Uncontrolled Airspace

Question 1

Inbound calls

Answer 1

50nm out (intentions)
5 mins prior to airspace entry
Commencing instrument approach
When visual
3nm final
Missed approach

Question 2

Outbound calls

Answer 2

Before taxiing (intentions)
Entering the runway
Starting the takeoff roll
Vacating the MBZ/CFZ

Question 3

Speed restrictions

Answer 3

Below 9,500ft AMSL
200kts

At and below 5000ft AMSL
180kts

Question 4

IFR separation (uncontrolled)

Answer 4

At least 1,000ft vertically and 10nm horizontally

Question 5

IFR separation passing (uncontrolled)

Answer 5

If a visual pass cannot be achieved (day only), at least 5nm separation after the pass has occurred when the aircraft are on opposite direction tracks

Question 6

IFR separation both arriving (Uncontrolled)

Answer 6

The following aircraft shall maintain an altitude of not less than 1,000ft above the missed approach altitude, until the preceding aircraft reports visual

Question 7

IFR separation both departing (Uncontrolled)

Answer 7

At least 1 min separation provided the tracks do not cross and are at least 45° apart

At least 10nm separation if the tracks are separated by less than 45° but this may be reduced to a minimum of 1 min separation if at least 1,000ft vertical separation is maintained and the preceding aircraft is climbing to a higher altitude

Question 8

IFR separation right of way (uncontrolled)

Answer 8

An arriving aircraft has right of way over a departing aircraft on the ground. When two aircraft are arriving, the lower aircraft has the right of way

Question 9

Climbing through another aircraft’s level

Answer 9

If overtaking an aircraft and wishing to climb through its level, ensure you have passed by at least 5nm prior to climbing through its level
