1
Q

Sector calls you with a point out climbing to an altitude and you have one or two pieces of traffic - what do you do?

A

PVD your traffic to that sector
“Reference traffic, NE SQS N123LP”
They reply with traffic observed
“Point Out Approved”

Q

Negative transponder 090 or below

A

Flash them to APCH control first for position verification

“JAN APCH, JAN LO, Position Verification”
“24 NW JAN Vortac, primary target is call sign, at 080”
They will say call sign, radar contact
“R-Side, Call sign position verified”

Q

Printing a strip for Emergency - first and most important thing to do

A

Check mark or update altitude, put an R for radar contact. Everything else can be done after

Q

45 Requests lower

A

We don’t have to point them out descending to a safe altitude we approve - we just tell R-Side they are descending and only update the data block if the aircraft is already handed off to us
“240T240” - INT CID
“240C” - ALT 220 (or whatever they ask) CID
If there’s traffic, same procedure except
“240C” - INT for altitude we approved and ALT for one they requested

Q

GWO Emergency

A

“Mileage from the airport, call sign, declared an emergency, nature of emergency, pilot requests, visual approach OR APREQ Visual approach runway 5”

20
Q

0M8 Departure going Southbound

A

Don’t need the block but a point out or an APREQ of climb might be required depending on route

21
Q

Stripmarking for departures

A

Circle reroute in red after it’s put into the computer

If preplanned - circle in black when issued to the aircraft, circle in red when put into the computer

22
Q

When R357 or SUA goes active

A

Scan immediately for traffic at those altitudes

23
Q

No transponder above FL180

A

Flash aircraft to next sector and then call for the APREQ (sector ID CID)

24
Q

APREQ from 45 requesting descent into a different altitude

A

“Call Sign descending to whatever you can assign approved”

25
Q

JAN APCH ARTS fails

A

Manual Handoff on all aircraft

No transponder aircraft - “Mileage, primary target is call sign, at altitude”

26
Q

Scan ACL for

A

Military aircraft in flight of 2
FL180
Arrivals in gate

27
Q

APREQs to the next sector-

A

Block Altitude
No transponder at FL180 and above
IOFDOF

28
Q

Handoff without ARTS working

A

“Handoff, Primary target is …”

29
Q

Primary targets - handoff with ARTS working

A

“Position verification, primary target is…”

30
Q

Receiving a handoff on a primary target

A

“Radar Contact”

“R-Side, call sign position verified”

31
Q

Aircraft requests lower over APCH airspace

A

“Point out, mileage, call sign, at altitude descending to requested altitude, southwest bound”

32
Q

VKS Departures to SQS

A

Need to have BLE amended into their route if /A or /I
Can tell R-Side “VKS departure climbing to 4000, when able clear direct SQS”
Different than 0M8 where you can’t say it until the aircraft has been pointed out to 67

33
Q

Yellow and red alerts are not your problem if

A

You didn’t climb or descend them

34
Q

Emergency Procedure - Arrival

A
  1. Request control of aircraft if not in your airspace - “Request control of N123 for turns and descent” Tell R-side aircraft is his control for turns and descent
  2. Route Aircraft to the new destination via R-Side’s clearance
  3. Coordinate with appropriate next facility - KGWO, APCH, “Emergency inbound, Call Sign, nature of emergency, pilot request. visual approach or APREQ Visual approach runway 5 (GWO only) Direct Jackson airport descending to (110/130) no speed restrictions (APCH Only)”
  4. Tell r-side emergency info has been coordinated
  5. Print strip “R for radar contact, altitude descending to, emergency info circled in red, airport circled in red (for APCH) VA circled in red (for GWO).
  6. Tell Supervisor
  7. Strip is deadwood once communication change has been issued for APCH or GWO calls with a downtime.
35
Q

NORDO aircraft

A

Tell R-Side and supervisor before they enter our sector
Overflight - handoff status “information - call sign is nordo”
Arrival - Pass information about call sign being nordo
Once they get radios back initiate the handoff, call APCH and APREQ Call sign, direct Jan/MLU vortac descending to 110/130 no speed restrictions
Tell supervisor call sign radios back

36
Q

Analyze red alerts

A

If everything is trial planning red - look at the time it’s anticipating the alert. If it’s well into the future, far away from your airspace, it’s not really a red alert for you.

37
Q

Aircraft requests different altitude already in APCH airspace

A

Call to get control - Only a point out if they are descending from above their airspace into their airspace, or just clipping the corner of their airspace

38
Q

Muted reds

A

Treat as an actual red alert - don’t assume the aircraft will call for a descent.
Call next sector and request him at a different altitude.

39
Q

Tell Supervisor

A 
2 WX Deviations
Mod turbulence - altitude and location
Change of destination - civilian
Unscheduled holding
Emergency info
Lost transponder 100 and above
Equip issues after 2
Nordo aircraft and radios back
GIs or calls affecting sector operations
40
Q

Taking down a flight plan

A

“Radar contact - standby”
Tell R-Side, “I accepted a handoff, direction, code is call sign at altitude”
Get rest of the flight plan - after filling the strip check mark altitude, put R and post it in the active bay

41
Q

Manual Handoffs

A

Constitutes an equipment failure

42
Q

Aircraft requesting to deviate/climb/descend etc

A

Look where he is - you might need to request control from 2 sectors

43
Q

Point outs on deviations

A

Look at the altitude block - if there’s a T point out climbing to his requested altitude

44
Q

Pilot request vs phone line

A

Pilot requests have higher priority

45
Q

Weather interface down

A

Pass along in briefing
