FAA KNOWLEDGE TEST EXAM WITH REAL VERIFIED QUESTIONS AND DETAILED ANSWERS || ALREADY GRADED A+ || LATEST VERSION 2025|| GUARANTEED PASS What are the operating rules and equipment requirements for Class A airspace? - ANSWER-An IFR clearance is required to enter and operate within Class A airspace. Pilots acting as PIC in Class A airspace must be instrument rated. Two way radio communication, appropriate navigational capability, a Mode C transponder with altitude reporting capability, and ADS-B out equipment that operates on the frequency of 1090 MHz are required. What are the basic VFR weather minimums for operating in Class A airspace? - ANSWER-There are no applicable VFR weather minimums for aircraft operating in Class A airspace, but filing an IFR flight plan is required prior to operation in Class A airspace. What are the bounds of Class B airspace? - ANSWER-Class B airspace is generally the airspace from the surface to 10,000 ft. MSL surrounding the nation's busiest airports. The configuration of class B airspace area is individually tailored and consists of a surface area and two or more layers. What are the operating rules and equipment requirements for Class B airspace? - ANSWER-An ATC clearance is required to operate in Class B airspace. Two way radio communication and ADS-B out equipment that operates on the frequency of 1090 MHz or operates using a universal access transceiver on the frequency of 978 are required. An ATC (4096 code or Mode S) transponder and automatic altitude reporting equipment (Mode C) are required within and above the lateral limits of Class B airspace and within 30 NM of the primary airport. The PIC must be at least a private pilot. What is required for IFR operations in Class B airspace? - ANSWER-An operable VOR, two way radio, and a Mode C transponder What is the maximum authorized indicated speed when operating an airplane in the airspace underlying Class B airspace? - ANSWER-200 kt. If the minimum safe airspeed for any particular operation is greater than the maximum airspeed prescribed in 14 CFR Part 91, the airplane may be operated at that speed. In such cases, pilots are expected to advise ATC of the airspeed that will be used. What is the Mode C Veil, and what is required to operate within it? - ANSWER-The airspace within 30 NM of a Class B primary airport from the surface up to 10,000 ft. MSL. Unless otherwise authorized by ATC, aircraft operating within this airspace must be equipped with a Mode C transponder. What are the basic VFR weather minimums for operating in Class B airspace? - ANSWER-3 miles visibility, clear of clouds What are the bounds of Class C airspace? - ANSWER-Class C airspace normally consists of a surface area with a 5-NM radius that extends from the surface to 4,000 ft. AGL, and a shelf area with a 10-NM radius that extends from 1,200 to 4,000 ft. AGL surrounding airports that have an operation control tower, are serviced by a radar approach control, and have a certain number of IFR operations or passenger enplanements. What are the operating rules and equipment requirements for Class C airspace? - ANSWER-Two way radio communications with ATC prior to entering and while operating in Class C airspace, clearance for IFR operations, a 4096 code transponder with Mode C capability, and ADS-B Out equipment. What is the maximum authorized indicated speed when operating an airplane at or below 2,500 ft. AGL within 4 NM of a Class C or Class D primary airport? - ANSWER-200 kt. What is the minimum altitude over congested areas? - ANSWER-An altitude of 1,000 ft. above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 ft. of the airplane.
