Q

When do the fuel filter bypass lights illuminate?

A

The fuel filter bypass caution lights will illuminate whenever the fuel filters of the respective tanks are becoming clogged. This indication will occur prior to the point at which differential fuel pressure will unseat a relief valve within the filter, resulting in unfiltered fuel bypassing the filter and being delivered to the engine.

Define Close Control.
A form of aircraft mission control in which the aircraft is continuously controlled for altitude, speed and heading to a position from which the mission can be accomplished.
53
Define Loose Control
A form of aircraft mission control in which the aircraft commander selects his/her own speed, altitude, heading and appropriate tactics to accomplish the assigned task. The controlling unit (host ship) will advise the aircraft of the current tactical picture and will provide further advice if and when available.
54
Define Broadcast Control
In the absence of full capability, or if the tactical situation precludes close or loose control, aircraft may be operated under broadcast control. Tactical or target information is passed to enable the aircraft to accomplish its task. The controlling unit, when possible, provides adequate warnings of hazards but the Aircraft Commander is responsible for aircraft navigation and collision avoidance.
55
Define Positive Control
The controlling unit is responsible for taking actions for collision avoidance such as ordering necessary alterations to heading, speed and altitude to maintain separation criteria.
56
Define Advisory Control
The controlling unit will provide adequate warnings of hazards affecting aircraft safety. The Aircraft Commander is responsible for the aircraft’s navigation and collision avoidance.
57
The TACCO is responsible to the Pilot for the following:
Safe navigation of the aircraft | Performance of assigned aircrew duties
58
The TACCO is responsible to the MHCC for the following:
Planning the tactics to be employed in the assigned task Ensuring that standard tactical procedures are followed Coordinating and directing operations
59
The AES Op shall be responsible to the pilot for:
Performing aircrew duties as may be assigned and to the MHCC for: The operation of sensors as directed by the TACCO; and The interpretation of sensor information (FOM Appendix 2.2.1.1.C.2 para 5-9)
60
An Air Report is to be passed immediately from the aircraft to the nearest WOC, MOC, ATC Agency or their home unit in the event:
- any armament is dropped outside designated and approved target areas; - any armament is unaccountably expended; - any object unaccountably falls from the aircraft; - the crew sights an uncontrolled fire; - any violation of danger/warning areas by surface craft or aircraft is observed; - any distress signal is sighted or heard; or - actual or suspected lasing incidents.
