NDB tolerances |
App (flight check) +/- 5° En-route (flight check) +/- 10° |
|
VOR tolerances |
En-route (flight check) +/- 3° VOR check pt grnd +/-4° & 0.5 DME Btwn 2 VORs +/- 4° Air to ground check +/- 6° |
|
CDI sensitivity |
VOR = 10° full scale LOC = 2.5° full scale |
|
SSR |
- line of sight range 200-300nm - lat and vert id through mode C & S - allows for MRVA in TCA (1000' clear) |
|
PSR |
- transponder not req - able to see convective buildups - range ~75nm * both PSR & SSR in terminal areas |
|
CAT 2 & 3 ILS |
- OPS spec req - pilot/aircraft/airport certified - conducted in accordance with manual of all wx ops Cat 2: 1/4sm 100'RA Cat 3A: 1/8sm 50'RA Cat 3C: 0/0 |
|
GNSS app at alternate |
1. WAAS/RAIM integrity exp at ETA 2. 1x prior midpoint to dest, verify RAIM at dest and alt 3. Where satellite app planned both dest & alt, a/d seperated by: - 75nm where both NU or N56° QB & LB - 100nn elsewhere 4. For RNP - no credit for LPV - credit only barometric LNAV/VNAV |
|
ADS-B |
- surveillance technology where a/c determines pos via sat & broadcasts - info received by ATC (no interrogation signal needed) - can be received by other a/c (SA and separation) - avionics components i) high integrity GPS nav source ii) data link |
|
GNSS notams |
TSO C129/C129a obtain sat outages through international NOTAM file "KNMH" WAAS notams found on AWWS - NOTAM issued any time outage i. > 15mins ii. 2 outages < 15mins ea separated by period less than 15mins *if once arrived at a/d service is available, may be used as normal |
|
MLAT on ground |
- inc ATS situational awareness of a/c and vehicle ground movements - full surveillance coverage of movement areas - uses transponder - check CFS for procedures |
|
MLAT in air |
- uses number of ground stations - listen for reply to interogation signals - replies received at different times - computer calculates position - uses replies from Mode A/C/S and ADS-B transponders |
|
406 ELT |
- relay pos info to appropriate JRCC - activation detected by satellite - beacon associated with unique user - internal self test capability |
|
Mode S transponder |
- 3D pos - sends pressure alt to ATC (independent of altimeter setting), ATC computer corrects for local pressure - can operate TCAS - interrogates A/C/S xponders - if both mode S, RAs provided |
|
SELCAL |
- transmission of discrete audiotones from gnd stn to alert specific a/c - decoder will alert crew if tones correspond to particular a/c - light or chime activated - indicates to listen on HF radio |
|
Datalink |
- advanced transponder system based on mode S - auto transmits a/c speed, RoC, or clearance acknowledgement direct to controller |
