1 hr after sunset: when landings count for currency
3 satellites - ANSWER-Latitude and longitude 2D
4 satellites - ANSWER-Latitude, longitude, and altitude 3D
5 satellites - ANSWER-3D and RAIM
6 satellites - ANSWER-3D and RAIM and isolates any corrupt signal
Airway route colors: black, brown, and blue - ANSWER-Black- VHF/UHF routes
Brown- LF/MF routes
Blue- RNAV
Safety pilot requirements - ANSWER-Possess current medical
Possess current pvt certificate with category/class
If flight is conducted on IFR flight plan, safety pilot must be instrument current
Required equipment (91.205) - ANSWER-TOMATOFLAMES AF (day)

, What should be included in each logbook entry for instrument time? - ANSWER-
Date,location,amount of time, type of approach, name of safety pilot if required
Information PIC should know before flight (WFKART) - ANSWER-Weather
Fuel requirements
Known ATC delays
Alternates
Runway lengths
Takeoff/landing distances
Fuel requirements - ANSWER-Enough to fly to destination shoot app, go missed, and
then fly to the alternate with 45 minutes remaining
When do you need an alternate? - ANSWER-1-2-3 rule: 1 hour before ceiling is
