u3 Flashcards
how long is the certificate of airworthiness valid for
valid until you do something that makes your plane unworthy: (MAPS)
- maintenance (lack)
- ADs
- POH (not following)
- snags
what is the annual airworthiness information report (AAIM)
so TC can keep track of planes hours
how long is the certificate of registration valid for
valid until something on CoR changes (owner/purpose/address)
if plane gets destroyed
what does the aircraft’s purpose determine
whether it’s on a private or commercial inspection cycle
private - yearly
commercial - 50,100,50,200
if anything changes on the CoR, how fast must you notify TC
within 7 days
if you fly outside the POH, what expires
certificate of airworthiness
when does the weight and balance expire?
when there’s a change in CoG or weight that the plane must be reweighed (“superseded”)
the old journey log must be kept for ______ (time) after the last entry
1yr
what is public (third party) insurance
plane damages something else
hull insurance is what
for damages to the plane itself
what insurance is required for all planes? what about commercial planes?
all planes need public (third party) insurance
all commercial planes need passenger insurance
the radio operator certificate is given to you by
industry canada
when is a radio station licence required
international flights
DAY VFR equipment requirements
M ag compass
A ltimeter
A irspeed indicator
T imepiece
E ngine instruments (tachometer, oil temp, pressure, fuel gauge, MP gauge)

MATTE +…
pitot heat (icing)
HI
AI
TC
radio
radio navigation equipment
night VFR equipment (private) requirements
MAATE + …
TC
HI
illuminate instruments
electrical energy
spare fuses
position and anti collision lights
landing light (passengers)
Commercial night flights require what equipment
MAATE + basic night VFR +
AI
VSI
OAT gauge
pitot heat
t/f: seat belts are always required no exceptions
false:
can use shoulder harnesses for medical (stretcher), when ur about to parachute, or old aerobatic planes that just weren’t made like that
a child restraint system can be used when:
child accompanied by parent
weight and height followed by
restraint system has label and date of manufacture
supplemental oxygen requirements: below 10 000 ft?
never
supplemental oxygen requirements: 10 000 to 13 000
when at that altitude for longer than 30 mins, need oxygen for crew + 10% of passengers
supplemental oxygen requirements: above 13 000 ft
entire time at that altitude for all people on plane
supplemental oxygen requirements: above FL 250
yes if the plane does not have quick-donning masks
supplemental oxygen requirements: above FL 410
yes even when the plane does have quick-donning masks
all planes require an ELT when operated what distance from base
25 NM from base
can fly for _____ (time) without an ELT if:
elt removed for repair asap
sent to maintenance
placard says no elt with date
cannot takeoff in a turbo-jet plane without a standby attitude indicator unless
plane is under 5 700 kg (12 500 lbs)
old plane
cannot takeoff in a transport category plane without a standby attitude indicator unless
it’s a helicopter in VFR flight
old transport plane
not bound to part VII
cannot takeoff in a turbo-propeller plane without a standby unless
less than 30 passengers
payload capacity is under 3 400 kg (7 500 lbs)
old plane
after dec 10, 2010, cannot takeoff in a turbo-propeller plane with more than _____ passengers unless the plane has a standby attitude indicator
10 passengers
what are the requirements of a standby attitude indicator
- has it’s own electrical source (not from main electrical system so it can work in electrical failure)
- work for at least 30 mins in an electrical failure
- operated independently from primary AI system
- on main instrument panel and illuminated
what type of planes require a FDR and CVR? at what point of flight must each of these be turned on
(flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder)
multi-engine, turbine planes
FDR = takeoff to landing
CVR = engine start to off
t/f: multi-engine turbine planes require an airspeed alerting system unless the MEL says it’s okay
false, they require an ALTITUDE alerting system
t/f: elementary work can be done by the PIC in commercial operations
true, but it’s required that the PIC gets trained by the AME
t/f: elementary work has to be noted in the journey log
false - written in TECHNICAL log
what are the 4 technical logs that a plane must have
airframe
modifications
engine (each installed)
variable pitch propeller (each installed)
the commercial maintenance system needs a maintenance policy manual (MPM) and a maintenance control manual (MCM). what’s the difference
MPM = explains HOW the AME will perform the maintenance
MCM = specifies WHEN and WHERE the maintance will be done
t/f: the pilot is responsible for deferring a defect
false the PRM must make the final call
t/f: the pilot is not liable for maintenance not being done because it’s the PRM’s job to do the work
false the pilot has the responsibility to ensure the maintenance has been completed so if it’s not they can be held liable
simulators must be certified by TC how often? where must the certificates be displayed
annually
prominent location
