- A.
Even thousand foot altitude
- B.
Odd thousand plus 500 feet
- C.
Odd thousand feet
- D.
Even thousand plus 500 feet
Correct Answer
D. Even thousand plus 500 feetExplanation
When cruising VFR flight above 3,000 feet AGL in class "E" airspace, the aircraft is required to operate at an even thousand foot altitude. In this case, the correct answer is "even thousand plus 500 feet," which means the aircraft should maintain an altitude that is an even thousand feet (such as 4,000, 6,000, etc.) and add 500 feet to that altitude (such as 4,500, 6,500, etc.). This is in accordance with the VFR cruising altitudes rules, which specify that when flying at altitudes of 3,000 feet AGL or above, pilots should fly at altitudes that are an even thousand feet plus 500 feet.Rate this question:

Where a VFR flight plan has been filed, the pilot in command shall report arrival to the appropriate Air Traffic Control unit no later than;
- A.
30 minutes after landing.
- B.
1 hour after landing.
- C.
12 hours after landing.
- D.
24 hours after landing.
Correct Answer
B. 1 hour after landing.Explanation
The pilot in command is required to report their arrival to the appropriate Air Traffic Control unit no later than 1 hour after landing when a VFR (Visual Flight Rules) flight plan has been filed. This allows the ATC unit to keep track of the aircraft's movements and ensure its safe arrival. Reporting within this timeframe helps maintain effective communication and coordination between the pilot and ATC.Rate this question:
