Question | Answer |
---|---|
During _____, or _____after assuming responsibility for a control position, check the operating equipment for alignment accuracy and display acceptability. Recheck _____ throughout the watch. | relief briefing; as soon as possible; periodically |
Accuracy of the radar video display must be verified for digitized radar systems by using the... | moving target indicator (MTI) reflectors, fixed location beacon transponders (Parrots), beacon real−time quality control (RTQC) symbols or calibration performance monitor equipment (CPME) beacon targets. |
______conducts continuous self−monitoring of alignment accuracy; therefore, controller alignment checks are not required. | Digital Terminal Automation Systems (DTAS) |
Secondary radar may be used as the sole display source as follows: | Class A airspace; Additional coverage is provided by secondary radar beyond that of the primary radar; The primary radar is temporarily unusable or out of service. Advise pilots when these conditions exist; only source |
If beacon range accuracy cannot be verified, you may use beacon targets only for _____ | traffic information. |
When radar mapping is not available, limit radar services to: | Separating ID'd a/c; Vector for PAR intercept; Radar service in areas with no conflicts |
Report radar malfunctions _____ for corrective action and for dispatch of a ______. | immediately / Notice to Airmen |
_____ is designated as the common military/civil mode for air traffic control use. | Mode 3/A |
Make radar beacon code assignments to only ______transponder-equipped aircraft. | Mode 3/A |
do not request an aircraft to change from the code it was squawking in the transferring facility’s area until the aircraft is within _______ | your area of responsibility. |
Assign codes to departing IFR aircraft as follows:____to an aircraft which will climb to FL 240 or above or to an aircraft which will climb to FL 180 or above where the base of Class A airspace and the base of the operating sector are at FL 180 | Code 2000 |
Assign codes to departing IFR aircraft as follows:____to an aircraft which will remain below FL 240 or below FL 180 | Code 1100 |
Assign codes to en route IFR aircraft below FL240 as follows:____may be assigned to aircraft changing altitudes. | Code 1000 |

_____ to an aircraft operating at an assigned altitude from FL 350 to FL 600 inclusive. Should an additional code be operationally desirable,_____ must be assigned | Code 2400 / Code 2500 |
_____ when aircraft are operating on a flight plan specifying frequent or rapid changes in assigned altitude | Code 4000 |
____may be assigned for descents into and while within the strata below FL 240 | Code 1500 |
Instruct IFR aircraft which cancel an IFR flight plan and are not requesting radar advisory service and VFR aircraft for which radar advisory service is being terminated to _____. | squawk the VFR code |
When an aircraft changes from VFR to IFR, the controller must _____to Mode C equipped aircraft that will allow MSAW alarms. | assign a beacon code |
______are reserved for use by R−71,F−12, U−2, B−57, pressure suit flights, and aircraft operations above FL 600. | Mode 3/A, Code 4400, and discrete Codes 4440 through 4465 |
