Q

What is SELCAL?

25
cA move to great lake, what will form ?
Steam fog
26
Fly from CYVR to KFLA ? What icing and turbulence you meet ?
Moderate icing & occasional moderate to severe turbulence.
27
What is radiation fog?
Radiation cooling, contact with the earth
28
Fog that forms in the cold air section of a warm front because?
Cold air become saturated from rain falling from warm air
29
GFA distance between the FZRA and first warm front?
150nm
30
How to scan with weather radar TS ?
Middle to lower area
31
TS shows on weather radar an echo up to 90nm ?
The intensity will decrease as distance increase
32
PSR can be use to?
Detect weather, SSR need transponder, can't detect weather.
33
Surface have wind shear, which one is the correct effect?
Increase in A/S
34
Comment fonctionne le DME
Time difference to determine the distance The measurement of the time between the transmission of an aircraft interrogating signal and the receipt of a matched pulse reply signal from a ground station (the 2 signals having different frequencies)
35
Flying through the jetstream, temperature drop, if you want to avoid the jet stream, what would you do ?
Descent
36
How many satellites for 3D view?
4
37
What cause Coriolis force
The earth's rotation axis.
38
Where you can find rotor cloud?
Left side (downwind)
39
A warm and stable air mass go through rocky mountain will form Pacific ocean?
Upslope fog
40
When do you use SSB ?
Must be used to contact FSS
41
Standard at 7000', surface at 20°C, what is the temps at 15 000' ?
-13°C
42
NAT MPNS altitude
FL285 - FL420
43
Jet stream location in winter and summer
Winter in south, summer in north
44
Isotach chart, counter line, altitude gradient?
Slope of the pressure surface
45
For TCAS and ACAS resolution advisory, how to do?
Manœuvre first, then tell ATC, return back to route.
46
The reason for steam fog ?
Raising dewpoint and temperature
47
Fly from cold air (-20°C) descent to an airport at (-9°C dewpoint 8°C) what will happened?
Frost/ice form under fuel tank
48

51
Jet stream which air mass
Polar tropopause, tropical tropopause
52
Cold front in the early afternoon leaving a sky clear, during the next 12h, temperature will?
Increase slightly then decrease
53
Why the temperature decrease slower when saturated air ascending than the unsaturated air will?
Release heat when condensation

In what temperature its easiest to accumulate ice ?
0° to -25°C
55
The vertical distance between any two specific pressure level is ?
Distance is less in cold air
56
Flight low level to a warm front, precipitation changes from steady rain to the showers is ?
The warm air was moisture and unstable
57
FL350 Mb
