VFR Rules Of The Air

Question 1

VFR rules is annex

Answer 1

Annex 2

Question 2

Vmc minima class A,B,C,D and E

Answer 2

Above 10,000 = 8km vis 1500m away from cloud

Below 10,000 = 5km vis 1000ft vertical and 1500m horizontal from cloud

Question 3

Vmc minima class F and G

Answer 3

Above 10,000 = 8km vis, clear of cloud

Below 10,000 = 5km vis 1000ft vertical and 1500m horizontal from cloud

Below 3000ft = 5km vis, clear of cloud, insight of ground, 1000 separation AGL

Question 4

Approaching an a/c head on

Answer 4

20* of the nose

Turn to the RIGHT

Question 5

Converging a/c are type

Answer 5

A/c that has the other on the right shall give way

Question 6

2 or more a/c are l/d who has right of way

Answer 6

A/c at the higher level shall give way to the a/c at the lower level
But
The latter shouldn’t take advantage to cut in-front of the other a/c

Question 7

Manoeuvring area

Answer 7

Everything on an aerodrome apart from the apron

Question 8

Nav lights

Answer 8

Indicate the path of the a/c

When moving on the manoeuvre area these need to be on - need to display the extremities of the a/c

Green = right

Red = left

Question 9

Simulated IMC can’t be flown unless

Answer 9

Dual controls are fitted
Qualified pilot is occupying the other seat as the safety pilot - needs to be type rated with decent fwd vision
Or
A competent observer is present in communication with the safety pilot - same field of vision as the safety pilot

Can only be carried out in VMC

Question 10

Flights in the vicinity of the aerodrome

Answer 10

Have the field in view

Make turns to the left when aprching for l/d and t/o unless told otherwise
Should make all aprch into wind unless
Safety
R/y config
Air traffic considerations determine otherwise

Question 11

Flight plans shall be submitted

Answer 11

Any flight/ portion thereof to be provided with an ATS
Any IFR flight with advisory airspace
Any flight within or into designated areas/routes
Crossing borders/FIR

Shall be submitted no later than 60mins prior to dep for a controlled flight

Shall be submitted at least 10mins before a/c is estimated to reach entry into CAS / crossing airway/ADR

Question 12

Repetitive flight plan (RPC)

Answer 12

May be used if the flight is on the same days of consecutive weeks and on at least 10 occasions
Or
Every day over a period of 10 consecutive days

Series of reoccurring fights with identical basic features

Question 13

Arrival report and what does it consist of

Answer 13

Flight plan is closed on receipt of this

Consists of
A/c ident
Dep and Destiny aerodrome
Time of arrival

Question 14

Flight plan delays

Answer 14

The flight plan should be amended/ cancelled if there is a delay of

30 mins in excess of estimated off blocks time for a controlled flight

Excess of 1 hour for an uncontrolled flight

Question 15

Time checks are passed to the pilot to the nearest

Answer 15

Half min

Question 16

Clearances

Answer 16

Issued solely for expediting and separating air traffic

Obtained prior to operating a controlled flight

Question 17

Flight plan - when to inform changes to ATC

Answer 17

If the average TAS at cruising level varies by +/- 5%

If the next reporting point increases by 2mins

Any significant change

Question 18

Change over points should be

Answer 18

Every 60nm

Change VOR at a specific point along an airway

Question 19

Position report and what does it contain

Answer 19

Must report posn unless told not to by ATC

Consists of 
Callsign 
Name and time over rp 
FL 
Time expected over next rp and name of next rp

Question 20

Termination of control

Automatically upon l/d

Question 21

Comms failure VMC

Answer 21

L/d and nearest suitable aerodrome
And
Report arrival asap to the ATCU

Squawk mode C and 7600

Question 22

Comms failure IMC

Answer 22

Radar vectored - squawk 7600 and return directly to re-join the flight planned route and level no later than the next significant point

Radar monitored - squawk 7600 and return to flight plan after 7mins

Question 23

Comms failure not under radar

Answer 23

Fly assigned speed and level for 20mins

Commence descent from specified nav aid at or close to the last eat

Complete normal inst aprch

L/d if possible within 30mins after eta
