(178)
Term
What should you do if you receive an unclear or incomplete approach clearance.
Definition
Query the controller
(178)
Term
There are two broad categories of low altitude approaches:
Definition
course reversals and procedure tracks
(179)
Term
Unless ATC specifically clears you otherwise, you are expected to fly to the...
Definition
IAF and execute the full instrument approach procedure as published
(179)
Term
Some approaches depict only a final approach segment, starting at the FAF. In these cases, ____ is required to ensure you are properly aligned with the final approach course at the appropriate altitude
Definition
radar
(179)
Term
When ATC clears you for the approach, maintain the ______ altitude until established on a segment of the published IAP.
Definition
last assigned
(179)
Term
Prior to reaching the initial approach fix, the pilot must slow to _________. Use ________ if the first is not specified for your aircraft.
Definition
aircraft maneuvering speed; holding airspeed
(180)
Term
There are two common types of course reversals: the _______ and the _______
Definition
procedure turn (PT); holding pattern in lieu of procedure turn (HILO PT)
(180)
Term
Do not execute a procedure turn or HILO PT in the following situations:
Definition
S- Straight-in
N- NoPT
E- Establishing in holding, subsequently cleared the approach and the holding course is the same as the procedure turn course
R- Radar vectors
T- Timing approach
Term
True or false: In a situation where you do not execute a PT or HILO PT, proceed over the FAF at the published FAF altitude and continue inbound on the final approach course without making a procedure turn, holding pattern, or any other aligning maneuver before the FAF unless otherwise cleared by ATC.
Definition
True
(181)
Term
Procedure turns are depicted in the plan view of U.S. government charts with a ____ symbol
Definition
barb
(184)
Term
Procedure turns may be safely flown at speeds up to ___ KIAS provided the pilot takes into consideration all factors which may affect the aircraft‘s turn performance (e.g., winds, TAS at altitude, bank angle, etc.).
Definition
250
(185)
Term
The FAA recommends a maximum airspeed of ___ KIAS while performing procedure turn course reversals, and when possible, USAF aircraft should also observe this speed restriction.
Definition
200
(185)
Term
On a procedure turn, Tte remain within distance is measured from the _________ unless the IAP specifies otherwise.
Definition
procedure turn fix
(185)
Term
If you elect a teardrop entry to a procedure turn, your teardrop course must be within __ degrees of the procedure turn course
Definition
30
(186)
Term
Begin timing once you are _______ the procedure turn fix. If you cannot determine this position while in the turn, start timing after _______.
Definition
outbound abeam; completing the outbound turn
(186)
Term
If your heading is within __° of the outbound procedure turn course, you may use normal lead points to intercept the procedure turn course outbound
Definition
90
(186)
Term
Do not descend from the procedure turn fix altitude (published or assigned) until _____. If unable to determine this position, start descent after _______
Definition
abeam the procedure turn fix heading outbound; completing the outbound turn
(187)
Term
Do not descend from the procedure turn completion altitude until _______
Definition
established on the inbound segment of the approach
(187)
Term
Absence of a chart note or a specified minimum altitude adjacent to the PT fix is an indication that descent to the procedure turn altitude can commence immediately upon __________, regardless of the direction of flight
Definition
crossing over the PT fix
(187)
Term
True or false: for the 45/180 and 80/260 methods, intercept and maintain the procedure turn course outbound as soon as possible after passing the procedure turn fix
Definition
true
(188)
Term
for the 80/260 method, to begin the reversal maneuver, make an 80° turn away from the outbound track toward the maneuvering side followed by an immediate 260° turn in the _____ direction to intercept the inbound course
Definition
opposite
