|
No radar service
No weather reporting system established on the field. |
|
|
What does the bold lettered A stand for?
|
Means that an airport has nonstandard alternate minimums. You have to check out in the front of the approach plate book to see what the min's are.
|
|
|
what does the bold T stand for?
|
Means that an airport has nonstandard t/o Minimums. Airport could have either an odp or sid in place.
|
|
|
What is a sid?
|
a sid is a standard instrument departure procedure, often used to relieve congestion in the air and on the radio.
|
|
|
what is an odp?
|
obstacle departure procedure. used to clear obstacles and establish aircraft on a route. also used to relieve congestion on the radion and in the air.
|
|
|
what are the standard alternate minimums?
|
nonprecision 800-2
precision 600-2 Adhere to the min's published for that airport upon arrival. |
|
|
What is Mea?
|
Minimum enroute altitude. gurantees obstacle clearance and both navigation and comm reception.
|
|
|
what is a Moca?
|
Min obstruction clearance altitude. gurantees obstacle clearance and acceptable nav signal within 22nm of a navaid.
|
|
|
what is a maa
|
Maximum authorized altitude. Highest point which can be flown on an airway before you pick up more than one navigation signal.
|
|
|
What is mca?
|
Minimum crossing altitude. have to climb and cross at this altitude due to an obstacle along the route.
|
|
|
what is oroca?
|
off route obstruction clearance altitude. means that obstacle clearances will be met off of airways.
|
|
|
What is a MRA?
|
minimum reception altitude. Have to get to this altitude before acceptable nav signals can be picked up. Don't have to climb until this point is passed.
|
|
|
What are the standard obstruction clearance distances?
|
1000ft in standard terrain.
2000 ft in mountainous terrain. |
|
|
What is required to be known by any pic before an ifr cross country?
|
Runways, alternates, weather, notams, fuel, atc delays, t/o and landing distances.
|
|
|
what is a composite flight plan?
|
a flight plan which incorporates both ifr and vfr phases of flight.
|
|
|
What are the mandatory reports when not in radar contact over a reporting point?
|
Identification, position,time, altitude, type of flight plan, name and eta to next fix, name of next fix, remarks.
|
|
|
Mandatory reports when in radar contact?
|
fixes, leaving and reaching/ altitudes-leaving and reaching. missed approaches. equipment loss. performance- 5% or 10 kts tas. unable to climb @ 500fpm. eta in excess of 3 minutes.
|
|
|
Mandatory reports when not in radar contact?
|
faf inbound. time in excess of 3 minutes.
|
|
|
What do the transponder codes mean? 1200, 7500, 7600,7700,7777.

|
|
|
3 types of holds.
|
parallel, teardrop, direct.
|
|
|
What are the standard holding speeds?
|
min ifr-6000 = 200
6001 - 18000 =230 18000 up = 265 |
|
|
what are the standard hold times below 14000 ft?
|

minute and a half inbound and outbound legs.
|
|
|
Required documents
|

|
|
|
Required equipment for day vfr flight.
|
tach/ oil pressure/manifold pressure/ altimeter/temp guage if air cooled/ oil temp if liquid cooled/fuel guages/landing gear indicator/ airspeed indicator/ mag compass/ elt/ seatbelts.
|
|
|
Required night vfr.
|
fuses(or circuit breakers) / landing light if for hire/ anti-collision lights/ position lights/ source of electrical power.
|
|
|

|
Generators, radios, altimeter(with kolesman window), ball indicator, clock(2nd hand sweeping, installed, working) attitude indicator, rate of turn indicator, directional gyro.
|
|
|
Required inspections
|

|
|
|
Explain Currency requirements to act as pic of an aircraft in ifr.
|
After a checkride you get six months of currency. after six months you get a grace period of six months. after the grace period you need to get an ipc with an appropriatly rated instructor or have another checkride.
|
|
|
what do you need to do to get current to act as pic in ifr flight conditions?
|
have to shoot six different approaches, track courses, holds.
|
|
|
If you needed to get current during your grace period, how would you go about doing it?
|
You would have to have a flight in simulated instrument conditions(with a safety pilot) or a flight training device.
|
|
|
who can be a safety pilot when you are in simulated instrument conditions?
|
have to be; at least a private pilot, 90 day current in cat and class, have a current medical, recieved a biannual flight review.
|
|
|
who is pilot in command during simulated instrument conditions with a safety pilot?
|
both people are considered pic. however, the person flying is "acting" as pic. when the safety pilot is flying he/she is "acting"pic. both log pic time.
|
|
|
when is a procedure turn not required during an approach?
|
when plate declares "nopt", a hold is replaces the turn, vectored by atc, otherwise notified by atc, when conducting a timed approach.
|
|
|

|
instrument cross check/ instrument interpretation/ aircraft control.
|
|
|
