INSTRUMENT TAKEOFF AND CLIMB WITH SID / INSTRUMENT TAKEOFF PROCEDURES
1.
What instruments do you need in your scan at this point?
ANSWER: ADI, AOA, airspeed
2.
At what point in the ITO do you retract the flaps/slats?
ANSWER: When wings are level at a minimum of 140 KIAS, 300 ft AGL and safely airborne
3.
What is the maximum airspeed below 10,000 ft?
ANSWER: 250 KIAS
4.
What indications are required before you can raise the gear?
ANSWER: Positive rate of climb on VSI and altimeter, safely airborne, and a minimum of 100 ft AGL
STANDARD INSTRUMENT DEPARTURES
5.
What are the two basic types of SIDs?
ANSWER: Pilot nav and vector
6.
During a radar-vector departure, where do your instructions originate?
ANSWER: ATC controller (Departure control)
7.
What is the primary difference between a pilot nav and a vector SID?
ANSWER: The pilot is responsible for following the published instructions in a pilot nav and
following the controllers instructions for a vector SID.
8.
What information must the pilot repeat during instrument flight?
ANSWER: Headings, altitudes, and altimeter settings, and must acknowledge all radio calls
9.
How do you determine the lead point to intercept an arc from a radial?
ANSWER: 1 percent of ground speed = DME lead
10.
How do you determine the number of radials of lead required to intercept a radial from an arc?
ANSWER: 60 divided by DME of arc, multiplied by 1 percent of ground speed = number of lead
radials
