IFR Law Sample Paper 2

How is the term ‘ Instrument Flight Time’ defined;

• Time during which an aircraft is piloted solely by reference to instruments and without external reference

• Time during which an aircraft or an approved simulator is piloted solely by reference to instruments and without external reference

• Time during which an aircraft is piloted in Instrument Meteorological conditions

• Time during which an aircraft is piloted under Instrument Flight Rules

When does a SID terminate?

• At or above MSA

• Overhead the navigation aid

• Established on the cleared route

• At the altitude specified on the departure page for the aerodrome

Can you conduct a Visual Approach at night?

• No

• Yes, if you have visual reference

• Yes, if you have visual reference and runway lights in sight

• Yes, if you have visual reference and approach lights in sight.

What is the minimum climb gradient for a SID?

• 3.3%

• 5.75%

• 2.5%

• 9%

Do you have radar vectoring in Class C, D and G airspace.

• Yes, in C, D and G airspace

• Yes, in C and D airspace

• Not in C, D and yes in G airspace.

• No in all airspace.

Do you get information about significant weather changes from the radar controller:

• You cannot get information about significant weather changes at any time

• You can get information about significant weather changes at any time

• You can get information at any time provided you have an SSR transponder.

• You can get information at any time provided you have primary radar.

With regard to the calculation of MDA at remote aerodromes using Area QNH, if the published MDA at an aerodrome (elevation 100ft) is 650 feet and the aerodrome is 65nm from the aerodrome providing the Area QNH reports, what is the MDA at the remote aerodrome?

• 650ft

• 323ft

• 925ft

• 950ft

Define a Control Area(CTA)

• Generally from 9,500ft

• Controlled airspace which extends from the surface of the earth to a specified upper limit

• Uncontrolled airspace which extends from a specified lower limit to a specified upper limit

• Controlled airspace which extends from a specified lower limit to a specified upper limit.

What is an ATC Preferred Route?

• A route that only ATC could clear you on.

• A one way route. Marked on ERC charts with a ROL

• A two way route. Marked on ERC charts with a ROL

• A radar vector route only.
