When selecting a diversion airfield, what weather conditions must be considered?
- Ceiling <500 ft AGL
- SCT Cumulonimbus (CB) clouds
- Any Thunderstorms
- Visibility <2000 meters
- Winds outside aircraft limits
For the period of flight plus one hour
For planning of BINGO fuel requirements, how much fuel should be calculated for every 10NM to be flown?
25lbs
This amount should be added to MFGA (see paras 14-17).
What is the Final Reserve Fuel for the PC 21?
200lbs
This is the minimum amount of fuel that must remain upon landing at the diversion airfield.
True or false: If aircrew suspect they will land with less than Final Reserve Fuel, they must declare an emergency to ATC.
TRUE
Declaring an emergency is necessary if the fuel is below the Final Reserve Fuel threshold.
When should Minimum Fuel be declared to ATC?
When it becomes apparent that an aircraft will arrive at the destination airfield with less than or equal to MFGA
This declaration is crucial for air traffic management.
What is the MFGA for Al Udeid (OTBH) when flying to Doha (OTBD) under VFR?
300 Ibs
This value is specific to the operational parameters for Al Udeid.
What is the BINGO FUEL calculation based on?
25lbs/10NM, based on 30 track miles and an overhead break
This calculation helps determine fuel requirements for safe return or diversion.
What is the standard BINGO fuel for Doha (OTBD) under IFR?
525 Ibs
This is based on the standard BINGO fuel calculations for alternate airfields.
What additional fuel should be added if operating outside 30NM ALD?
+ 25 Ibs / 10NM
This adjustment accounts for extra track miles.
What is the additional fuel requirement if an instrument approach is expected at the destination?
+ 50 Ibs
This ensures adequate fuel for the approach and landing.
By how much should MFGA and BINGO values be increased for solo BFT students?
100 lbs
What word should pilots use to indicate they are in visual contact with traffic?
Visual
The word ‘contact’ indicates contact with given traffic on the datalink system.
PFD altimeter must read +/- how many ft of runway elevation?
+/- 50 ft
And +/- 50 ft of the SFD

Wake turbulence separation behind a heavy aircraft (KC-135, C17)
3 minutes
Training G-Limits
+7.0G and -3G
Wha is the Transition Altitude? (TA)
13000 ft MSL
What is the TL? (Transition Level)
FL150
Alt block of ML training areas
6000 ft - 13000 ft
Except A3 which is 7500 ft - 13000 ft
What is the speed limit in the Al Udeid/Dukhan combined CTA?
300 kts IAS
Generic missed approach procedure for PC-21 at OTBH?
Climb to 3000 ft MSL & maintain runway heading
