u10 Flashcards
if your radio fails as you approach an MF zone, what do you do
you can NOT enter unless you call a ground station to ask for permission to enter NORDO
are MF ground stations = ATC?
no, they could be FSS or RCO or UNICOM but they will relay atc clearances from the ACC
Dauphin (class E) is managed by Brandon (RCO). if brandon gets too busy to listen to the dauphin people and don’t respond to you, can you still enter dauphin?
no because you must establish communication to enter class E zone
my plane is NORDO but i want to enter a MF area without a ground station. can i enter?
no because to arrive NORDO, i need permission from a ground station. but if there’s no ground station, there’s no one to give me permission
i’m parked and want to leave an airport that’s a MF area. when must i contact the operator to let him know i want to leave the airport? when do i get the traffic advisory and announce my intentions?
