Fourth Quarter Recurrent Exam

On a direct dispatch, documentation of crew, tail, RA, and lift time/flight time is required. This is because direct dispatch refers to a flight where the aircraft does not make any intermediate stops and flies directly to its destination. In such cases, it is crucial to have proper documentation of the crew members, the aircraft's tail number, the required equipment (RA), and the lift time or flight time. This documentation ensures that all necessary information is recorded and available for reference during the flight. Therefore, the answer "False" is correct.

The second card should contain the entry "Rerouted from 300-11-xxxxx" because it provides important information about the change in the flight route. This entry indicates that the flight was originally scheduled to follow a certain route (300-11-xxxxx), but due to some circumstances, it was rerouted. This information is crucial for the passenger and any relevant parties involved in the flight to be aware of the change in the planned itinerary.

The entry "Ntfd caller that future requests need to be directed to central communications" will not be documented because it is not directly related to the dispatch process. It is simply a notification given to the caller about future requests. The other entries provide information about receiving a direct dispatch, accepting the flight, obtaining necessary information, and making a follow-up call for additional information.

The correct answer is that the flight request that is declined by the closest base should contain documentation that the caller was offered the next closest AEL base or offered assistance with other air service. This means that when the closest base declines the request, they should provide evidence that they provided alternative options to the caller, such as offering them the next closest base or assisting them with finding another air service. This ensures that the caller is provided with alternative options and assistance in case their initial request is declined.

The statement is false because when documenting acceptance of a flight request, the communication specification (comm spec) should document not only crew acceptance and RA (required actions), but also other important details such as flight details, passenger information, and any special requirements. It is essential to have a comprehensive documentation to ensure smooth execution of the flight request and to provide a clear record for future reference.

The correct answer is Crew, a/c VIN number (tail number), RA, lift time/flight time. This entry is necessary to document the crew members who are assigned to the flight, the unique identification number of the aircraft (VIN number or tail number), the required approvals (RA), and the duration of the flight broken down into lift time and flight time. This information is important for record-keeping, tracking purposes, and ensuring compliance with regulations.

Ground ambulance documentation needs to include pre-arrival instructions given per EMD protocols. This means that when requesting a ground ambulance, the documentation should include any instructions that were given to the caller before the ambulance arrived, following the protocols set by the Emergency Medical Dispatcher (EMD). These instructions could include guidance on how to provide immediate care or stabilize the patient until the ambulance arrives.

In this scenario, the statement is false. Even if the closest available unit is "green" for weather and within their service area, it is still necessary to document the CAD ete (Estimated Time of Arrival) given to the caller. This documentation is important for record-keeping purposes and to ensure that there is a clear record of the response time provided to the caller.

The correct answer is "AExx accepted ground standby request, lift time, flight time, crew, crew, crew, RA, tail #". This answer includes all the necessary information that is required on a flight request for a ground standby only. It mentions the acceptance of the ground standby request by AExx, the lift time and flight time, the crew members, the RA (reservation agent), and the tail number of the aircraft.

Documentation of Nontransports is not required only if the base actually lifts on the flight. This means that even if the base does not lift on the flight, documentation of Nontransports is still required. Therefore, the statement is false.

An entry documenting initial notification to the caller of which base is responding with a CAD-generated ETE (broken into lift time/flight time) is required for all three scenarios mentioned in the options: scene flight without a weather check, transfer flight that is a ground standby only, and scene flight with a weather check.

The correct answer is "Ntfd caller AExx closest base with lift time/flight time, weather check, caller request call back." This entry includes all the necessary information for a flight request, scene or transfer. It specifies the closest base (AExx) with the estimated lift time/flight time, indicates the need for a weather check, and states that the caller has requested a call back.

The correct answer is "all of the above" because all of the mentioned documentation is included in a flight request that is a ground standby only. The first sentence describes the notification of the caller to the AExx base, the second sentence mentions the acceptance of the ground standby request along with specific details, and the third sentence talks about the caller calling back to either launch or cancel AE xx with a reason for canceling. Therefore, all of the mentioned documentation is included in a ground standby only flight request.

When documenting crew, tail, RA, and ETE, the ETE does need to be broken into lift time/flight time. This means that the estimated time en route needs to be divided into the time spent in lift (when the aircraft is actually in the air) and the time spent on the ground. This breakdown is important for accurate record-keeping and planning purposes. Therefore, the statement that the ETE does not need to be broken into lift time/flight time is false.

The given answer is not required because it does not provide any relevant information or action that needs to be taken. The other entries provide necessary information such as notifying the caller of the decline, offering an alternative base, making a weather turn down entry, and instructing the caller to hold.
