Q

What is pattern fuel and touchdown fuel?

A

“Pattern” fuel is a SOF established fuel status in which crews should plan on arriving at initial with that amount of fuel. Crews may elect to continue with pattern ops as long as they touchdown with at least the SOF prescribed “touchdown” fuel amount.

Q

In order to avoid the noise abatement zone when departing RWY 33R…

1) what heading do you turn to
2) when do you turn to that heading
3) where are you going after that

A

1) 010
2) at or no later than 1/2 NM past departure end

24
Q

You are flying the Stereo I to the Shep I MOA and have leveled off at 14,000 MSL. You were cleared to area 4 low a while back.

1) Do you need to continue on the stereo route?
2) When can you climb or descend into the vertical limits of your assigned area?

A

1) No, once level at 14,000’ MSL you can now proceed direct to the lateral boundaries (DME) of your assigned area at 14,000’ MSL.
2) You can climb or descend into vertical boundaries once you are within the lateral boundaries of your assigned area.

25
Q

During the departure, what clearance must you receive in order to proceed direct to your assigned area while climbing or descending to any altitude within the vertical limits of that area?

A

“Blade XX, cleared direct, intermediate level off”

26
Q

If entering the areas from below, via radar vectors (from Hacker or Lawton), and you get this clearance:
“Blade XX, climb and maintain 8,000”
Are you authorized to climb into your area once within it’s lateral boundaries?

A
No!!!
You must get specific clearance such as,
"Blade XX, cleared into area X low" 
"Blade XX, cleared to fly area X low"
in order for you to legally climb into the areas vertical boundaries...
27
Q

If entering the areas from below, via radar vectors (from Hacker or Lawton), and you get this clearance:
“Blade XX, cleared direct, intermediate level off (or unrestricted climb) area X low”
Are you authorized to climb into your area immediately?

A

Yes!

28
Q

What are the altitude blocks for the low and high areas of the Shep I MOA?

A

High: 15,500 - 22,000 MSL
Low: 8,500 - 13,500 MSL

29
Q

Which area has an upper limit of 20,000’ MSL?

A

Area 13

30
Q

With a local area altimeter setting of less than 29.92 the tops of the areas are ______ MSL (______ MSL for area 13).

A

21,000’ MSL

19,000’ MSL for area 13

31
Q

The ____ altimeter setting will be used when working in the area regardless of altitude.

A

Local

32
Q

T-6 A/C will terminate their IFR clearance while working in the ShepI/II MOAs but will then regain the IFR clearance during the FENCE out check.
T or F?

A

False

T-6 aircraft operating in the Sheppard I/II MOAs will maintain their IFR clearance.

33
Q

At what distance from the radar drop-off point (Bridge/Deans) can you cancel you IFR clearance?

A

No more than 5 NM

34
Q

If cleared direct to Deans you should stay (East or West) of Orchard and Pond.

A

East

35
Q

A clearance to an altitude above/below the area is clearance to depart the lateral limits of the area and proceed to the radar drop-off point.
T or F?

A

False

A clearance to an altitude above/below the area is NOT a clearance to depart the lateral limits of the area.

36
Q

What airspeed should you maintain while proceeding to the radar drop-off point?

A

200 Knots

37
Q

What is the radio call you will make to Cooter when holding short of their RWY and ready to takeoff?

A

“Cooter, (call sign), number one, (static).”

38
Q

When would you include the word “static” to the read-back takeoff clearance radio call?
YOU: “Blade XX, cleared for static takeoff RWY 15L.”

A

Add “static” if directed to by Cooter.
i.e. if you didn’t request a static takeoff but Cooter says “cleared static takeoff”, then you add static to your read-back.

39
Q

It is a south flow day, and you are going to the Shep I MOA. You are just passing the gun range:

1) What heading are you turning to?
2) What altitude are you at?
3) What checklist are you accomplishing?

A

1) turning to 130 degrees
2) no more than 1,500’ MSL
3) SUT check
- Mainly switching over to Ch 6 (Shep Dep)

40
Q

When you contact Sheppard Departure what is your radio call?

A

“Sheppard Departure, Blade XX, passing X,XXX’, request Shep I low/high.”

41
Q

What will be your response to the following radio call?

“Blade XX, Sheppard Departure, radar contact, climb and maintain 14,000, cleared Shep I stereo.”

A

“Blade XX, climbing to maintain 14,000’, cleared Shep I stereo.”

42
Q

What is your response to the following radio call?

“(Call sign), frequency change approved.”

A

“Blade XX”

43
Q

What is your radio call when you are prepared to depart the area?

A

“Sheppard Approach, Blade XX, area X low/high, request (Bridge/Deans/Orchard/Pond, Hacker, Post, etc), with (ATIS code).”

44
Q

When the departure controlled hands you off to Approach, what will your radio call to Approach be?

A

Ex: “Sheppard Approach, Blade XX, passing 8,000’, climbing 14,000’.”

When established in the area and Approach Control says, “frequency change approved”, what frequency are you dialing up?

A

Ch 8 for Shep I

Ch 10 for Shep II

46
Q

About how many miles would it take to gain 13,000’ if you were climbing at a constant airspeed of 160 KIAS?

A

13 NM

160 knots gives you approx. a 1:1 ratio (1,000’/1 NM)

47
