ODP is an obstacle departure and are always textual and sometimes graphical. You do not need ATC clearance to fly one.
Back
What is the difference between blue and green airports on ifr low enroute charts?
Front
Blue have high instrument approaches and green have low instrument approaches.
Back
What are the fuel requirements for instrument flight?
Front
You must fly to destination, then to the alternate with 45min extra fuel.
Back
What are the steps to file, open and close an ifr flight plan?
Front
To file it you can submit it with a FSS, to open it you can get it with clearance delivery or with a FSS in the air, then you can close it with ATC or you can call a FSS
Back
What conditions are required for icing?
Front
Freezing temperature and moisture
Back
How much aircraft icing does it take to change flight characteristics?
Front
Very little
Back
What is the difference between an ODP and SID?
Front
ODP has and obstacle and you do not need a clearance to fly it.
Back
What are ifr takeoff minimums?
Front
Part 91- N/A
Part 121/135- <=2 engines 1sm/ > 2 engines 1/2sm
Back
What are three commonly encountered types of aircraft icing?
Front
Structural, induction, instrument
Back
What is the difference between flight visibility and reported visibility?
Front
Flight visibility is what you see in the aircraft and reported visibility is what is seen on the ground.
Back
Which performance charts are used for flight planning and where are they found?
Front
You use the takeoff and landing distance charts, airspeed calibration, time fuel and distance, and the cruise performance chart. They are found in the POH
Back
How do you choose an alternate?
Front
It must have an instrument approach that is approved and different than the one you planned for.
Back
What is a DVA?
Front
DVA is a diverse vectoring area, it is used at larger airports so when you are vectored you will have obstacle clearance.
Back
KIAS and KTAS- define them, how they are used and how to convert
Front
indicated is what the airplane shows and true is how fast the plane is really going. They are used for ifr flight plans and nav logs. To convert you turn the indicated to calibrated and then calibrated to true using the airspeed calibration chart and E6B
Back
What are preferred routes?
Front
Routes that help ATC with traffic and make their jobs easier.
Back
Where can ODPs and SIDs be found?
Front
In the TPP
Back
Why should we have personal minimums?
Front
So you do not fly the plane when you really are not in the right state or mind and so you can fly the plane safely and not take risks.
Back
What are nonstandard takeoff minimums?
Front
They are minimums shown by the black T on plates and are found in the TPP
Back
How do we know if we have induction icing?
Front
Loss of rpm, engine roughness
Back
How do you pickup and ifr clearance from a non-towered airport?
Front
Call the FSS
Back
What are the standard and non standard alternate minimums?
Front
Standard for a precision approach is 600ft with 2sm vis, non precision is 800ft with 2sm visibility. Nonstandard minimums are found in the TPP
Back
How do you determine the route and altitude for a cross country flight?
Front
Fly on victor airways following GPS waypoints or VORs for the route and fly the MEA for the altitude.
