Q1. If an arriving aircraft is making a straight in approach a departing aircraft may take off in any direction:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • Until five minutes before the arriving aircraft is estimated to be over the instrument runway
  • Explanation:
  • Until five minutes before the arriving aircraft is estimated to be over the instrument runway

    • Q2. The EAT has to be transmitted to the pilot as soon as possible, in case the expected delay is:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • 5 minutes or more
  • Explanation:
  • In case of any expected delay of more than 5 mins or more a reviesed EAT needs to be transmitted to pilot. Expected Approach Time(EAT) The time at which ATC expects an arriving aircraft after a delay will leave the holding point for the commencement of its approach for landing. So in case of delay of 5 mins or more than previously assigned EAT a revised EAT needs to be given.

    • Q3. For controlled traffic that shall be separated in the vicinity of an airport, separation minima may be reduced:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • When the commander in the following aircraft has the preceding aircraft in sight and is able to maintain own separation
  • Explanation:
  • separation minima can be reduced when the preceeding aircraft is in sight of the other aircraft and is responsible to maintain separation from preceeding a/c but still maintaining safer distance on its own in the vicinity of aerodorme.

    • Q4. Which statement is correct? During a “visual approach” in controlled airspace (class C):

  • Correct Answer is:
  • ATC will apply separation with other traffic
  • Explanation:
  • During a visual approach in controlled airspace “Class C” to maintain the separation with other traffic is responsibility of ATC.

    • Q5. During an arrival procedure under an IFR flight plan in VMC conditions, traffic avoidance is the responsibility of:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • The pilot in command
  • Explanation:
  • In an IFR flight when flying in VMC conditions,traffic avoidance is the responsibility of PIC maintaining separation.

    • Q6. A so called “Visual Approach” can be performed:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • During IFR flights, if there is permanent sight on the movement area and the underlying ground
  • Explanation:
  • Visual Approach can be defined as during IFR flights when the PIC is in sight of surface and underlying ground and has good visibility and can land the aircraft visually.

    • Q7. At the commencement of final approach, if the controller possesses wind information in the form of components, significant changes in the mean surface wind direction and speed shall be transmitted to aircraft. The mean tail-wind component significant change is:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • 2 kt
  • Explanation:
  • At the commencement of final approach if controller posses wind information in the form of components the significant changes are MEAN HEAD WIND component : 10 kt,, MEAN TAIL WIND component : 2 kt,, MEAN CROSS WIND component: 5 kt

    • Q8. One minute separation may be used between departing aircraft if they are to fly on tracks divering by atleast:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • 45 degree immediately after take-off
  • Explanation:
  • One minute separation may be used between departing aircraft if they are flying on tracks when they are diverging by atleast 45 degree immediately after take off.

    • Q9. If the crew on an arriving aircraft approaching a controlled aerodrome will report “field in sight”, a clearance for “visual approach” may be given under certain conditions

  • Correct Answer is:
  • The air traffic controller will provide separation to other controlled traffic
  • Explanation:
  • In case of arriving aircraft when the crew reports “field in sight” then clearance for “visual approach” can be given when air traffic controller will provide the separation to other controlled traffic.

    • Q10. “Time Approach Procedure” is used as necessary to expedite the approach of a number of arriving aircraft. This will be obtained requesting aircraft:

  • Correct Answer is:
  • To pass the specified point inbound at the previously notified time
  • Explanation:
  • Time approach procedure is used to expedite the aproach when the number of arriving aircraft is large in this case all the aircraft needs to pass the specified reporting point on notified time by ATC so that congestion doesn’t arises.
