Determination of the appropriate altitude for crusing flight in the Northern Domestic Airspace is based on teh aircrafts;
-
Magnetic heading
-
True heading.
-
Mahnetic track.
-
True track.
Correct Answer
A. True track.Explanation
The determination of the appropriate altitude for cruising flight in the Northern Domestic Airspace is based on the aircraft's true track. True track refers to the actual direction that the aircraft is moving over the ground, taking into account factors such as wind. By considering the true track, pilots can ensure that they maintain an appropriate altitude to avoid conflicts with other aircraft and to optimize their flight efficiency. Magnetic heading, true heading, and magnetic track are not directly related to determining the altitude for cruising flight in this context.Rate this question:

All high level controlled airspace above FL600 within the Canadian Domestic Airspace structure has been designated;
-
Class A
-
Class G
-
Class E
-
Class F
Correct Answer
A. Class EExplanation
In the Canadian Domestic Airspace structure, all high level controlled airspace above FL600 has been designated as Class E. Class E airspace is typically controlled airspace that is not Class A, B, C, or D. It is used to separate IFR traffic from other IFR or VFR traffic and is generally found above Class D airspace. This designation ensures that there is proper control and separation of aircraft in this high-level airspace.Rate this question:

Consider an airport with Class C control zome. What would be the status of this airport and it's control zome airspace classification when the tower is not operating?
-
Controlled airport; Class E airspace.
-
Controlled airport; Class D airspace.
-
Uncontrolled airport; Class E airspace.
-
Uncontrolled airport; Class G airspace.
Correct Answer
A. Uncontrolled airport; Class E airspace.Explanation
When the tower of an airport with a Class C control zone is not operating, the airport is considered uncontrolled. The airspace classification in this scenario would be Class E. Class E airspace extends from the surface (or the base of the overlying controlled airspace) up to a certain altitude, and it is not controlled by air traffic control. Pilots are responsible for their own separation and must follow the applicable rules and regulations for operating in Class E airspace.Rate this question:

Which of the following types of controlled airspacethat are based in the Low Level airspace can extend upwards into the High Level airspace structure?
-
Victor Airways
-
Control Area Extensions.
-
Terminal Control Areas.
-
Class C control zomes associated with Canada's major airports.
Correct Answer
A. Terminal Control Areas.Explanation
Terminal Control Areas (TCA) are a type of controlled airspace that can extend upwards into the High Level airspace structure. TCAs are typically established around busy airports to manage the flow of air traffic in and out of the airport. They have specific entry and exit procedures and are controlled by air traffic control. Victor Airways are airways that connect navigational aids and are typically located in the Low Level airspace. Control Area Extensions are areas that extend the boundaries of existing control areas. Class C control zones associated with Canada's major airports are specific types of controlled airspace but do not extend into the High Level airspace structure.Rate this question:

The Pilot of an IFR aircraft that is climbing during departure out of Edmonton International Airport is cleared to climb to and maintain FL270. In this case, the pilot should set the aircraft altimeter to standard pressure (29.92" og Hg) immediately;
-
After level-off at FL270
-
After climbing through 18,000 feet ASL
-
Prior to reaching FL270
-
Prior to reaching 18,000 feet ASL
Correct Answer
A. After climbing through 18,000 feet ASLExplanation
The correct answer is after climbing through 18,000 feet ASL. This is because when flying under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), pilots are required to set their altimeters to the standard pressure (29.92" Hg) when they transition from the altitude-based system (where the altimeter is set to the local pressure) to the flight level system (where the altimeter is set to the standard pressure above 18,000 feet ASL). Therefore, the pilot should set the aircraft altimeter to standard pressure after climbing through 18,000 feet ASL.Rate this question:

With respect to the non-radar depature of a light aircraft from the threshold of teh same runway as a proceding medium aircraft, what spacing interval will ATC apply?
-
A four minute interval
-
A three minute interval
-
A two minute interval
-
No interval, but ATC will issue a wake turbulence advisory to the light aircraft.
Correct Answer
A. No interval, but ATC will issue a wake turbulence advisory to the light aircraft.Explanation
The correct answer is "no interval, but ATC will issue a wake turbulence advisory to the light aircraft." This means that ATC will not apply a specific spacing interval between the light aircraft and the medium aircraft, but they will provide a warning about the wake turbulence created by the medium aircraft. Wake turbulence refers to the disturbance in the air created by an aircraft's wings as it generates lift. It can be hazardous for smaller aircraft flying too close behind larger aircraft, so ATC will issue a warning to ensure the safety of the light aircraft.Rate this question:

The Touchdown Zome of the landing runway comprises whichever is teh lesser of;
-
The first 3,500 feet or the first one-half of the runway.
-
The first 3,000 feet or the first third of the runway.
-
The first 2,000 feet or the first one-quarter of the runway.
-
The first 1,000 feet or the first one-fifth of teh runway.
Correct Answer
A. The first 3,000 feet or the first third of the runway.Explanation
The Touchdown Zone of the landing runway is determined by the lesser of two options: the first 3,000 feet or the first third of the runway. This means that if the runway is shorter than 9,000 feet, the Touchdown Zone will be limited to the first 3,000 feet. However, if the runway is longer than 9,000 feet, the Touchdown Zone will be limited to the first third of the runway. This ensures that pilots have a designated area for landing and helps maintain safety during the landing process.Rate this question:
