displaced threshold is a yellow line with arrows pointing towards it.

what are the rules for touchdown/takeoff, taxi, landing roll….

VFR vs IFR

you can taxi here and have prolonged takeoff or landing roll

but it’s risky to land before or take off after the yellow displaced threshold because you might not clear obstacles at end of runway

recommended but not required

VFR can surpass this area using pilots judgement but IFR can NOT and mst stay within boundary

when does SAR begin for a flight plan vs itinerary (standard)

you’re filling in your flight plan and need to write endurance time. how do you write ENDURANCE TIME in a flight plan

in hours and minutes

when should you file your arrival report on a flight plan vs itinerary

asap flight plan = within 1 hr flight itinerary - within 24 hr because SAR will start after that

ICAO

AROWJIL acronym

A = certificate of airworthiness R = registration certificate O = POH W = weight and balance report J = journey log book I = insurance L = licences

certificate of airworthiness: - plane must be flown by who - does it expire? - how does it become invalid? - if there’s an airworthiness defect (AD) what must you do to make it airworthy again

- flight authority (TC certified) - no expire - invalid if flown outside of POH and weight and balance - fix and recertified by A.M.E

what is an AAIR and what does it tell TC

annual airworthiness information report how many hours the plane has flown

certificate of registration - information - if there’s a change, how soon must you notify TC - must have the name of the person actually flying the plane (owner or lessee)

- registration, serial number, owner info, SPECIFIC PURPOSE (private or commercial) - 7 days
