Private Pilot Licence- Air Law

The green flashing signal light directed at you indicates that you are cleared to taxi.

To be issued a Private Pilot License (Aeroplane), according to CARS 421.26, you must have a certain number of hours of solo cross-country time. The correct answer is 5, which means you need to have at least 5 hours of solo cross-country time in order to qualify for the license.

A blanket type rating can be issued to cover all airplanes with a minimum flight crew of one pilot, excluding high performance airplanes. This means that pilots with this type rating can operate any airplane that falls within this category, as long as it has a minimum flight crew of one pilot and is not classified as a high performance airplane.

To obtain a private pilot license, at least a category 3 medical is required as stated in CARS 421.26 (2). This means that the pilot must undergo a medical examination and meet the medical standards specified for category 3. This medical examination ensures that the pilot is physically fit and capable of safely operating an aircraft.

The correct answer is "As soon as possible." In the event of an emergency landing, activating the ELT (Emergency Locator Transmitter) as soon as possible is crucial. The ELT is a device that emits a distress signal to alert search and rescue teams of the aircraft's location. By activating it promptly, the chances of being located and rescued quickly are increased. This is why it is important to activate the ELT as soon as possible after an emergency landing.

The flashing red lights from the tower indicate that the airport is currently unsafe. Therefore, the appropriate action to take would be to land at the airport for the time being.

A result of 60% or higher is considered a pass for the Private Pilot Written Examination according to CARS 421.26. This means that in order to pass the exam, a candidate must correctly answer at least 60% of the questions.

To acquire a seaplane rating on an aircraft that requires one crew member, the holder of a landplane rating will need to complete 7 hours of training, including 5 hours of dual flight instruction and 5 solo takeoffs and landings. This information is based on CARS 421.38 (1).

A Private Pilot Licence without additional ratings allows a pilot to fly as a pilot in command or co-pilot of an airplane that is endorsed with the appropriate ratings. This means that the pilot can operate an aircraft of a specific class and type for which they have received the necessary qualifications and endorsements. This ensures that the pilot has the necessary knowledge and skills to safely operate the specific type of airplane.

If intercepted by a military aircraft, the correct actions to take are to follow instructions, respond to signals, and if possible, notify the appropriate Air Traffic Services Unit (ATSU). Additionally, the pilot should attempt to establish radio communication with the intercepting aircraft on the frequency 121.5 MHz and squawk Mode A 7700 on the transponder, if it is equipped with one. This ensures that the pilot is cooperating with the intercepting aircraft and is taking the necessary steps to communicate and comply with their instructions.

An immigration officer, peace officer or the minister can demand that a licence, certificate or permit issued in terms of the Canadian Aviation Regulations is produced. This means that these individuals have the authority to request proof of a valid aviation document from individuals involved in aviation activities. This could be for various reasons such as verifying compliance with regulations, ensuring safety, or conducting an investigation.

When there is a forest fire, there are restrictions on the flight path to ensure safety. According to CFS section C and AIM RAC 2.9.2, the correct answer states that you may not operate below 3000 feet within 5 nautical miles of the forest fire area. This restriction is in place to keep aircraft at a safe altitude and minimize the risk of interference with firefighting operations. Operating at a higher altitude allows for better visibility and reduces the chance of encountering smoke or other hazardous conditions.

In the Southern domestic airspace, VFR flights select an altitude above 3000 feet AGL based on magnetic track. This means that pilots flying in this airspace should choose an altitude above 3000 feet above ground level that corresponds to their magnetic track. The specific altitude selection is important for maintaining safe separation between aircraft and ensuring efficient air traffic flow.

When flying VFR by day in a control zone (CTR), the minimum allowable visibility is 3 miles, while the minimum horizontal distance from cloud is 1 mile, and the minimum vertical distance from cloud is 500 feet. This information is stated in CFS section C and CARS 602.114.

The correct answer is 17,12,150. According to CARS 421.26 (4), in order to meet the experience requirements for a private pilot license, the applicant must have a minimum of 17 hours of dual flight instruction and 12 hours of solo flight time. This solo flight time must include a solo cross country of at least 150 nm with at least 2 full stops and landings.

The correct answer states that you may not act as a crew member of an aircraft while under the influence of alcohol nor within 8 hours of consuming alcohol. This means that even if you are not currently under the influence of alcohol, you are still prohibited from performing your duties as a crew member within 8 hours of consuming alcohol. This is in accordance with the regulations stated in CARS 602.03 and AIM AIR 3.5, which prioritize the safety and well-being of passengers and crew members.

An airport is simply an aerodrome for which a Canadian Aviation Document is in force means that an airport is a specific type of aerodrome that has met certain regulatory requirements set by the Canadian Aviation Document. This implies that all airports are aerodromes, but not all aerodromes are airports. This is the primary difference between the two terms. The other options provided in the question, such as instrument approaches and control towers, do not accurately reflect the primary difference between aerodromes and airports.

When flying under controlled visual flight rules (CVFR) within controlled low level airspace above 12,500 feet, the transponder should be set to mode A, code 1400, along with mode C. This is in accordance with the Canadian Flight Supplement (CFS) section C and the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) RAC 1.9.

According to AIM LRA 3.5.5, if you change your address, it is mandatory to inform Transport Canada within 7 days.

The red flashing light from the tower indicates that the aerodrome is unsafe for takeoff. Therefore, the correct action to take in this situation is to taxi clear of the runway. This ensures that you are not attempting to take off from an unsafe aerodrome.

The correct answer is "Identification, position, time, altitude, VFR, destination." In a VFR position report, the pilot should first identify themselves, followed by stating their current position, the time of the report, their altitude, the fact that they are flying under VFR conditions, and their intended destination. This sequence ensures clear and concise communication of important information to air traffic control or other pilots.

According to the Canadian Aviation Regulation, night is defined as the period during which the sun's disc is more than 6 degrees below the horizon. This means that it is the time when the sun has set and is sufficiently below the horizon to result in darkness. This definition is important in aviation as it helps determine various factors such as visibility, lighting requirements, and pilot qualifications for night operations.

When operating at and in the vicinity of an uncontrolled aerodrome for which an ATF has not been published, the correct frequency to use is 123.2.

To acquire a landplane rating on an aircraft that requires one crew member, the holder of a seaplane rating will need a total of 5 hours of training. This includes 3 hours of dual flight instruction and 2 solo takeoffs and landings. This information is based on the regulations stated in CARS 421.38 (2).

The correct answer states that the altimeter should be set to 29.92 just after entering the Standard Pressure Region. This is because the Standard Pressure Region is defined as the area where the altimeter setting is 29.92 inches of mercury or 1013.2 millibars. Therefore, once the aircraft enters this region, the altimeter should be adjusted to the standard setting to ensure accurate altitude readings.

When taking off from an aerodrome located in the Standard Pressure Region and climbing to cruising altitude/level within the Standard Pressure Region, the altimeter should be set to the airport altimeter setting and left at this value until just prior to leveling off at the target altitude. This is because the airport altimeter setting provides the most accurate indication of altitude at the aerodrome, and it should be used during the climb until reaching the target altitude. At that point, the altimeter can be adjusted to the standard value of 29.92 to ensure accurate altitude readings at higher altitudes.
