IFR Law Progress Test 2

You want to perform a non Air transport IFR flight. If you had an IFR competency check 5 months ago, what other requirements must you meet before carrying out the flight?

• Within the preceding 3 months have completed at least 3 hours of instrument time, of which at least 2 hours was instrument flight time

• Nothing. You have had your IFR competency check within the last 6 months so there is no other requirement

• Within the preceding 6 months have completed at least 6 hours of instrument time, of which at least 2 hours was instrument flight time.

• Within the preceding 3 months have completed at least 3 hours of instrument time, of which at least 1 hour was instrument flight time

Aerodromes may be fitted with a variety of Aerodrome Lighting Systems to meet their unique needs. RLLS stands for:

• Runway Centre - Line Lighting System. To illuminate the entire length of the runway centerline

• Runway Lead - In Lighting System. Where additional illumination is required to provide a positive track to an aerodrome

• Runway Edge Lighting. To light the edges of the runway.

• Runway Landing Light System. Illuminates the touchdown area to assist with visual approaches at night.

You are a non Air Transport flight and your passenger has a current PPL and appropriate type rating for the aircraft. Can you practice some simulated instrument flight with your passenger acting as safety pilot provided the aircraft remains in VMC by day?

• Yes

• No

• No. Your passenger must have a CPL or ATPL to act as safety pilot.

• No. To act as safety pilot your passenger must have a current instructor and instrument rating.

The VOR/ DME minima for Maitakurangi (MI) are:

550 (449) – 2500

You wish to nominate MI as an alternate on an IFR flight with a VOR/ DME approach, and notice that the published Alternate Minima for MI are 1000 – 5. To nominate MI as an alternate the forecast weather must be at or above:

• Ceiling 800ft, Visibility 4000 metres

• Ceiling 1249ft, Visibility 6500 metres

• Ceiling 1000ft, Visibility 5000 metres

• Ceiling 600ft, Visibility 3000 metres

You are about to depart on an IFR flight and notice that the fuel contents gauge in your aircraft is inoperative. Can the flight proceed?

• Yes, provided you are the only person on board

• Yes

• No

• Yes, provided you have dipped the tanks prior to flight and checked the fuel contents before each leg of the flight.

You are on an IFR flight NZ-HK-DUBON-RY-QN-NV. What is the altitude you may be cruising at after passing HK NDB?

• FL 140

• FL 150

• FL160

• FL170

An aircraft on a non Air Transport Operation using GPS as a primary means navigation system within the NZ Domestic FIR must be equipped with:

• At least 2 operable and appropriate sole means navigation systems other than GPS receivers.

• An onboard RAIM receiver which is able to correct any errors in the GPS database on board the aircraft

• At least 1 operable and appropriate sole means navigation systems other than GPS receivers.

• At least 2 other operable navigation systems using either VOR, DME, NDB, GPS or VORTAC

ILS (Cat 1) 223 (138**) – 2000 Precision DH

LLZ 400 (315**) – 4000 Non Precision MDH

The above starred numbers represent:

• The DH in feet above the threshold elevation and the MDH in feet above threshold elevation

• The DH in feet above aerodrome level and the MDH in feet above aerodrome level

• The DH in feet above threshold elevation and the MDH in feet above aerodrome level

• The DH in feet above the threshold elevation and the DA in feet above aerodrome elevation

The altitudes shown in the sectors of a VORSEC chart represent

• The MRA for the sector

• The higher of MSA or MRA for the sector

• The MSA for the sector

• The higher of the MRA, MSA, or MEA for the sector

What is your minimum IFR departure minima at an aerodrome with no minima stipulated?

• 1000 ft ceiling, 5000 m visibility

• 300 ft ceiling, 1500 m visibility

• 600 ft ceiling, 5000 m visibility

• 0 ft ceiling, 800 m visibility
