147 - ATPL Question Bank in English - With a light crosswind after a heavy aeroplane has landed, which statement correctly describes a wake-vortex hazard near the runway?

Question 147 - Operational Procedures - ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot Licence

Both vortices immediately disappear when the heavy aeroplane touches down.

The upwind vortex can remain near the approach or runway, while the downwind vortex drifts with the crosswind.

A light crosswind always moves both vortices clear before the next aeroplane approaches.

Use of high-lift devices prevents any wake vortices from forming.
