Define dew point Correct Answer The temperature to
which air must be cooled at a constant pressure to
becomes saturated.
How do you estimate the base height of a cloud using the
dew point and temperature? Correct Answer Temperature
- Dew point (Dew point spread) x 400.
At what rate does saturated air cool and at what rate does
dry air cool? Correct Answer Saturated=1.5 degrees/1000
feet
dry= 3 degrees/1000 feet
Stratus clouds are known for what type of precipitation?
Correct Answer Drizzle
If winds are veering, which direction are they shifting too?
Correct Answer Clockwise
Typically during climb out what do the winds do? Correct
Answer Veer and increase
,What is the Air mass that usually occurs only in the winter
time over Canada? Correct Answer continental Arctic (cA)
What is the Air mass that usually occurs only in the
summer time over Canada? Correct Answer Maritime
Tropical (mT)
What are the two air masses that are very rare for
Canada? Correct Answer cP and cT.
Decode the following METAR: RMK SF5NS3 SLP134
Correct Answer Remarks:5 oktas Stratus fractus 3 oktas
Nimbostratus Sea level pressure: 1013.4 hPa
Decode the following METAR: RMK SN2SC6 SLP270
Correct Answer Remarks: 2 oktas Stratus Nimbus 6 oktas
stratus cumulus
Seal level pressure: 1027.0 hpa
How do you calculate the Freezing level within a cloud?
EG= Elevation 900 ft
Surface Temp = 24 c
Dew Point = 15 C Correct Answer 1. First get the Cloud
Base (Dew point Spread X 400)
1. Eg: 3,600 + 900 = 4500 ASL
2. Then get the "new dew point (DP- (.5x(cloud
base/1000)
2. Eg: 15- (.5x (3,600/1000)= 13.2
3. New DP/1.5 X1,000
13.2/1.5X1,000
,4. Add that to the Base plus Elevation = freezing level.
4 eg: 3,600 +8,800 =12,400 AGL + 900 = 13,300 ASL
In a METAR regarding RVR what do the following codes
means? D, U, N Correct Answer Downward Trend,
Upward Trend, No change.
In a METAR what minute average is taken for RVR?
Correct Answer 10 Minute Average
What is the following Barometric Pressure: SLP033
Correct Answer 1003.3 hPa
What is the following Barometric Pressure: SLP833
Correct Answer 983.3 hPA
What is the following Barometric Pressure: SLP751
Correct Answer 975.1 hPA
What is the following Barometric Pressure: SLP145
Correct Answer 1014.5
What is the True Airspeed Rule of Thumb under standard
conditions? Correct Answer Add an additional 2% of CAS
for every thousand Feet to get TAS
For route planning should you use KIAS or KTAS to
determine ground speed? Correct Answer KTAS
, What is the difference between the MEA and the MOCA
Correct Answer MEA is the Minimum En route altitude
which provides obstruction clearance as well as
navigational signal coverage. MOCA (minimum obstacle
clearance altitude) provides Obstacle clearance but only
provides navigational signal for only 22 NM from a VOR
What is the frequency range for VORs Correct Answer
108.0-117.95 MHz
What is the frequency range for voice transmissions within
the Airband? Correct Answer 118-136.975 MHz
What must a pilot do to stay current? Correct Answer 1.
Every 6 months: Complete 5 takeoffs and landings to carry
passengers. If flying at Night, the TO/Landings must be at
night as well.
2. Every 2 years: Complete (one of the following); Flight
Review, TC Aviation Seminar, TC approved recurrent
Training Program, Self paced study program, PPC.
3. Every 5 years: Fly as PIC or SIC at least once in a
Category of AC for which you're licensed.
Mult-engine PIC (PPC or PCC) Correct Answer PPC
Multi-engine SIC requiring a type rating (PPC or PCC)
Correct Answer PCC
Single-engine aeroplanes flown with passengers night
VFR or with passengers IFR (PPC or PCC) Correct
Answer PPC
