Test 3 C-12 AQC Flashcards
Define Performance Based Navigation.
An advanced, satellite-enabled form of air navigation that creates precise 3-D flight paths.
Define Area Navigation.
RNAV is a key enabler of PBN; it is a set of specifications that define flight paths and validate aircraft position.
All named waypoints in the GPS database are identified with a _______ designation provided by the National Flight Data Center (NFDC).
Five-letter
Use of DD Form 1801 (DoD International Flight Plan) or equivalent FAA Form 7233-4 is recommended for domestic IFR flights and required by the FAA for filers desiring assignment of ___________ or other PBN routing.
RNAV SIDs and STARs
Two levels of GPS accuracy are available: Standard Positioning Service (SPS) and ___________.
Precise Positioning Service (PPS)
Pilots will check GPS NOTAMs and/or Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) prior to flight.
True
An area in which ATC may provide random radar vectors during uninterrupted climb from runway to Minimum Vectoring Altitude is called ______________.
Diverse Vector Area
A suitable GPS system may also be used as a means to navigate on the final approach segment of an instrument approach procedure based on a VOR, TACAN or NDB signal without the need to monitor the underlying NAVAID.
False
The C-12U is authorized to perform RNAV(GPS) approach procedures to the _____________ minimums.
LNAV
Required Navigation Performance - Authorization Required, or RNP-AR approaches will always have (GPS) in the approach title.
False
In the unlikely event of complete radio failure, follow the procedures described in the ___________ for two-way radio communications failure.
FIH
The PT6A-42 engine has two igniter plugs which are located at ____________.
4 o’clock and 9 o’clock
The outlet pressure at the high-pressure fuel pump is _______.
900 - 1100 psi
The torque limiter monitors torquemeter oil pressure, and if the engine produces excessive torque, the limiter bleeds off governing air pressure within the FCU to reduce fuel flow, which in turn ___________.
reduces N1 speed
The oil pressure caution range below 21,000 feet is ________.
85-100 psi
The max torque percent with less than 1600 propeller RPM is ________.
49%
Normal climb and cruise TGT is _______.
770 C
All Emergency and Abnormal Operations Procedures can be found in which chapter of the flight manual?
Chapter 9
Beta and reverse blade angles are controlled by the ________ in the beta and reverse range.
power levers
If the primary governor fails, the overspeed governor will activate at approximately ____________.
2080 RPM
When the left propeller is operating at a higher RPM, a black and white cross pattern Synchroscope located on the pilot’s instrument panel will ________.
spin in the direction of the higher RPM propeller.
The AUTOFEATHER system will not activate unless the AUTOFEATHER switch is in ARM, the power levers are at the 90% N1 or greater position, and ____________.
the high and low pressure switches sense torque loss
The maximum propeller overspeed limit is ___________ RPM and is time-limited to 5 seconds.
2200
During approach, propellers should be set to at least _________ RPM to prevent glideslope interference (ILS approach), provide better power response during approach, and minimize altitude change when advancing propeller levers for landing.
1900
