Information on Search and Rescue (SAR) procedures may be obtained:

• From NOTAMS

• in the national AIP

• in the latest AIC

• by RT communication with the local FIR controller

The air distance and time to climb is 197 NAM and 33 min respectively. What is the

required ground distance with a 40 kt headwind component?

• 222 NGM

• 184 NGM

• 157 NGM

• 175 NGM

At a fuel Relative Density of 0.80 an aircraft turbine engine burns 220 litres per

hour. If Relative Density is 0.75 what is the fuel burn?

• 235 L/hr

• 206 L/hr

• 220 L/hr

• 176 L/hr

In an ATS flight plan, item 15 (route), a cruising pressure altitude of 32 000 feet would be entered as:

• F320

• 32000

• FL320

• F032

Given:

Distance from A to B:2 050 NMMean groundspeed on:440 ktsMean groundspeed back:540 kts

The distance to the point of equal time (PET) between A and B is:

• 1025 NM

• 1153 NM

• 1130 NM

• 920 NM

Given:

Distance from departure to destination:1 345 NMGS Out:480 ktsGS Home:360 kts

What is the time of the PET from the departure point?

• 72 min

• 96 min

• 50 min

• 128 min

When calculating the fuel required to carry out a given flight, one must take into account:

1. The wind

2. Foreseeable airborne delays

3. Other weather forecasts

4. Any foreseeable conditions which may delay landing

The combination that provides the correct answer is:

• 1,2,3,4

• 1,2,3

• 2,4

• 1,3

(Refer to the image or Flight planning Manual SEP 1 Figure 2.4)

Using the Range Profile Diagram, for the single engine aeroplane, determine the range, with 45 minutes reserve, in the following conditions: Given: O.A.T: ISA -15°C; Pressure altitude: 12000 ft; Power: Full throttle / 23,0 in/Hg./ 2300 RPM

• 902 NM

• 875 NM

• 908 NM

• 860 NM

Given:

Dry Operating Mass = 33000 kg

Traffic Load= 8110 kg

Final Reserve Fuel= 983 kg

Alternate Fuel= 1100 kg

Contingency Fuel 102 kg

The estimated landing mass at alternate should be:

• 42210 kg

• 42195 kg

• 41110 kg

• 42312 kg

Given: Distance from departure to destination: 240 NM Safe Endurance: 3,5 h TAS: 125 kt Ground Speed Out: 110 kt Ground Speed Home: 140 kt What is the distance and time of the PSR from the departure point?

• Distance: 134 NM Time: 58 min

• Distance: 216 NM Time: 118 min

• Distance: 108 NM Time: 52 min

• Distance: 24 NM Time: 13 min
