• What is the minimum distance between parallel runways? -✓✓915m
• what the key points of using Mode 2 for parallel runways? -✓✓Only
straight in approaches allowed
interception angle of no more that 30 degrees
must be straight and level 1NM for localiser
must be straight and level 2NM for Glideslope
Minimum separation of 3NM on same Loc
Min separation of 2 NM on adjacent Loc
Missed approach tracks diverge by at least 30 degree
• what is the minimum time a flight plan must be filed before departure
-✓✓60 minutes
• how does a pilot create a slip or a skid and how it is indicated on the
turn co-ordinator? -✓✓Slip - opposite rudder to direction of turn = ball
will be at the same side of the turn
Skid - too much rudder in the direction of the turn = ball will be on the
opposite side to the turn
• what time must ATC clocks be within? -✓✓30 seconds
• what are the Airspace separations rules for Class A -✓✓IFR Only
• What are the Airspace separation rules for Class B -✓✓IFR and VFR
seperated
,• What are the Airspace separation rules for Class C -✓✓IFR separated
from IFR
IFR Separated from VFR
VFR Info about VFR
Speed limited below FL100 250kts
IFR ( speed limit only on ATC instruction)
• What are the Airspace separation rules for Class D -✓✓IFR Separated
from VFR
IFR Info about VFR
VFR Info about VFR
Speed limit below FL100 250kts
• what its the difference between class D and Class E airspace for VFR -
✓✓No ATC required
No SVFR
• What is Load Shedding -✓✓Reducing electrical load on the system by
turning of unnecessary electrical components
• how would an artificial feel unit be connected? -✓✓In Parallel
otherwise if it failed it would stop the system
• what are booster pumps -✓✓low pressure centrifugal boots that supply
fuel to the engines.
• why are booster pumps important? -✓✓they prevent cavitation of the
engine driven pumps at high altitude.
• what is the purpose of baffle valves -✓✓to prevent fuel flowing the
the wing tips to keep it in the centre near the pumps
,• what is a feeder box -✓✓a box arounds the booster pumps that keeps
the pumps submerged in fuel to prevent cavitation
• how do you switch off the magneto -✓✓ground the primary circuit
• how is the twin jet fuelled -✓✓by fuel being pumped from the fuel
truck
• what type of fire extinguisher do you use on propane fire -✓✓foam
• what is the difference between IAS and CAS (calibrated Airspeed) -
✓✓corrected for instrument positional errors
• what is the difference between CAS and TAS (true Airspeed) -
✓✓Corrected for changes in air Density
• when is ground effect felt? -✓✓half the wingspan from the ground
• what is interference drag? -✓✓Drag caused by interaction of boundary
layers at major aircraft components
• what are high aspect ratio wings -✓✓long thin wings
• what are low aspect ratio wings -✓✓short fat ones
• why are all jet liners wings swept -✓✓they are better at close to mach
• where does the Pulmonary artery pump blood to? -✓✓the lungs
• what is reduced when someone hyper ventilates -✓✓CO2
• how long such you void flying for after giving blood? -✓✓24 hrs
, • what percentages of accidents are caused by human error -✓✓70%
• What is the tropopause? -✓✓The boundary between the troposphere
and the stratosphere.
Where temp no longer increases with height
• what does the air need to be at the summit of a mountain to cause
mountain waves? -✓✓stable
• what does they wind need to be doing with increasing altitude to cause
mountain waves? -✓✓increasing
• why won't cirrus clouds cause icing -✓✓they are already ice crystals
• what side of the polar jet stream in the most turbulence on? -✓✓the
cold side
• what is Grivation -✓✓the combination of Grid convergence and
magnetic variation
• what is ISA? -✓✓Temp 15
Pressure 1013.35
Density 1225
- 2 c per 1000ft
27ft per 1 Hpa
• What is pressure Altitude? -✓✓the vertical distance from ISO
• how many nautical miles is one degree of latitude? -✓✓60NM
• where is the magnetic pole? -✓✓North Canada
• what cool would the magnetic pole be? -✓✓blue
