COMPONENTS OF AN AIRPORT

What is a landing strip?

• A rectangular area prepared for parking helicopters

• An area used by airplanes in case of takeoff rejection

• A rectangular area prepared at an airport for the landing and takeoff of flights

• An area equipped with advanced technology to prevent fires

What is the deicing area at an airport?

• The area where planes park during passenger boarding and deplaning

• The area where planes use a special fluid to de-ice the aircraft

• The area preceding the displaced threshold of the runway

• The lighting system that guides the pilot to maintain the correct altitude when approaching the runway

What does the touchdown zone (TDZ) indicate on a runway?

• It is the first anticipated contact of an aircraft with the runway

• It is the area used by aircraft in case of rejected takeoff

• It is the last anticipated contact of an helicopter with the runway

• It is the area where aircraft repairs and maintenance are carried out

What is the aiming point on a runway?

• Indicates the lenght and width of the runway path available for landing and takeoff

• The marker representing the number used for takeoff or landing

• the part that Indicates the beginning and end of the runway path available for landing and takeoff

• The area used by aircraft when there is a rejected takeoff

What does the threshold of the landing strip indicate?

• Indicates the beginning and end of the runway path available for landing and takeoff

• It is the area used by aircraft when there is a rejected takeoff

• Indicates the holding and runway path available for landing and takeoff

• It is the area where aircraft use a special fluid to de-ice the aircraft from ice and snow

What is a holding position at an airport?

• The area used by aircraft in case of cleared takeoff

• The area used by aircraft in case of rejected takeoff

• The area where aircraft uses for loading and unloading goods

• The area where aircraft use a special fluid to de-ice the aircraft from ice and snow

What is a high-speed taxiway at an airport?

• It is a long paved radius to indicate to the aircraft to move at high speed from the runway to the center of the taxiway

• An area used by aircraft in case of rejected takeoff

• The parking area for helicopters

• The area where helicopters land

What is a fire station at an airport?

• A car equipped with advanced technology to prevent fire accidents as soon as possible

• A team of people equipped with advanced technology for communications to prevent accidents during flight operations

• A station equipped with advanced technology to repair an aircraft as soon as possible

• A station equipped with advanced technology to prevent fire accidents as soon as possible

What is a platform at an airport?

• An area used by aircraft in case of rejected takeoff

• An area for aircraft parking during parking, loading, and unloading of goods

• An area used by aircraft in case of a programmed maintainance

• An area used by aircraft in case of being deiced

What is an airport control tower?

• The area where helicopters land

• An area for observing and ensuring controlled entry of aircraft and takeoffs

• An area used by airplanes in case of takeoff rejection

• The parking area for helicopters
