Block 1 Mats Flashcards
(27 cards)
Separation Basics
Separate AC according to the following Fundamentals
Safe, Orderly, Efficient
Planning, Executing, Monitoring
Vectoring - 4 Reasons to
Noise Abatement, Necessary for Separation, Operational Advantage,
Pilot Request
Amending Clearances
The last clearance issued takes precedence over, and cancels any related item of a previous clearance
Functional Goal #1
Follow Rules and Guidelines, professionally communicate and being attentive.
ATS Surveillance Service - Fundamental
Use Control procedure in preference to a procedural control unless you or the the pilot are given an operational advantage
Similar Call Signs
Inform both pilots of the concern, change one of them using:
-Restate Airline telephony at the End
- Add Type to AC
- Instruct one to ID with Registration
- Use telephony and last 2 of ID
Maintaining Altitude
Within 200 ft of the assigned altitude for 4 consecutive readouts
Reached an Altitude
4 consecutive readouts of 200 ft from assigned altitude
Simultaneous Descents and Speed Reductions
Reduce then Descend, Descend then reduce.
Note - Together can be difficult may need to level off.
Same Strata
Within 2000 ft, (tech 4000ft) standard is 2000ft
Navigation Assistance when?
unless specifically prohibited use ATS Surveillance to Provide navigation assistance if pilot requests
Vectoring Termination
- Cleared for approach
- Cleared for Hold
- Established on Cleared Route without Nav Assistance
Speed Assignments
If required to achieve or maintain separation, or minimize vectoring, instruct pilot to adjust speed
Correcting a Clearance
If any possibility of misunderstanding; cancel and restate the clearance or instructions in full
Separation from Prominent Obstruction
5 miles if the obstruction is indicated on CSiT or Nards
Vacated an Altitude
Altitude readout changed by more than 300ft in the appropriate direction from the prevailed value
Vectoring into Class G
You may Vector an AC into class G airspace if you inform the pilot and obtain the pilot’s approval
Number Groups
- AC IDs
- AC Types
- Wind Speed
- Cloud Height
- Vertical Visibilty
- 12 Hour Clock
- Calendar Date
- Airway, Q/R route, RNAV
Establishing Contact
Repeat all of ACID with intial contact
Repeat ACID, followed by your unit ID at the end.
Use ‘This is’ if confusion
GOLF - ALPHA - BRAVO - CHARLIE - THIS - IS - TORONTO - TOWER
Passed an Altitude
Altitude readout has changed by 300ft or more in the appropriate direction
SSR & AC Codes Code assignment
Assign an AC with discrete code in preference to non-discrete
VFR -> <=12500 ft = 1200, >12500 ft = 1400
Assign Discrete to
- AC that cancelled Flight plan or closed IFR
- VFR AC when ATS Surveillance Terminated
Observed Deviations
Deviated from assigned FL or Holding
Altitude readout indicates that the AC has deviated by 300ft
The altitude readout indicates AC deviated by 200ft and VMI shows continuing Climb/Descend in appropriate direction
3 Ways to Vector
Fly Heading
Turn Left/Right # of degrees
Turn Left/Right to Degree
3 types of Altitude Reports
Leaving
Passing
Reaching
Keep 2000ft Clearance
