| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 6 types of airspaces | A,B,C,D, E, G |
| an airspace of defined dimensions within which Air Traffic Control service is provided to IFR flights and to VFR flights in accordance with the airspace classification. | controlled airspace |
| Class A | Above All- 18,000 MSL Who flies there? IFR flights ONLY Clearance required? Yes Minimum pilot qualifications? Instrument Rating Chart depictions None Airspeed: |
| Class A airspace is over? | 48 states and Alaska w/in 12 nm of coast |
| Class B Airspace | big, busy airports, IFR and VFR, explicit clearance, private pilot and restricted student, solid blue lines, < Mach 1 above 10,000’ MSL ≤ 250 KIAS below 10,000’ MSL ≤ 200 KIAS in the underlying airspace or in a VFR corridor, 3sm, clear of clouds |
| mode C veil typically located where? and means? | 30nm of airport and means you need a working transponder C |
| Class C | crowded city, IFR/VFR, two way dialogue, no scped, sol magenta, <250 KIAS, <200 under 2,500 AGL w/in 4 nm of airport, vis 3SM, 500 below, 1,000 above, 2,000 horizontal |
| Class D | dwarf cities, I/F, 2 way, no spec, dashed blue, <250 kias and <200 below 2500 and w/in 4 nm of airport, 3512, traff ad only |
| Class D airports with part time tower become what after hours? | class E |
| Class E | everywhere not A-D or G, everyone, none, dashed magenta fading blue, fade mag, <250 under 10,000, |
| in class E airspace you need to be within how many miles of blue line | 4 nm |
| Class G | on ground below class E, everyone, none, no, implied by class E depictions, <250 below 10, |
| denote the existence of unusual, often invisible hazards to aircraft such as artillery firing, aerial gunnery, or guided missiles. | restricted areas |
| are there VFR restrictions in MOA? | no but advised not to enter when training is going on |
| Established in areas with a high volume of pilot training or unusual type of aerial activity | Alert Area |
| consists of airspace of defined vertical and lateral limits established for the purpose of separating military training activity from IFR traffic | MOA |
| MTRs are | prefixed with IR or VR, and 4 numbers for above 1,500 AGL and 3 numbers for routes extending for atleast 1 leg above 1,500 AGL |
| TFR are for? (3) examples | people, disaster/humanitarian relief, airshows, |
| in National security areas NSA pilots are expected to? | avoid flying below a certain altitude |
| Class E air space starts at surface when there are | dashed magenta lines |
