IR Exam 101-120

[101] Which runway marking indicates a displaced threshold on an instrument runway?

• Centerline dashes starting at the threshold.

• Red chevron marks in the nonlanding portion of the runway.

• Arrows leading to the threshold mark.

[102] The "runway hold position" sign denotes

• an area protected for an aircraft approaching a runway.

• intersecting runways.

• an entrance to runway from a taxiway

[103] "Runway hold position" markings on the taxiway

• identifies where aircraft hold short of the runway.

• identifies area where aircraft are prohibited.

• allows an aircraft permission onto the runway.

[104] The "No Entry" sign identifies

• the exit boundary for the runway protected area.

• an area that does not continue beyond intersection.

• paved area where aircraft entry is prohibited.

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

• Continuation of course guidance after transition to VFR.

• Course guidance from the visual descent point to touchdown.

• Safe obstruction clearance in the approach area.

[106] If an approach is being made to a runway that has an operating 3-bar VASI and all the VASI lights appear red as the airplane reaches the MDA, the pilot should

• level off momentarily to intercept the proper approach path.

• continue at the same rate of descent if the runway is in sight.

• start a climb to reach the proper glidepath.

[107] The middle and far bars of a 3-bar VASI will

• constitute a 2-bar VASI for using the upper glidepath.

• both appear white to the pilot when on the upper glidepath.

• constitute a 2-bar VASI for using the lower glidepat

[108] Tricolor Visual Approach Indicators normally consist of

• three separate light projecting units of very high candle power with a daytime range of approximately 5 miles.

• three separate light units, each projecting a different color approach path.

• a single unit, projecting a three-color visual approach path.

[109] Which is a feature of the tricolor VASI?

• One light projector with three colors: red, green, and amber.

• Three glidepaths, with the center path indicated by a white light.

• Two visual glidepaths for the runway.

[110] What wind condition prolongs the hazards of wake turbulence on a landing runway for the longest period of time?

• Light quartering tailwind.

• Direct headwind.

• Direct tailwind.
