AAAAI ACAAI ONLINE FINAL SCRIPT PAPER
2026 VERIFIED SOLUTIONS FULL CONTENT
◉ Local Airport Advisory
Answer: operated within 10sm or airport with FSS but no operating
control tower.
◉ Military Training Routes
Answer: Developed to allow the military to conduct low-alt, high-
speed training.
◉ Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR)
Answer: Established to protect the President or other VIPs, provide
a safe environment for disaster relief, or to prevent aircraft from
sight-seeing over public events.
◉ Parachute Jump Zones
Answer: check A/FD for details
◉ Published VFR Routes (Other Airspace Area)
Answer: - Published on TACs to provide VFR aircraft with a means to
transition around, under, or through complex airspace. For example,
,Coastal Route, Mini Route, Special Flight Rule, Hollywood Park Route
or Coliseum Route
◉ Terminal Radar Service Areas (special use)
Answer: Pilots can voluntarily receive radar services from TRACON
so that IFR and VFR traffic can have separation. Participation is
encouraged. It can be identified on the chart by a heavy grey line
(see Palm Springs)
◉ National Security Areas
Answer: They exist where there is a need for heightened security
and safety of ground facilities. Sometimes flight in this area is
prohibited but otherwise pilots are encouraged to stay away from
these areas.
◉ When do we need a Mode C transponder? (91.215)
Answer: Class A, B, C airspace. Inside of the mode C veil, above class
C airspace, and above 10000'
◉ What are the standard temperature and pressure values for sea
level? (pg. 13)
Answer: 15C or 59F - 29.92" Hg or 1013.2 m
, ◉ Discuss isobars. What does it mean when the isobars are close
together? (Pg.15 and 24)
Answer: Isobars connect equal lines of pressure. Closely spaced
isobars means that there is a strong pressure gradient and winds
will be strong.
◉ How do surface winds flow in relationship to isobars? Why?
Winds aloft? (pg.25)
Answer: At the surface winds flow at an angle to the isobars because
of surface friction.
Aloft, winds from more or less parallel because of the Coriolis force.
◉ What type of clouds, visibility and precipitation would you expect
from stable air? Unstable air? (Chapter 6)
Answer: Stable air: stratiform clouds, poor visibility, smooth air,
steady or continuous precipitation.
Unstable: Cumuliform clouds or clouds with vertical development,
good visibility, turbulence, and showery precipitation
◉ What are the general characteristics of low/high pressure areas?
(pg.35)
Answer: Low - Cyclone - counterclockwise and rising air
High - Anti Cyclone - clockwise and descending air
