Dispatcher Distance Learning Course-Make Up Exam 1

Dispatcher Distance Learning Course-Make Up Exam #1

This is View Only - You must be an enrolled student with AGS to take this exam!!!

1. The airspace from the surface up to 4000' above airport elevation at an airport served by an operating control tower and radar approach facility is:
Class A.
Class B.
Class C.

2. ATC instructs an aircraft to execute a "missed approach".
The pilot must comply regardless of the pilots assessment of the situation.
The pilot should request an explanation before complying.
ATC does this whenever the landing speed appears to be too high.

3. An aircraft has made a missed approach. Which is true?
The controller will issue the clearance back into the arrival sequence on a priority basis.
The aircraft must go to the alternate airport listed in the flight plan.
It the pilot requests another approach, ATC will issue a clearance when traffic conditions permit.

4. The term "precision approach" means:
one that is flown very accurately.
an ILS only.
an instrument approach procedure which includes glideslope guidance.

5. 2 rectangle markings, consisting of a broad white stripe located either side of the runway centerline and approximately 1000' from the landing threshold:
are "Runway Aiming Point Markings" which serve as an aiming point for aircraft.
are "Runway Touchdown Zone Markers" and indicate intersection of the glideslope and runway.
are "Runway Threshold Markings". Landing aircraft must touch down prior to these markers to assure full stopping distance.

6. A straight-in landing is:
one flown without a procedure turn.
one where the runway is aligned within 30 degrees of the final approach course.
one flown without downwind and base legs.

7. Short field takeoffs with a jet transport require:
higher flap settings.
lower flap settings.
reduced power takeoffs.

8. Which of the following altitudes are appropriate for an eastbound IFR flight?
7000' MSL, 11,000' MSL, FL300.
5000' MSL, 17,000' MSL, FL250.
8000' MSL, 14,000' MSL, FL350.

9. Increasing air temperature will cause:
improved performance because of lower air density.
higher Speed of Sound and therefore lower critical Mach.
higher density altitude and therefore degraded performance.

10. The "no transgression zone" for monitored simultaneous ILS-PRM approaches:
can be no more than 1200' wide.
is at least 2000' wide. The radar monitor will terminate no more than 1 mile from the airport.
is marked by distinctive paint stripes on the taxiways.

11. An Airline Transport Pilot may instruct other pilots in air transportation service in aircraft of category, class and type for which he is rated, however:
he may not instruct for more than 8 hours in 1 day and 36 hours in 1 week.
he is also required to have a flight instructors rating.
no passengers may be carried while training.

12. Which is true regarding FAA Form 7233-1, Flight Plan?
"Special equipment" in block 3 would include skies or floats.
DVFR in block 1 means Day Visual Flight Rules.
DVFR in block 1 means the aircraft will penetrate the ADIZ.

13. Which is true about FAA Form 7233-1?
One must be completed for every IFR flight. They are optional for VFR flights.
Block 12 asks for fuel in pounds and gallons.
Block 15 includes passengers and crew.

14. A "cruise clearance" authorizes a pilot to:
maintain any desired airspeed.
maintain any altitude from the minimum IFR altitude up to that specified in the clearance.
maintain present altitude and airspeed.

15. A pilot advising ATC of minimum fuel is:
implying that an emergency is possible should any undue delay occur.
courting a violation.
requesting priority handling by ATC.

16. The EFAS frequency below 18,000' is:
122.0
243.0
whatever frequency you happen to be on at the time.

17. Factors affecting V1 speed are:
headwind and tailwind; runway slope; engine anti-ice ON.
anti-skid inop; contaminated runways.
both a and b.

18. An airplane is flying south to north. The pilot is holding 5 degrees of left drift correction. On the return flight, about 5 degrees of right drift will be needed (if the wind does not change).
True
False

19. Class I navigation is any flight within the operational service volume of VORs and NDBs.
True
False

20. The OAT is -40C at FL300. The TAS is 450kts. What is the Mach number?
.75M
.27M
.64M
