Question 1

An aircraft, following a 215° true track at variation 3°W, must fly over a 10 600 ft obstacle with a minimum obstacle clearance of 1 500 ft. Knowing the QNH received from an airport close by, which is almost at sea-level, is 1035 and the temperature is ISA -15°C, the minimum flight level will be:

Question 5

In an ATC flight plan, Item 15 (route), a cruising pressure altitude of 32000 feet would be entered as:

Accepted Answer

F320

Answer

S3200

Answer

FL320

Answer

32000

Question 6

In the cruise at FL 155 at 260 kt TAS, the pilot plans for a 500 feet/min descent in order to fly overhead MAN VOR at 2000 feet (QNH 1030). TAS will remain constant during descent, wind is negligible, temperature is standard. The pilot must start the descent at a distance from MAN of:

Accepted Answer

120 NM

Answer

110 NM

Answer

140 NM

Answer

130 NM

Question 7

On a given path, it is possible to choose between four flight levels (FL), each associated with a mandatory flight Mach Number (M). The flight conditions, static air temperature (SAT) and headwind component (HWC) are given below: FL 370 - M = 0.80 Ts = -60°C HWC = -15 kt. FL 330 - M = 0.78 Ts = -60°C HWC= - 5 kt. FL 290 - M = 0.80 Ts = -55°C HWC = -15 kt. FL 270 - M = 0.76 Ts = -43°C HWC = 0. The flight level allowing the highest ground speed is:

Accepted Answer

FL270

Answer

FL290

Answer

FL370

Answer

FL330

Answer

1:00 hour.

Answer

2 hours.

Answer

Answer

A flying college can file repetitive flight plan for VFR flights.

Answer

A flight plan should be filed when a national FIR boundary will be crossed.

Answer

Any flight plan should be filed at least 10 minutes before departure.
