MEA
The MEA is the lowest published altitude between radio fixes that ensures navigation signal coverage and meets obstacle clearance requirements between those fixes.
1,000 feet of clearance over non-mountainous terrain
2,000 feet of clearance over designated mountainous areas
RNAV Minimum En Route Altitude
aircraft flying on RNAV routes. lowest published altitude between fixes that assures obstacle clearance and adequate navigation signal coverage along the route segment.
1,000 feet of clearance over non-mountainous terrain
2,000 feet of clearance over designated mountainous areas
MOCA
Minimum Obstruction Clearance Altitude
Remember MOCAT it has a T on Jeppesen and a STAR on Government
assures acceptable navigation signal coverage only within 22 NM of a VOR. altitude that guarantees VOR reception within 22 NM (25 SM) from the beacon
1,000 feet of clearance over non-mountainous terrain
2,000 feet of clearance over designated mountainous areas
What are the IFR fuel requirements?
Fly to destination, then to the FURTHEST alternate, then 45 minutes at normal cruise speed
On the ILS Cat I approach, outside the final fix, visibility drops below minimums, what do you do? Inside the final approach fix, what do you do? Can you land if it drops below minimums once inside the final fix?
Outside the FAF - Execute Missed Approach Inside the FAF - Continue Approach Drops Below Minimums Inside the FAF - Continue Approach
What is your airspeed if you are vectored off of a SID?
If vectored off a SID route segment where a published speed applies, the published speed is cancelled and speed is at the pilot’s discretion unless ATC has assigned a speed.
Below 10000 max 250 or if assigned another airspeed.
Class B speeds
1) When operating beneath Class B airspace, or in a VFR corridor through it, you may not exceed 200 knots IAS.
2) Within 4 nm of class C or D airport 200 KIAS
3) Below 10,000 250 KIAS
What would you do if you you’re next in line for takeoff and windshear was just reported from previously departed aircraft?
Runway performance change checklist
Properly debrief threats of w/s including performance data/TOGA, and any PIREPS.
wait at least 15 minutes to w/s dissipates or request another runway
What are some threats on the SIDs out of LAS?
Terrain to the west, possibly the high density altitude impacting performance, and on the JOHKR multiple restrictions that are both above and below restrictions.
You can mitigate by slowing down, keeping flaps
Can you continue an approach if weather drops below minimums inside the FAF?
Yes, you can continue to the MAP and down to the MDA/DA
his means you are past (inside) the Final Approach Fix (FAF
