Approach Charts

For questions 1-20 use an ILS approach chart from the area, it should include a compass locator (LMM) at the middle marker.

1. What is the approach category for your aircraft?

2. With all components operating, what are the decision height and visibility requirements for the ILS approach?

3. What is the decision height and visibility requirement if the LMM and approach lighting system are inoperative?

4. What is the localizer frequency and identifier?

5. Can you use DME for this approach? Is DME required?

6. What is the minimum procedure turn altitude?

7. What is the minimum glide slope intercept altitude?

8. Where does the final approach segment begin?

9. What is the final approach course?

10. At what altitude does the electronic glide slope cross the outer marker?

11. What is the distance from the outer marker to the runway threshold?

12. At what altitude does the electronic glide slope cross the middle marker?

13. How is the missed approach point determined for the approach?

14. What is the height of the electronic glide slope at the runway threshold?

15. Are there any limitations noted for the straight-in or circle-to-land procedures?

16. What is the elevation of the touchdown zone?

17. With the glide slope inoperative, what are the applicable MDA and visibility requirements?

18. During a localizer approach, where does the final approach segment begin and how do you determine the missed approach point for this approach?

19. If applicable, what is the MSA to the east?

20. What does flight at or above and MSA guarantee and when can you use an MSA?

To answer questions 21-30 use a VOR approach from the local area, the VOR should be located on the field.

21. How will you obtain the latest weather observation at this airport before you begin approach?

22. What is the frequency and identification of the primary facility?

23. What is the minimum procedure turn altitude for the approach?

24. What types of course reversals may you use for the procedure turn?

25. Where does the final approach segment begin?

26. At what point may you begin a decent from the procedure turn altitude?

27. What is the final approach course?

28. What are the MDA and visibility requirements for a Category C aircraft?

29. Where is the missed approach point?

30. Assume you have just executed the missed approach procedure, what additional action should you take?

31. During an approach in a non-radar environment, what reports are you expected to make to ATC without request?

32. Assume you are flying a Category A aircraft at an approach speed of 100 knots during a circle-to-land maneuver. Which minimums should you use and why?
