IFR Quiz #6

There are at least 2 ways to practice this quiz. One way is to check your answer by clicking the "Check answer" button. This will give you immediate feedback regarding specific questions. The other option is to simply answer all the questions as a test and "Flip the switch" or "Press the button" (grade the test) after the last question to receive a test score. You can then check each question individually to see which questions were missed. If you have any problems or suspect an error, feel free to contact me anytime.

Thank you and good luck.

Radar and RVR.
RCLS and REIL.
HIRL, TDZL, RCLS, and RVR.


2. In addition to the localizer, glide slope, marker beacons, approach lighting, and HIRL, which ground components are required to be operative for a Category II instrument approach to a DH below 150 feet AGL?

RCLS and REIL.
Radar and RVR.
TDZL, RCLS, and RVR.



3. What is the maximum holding speed for a civil turbojet holding at a civil airport at 15,000 ft. MSL, unless a higher speed is required due to turbulence or icing and ATC is notified?
265 knots.
230 knots.
250 knots.


4. Civil aircraft holding at a military or joint civil/ military use airports should expect to operate at which holding pattern airspeed?

250 knots.
260 knots.
230 knots.


5. If Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) is not available when setting up for GPS approach, the pilot should

continue to the MAP and hold until the satellites are recaptured.
proceed as cleared to the IAF and hold until satellite reception is satisfactory.
select another type of approach using another type of navigation aid.


6. Without Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) capability, the accuracy of the GPS derived

altitude information should not be relied upon to determine aircraft altitude.
position is not affected.
velocity information should be relied upon to determine aircraft groundspeed.

7. Overriding an automatically selected sensitivity during a GPS approach will

cancel the approach mode annunciation.
require flying point-to-point on the approach to comply with the published approach procedure.
have no effect if the approach is flown manually.


8. If a visual descent point (VDP) is published on a GPS approach, it

will not be included in the sequence of waypoints.
will be coded in the waypoint sequence and identified using ATD.
must be included in the normal waypoints.



9. When cleared to execute a published sidestep maneuver for a specific approach and landing on the parallel runway, at what point is the pilot expected to commence this maneuver?
At the published minimum altitude for a circling approach.
As soon as possible after the runway or runway environment is in sight.
At the localizer MDA minimums and when the runway is in sight.

10. (Refer to figures 111 and 112.) In addition to VOR and DME, what other avionics equipment is required to be operational, at takeoff, to fly the VOR/DME RWY 32R approach at IAH?
Altitude alerting system.
Standby VOR and DME receivers.
VHF communications and transponder equipment.


11. (Refer to figure 112.) While arcing left on the IAH 10 DME Arc, the pilot experiences a left cross- wind component. Where should the bearing pointer be referenced relative to the 900 (wingtip) position to maintain the 10 DME range?
On the left wingtip reference.
Behind the left wingtip reference.
Ahead of the left wingtip reference.


12. (Refer to figures 111 and 112.) Which approach lighting is available for Rwy 32R?

MALSR with RAIL.
HIRL.
TDZ and CL.



13. (Refer to figure 112.) At what point must the missed approach be initiated on the VOR/DME RWY 32R approach at IAH, if still IMC?
Anytime after the FAF.
IAH 1.3 DME.
IAH 1 DME.


14. [Refer to figures 163 (not required), 163A, and 164 (not required).] When does RYAN NDB (338 RYN), which is located west of TUS, broadcast the Transcribed Weather Broadcast (TWEB), on frequency 338?

At 15 and 45 minutes past the hour.
From 1200-0500Z, when on Daylight Savings Time.
TWEB available 0500-2200 local time.



15. (Refer to figure 175.) Four airways (V298, V25, V448, and V204) near YKM have a series of dots that overlay the airway. What do these dots indicate?
That the airways penetrate a Prohibited and Restricted Airspace.
That 2 miles either side of the airway, where shaded, is a Controlled Firing Area.
That the airways penetrate a Military Operations Area (MOA) and a special clearance must be received from ATC.

16. (Refer to figure 175.) The NAVAID boxes at Nez Perce, Walla Walla, Pasco, and Pullman all have a black dot with a white T within the dot. What does this indicate?

That the frequency of the NAVAID is protected to 12,000 feet and 25 NM.
That the National Observatory transmits a time signal on the VOR frequency.
That the facility has a Transcribed Weather Broadcast (TWEB) service on the frequency.

17. (Refer to figure 177 below and legend 15.) Lewiston-Nez Perce Co. is a FAR Part 139 airport.

What is the minimum number of aircraft rescue and fire fighting vehicles, and the type and amount of fire fighting agents that the airport should have?

Two vehicles and 600 pounds dry chemical (DC) or Halon 1211 or 500 pounds of DC plus 100 gallons of water.
One vehicle and 500 pounds of dry chemical (DC) or Halon 1211 or 450 pounds DC plus 100 gallons of water.
