VII-APPROACH AND LANDING

Question 1

AEROPLANES CATEGORIES

Answer 1

a/c approach cat. Are determined by threshold speed (Vat)

Vat = stallion speed X 1.3

CAT A: < 91Kt
CAT B: 91Kt - 120Kt
CAT C: 121Kt - 140Kt
CAT D: 141Kt - 165Kt
CAT E: 166Kt - 210Kt

Question 2

STARTING & CONTINUING APPROACH

Answer 2

Approach cannot be continued below 1000ft if RVR < Minima

After passing 1000ft approach may be continued to DH or MDH

At DH or MDH landing can be done if visual ref. is established. If no => Go around

Question 3

CONVERTED MET VISIBILITY AND RVR

CVM

Answer 3

HI approach and runway lighting:
CVM Day: 1,5
CVM Night : 2

Any other lighting:
CVM Day: 1
CVM Night: 1,5

No Lighting:
CVM Day: 1
CVM Night: not applicable

Question 4

VISUAL APPROACH

Answer 4

RVR mini 800m

Question 5

NON-PRECISION APPROACH

Answer 5

MDH / DH > 250ft
RVR / CMV > 750m

NPA use CFDA technique

MDH 250

Question 6

CIRCLING APPROACH

Answer 6

a/c CAT A:
MDH: 400ft
Met Vis: 1500m

a/c CAT B:
MDH: 500ft
Met Vis: 1600m

a/c CAT C:
MDH: 600ft
Met Vis: 2400m

a/c CAT D:
MDH: 700ft
Met Vis: 3600m
