What is the minimum time separation for arriving MEDIUM aircraft behind HEAVY aircraft in a non radar-separated flow? |
2 minutes. |
*ICAO PANOPS |
|
|
What is the minimum time separation for arriving LIGHT aircraft behind MEDIUM & HEAVY aircraft in a non radar-separated flow? |
3 minutes |
*ICAO PANOPS |
|
|
What is the min time separation for departing aircraft on the same runway, parallel runways separated by 760m or crossing runways is? |
2 minutes for each aircraft category behind each other LIGHT behind MEDIUM & HEAVY. |
*ICAO PANOPS |
|
|
How are aircraft approach categories defined? |
Categories are grouped by an aircrafts threshold crossing speed Vat. This speed is based on 1.3 x stall speed in the landing configuration at maximum certified landing mass. |
*ICAO PANOPS |
|
|
What is the approach speed range for aircraft in category A? |
< 91-KIAS |
|
|
|
What is the approach speed range for aircraft in category B? |
91-KIAS - 120-KIAS |
|
|
|
What is the approach speed range for aircraft in category C? |
121-KIAS - 140-KIAS |
|
|
|
What is the approach speed range for aircraft in category D? |
141-KIAS - 165-KIAS |
|
|
|
What is the approach speed range for aircraft in category E? |
165-KIAS - 210-KIAS (military Aircraft only) |
|
|
|
What is the definition of a Final Approach Fix (FAF)? |
This is the point in an approach when the final segment of an IFR approach commences. Precision Approach - The point in which the Glide Slope is intercepted. Non-precision Approach - Depicted by a maltese cross. *The aircraft should be fully configured with landing checklist completed. |
|
|
|
What is the definition of Threshold Crossing Height (TCH)? |
The theoretical height above the runway threshold of the aircrafts glideslope antennae when maintaining the glideslope path. |
|
|
|
What does MOCA stand for? |
Minimum Obstruction Clearance Altitude. |
Its a minimum altitude for? |
|
|
What does MORA stand for? |
Minimum Off-Route Altitude. |
Its a minimum altitude for? |
|
|
What does MEA stand for? |
Minimum Enroute Altitude. |
Its a minimum altitude for? |
|
|
What does MSA stand for? |
Minimum Safe Altitude or Minimum Sector Altitude. |
Its a minimum altitude for? |
|
|
What is the definition of MOCA? |
This altitude will provide 1000-ft clearance from obstacles below 5000-ft within 5-nm either side of the route centreline. For obstacles above 5000-ft, a clearance of 2000-ft, 5-nm either side of the route centreline. *Some states may differ in the clearance and lateral distance from route centreline. |
|
|
|
What is the definition of MORA? |
This altitude will provide 1000-ft clearance from obstacles below 5000-ft within 10-nm either side of the route centreline. For obstacles above 5000-ft, a clearance of 2000-ft, 10-nm either side of the route centreline. *Some states may differ in the clearance and lateral distance from route centreline. |
|
|
|
What is the definition of MEA? |
This altitude will provide 1000-ft clearance from obstacles below 5000-ft within 5-nm either side of the route centreline. For obstacles above 5000-ft, a clearance of 2000-ft, 5-nm either side of the route centreline. This clearance is the only altitudes that provides radio coverage. *Some states may differ in the clearance and lateral distance from route centreline. |
|
|
|
What is the definition of MSA? |
ICAO - 1000-ft clearance within a 25-nm radius of a fix. South Africa - 1500-ft clearance within a 25-nm radius of a fix. |
|
|
|
How is MOCA defined on a Jeppesen chart? |
The letter "T" is suffixed to the altitude. |
|
|
|
How is MORA defined on a Jeppesen chart? |
Route MORA - A letter "a" is suffixed to the altitude. Grid MORA - represented by the hundred values of the altitude. Example: 47 is 4700-feet.
|
|
|
|
How is MEA defined on a Jeppesen chart? |
The altitude is neither prefixed or suffixed. |
|
|
|
How is MSA defined on a Jeppesen chart? |
Minimum safe/sector altitude is represented by a circle (25-nm radius) around a fix. |
|
|
|
What is the difference between MOCA and MORA? |
The lateral clearance provided by MOCA is 5-nm where as the clearance for MORA is 10-nm. |
|
|
|
What is the difference between MOCA and MEA? |
MEA provides radio coverage and is not suffixed or prefixed. |
|
|
|
What is the difference between MSA and MORA/MOCA/MEA? |
The lateral clearance is based of a radius on a fix and not either side of an air route centreline. |
Think about the lateral guidance. |
|
|
How do you communicate the following route names: 1. UW467F 2. W65D 3. UQ97R |
They are spoken as: 2. Whiskey 65 3. Upper Quebec 97 |
*The suffix of the route is omitted. |
