AS350 - Exam #3 Questions With Correct
Answers
What |are |CDRs?
Conditional |Routes |are |used |as |connecting |routes |between |domestic |and |oceanic. |Some |are |
permanent, |others |are |not.
What |are |NARs?
North |American |Routes |are |used |another |type |of |connecting |routes |not |charted |but |published
|in |Canadian |AIP |and |U.S. |Northeast |AIP. |Links |NAMs |to |NAT |entry |points.
What |do |the |terms |"coast |out" |and |"coast |in" |refer |to?
Coast |out |refers |to |an |aircraft |going |from |domestic |to |international |(oceanic) |territory.
What |are |gross |error |checks |and |accuracy |checks?
- |Gross |error |checks |are |checks |made |on |LRN |that |are |performed |while |en-route |to |make |sure
|that |the |equipment |is |functioning |properly.
- |Accuracy |checks |are |made |before |hitting |the |coast-out |point |on |any |type |of |navigation |
equipment.
What |are |ETOPs?
, Extended |Twin |Engine |Operations |are |operation |60 |minutes |beyond |that |last |usable |airport |
over |a |large |expanse |of |water |or |desert. |ETOP |restrictions |can |vary |based |on |aircraft's |record |
for |reliability |and |safety. |For |example, |the |BOEING |777 |has |an |ETOPs |range |of |1320 |miles |for |3
|hours |flying |time.
Where |is |the |EEP |and |the |EXP |found?
EEP |is |found |60 |minutes |from |the |last |usable |airport.
EXP |is |found |60 |minutes |approaching |the |first |usable |airport.
What |does |ETP, |PNR, |and |RA |stand |for? |Also, |what |are |their |meanings?
- |Equal |Time |Point |refers |to |the |midway |point |of |the |flight, |same |distance |on |either |side.
- |Point |of |No |Return |refers |to |the |point |at |which |the |aircraft |must |continue |forward |because |
there |is |not |enough |fuel |to |reverse |course.
- |Radius |of |Action |refers |to |the |point |at |which |reversing |course |will |allow |for |landing |with |
planned |reserves.
How |do |you |calculate |ETP?
ETP |= |( |Distance |x |Groundspeed |return |) |/ |(Groundspeed |continue |+ |Groundspeed |return |)
How |do |you |calculate |PNR?
PNR |= |( |Groundspeed |continure |x |Groundspeed |return |) |/ |( |Groundspeed |continue |+ |
Groundpseed |return |) |x |Total |Fuel
