Q

Single Coded ID every 30 seconds from VORTAC

A

DME code sounds every 30 seconds, so this means DME is operative. But the VOR code cannot be heard, and it should sound 3-4 times every 30 seconds so this means VOR is inop

Q

VFR on top clearance is based on magnetic, heading or course?

A

Magnetic course

25
Rule of thumb is to avoid restricted and prohibited areas by at least
3NM
26
What type of altitude am I using at flight level 210?
Pressure (29.92 altimeter setting will give the pressure altitude)
27
“Resume own navigation” after being vectored to a victor airway. You should.
Maintain airway by use of your own navigation equipment
28
What three instruments are affected if the Venturi is clogged by ice?
Turn coordinator, heading indicator and attitude indicator (all bank gyros)
29
How can you obtain an IFR clearance when there is no clearance delivery frequency listed?
Contact flight service before Taxi (do not use departure and approach control frequency)
30
Main purpose of vertical decent angle for non-precision approaches
to establish stabilize decent
31
(D) notams
Airports and nav facilities (ex runway closures)
32
FDC Notams
Flight data center notams- IFR changes (airways or approaches)
33
Air data computer malfunctions. What info unreliable?
Primary flight display (PFD) airspeed, altitude, and vertical speed
34
“Minimum fuel “– what does this imply to ATC?
Advisory – emergency situation possible
35
To level off from descent at a higher speed, add power— feet above the desired altitude
100-150
36
During standard rate level turn, what effect does increase in air speed have on the rate and radius of turn?
Radius would increase, rate would decrease
37
Taking off runway 4 behind a Boeing 737. Which wind will prolong wake turbulence?
180@5 It’s a light quartering tail wind Requires maximum caution Can move the with turbulence into the touchdown zone ⚠️
38
Glidepath qualification surface (GQS) limits height of obstructions between
DA and threshold
39
What airspace exists from ground to 1200 feet above Bryce Canyon Airport?
Class G
40
Hdg 280, turn right 350.
E/W correct smooth
41
On approach, ATC advises inop equipment

180 S 360 N
46
FAA wrong Ammended from IGN to SAX
Middle 41 min 12 gallons
47
Hdg 350 N Left turn to 280
N- opposite (slower)
48
Middle and far bars of 3 bar VASI
Like 2 bar VASI for UPPER glidepath
49
Rate of descent required to stay on the ILS glide slope
Must be decreased if the ground speed is decreased
50
ATC instructs you to reduce your speed. You comply by
Reducing speed and maintaining PLUS OR MINUS 10 knots
51
Pilot action if more than one component of an ILS is unusable?
Use the HIGHEST minimum required by any single unusable component
52
Approach advises of inoperative equipment. You must.
Increase minimums to that of the interoperative equipment
