Be compliant with rules of air unless absolutely necessary to do so

Study all weather reports

Has final authority as of the disposition of the aircraft

Answer 9

0.2 promise (20mgs/100ml)

Question 10

When approaching an aircraft head on how should you avoid conflict

Answer 10

Turn to the right

Head on = within 20° either side of nose

Question 11

2 aircraft of same type are converging

Answer 11

Give way to the right

Question 12

Order of priority with aircraft

Answer 12

F lying machines
A air ships
G gliders
B balloons

Question 13

What is the over taking position

Answer 13

Within 70° either side of the tail

= will see white light

Question 14

If you can see 2 coloured lights what does this mean

Answer 14

Head on

Question 15

What is a manoeuvring area

Answer 15

Everywhere except aprons and maintenance

Question 16

What is a movement area

Answer 16

Everywhere including aprons and maintenance

Question 17

When should aircraft lights be illuminated

Answer 17

Sunset to sunrise:

When moving on the movement area nav lights should be on

On the movement area aircraft should display lights at their extremities unless stationary and otherwise illuminated

On engine start

Question 18

When can simulated IMC take place

Answer 18

If dual controls are fitter

Qualified pilot occupies a control seat as safety pilot
= does not need to be type rated

If safety pilot doesn’t have adequate all round vision = a competent observer can be used

Only in VMC

Question 19

When do you need a flight plan

Answer 19

Any IFR flight within advisory airspace

Any flight across international borders

Question 20

When should a flight plan be submitted

Answer 20

60 mins prior to departure to a ATS reporting office

In air:
At least 10 min before estimated to reach CAS or crossing an airway

Question 21

When are changes to a flight plan to be reported for IFR or VFR operates as controlled flight

Answer 21

As soon as practical

Question 22

What counts as a significant change in flight plan

Answer 22

Regarding fuel and endurance and POB

Question 23

When can a repetitive flight plan be filled

Answer 23

Operated:

Same day(s) of consecutive weeks and on at least 10 occasions

Everyday over at least 10 consecutive days

Question 24

When does a flight plan close

Answer 24

On receipt of an arrival report

Question 25

When should a flight plan be amended or cancelled for a delay

Answer 25

Delay in excess of 30 mins of estimates blocks off time for controlled flight

Excess of 1 hour for uncontrolled flight

Question 26

When should a time check be obtained

Answer 26

Prior to operating s controlled flight

Time check gotten from ATC to neared half minute

Question 27

Why are clearness issued

Answer 27

Solely for expediting and separating air traffic

Question 28

What speed / time deviations on route must you tell atc if they deviate from flight plan

Answer 28

+/- 5% of TAS on flight plan

Or

ETA changes by more than 2 mins

Question 29

How often should VOR be changed

Answer 29

Every 60 mins

Question 30

What is in a position report

Answer 30

Call sign

Name and time over next reporting point

Flight level

Time expected over next reporting point

Next reporting point after the next reporting point without time

Question 31

What does the reaction to a communications failure depend on

Answer 31

VMC OR IMC

NOT

VFR OR IFR

Question 32

How will atc confirm a communications failure

Answer 32

Request you to:

Execute a specific manoeuvre which can be observed by radar

Transmit a signal in order to indicate acknowledgement

Atc will always transmit blind instructions incase u can hear them

Question 33

what action should be taken for communications failure in Vmc

Answer 33

Land at nearest suitable aerodrome

Squak 7600 + mode c

Question 34

What action should be taken of communications failure in IMC being radar vectored

Answer 34

Squawk 7600 and return to flight plan no lager then next significant point

In en route under radar = after 7 mins

If en route not under radar = after 20 mins

Question 35

How should you approach an aerodrome with communications failure in imc

Answer 35

Commence descent at last expected approach time (EAT)

Or if no EAT

Approach no greater than 30 mins after ETA

Question 36

What should you do if forced to deviate in event of unlawful interference

Answer 36

If no regional procedures:

Fly at a level different from IFR levels by 1000ft if > FL290

Or 500ft

Question 37

What should you do if intercepted

Answer 37

7700

Always follow instructions of man with the rockets

Answer 38

When ceiling < 1500ft

Ground vis <5km

Answer 39

Above FL 200

Above FL290 where RVSM

highest VFR flight level in RVSM is FL285
