Correct Solutions
Logging Instrument Time - ANSWER-a. 61.51 g(1)- A person may log instrument time
only for that flight time when the person operates the aircraft solely by reference to
instruments under actual or simulated flight conditions. An authorized instructor may log
instrument time when conducting instrument flight instruction in actual instrument
conditions.
b. 61.51 g(3i-ii)(4)- Location and type of each approach, safety pilot in required. Flight
simulator may be used.

130NM; 45000'-60000' 100NM radius
Mode C transponder Requirements 91.215 - ANSWER-- Class A,B, and C airspace
- Within 30NM of Class B
- Above the ceiling within the lateral boundaries of class B or class C up to 10,000' MSL
- All airspace at and above 10,000' MSL excluding that airspace below 2,500' AGL
DECIDE model - ANSWER-D- Detect

IFR altitudes - ANSWER-MEA- Minimum En-route Altitude is the lowest published
altitude between radio fixes that guarantees adequate navigational signal reception and
obstruction clearance of 1000' non mtn and 2000' in mtns
MOCA- Minimum Obstruction Clearance Altitude Ensures reliable navigation only within
22 NM of facility and obstacle clearance
MAA- Maximum Authorized Altitude. Max usable altitude of lift level for an airspace
structure or route for which adequate navigation signals are assured
MRA- Minimum Reception Altitude. Lowest altitude at which an intersection can be
determined
