GRF

Question 1

If it were necessary to remove the stopway in an OPT take-off calculation how would you do this?

Answer 1

In the NOTAM tab enter 1 in the ‘Takeoff shortening from liftoff end’ box

Question 2

For runways reporting multiple contaminants at a GRF airport which of the following statements is true?

Answer 2

OPT calculation must be completed for each OPT condition and the most limiting case must be used for take-off performance calculation. Crosswind limit will be determined based on the lowest RWYCC

Question 3

ATIS CONDITIONS: 300/15, 9999, FEW030, -04/-06, QNH 1005 Given the above RCR and ATIS what OPT condition would you select for take-off?

Answer 3

Medium

Question 4

ATIS CONDITIONS: 270/10, -SN, 2000, OVC005, 01/00, QNH 1000, LW 55000 Kg, Aircraft: EI-GRF Given the above RCR and ATIS are you permitted to land?

Answer 4

No, all operations on RWYCC 1 or 0 are prohibited. Crew must use the lowest of the three reported RWYCCs

Question 5

When a Stopway has been reported as 80% covered in Ice what would the crew have to do to remove it from the ASDA?

Answer 5

The stopway can be removed within the NOTAM section by removing 1 metre from the Takeoff shortening from the liftoff end, this would remove the stopway and the clearway

Question 6

What does the abbreviation RCAM stand for?

Answer 6

Runway Condition Assessment Matrix

Question 7

When considering dry snow at a non-EASA airport on 31 October 2021 you would divide the depth by 8 prior to entering into OPT (minimum depth 4 mm).

Answer 7

False

Question 8

ATIS CONDITIONS: 270/20, 9999, FEW020, -04/-06, QNH 1010 Given the above RCR and ATIS what is the crosswind limit for take-off?

Answer 8

20 kt

Question 9

When anticipating deteriorating weather conditions at EGNM what would be the minimum RYWCC that can be accepted for landing?
ATIS CONDITIONS: 270/10, -SN, 2000, OVC005, 02/01, QNH 1000, LW 56000 Kg, Aircraft: EI-GRF

Answer 9

3

Question 10

When considering a GRF airport, which of the following statements is true?

Answer 10

Using the RCAM, the airport operator generates the RCR and provides this to ATC. RCR is then communicated to aircrew via SNOWTAM, ATIS or ATC

Question 11

What does the abbreviation RCR stand for?

Answer 11

Runway Condition Report

Question 12

In moderate or heavy rain the depth of standing water may be a function of the rainfall intensity. When considering moderate or heavy rain at a GRF airport, select the correct answer.

Answer 12

In the absence of an updated RCR assume a RYWCC of 2 when rainfall intensity is moderate or heavy on an ungrooved runway or heavy on a grooved runway

Question 13

Given the above RCR what depth of Dry Snow would you enter into OPT for the take-off calculation?

Answer 13

24 mm
