Atc Seperation

Front 1

Separation minima

Back 1

are the minimum longitudinal, lateral, or vertical
distances by which aircraft are spaced through the application of air
traffic control procedures.

Front 2

Vertical Separation

Back 2

is the vertical spacing of aircraft achieved by the
assignment of different altitudes or flight levels used with radar or nonradar procedures.

Front 3

FL410.

Back 3

1,000 feet for aircraft up to and including

Front 4

FL600

Back 4

2,000 feet for aircraft above FL410 up to and including FL600

Front 5

 5,000 feet

Back 5

 5,000 feet for aircraft flying above FL600

Front 6

Lateral separation

Back 6

is the lateral spacing of aircraft at the same altitude
by requiring operation on different routes or in different geographical
locations.

Front 7

Longitudinal Separation

Back 7

the longitudinal spacing of aircraft at the
same altitude by a minimum distance expressed in units of time or
miles

Front 8

What is the minimum degree of divergence that may be
assigned for the departure divergence rule?

Back 8

45 degrees

Front 9

In the graphic above, what is the minimum longitudinal
separation required in miles with both aircraft using DME? In minutes?

Back 9

20 miles ; 10 minutes

Front 10

In the graphic above, to have the departing aircraft depart
at or after a specified time is the application of what type of separation?

Back 10

longitudinal

Front 11

To clear an aircraft to change altitude at a specified time or
fix is a way to establish what type of separation?

Back 11

longitudinal

Front 12

What is the vertical separation needed below the area?
Above the area?

Back 12

500 feet; 1,000 feet

Front 13

Radar separation

Back 13

is radar spacing of aircraft in accordance with
established minima.

Front 14

The minimum terminal radar separation required for two aircraft 30 NM from
the antenna is ______ miles

Back 14

3

Front 15

The minimum en route radar separation required for two aircraft below
FL600 is ______ miles

Back 15

Front 16

Visual Separation

Back 16

is a means employed by ATC to separate aircraft in
the NAS.

Front 17

For a tower facility to provide visual separation between two arriving IFR
aircraft, the following condition must exist:

Back 17

Both aircraft must be visually observed by the tower.

Front 18

If you had two aircraft at FL310, would you be correct in
assigning one of the aircraft FL320 in order to achieve vertical separation?

Back 18

Yes, unless one of the aircraft is Non-RVSM equipped, you
would need 2,000 feet vertical separation.

Front 19

If you were holding two aircraft at different fixes, one at
6,000 feet, and one at 7,000 feet, but the holding pattern airspace(s)
overlapped each other, would you have separation? If so, what kind?

Back 19

Yes, vertical separation

Front 20

Which type of separation in the en route environment,
other than visual, would allow you to place two aircraft with the least distance
between aircraft?

Back 20

Vertical separation - 1,000 feet
