Question 2

Refer to Performance Manual MRJT1 Figure 4.5.4 (Descent) A descent is planned at.74/250KIAS from 35000 ft to 5000 ft. How much fuel will be consumed during this descent?

Accepted Answer

150 kg

Answer

140 kg

Answer

278 kg

Answer

290 kg

Question 3

Refer to Performance Manual MRJT1 Figure 4.7.2 (One Engine Inop): An aircraft on an extended range operation is required never to be more than 120 minutes from an alternate, based on 1 engine inoperative LRC conditions in ISA. Using the above table and a given mass of 40000 kg at the most critical point, the maximum air distance to the relevant alternate is:

Accepted Answer

735 NM

Answer

810 NM

Answer

794 NM

Answer

875 NM

Question 4

In a constant-condition flight-planning exercise, departure-to-destination distance is 338 NM, outbound true track is 045 degrees, wind is from 225 degrees true at 35 kt, and TAS is 120 kt in both directions. What are the distance from departure and outbound flight time to the point of equal time (PET), rounded to the nearest nautical mile and minute?

Accepted Answer

Distance: 120 NM Time: 46 min

Answer

Distance: 218 NM Time: 85 min

Answer

Distance: 169 NM Time: 85 min

Answer

Distance: 185 NM Time: 72 min

Question 5

During a VFR flight at a navigational checkpoint the remaining usable fuel in tanks is 60 US gallons. The reserve fuel is 12 US gallons. According to the flight plan the remaining flight time is 1h35min. Calculate the highest acceptable rate of consumption possible for the rest of the trip.

Accepted Answer

30.3 US gallons/hour

Answer

33.0 US gallons/hour

Answer

21.3 US gallons/hour

Answer

37.9 US gallons/hour

Question 6

In non-RVSM airspace, using the standard ICAO semicircular cruising-level table in feet with no regional or ATC variation, which listed level is appropriate for an IFR flight on a magnetic track of 200 degrees?

Accepted Answer

FL310

Answer

FL320

Answer

FL300

Answer

FL290

Question 7

In Item 10a of the current ICAO flight plan, what does the standard COM/NAV/approach equipment code S normally represent, unless the appropriate ATS authority prescribes another combination?

Accepted Answer

Serviceable VHF RTF, VOR and ILS

Answer

VHF RTF, ADF, VOR and transponder

Answer

VHF RTF, VOR, INS and transponder

Answer

VHF RTF, VOR, ILS and transponder

Question 8

In the ATC flight plan item 15, it is necessary to enter any point at which a change of cruising speed takes place. For this purpose a 'change of speed' is defined as:

Accepted Answer

5% TAS or 0.01 Mach or more

Answer

20 km per hour or 0.1 Mach or more

Answer

10 % TAS or 0.05 Mach or more

Answer

20 knots or 0.05 Mach or more

Question 9

Using the attached navigation log, an aircraft turns overhead BULEN to return to ARD via TGJ. TAS remains 170 kt and wind 270 degrees/40 kt. For each sector, assume the same fuel-flow rate as on the outbound sector in the log; the turn uses 20 litres. Which listed total fuel consumption at ARD is closest to the calculated estimate?

Accepted Answer

1 545 litres

Answer

1 182 litres

Answer

1 600 litres

Answer

1 326 litres

Question 10

The navigation plan reads: Trip fuel: 100 kg Flight time: 1h35min Taxi fuel: 3 kg Block fuel: 181 kg The endurance on the ICAO flight plan should read:

Accepted Answer

2h 49 min

Answer

2h 52 min

Answer

2h 04 min

Answer

1h 35 min
