Term
In the T-6, operation at or below ____ feet AGL is considered low-level navigation
Definition
3000'
Term
The goal of low-level navigation is to:
Definition
fly a selected ground track and arrive at a designated time over target
Term
Normally, plan to use ___ knots ground speed
Definition
210 knots
Term
Planned airspeed below ___ KIAS is not recommended due to decreased maneuverability
Definition
160 KIAS
Term
Use the forecast ____, ____, and ____ to compute indicated airspeeds
Definition
temperature, pressure alt, winds
Term
Use a _____-scale map to fly low-level MTRs or VFR legs below 5,000 feet AGL
Definition
1:500,000 (TPC or sectional chart)
Term
T/F: Each pilot in the aircraft should have an identical chart
Definition
TRUE
Term
Choose an initial point about ____ minutes from the target
Definition
1-3 minutes
Term
Choose the ____ first, then the ____ turn points, and entry point.
Definition
target, then initial point
Term
Begin timing measurement at the:
Definition
route start point
Term
Chart should be marked with:
Definition
-MTR corridor from entry to the planned exit point
-Route lines and circles around turn points
-Timing lines along the planned ground track. Marks at a 1- or 2-minute intervals are sufficient
-Information boxes aligned with each leg that include heading, leg time, and any other relevant information
-Highlighted obstacles or high terrain along the route
-Fuel calculations
-Continuation fuel
-Bingo fuel from the most distant point on the route to the recovery airfield
-Compute an emergency route abort altitude (ERAA) for the planned portion of the low-level route
-Circles around emergency and alternate airfield locations
-Route and timing to and from the low-level route
Term
The entry point may be ____, a _____, or a _____
Definition
visual, GPS waypoint, VOR radial or DME
Term
Before the entry point, accomplish a ______ and compare the EHSI heading with the magnetic compass to verify accuracy
Definition
descent check
Term
Maneuver to hit the entry point on:
Definition
the correct first leg heading
Term
Use "________" to initiate timing
Definition
"ready, ready, hack"
Term
Mission elements, listed in priority order
Definition
-Safety
-Systems
-Navigation
-Mission
-Priority
-Fly Accurately
-Trim the AC
-Clock - Map - Ground
-Identify
Term
While turns only make up __ percent of flying in the low-level environment, they make up about __ percent of the accidents
Definition
10%, 50%
Term
The neutral position during low level where 80 percent of time should be spent is:
Definition
heads up and eyes out
Term
During turns:
Definition
fly the aircraft and clear; do nothing else.
Term
Start trying to identify turn points about ____ minutes out (approximately ____ miles at ___ knots GS).
Definition
1 - 1.5 minutes
3.5 - 5 miles
210 knots
Term
If the point is not identified:
Definition
turn on time
Term
At 210 knots GS, a heading change of ___ degrees held for 1-minute causes a ___-mile course shift
Definition
17*
1 mile
Term
For every second early or late, increase or decrease indicated airspeed by ___ knot, and hold that change for the number of minutes equal to the NMs per minute you are flying.
Definition
1 knot
Term
SHAFT: to update required items before or after turn points
Definition
S - Speed for new leg.
H - Heading for new leg.
A - Altitude for new leg.
F - Fuel at turn point. Compare to plan.
T - Timing at turn point. Compare to plan, determine correction.
Term
6 T's: to update required items before or after turn points
Definition
6 Ts:
T - Time ahead or behind.
T - Turn to specific heading for new leg.
T - Throttle set to hold desired airspeed, check fuel, and fuel flow.
T - Twist heading bug or course arrow to proper heading.
T - Track course centerline at desired altitude.
T - Talk if at a required reporting point.
Term
The first reaction to any emergency encountered at low level is to:
Definition
abort the route and climb as high as necessary (at least to the ERAA) to safely analyze the situation.
Term
If the engine fails on a low-level MTR, recovery is unlikely unless a suitable landing field is within approximately ___ miles
Definition
3 miles
Term
A zoom from 210 knots GS gains approximately ____ feet
Definition
1000'
Term
Consider a restart in the zoom. If there are no indications of a start (N1 rise) by the apex of the zoom, eject. Do not delay ejection to attempt air starts below ____ AGL or if no airfields are within engine-out range.
Definition
2000'
Term
T/F: After aborting the route it is acceptable to reenter
Definition
FALSE
Term
T/F: An abort into IMC is an emergency
Definition
TRUE
Term
Aborting into IMC you should:
Definition
Execute an immediate climb to the emergency route abort altitude (minimum) and squawk 7700. Attempt contact with the appropriate ATC agency. Fly the proper VFR altitude until an IFR clearance is received
