Q

When an ATPL pilot in commercial has his IFR lapsed (not current), can act as:

A
  • PIC in single-crew operations carrying less than 10 passengers in day VFR
  • Co-pilot of an aircraft certified for two-crew operations carrying cargo only during day OR night VFR

PIC, VFR, less than 10 passengers, and
SIC of cargo, day OR night VFR

Essentially can fly a PC-12 day VFR or;

Q

Recency requirements of an ATPL:

A

Holder of a flight crew permit, license or rating must have acted as PIC or SIC in an aircraft:

  • Within the last 5 years or;
  • Have competed a flight review within the preceding 12 months

Also, in order to exercise privileges of a flight crew permit or license a pilot must complete a recurrent training program within the previous 24 months. And if passengers are to be carried, 5 takeoffs and landings within 6 months; same goes for night operations.

AMA mountainous = 1,500ft

for operations on airways or air routes, add 1,000ft to minimum IFR altitudes when there are large pressure/temperature variations

All IFR aircraft should should fly at least 1,000ft above highest obstacle within 5NM

  2. VFR aircraft to set actual altimeter upon final approach
  3. IFR aircraft to set actual altimeter at FAF
  4. All aircraft able to select higher than 31.00 shall use 31.00 enroute, and then actual until final approach/landing
  5. All aircraft unable to set higher than 31.00 will maintain 31.00 with the following restriction:

Rule of thumb for radar separation regarding weight classes:

A

Q

When is a two-minute separation given to an aircraft taking off?

A

Behind any heavy/super heavy regardless of weight class(super heavy down to light) on the same runway, or a parallel runway less than 2,500ft away

ATC will NOT provide any timed separation for a light following a medium in the above scenarios, but in the very least they will advise

Q

When is a three-minute separation given to an aircraft taking off?

A

Behind heavy aircraft (or a light following a medium) if the aircraft concerned takes off from an intersection or a point further down the runway from the preceding (ahead) aircraftOR the controller believes the following aircraft will require more runway length for takeoff than the preceding (ahead) aircraft.

Also provided when a light or medium is following a super heavy.

ATC will also append separation intervals to keep trailing aircraft from crossing a heavies flight path!
