Airports, Air Traffic Control, Airspace Quiz

Which procedure should you follow to avoid wake turbulence if a large jet crosses your course from left to right approximately 1 mile ahead and at your altitude?

• Make sure you are slightly below the path of the jet and perpendicular to the course.
• Slow your airspeed to VA and maintain altitude and course.
• Make sure you are slightly above the path of the jet.

Which is true with respect to vortex circulation in the wake turbulence generated by an aircraft?

• When vortex circulation sinks into ground effect, it tends to dissipate rapidly and offer little danger.
• Helicopters generate downwash turbulence only, not vortex circulation.
• The vortex strength is greatest when the generating aircraft is heavy, clean, and slow.

Which flight conditions of a large jet airplane create the most severe flight hazard by generating wingtip vortices of the greatest strength?

• 
  Heavy and Slow with Gear and Flaps UP
• Heavy and Slow with Gear and Flaps DOWN
• Heavy and Fast with Gear and Flaps DOWN

When an ATC clearance has been obtained, no pilot in command may deviate from that clearance, unless that pilot obtains an amended clearance. The one exception to this regulation is

• an emergency.
• if the clearance contains a restriction
• when the clearance states "at pilot's discretion."

When should pilots state their position on the airport when calling the tower for takeoff?

• When parallel runways are in use
• When visibility is less than 1 mile.
• When departing from a runway intersection.

Which approach and landing objective is assured when the pilot remains on the proper glidepath of the VASI?

• Runway identification and course guidance.
• Safe obstruction clearance in the approach area.
• Lateral course guidance to the runway.

When flying HAWK N666CB, the proper phraseology for initial contact with McAlester AFSS is

• "MC ALESTER FLIGHT SERVICE STATION, HAWK NOVEMBER SIX CHARLIE BRAVO, RECEIVING ARDMORE VORTAC, OVER."
• "MC ALESTER STATION, HAWK SIX SIX SIX CEE BEE, RECEIVING ARDMORE VORTAC, OVER."
• "MC ALESTER RADIO, HAWK SIX SIX SIX CHARLIE BRAVO, RECEIVING ARDMORE VORTAC, OVER."

The correct method of stating 10,500 feet MSL to ATC is

• 
  "ONE ZERO THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED.
• 
  "TEN POINT FIVE."
• "TEN THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED FEET."

During a night flight, you observe a steady white light and a flashing red light ahead and at the same altitude. What is the general direction of movement of the other aircraft?

• The other aircraft is crossing to the right.
• The other aircraft is flying away from you.
• The other aircraft is crossing to the left.

During a night flight, you observe steady red and green lights ahead and at the same altitude. What is the general direction of movement of the other aircraft?

• The other aircraft is flying away from you.
• The other aircraft is approaching head-on.
• The other aircraft is crossing to the left.
