Instrument Approaches

A pilot is performing the ILS 19L in KTPA. When he reaches the approach minimums the pilot can only see the approach light system insight, but he can not identify the RED TERMINATING BARS.

What would be the appropriate course of action?

He has to go around upon reaching his DA.

He can continue descending up to 100 feet above the TDZE until the RED TERMINATING BARS or another element of the airport environment becomes visible.

He can legally continue and land since he had the approach light system insight.

He can continue descending to his MDA and maintain it until any other element of the airport environment becomes visibly or until he reaches his MISS APPROACH POINT.

An aircraft is approaching from the NE of KTMB. ATC has told the pilot to expect the ILS 9R.
Miami Approach: “N123EC, cleared to Laydn, report your procedure turn inbound.”

Upon receiving this clearance and proceeding direct to Layden, for how long should the aircraft fly outbound on the procedure turn?

The pilot needs to fly outbound for 4.5NM and then head inbound.

The pilot needs to fly outbound for 2min and then head inbound.

The pilot needs to fly outbound for 1min and then head inbound.

It is not specified. The pilot can decide as long as he remains within 10nm from Laydn.

Select a condition that must be met before descending below MDA or DA? (Part 91 Operations)

The ceiling must be above minimums

The flight visibility must be above the one prescribed on the approach.

The reported visibility must be above the one prescribed on the approach.

What is the Missed Approach Point for the Localizer RWY 24L at KLAX?

Upon reaching the DA of 500 feet.

Upon reaching the MDA of 500 feet.

Upon reaching 2.6 DME from the localizer

Upon reaching 1.9 DME from the localizer

Upon reaching 1.9 DME from the LAX VOR

ATC: “N123EC, cleared direct to CAPOK, report procedure turn inbound, cleared for the ILS RWY 18 in KPIE”

N123EC is 5NM west of KPIE at 5000 feet

When can the aircraft begin descending to comply with the altitudes specified in the chart?

As soon as ATC issued the clearance for the approach.

The moment the aircraft crosses CAPOK.

The aircraft can not descend until ATC issues an additional clearance.

ATC advised N123EC to expect the ILS RWY 8 in KJAX

Based on your preflight planning you know the ALS on the airport is inoperative.

What would be the approach minimums if your approach speed is 85kts?

4000 RVR

1800 RVR

4500 RVR

2400 RVR

What is the maximum airspeed for a procedure turn on an instrument approach?

230 Knots

200 Knots

250 Knots

How do you identify the FAF for the LOC RWY 5 in KFMY?

By using DME (5.8NM to the runway threshold).

With the use of the 354° radial from the RSW VOR.

By crossing the Locator Outer Marker.

By intercepting the glideslope at 2000 feet.

What is the purpose of an MSA on an instrument approach?

Is the altitude you should climb to if you decide to go around on the approach.

MSAs are for emergency use only.

Is the altitude ATC uses to provide radar vectors.

What is the purpose of the V shown in the profile view of the ILS RWY 6 in KHST?

It is a point in a non-precision approach where a descend below the MDA can be done, providing the conditions to go below minimums are met.

Its the missed approach point for the LOC Approach.

It is the point in which the pilot must advise ATC that the airport environment is in sight.
