This Exam contains:
-Guarantee passing score -100 Questions and Answers -format set of multiple-choice -Expert-Verified Explanation Question 1: DoD FLIPs: FIH Lost Comms
Answer:
Exercise good judgement and do not be reluctant to use emergency actions.
- Squawk 7600 and make calls in the blind
- ATC will attempt to communicate via guard or NAVAID frequencies
- Land as soon as practicable and notify ATC
If able to remain/regain VMC
If unable to remain/regain VMC, proceed as follows: (AVE-F-MEA)
- Route Assigned in last ATC clearance
- If being Radar Vectored, the DIRECT route from the point of radio failure to the fix, route, or airway
specified in the vector clearance
- If not assigned, the route ATC advised to be Expected in a further clearance
- If nothing else, the route Filed in the flight plan
- Minimum altitude for IFR operations (MEA)
- If not assigned, the altitude ATC advised to be Expected in a further clearance
- Altitude or flight level last Assigned
Question 2: CNAF M-3710.7
Instrument Rating and Qualification Issuing Authority
Answer:
The commanding officer or reporting senior, as appropriate, is the issuing authority for instrument ratings/qualifications to naval aviators and NFOs.
Question 3: CNAF M-3710.7
Flight Route Weather Briefing Form
(DD-175-1)
Answer:
DD-175-1 flight route weather briefings will include:
- Briefing (flimsy) number and
- Brief void time.
- 3.0 hours past briefing/FWB delivery time or
- ETD plus one-half hour.
DD-175-1 briefs are only valid for either
Briefings received more than 3.0 hours prior to takeoff will be void and require re-briefing prior to departure.Whenever possible, Naval aviators should request a DD-175-1 flight route weather briefing at least 1 hour prior to proposed brief time to allow sufficient time for brief preparation.
Question 4: CNAF M-3710.7
Blood Donation
Answer:
Hazards of hypoxia and reduced barometric pressure make it desirable to limit suck donations
- Minimum interval for donations shall be 4 months
- If in combat, shipboard, or flying missions, pilots shall not donate within 4 weeks prior
- Flight personnel shall not participate in flight duties for 4 days following a donation of 1pint
- If subject to flying duties within the 4 days of a blood donation, an aviator must obtain command
approval prior to donating.
Question 5: CNAF M-3710.7
Flights in Severe Weather Watch Bulletins
Answer:
Textual as well as graphical for areas where conditions are favorable for development of severe weather
- Severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings should be treated as WW
Except for Operational Necessity, Emergencies, and flights involving All-Weather Research Projects or Weather Reconnaissance, Pilots shall not file into or through areas... issued a WW unless one of the
following:
a. Storm has not progressed as forecasted:
- For operations in Naval installations... CO/WC may continue operations... storm development has not
progressed as forecast (if in commercial airfields or other DoD airfields the Naval aviator shall determine this) ... such determination should include verification by a DoD Forecaster or FSS. In either situation:
- VFR filing is permitted if existing and forecast weather for the planned route permits such flights.
- IFR flight may be permitted if aircraft radar is installed and operative, thus permitting detection and
avoidance of isolated thunderstorms.
- IFR flight is permissible in controlled airspace if VMC can be maintained, thus enabling aircraft to
detect and avoid isolated thunderstorms.
- Performance characteristics of the aircraft permit an enroute flight altitude above existing or
developing severe storms.Question 6: DoD FLIPs: GP ETE to Dest/Alt
Answer:
VFR:
Time from takeoff to a position over the destination airport
- Including known or preplanned enroute delays (Practice Airwork approaches, landings, etc
IFR:
Time from takeoff or departure from a Terminal or SUA enroute delay location to the last fix shown in the ROUTE OF FLIGHT exclusive of planned enroute delays
ALT ETE:
Enter the time required to fly from original destination to the alternate airport, based on flight at the last cruising altitude (MAP ALT IAF Alt Approach)
Question 7: DoD FLIPs: Approach Plate Standard Instrument Departure (SIDs)
Answer:
- ATC procedures printed for pilot/controller use in graphic form
- Provides obstruction clearance and a transition from the terminal area to the appropriate en-route
point and to reduce pilot/controller workload
- ATC clearance must be received
Question 8: FAR/AIM
Maximum Elevation Figure (MEF)
Answer:
VFR Sectional altitude (depicted in blue) that indicates the height of the highest feature within a quadrangle area Unlike the MSA the MEF does not include any margin for aircraft obstacle clearance.
Determined by:
- Taking the point of highest elevation within a quadrangle
- Adding 100' for vertical error
- Adding the height of the highest obstacle in the quadrangle or 200' (whichever is greater)
- Rounding up to the next 100'
Question 9: DoD FLIPs: FIH Inflight Weather Advisories (1)
Answer:
NWS issues inflight weather advisories to alert pilots of possible hazardous flying conditions. They are
designated as:
- Severe Weather Forecasts Alerts (AWWs)
- Preliminary messages issued IOT alert of a Severe Weather Bulletin (WW) is being issued
(Thunderstorms or Tornadoes)
- Issued as needed until it is no longer severe
- Convective SIGMETs (WSTs)
