When is clearance required between different air spaces? Vol1 ENR 1.1-12
|
All aircraft, helicopters, vehicles, equipment and pedestrians to operate in a manoeuvring area in a controlled aerodrome when ATC is in attendance
Required by IFR flights in class C or D and VFR flights in class C or D
|
|
|
Rights of way
|
Head-on alter course to right Converging aircraft to right has right of way / alter course to right Overtaking alter course right |
|
|
What are the special use airspaces? |
Restricted area: Entry only after authorization Danger area: Entry at own risk, assess dangers prior to entry Military operating area: Entry only after authorization Volcanic hazard zone: Entry only VMC by day Mandatory broadcast zone: Broadcast position, intentions on entering zones, circuit and runway |
|
|
What are the requirements for transponders? Vol1 ENR 1.4-3 |
All controlled airspace in New Zealand is Transponder Mandatory airspace, meaning XPDRs must be on in Mode A and Mode C unless otherwise approved by ATC. |
|
|
What are the avoidance requirements around sensitive areas?
|
1000ft vertical clearance or 1nm horizontal clearance
|
|
|
Vol1 ENR 5.5-6 |
A VFR Transit Lane is part of a CTR or CTA released as Class G airspace during daylight hours only to allow VFR aircraft to transit through airspace not normally used by IFR aircraft.
|
|
|
What is the difference between a CTR and a CTA?
|
CTRs are associated with aerodrome operations and are the only form of controlled airspace that touch the surface of the earth.
CTAs extend from a specified lower limit to a specified upper limit. Designed to encompass flight paths of IFR approach, departure and enroute operations.
|
|
|
What are some ground signals at airfields? Vol1 AD 1.9-3
|
|
|
|
What are the different altimeter settings and when are they used? Vol1 ENR 1.7-3
|
QNH - aerodrome pressure corrected for mean sea level pressure. Altimeter reads height AMSL for a QNH zone, usually issued by ATC. Used when below 13000ft or descending through 15000ft.
QNE - pressure altitude above standard atmosphere pressure of 1013.25hPa. Used for flight levels above 13000ft AMSL.
QFE - Pressure altitude above aerodrome. Altimeter reads height AGL. Used for aerobatic displays at aerodromes. |
|
|
What are the requirements for a VFR flight plan? Vol1 ENR 1.10-23 |
A VFR flight plan is required prior to the start of any flight under VFR if: It is panned for the aircraft to proceed more than 50nm from shore; or An alerting service is required. Aircraft Registration Aircraft callsign Aircraft type Route details including destination SARTIME Fuel endurance Number of POB Other information Pilot in command Contact number Operator |
|
|
What are the emergency transponder codes?
|
7600 - Communication failure 7700 - Emergency |
|
|
What are the considerations when flying through overlapping airspaces? |
SUAs have priority over CTRs/CTAs Where different classes of airspace adjoin one above the other, flights at the common level will comply with the requirements of, and be given services applicable to the less restrictive class of airspace |
