GOM 6.1.11

14.1.4 Perform International Airspace Procedures

A

The only way to determine the appropriate holding speeds for a particular country is to first check the ATC sections of the Jeppesen Text documents found in FD Pro and find the “Holding” section for a particular country. The Holding section will reference a table of speeds, found in the 200 series pages of the Air Traffic Control section of the Jeppesen General Manual.

50
Q

When operating outside the U.S., and cleared to a point with no routing specified, what action must be taken by the flight crew?

GOM 6.1.6.3

14.1.4 Perform International Airspace Procedures

A

Clarify the routing or, if cleared direct, use specific phraseology indicating “cleared present position direct to ”.

51
Q

When verifying routing on a flight plan consisting of Class II segments, what specific check is required in addition to the checks performed on all international flights?

GOM 6.2.1

14.1.4 Perform International Airspace Procedures

A

For all Class II segments of flight, verify that the NAVBLUE Flight Release coordinates agree with the actual coordinates from Jeppesen HI/LO charts or the NAT Track message, as appropriate.
Note:
1. The requirement for Class II segments assume that during flight along airways, the airways are monitored for accuracy during self contained long range navigation operations. Anytime this is NOT possible, the coordinates should be checked, i.e., when cleared direct without positive course guidance, the flight crew should check the waypoint coordinates with the printed chart coordinates.
2. Check NAVBLUE Flight Release times, distances, and fuel loading for reasonableness, i.e., divide the fuel burn by the flight time and verify the average fuel burn per hour is reasonable; and
3. Compare NAVBLUE Flight Release winds with upper-level winds aloft on meteorological charts.

52

55
Q

Can a flight be released based on a METAR?

GOM 5.2.6.5

14.1.5 Analyze and Assess International Weather

A

Yes, when weather conditions forecast in a TAF prevent the release of a flight, but the METAR indicates current weather conditions are at or above minimums, a flight may be released provided the METAR history shows a reasonable trend of weather conditions at or above the minimums required. The flight must be coordinated with flight following to ensure the takeoff, approach, and landing can be accomplished prior to issuance of the next normally scheduled METAR report.

56
Q

You are unable to see the required visual cues at decision height on an approach. Are you obligated to proceed to your filed alternate?

GOM 6

14.1.6 Perform International Diversions Operations

A

No. As with any listed alternate, the destination alternate is just a planning exercise to ensure that you have available fuel to divert to a suitable airport.

57
Q

GOM 8.12.2

14.1.6 Perform International Diversions Operations

A
  1. If possible, deviate away from an organized track or route system.
  2. Establish communications with and alert nearby aircraft by broadcasting, at suitable intervals:
    aircraft identification, flight level, position (including ATS route designator or the track code) and
    intentions, on the frequency in use and on 121.5 MHz (or, as a backup, on the inter-pilot air-to-air frequency 123.45 MHz).
  3. Watch for conflicting traffic both visually and by reference to ACAS (if equipped).
  4. Turn on all aircraft exterior lights (commensurate with appropriate operating limitations).
  5. For deviations of less than 5.0 nautical miles from the originally cleared track or route remain at a
    level assigned by ATC.
  6. For deviations greater than or equal to 5.0 nautical miles from the originally cleared track or route, when the aircraft is approximately 5.0 nautical miles from track, initiate a level change:
    S= +300’
    N= -300’
  7. If deviation beyond ATC clearance, comply with above.
  8. When returning to track or route, be at its assigned flight level when the aircraft is within approximately 5.0 nautical miles of the center line.
  9. If contact was not established prior to deviating, continue to attempt to contact ATC to obtain a clearance. If contact was established, continue to keep ATC advised of intentions and obtain essential traffic information.
58
Q

You are unable to maintain your altitude while in oceanic airspace and cannot obtain a clearance for a lower altitude. What do you do?

14.1.6 Perform International Diversions Operations

A

Divert to your released airport (intermediate airport), after coordinating with ATC.

60
Q

In the event a missed approach is initiated prior to arriving at the missed approach point, what is expected of the pilot in regards to vertical and lateral maneuvering?

GOM 6.6.3

14.1.6 Perform International Diversions Operations

A

It is expected that the pilot will normally proceed to the missed approach point and then follow the missed approach procedure in order to remain within the protected airspace. This does not preclude flying over the MAP at an altitude/height greater than that required by the procedure.

GOM 6.5.5

14.1.7 Perform International Navigation Procedures

A

The flight crew shall write down the clearance on the Flight Plan, along with the time it was received and the controlling frequency. When a reroute is necessary, the flight crew shall clearly cross-out old waypoints and enter the new waypoints in their place.

63
Q

Certain locations in the world have been identified by IATA as having less than reliable air traffic control services. Is there any additional procedure required?

GOM 6.1.7

14.1.7 Perform International Navigation Procedures

A

IATA In-Flight Broadcast Procedure (IFBP)

IATA has determined that the air traffic control service and infrastructure throughout most of the African continent is sub-par with the rest of the world. The threat of collision in this area is potentially greater than anywhere else due to these deficiencies. The IFBP is a standardized program to mitigate some of the risk when operating in this area that is not dependent on ground-based facilities. It is a formalized means for crews of airborne aircraft to increase situational awareness of other traffic and maintain separation.
The IFBP is based on all flights monitoring and broadcasting position, altitude and direction/route of flight on a common frequency of 126.9 MHz. The details of the procedure are located in the En-route section of the Jeppesen Africa Airway Manual and should be reviewed prior to operation in this geographic area. The IFBP section in the Jeppesen manual addresses the details of changes in cruising level, collision avoidance, normal position reporting procedures, operation of the transponder, use of TCAS, air to air interpilot frequency use, and examples of radio reports.

64
Q

Describe the check required after passing a waypoint in Class II airspace. What is being determined by this check?

GOM 6.5.9.4

14.1.7 Perform International Navigation Procedures

A
  • Approximately ten minutes after passing each waypoint, the steering LRN unit position should be plotted, and all LRN units checked against each other to ensure there are no significant deviations.
  • Record the time (UTC)
  • Verify on-course tracking.
  • The check is designed to ensure that the proper coordinates are inserted in the ‘Next’ position and that the aircraft is tracking to that position. The check does NOT verify the aircraft is in the proper position.
65
Q

In several areas, such as over the Andes in South America, the MEAs for en-route segments may be well above the engine out capabilities of the particular aircraft and weight. Is Kalitta Air authorized to traverse such route? If so, are there any special provisions that must be met? Explain.

GOM 6.5.8

14.1.8 Analyze and Assess Terrain Critical Routes

A

The aircraft must be capable of meeting obstacle clearance requirements along a particular route with an engine inoperative. If diversion procedures, or “escape routes”, are not available or defined, these routes should not be flown, unless weights are reduced to allow compliance with en-route obstruction clearance criteria as described in GOM 6-41, FAR 121.191, and FAR 121.193.

66
Q

While flying in less developed areas, and after receiving a “direct via” off airway routing, what altitude should be consulted on the enroute chart to ensure obstacle clearance requirements can be met? What type of terrain clearance does that altitude afford?

GOM 6.5.8.1

14.1.8 Analyze and Assess Terrain Critical Routes

A

In such instances special attention must be paid to the Grid Minimum Off- route Altitude (MORA). Grid MORAs provide a minimum of 1,000 feet obstacle clearance, or 2,000 feet in mountainous terrain.

67
Q

What is the Engine Failure Procedure in VMC if an engine fails after V1?

FCOM, SP17.7

14.1.8 Analyze and Assess Terrain Critical Routes

A

In VMC, you must fly the runway heading to 1,000ft then maneuver as necessary, unless a Special Engine Failure procedure dictates otherwise.

68
Q

Often the transition level is shown on Jeppesen Approach Charts as “by ATC”. Although the controller should announce the transition level in these circumstances, often they do not. What are some indicators that a flight has been cleared through a transition level?

GOM 6.1.10.2

14.1.9 Perform Altimetry Procedures

A

The flight crew may know they have been cleared through the transition level, (descending) when cleared to maintain an altitude instead of a flight level. Additionally, a flight should be given an altimeter setting when cleared through the transition level.

69
Q

When conducting a course reversal procedure outside of the United States, what must be done to assure obstruction clearance?

GOM 6.6.1.1

14.1.9 Perform Altimetry Procedures

A

Unlike the United States, where a holding pattern can be used as a course reversal, the course reversal procedure must be flown exactly as depicted.

70
Q

Generally speaking, to which altitudes should the altitude correction procedures of GOM Ch. 6 be applied? What altitudes should not be corrected?

14.1.9 Perform Altimetry Procedures

A
  • Apply corrections to all published minimum departure, en route, and approach altitudes according to the table in GOM Ch. 5.
  • ATC-assigned altitudes or flight levels should not be adjusted for temperature.
71
Q

According to GOM Ch. 6, what are some of the effects of operating at the higher than normal true airspeeds associated with high-altitude airport operations?

76
Q

In regard to communicating with controllers outside of the U.S., what four recommendations should be used by crew members in order to avoid miscommunications?

GOM 6.1.13

14.1.11 Perform International Communications

A
  • Use proper ICAO phraseology.
  • Speak slowly and clearly and spell identifiers using the phonetic alphabet (if necessary);
  • Anticipate the controller: For example, be aware of the names of the fixes along the route, review possible SID and STAR names so that they will be familiar when heard.
  • Obtain assistance; ask other crew members to monitor communication, even ACMs (or others), especially if they speak the local language. If unsure of what has been said, insist on verification, no matter how many times it takes; and
  • If necessary, practice sterile cockpit techniques from the top of descent until parked at the ramp.
