Private Pilot Exam #3

(Refer to Figure 21.) What course should be selected on the omnibearing selector (OBS) to make a direct flight from Mercer County Regional Airport (area 3) to the Minot VORTAC (area 1) with a TO indication?

• 001

• 359

• 5

• 6

• 4

(Refer to Figure 25, area 5.) The VOR is tuned to the VOR-DME at the Dallas-Fort Worth airport. The omnibearing selector (OBS) is set on 253°, with a TO indication, and a right course deviation indicator (CDI) deflection. What is the aircraft's position from the VOR-DME?

• East-Northeast

• North-Northeast

• West-Southeast

(Refer to Figure 23.) What is the approximate position of the aircraft if the VOR receivers indicate the 320° radial of Savannah VORTAC (area 3) and the 184° radial of Allendale VOR (area 1)?

(Refer to Figure 28, illustration 7.) The VOR receiver has the indications shown. What is the aircraft's position relative to the station?

• East

• Southeast

• West

If receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM) capability is lost in flight,

• The Pilot may still rely on GPS derived altitude for vertical information

• The pilot has no assurance of the accuracy of the GPS position

• GPS position is reliable provided at least 3 GPS Satellites are available
