QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Alternate minimums:
PA
NPA. ANSWER -600' Ceig 2SM
800' Ceig 2SM
OBS of your VOR is set to 150* and needle is centred. The To/From meter is
unserviceable. How can you resolve the ambiguity?. ANSWER -Rotate the OBS 10* to
160*
Needle moves left, AC is on the TO side
Needle moves right AC is on the FROM side of the station
Isolated CB's are?. ANSWER -Individual Cells
ASI reads high during a climb a pitch increase results in a further increase in the ASI
reading - Why?. ANSWER -Pitot tube and drain hole must both be iced over.
Acceleration of the AC during a missed approach could cause a pilot to do what?. ANSWER
-Lower the nose of the AC which will degrade the required climb (Sensory illusion of
pitching up due to acceleration)
Exam gives you an approach plate depicts an NDB approach but it also provides a step-
down fix based on a DME (if you did not have DME, then this lower altitude would not
apply).. ANSWER -Question asks for what NAV equipment is required for this approach.
- An ADF is all that is required according to the procedure title-
[If you have DME then you have the advantage of the step down fix (and a lower MDA is
then authorized)]
, What is a black dashed line on a LO Chart?. ANSWER -RNAV Route
Define Class B airspace.. ANSWER -All Controlled Low Level airspace above 12,500 ASL
or at and above the MEA whichever is higher
Question on the minimum flight planning altitude pilots should use over the snow laden
mountains of Canada during the wintertime. ANSWER -At least 1000' above the published
MEA's
From whom do you obtain a SIGMET?. ANSWER -Flight Service Specialist (FSS)
126.7MHz
Comm failure during a SID. ANSWER -Read the SID chart Comm Failure Section
Question on T.O. minima when RVR is fluctuating.. ANSWER -OK if Tower VIS is 1/2SM
or Greater
When the term "Approximately" is used in a NOTAM. ANSWER -It must be follower later
by either a [R]eplacing NOTAM or a [C]ancelling NOTAM
On a missed approach, if no further clearance has been received what should you do?.
ANSWER -Hold at the missed approach fix if there is a published hold there OR if none
published, hold (right turns - standard) on the initial inbound heading that took you directly
to the fix.
When must clearances and instructions issued by ATC be followed?. ANSWER -Remember
that clearances and instructions that are issued by ATC are only valid while the AC is
operating in CONTROLLED airspace.
Once Clear of controlled airspace, you no longer have to maintain the last assigned altitude.
Does a heading amendment or altitude amendment to a SID cancel the SID?. ANSWER -
No
Black Hole Illusion. ANSWER -would cause a pilot to fly a visual approach too low.
