SEQUENCE AIRCRAFT

Question 1

(2-1-4)
Operational Priority

What’s operational priority?

Answer 1

First come, first serve

Question 2

(3-10-6)
Anticipating Separation

Landing clearance to succeeding aircraft in a landing sequence need not be with withheld if you observe:

Answer 2

The positions of the aircraft and determine that prescribed runway separation will exist when the aircraft crosses the landing threshold.

Question 3

(4-7-8)
Arrival Procedures {Below Minima Report by Pilot}

If an arriving aircraft reports weather conditions are below his/her landing minima, issue:

Answer 3

Appropriate instructions to the aircraft to hold or proceed to another airport

Question 4

(7-6-(2-3)
Basic Radar Service to VFR aircraft-Terminal {service availability}

Radar sequencing for VFR aircraft to the primary airport, when local procedures have been developed, must be provided unless:

Answer 4

The pilot states that the service is not requested.

Question 5

7-6-(6-8)
Basic Radar Service to VFR Aircraft-Terminal {Approach Sequence}

Do not assign landing sequence numbers, when establishing aircraft in the approach sequence, unless:

Answer 5

It’s been delegated in an lOA or facility directive.

Question 6

(7-6-12)
Basic Radar Service to VFR aircraft-Terminal {Service Provided when Tower is Inoperative}

What do you provide when the tower is not in operation:

Answer 6

> wind direction and velocity
traffic information
inform aircraft when radar service is terminated
do not assign landing sequence

Question 7

(4-7-8)
Arrival Procedures {Below Minima Report by Pilot}

If an arriving aircraft reports weather conditions are below his/her landing minima, adjust as necessary the position in the:

Answer 7

Landing sequence of any other aircraft desiring to make approaches and issue approach clearances accordingly.

Question 7

(7-6-(2-3)
Basic Radar Service to VFR aircraft-Terminal {service availability}

When a local procedures have been developed to give radar sequencing to VFR aircraft to the primary airport, all arriving aircraft are assumed to want radar service unless the pilot states:

Answer 7

“Negative radar service” or makes a similar comment

Question 7

(7-6-(2-3)
Basic Radar Service to VFR aircraft-Terminal {Initial Contact}

An aircraft sighted by the local controller at the time of first radio contact may be position in the:

Answer 7

Landing sequence after coordination with approach control.

Question 7

7-6-(6-8)
Basic Radar Service to VFR Aircraft-Terminal {Sequencing}

What do you have to establish before instructing a VFR aircraft to enter the traffic pattern at a specified point or vectoring the aircraft to a position in the approach sequence?

Answer 7

Radar contact

Question 8

7-6-(6-8)
Basic Radar Service to VFR Aircraft-Terminal {Approach Sequence}

When the integrity of the approach sequence is dependent on following a preceding aircraft, what do you do?

Answer 8

> inform the pilot of the aircraft to follow
ensure visual contact is established with the aircraft to follow
provide instructions to follow that aircraft

Question 9

7-6-(6-8)
Basic Radar Service to VFR Aircraft-Terminal {Approach Sequence}

When a position is not available in the approach sequence for the runway in use, what do you need to do with the VFR aircraft?

Answer 9

Direct them to a point near the airport to hold.

They may be vectored to another runway after coordination with the tower.

Question 10

7-6-(6-8)
Basic Radar Service to VFR Aircraft-Terminal {Approach Sequence}

what procedures do you apply to a VFR aircraft being radar sequenced?

Answer 10

(Parallel rwys less than 2,500’ apart)
>do not permit a super or a heavy aircraft to overtake any aircraft
>do not permit a B757 or other large aircraft to overtake a small aircraft est. on final within the facility’s area of responsibility.
