|
121 reduced take off minima requirements |
- both pilots are qualified - ruwnay has centre line markings - reduced takeoff minima published in the aip - autofeather - visibility established using RVR - method for observing required visibility is acceptable to the Director |
|
|
|
What does an IFR alternative need (aside from suitable weather) |
- a secondary power supply for the ground based navaids for approach likely to be used - aerodrome lighting for night operations
(this is a CAA rule, our SOP says as long as either destination or alternate has a ground based nav aid its fine) |
|
|
|
What is the IFR holding fuel for a turbine? |
30 minutes at 1500' agl |
|
|
|
How far does a twin engine 121 aircraft need to be from an adequate aerodrome? |
60 minutes OEI still air ISA |
|
|
|
When can GPS approach not be commenced? |
While a RAIM warning is displayed |
|
|
|
IFR aircraft are required to climb to a minimum of how many feet prior to commencing a turn to intercept track? |
400' |
|
|
|
What do you do if on approach and nav aid fails? |
Swap to another if prevailing conditions met the other one, and advise ATC in controlled airspace |
|
|
|
When do you set the ALT SEL to MDA on a LOC, VOR approach? |
Once the initial approach altitude has been captured, or on the advisory profile |
|
|
|
When do you set the missed approach altitude on a LOC, VOR approach? |
1000' above derived MDA |
|
|
|
How is circling MDA calculated? |
1,000' AAL or AIP minima + 50'
(whichever is higher) |
|
|
|
What are the visibility requirements for a circling approach? |
Published minimum visibility OR 5000m (whichever is higher) |
|
|
|
What does a TEMPO mean when used in a TAF? |
Temporary fluctuations that last for less than one hour total and all up less than half the total validity time of the TEMPO |
|
|
|
Every _______ ° on a ____ DME arc is ____ nm |
Every 6° on a 10DME arc is 1nm travelled |
|
|
|
How much should you anticipate the turn onto the arc by? |
1% of your groundspeed, half it, then add 0.5 nm ie. 260kts, would be 1.3+0.5 so anticipate by 1.8nm |
|
|
|
Do both pilots need to agree to reduced vertical separation? |
Yes |
|
|
|
What does "minimum fuel" mean to ATC? |
All planned options have been reduced to a specific aerodrome of intended landing, and and changes to a clearance may result in landing with less than planned final reserve
(this is not an emergency situation, but it could be if a delay occurs) |
|
|
|
When are pilots required to notify ATC about RAIM warnings? |
A RAIM warning has been displayed for 10 minutes, or you've been in DR mode for one minute OR There is a RAIM failure |
|
|
|
In an Approach or Terminal area, how much is the value of full lateral needle deflection? |
1nm (0.5 between each mark) |
|
|
|
Outside of Approach and Terminal areas, how much is full lateral needle deflection? |
5nm |
|
|
|
How much is full scale FMS vertical deflection both in and out of approach phase? |
500' or 150' |
|
|
|
What are the engagement conditions for the prop brake? |
- CL FTR or FUEL SO - Gust lock on - Blue hydraulic pressure 2900psi |
|
|
|
ATPCS arming conditions |
- PWR MGT TO - ATPCS PB ON - PL > 49° - TQ > 46% |
|
|
|
What is local standby? |
Aircraft is in, or suspected to be in, an impaired state but should not prevent a safe landing |
|
|
|
What is full emergency? |
When the aircraft is, or suspected to be in, a state that there is danger of an accident |
|
|
|
What does STNR mean in a SIGMET? |

|
|
What is an OEB? |
Used to rapidly inform operators of any deviations from initial design objectives that have a significant operational impact |
|
|
|
When deciding whether or not to nominate an alternate, is the 1000' cloud base AGL or MDA? |
MDA! |
|
|
|
What is the gradient on the missed approach to ensure airspace containment? |
