Question 1 of 23

1. Question

If cleared for take-off immediately following the very low approach and overshoot of a large aircraft, the pilot should

decline take-off clearance and inform ATC of the reason for non acceptance.

take-off immediately otherwise the trailing vortices will descend into the flight path.

taxi to position on the runway and wait until it is considered safe to take-off.

wait for 2 minutes after the large aircraft has passed then take-off.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 2 of 23

2. Question

it is the pilot’s responsibility to ensure that the remaining runway length is sufficient for take-off.

the remaining runway length will not be stated by the controller.

the controller will ensure that the remaining runway length is sufficient for take-off.

noise abatement procedures have been cancelled.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 3 of 23

3. Question

A pilot requests an intersection take off from ATC. If authorized

it is the pilot’s responsibility to ensure that the remaining runway length is sufficient for take-off

the controller will always give the remaining runway length.

the controller will ensure that the remaining runway length is sufficient for take-off.

any noise abatement procedures for the runway are automatically cancelled.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 4 of 23

4. Question

When an arriving aircraft is cleared “to the circuit”, the pilot should interpret this to mean join the circuit

on the downwind leg at circuit height.

from the upwind side of the runway in all cases.

on base leg if convenient.

on final for a straight in approach.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 5 of 23

5. Question

When a NORDO aircraft crosses an airport for the purpose of obtaining landing information it should maintain

at least 500 feet above circuit height.

circuit height.

1,000 feet above circuit height.

at least 2,000 feet AGL.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 6 of 23

6. Question

An aircraft is “cleared to the circuit” where a left hand circuit is in effect. Without further approval from ATC a right turn may be made to

join cross wind or a partial right turn to join the downwind leg.

join the final leg.

join the base leg.

descend on the downwind leg.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 7 of 23

7. Question

When instructed to continue an approach to a runway which is clear of traffic, what action should the pilot take if no landing clearance is received?

Request landing clearance.

Complete the landing.

Circle 360° in the direction of the circuit.

Circle 360° to the left.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 8 of 23

8. Question

A NOTAM has been published for an airport, which is 400 feet ASL, stating the circuit height is 1,500 feet ASL. When the ceiling is 1,000 overcast and the visibility is 3 miles, the circuit height in controlled airspace should be

500 feet below the cloud base.

1,500 feet ASL.

1,100 feet above the airport elevation.

1,000 feet above the airport elevation.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 9 of 23

9. Question

When the reported ceiling is 1,000 feet overcast and visibility is 3 miles, to remain VFR, an aircraft cleared to the circuit must join

at 500 feet below cloud base.

as high as possible without entering cloud.

at 700 feet AGL.

in accordance with special VFR.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 10 of 23

10. Question

Aircraft flying VFR normally join the circuit at 1,000 feet AAE. This may not always be possible because of

the possibility of a "straight in" clearance to the airport in which case the final leg would normally be entered at less than 1,000 feet.

the existence of a NOTAM which provides for a different circuit altitude.

weather conditions which may necessitate a circuit height lower than 1,000 feet.

the existence of any of the circumstances listed.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 11 of 23

11. Question

A pilot on final approach is requested by ATC to reduce airspeed. The pilot should

comply, giving due consideration to safe minimum manoeuvring speed of the aircraft.

acknowledge transmission and execute a 360° turn.

overshoot and rejoin the circuit.

reduce airspeed well below normal approach speed range.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 12 of 23

12. Question

A pilot is cleared to land but is concerned about the high cross wind component. The pilot should

overshoot and request an into wind runway.

use full flaps and approach at a reduced speed.

alter heading and land on another runway which is more into wind.

continue the approach and land as the clearance must be obeyed.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 13 of 23

13. Question

A pilot on a VFR flight is being vectored by ATC towards an extensive unbroken layer of cloud. The responsibility for remaining VFR rests with

the pilot.

ATC since the cloud is visible on radar.

the radar operator.

ATC since the flight is designated VFR.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 14 of 23

14. Question

A student pilot on a VFR flight has been given a radar vector by ATC. Ahead, at a lower altitude, is a solid overcast cloud condition. The pilot should

alter heading as necessary to remain VFR and advise ATC.

climb above the cloud and fly “VFR over the top”.

maintain heading and altitude as it is an ATC clearance.

maintain heading and altitude because ATC knows of the cloud and will issue further instructions.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 15 of 23

15. Question

An aircraft operating under special VFR has been cleared for a “straight in” approach. Because of low ceiling and poor visibility, the pilot is concerned about the exact location of a radio mast in the vicinity. Avoiding this obstruction is the responsibility

of the pilot.

of the tower controller as the controller is aware of the obstruction.

of ATC as the pilot has been given special VFR clearance.

shared equally by the pilot and the controller.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 16 of 23

ATC because the weather is below VFR.

the pilot and ATC.

Correct

Incorrect
Question 17 of 23

17. Question
