self-contained aids, or a combination of these

29
Q

Define RNP

A

Required Navigation Performance ( RNP ) is similar to Area Navigation ( RNAV ); but, RNP requires on-board navigation performance monitoring and alerting capability to ensure that the aircraft stays within a specific containment area

30
Q

You’re entering a hold and do a tear drop entry, when are you established in the hold

A

Inbound crossing the fix

31
Q

You have a 100kt tailwind, how do you know you’ve crossed the fix to start your timer in a hold

A

Your indicator will turn ‘to’ to ‘from’

32
Q

On the ILS 28 at KAOH, where is the FAF

A

WEVIG, 2200’, inbound

33
Q

If you loose sight of the runway while circling what should you do

A

Turn towards the runway, fly the published missed

34
Q

Why would you ever do a circling approach

A

Winds favoring a runway that doesn’t have an approach

35
Q

If you’ve lost comms while being vectored, what should you do

A

Ident, try to contact the tower or approach, 7600, 7700, try 121.5, squawk VFR if in VFR conditions, fiddle w my volume or headset (verify)
