- 1What’s more likely to be an accident hazard, climbing towards big ridges ahead or the gradually rising valley floor?It’s the benign terrain associated with it, like the valley floor.
- 2Why do Pilot’s wait too long to turn around when getting squeezed out between what turned out to be a paltry maximum performance climb and deceptively rising terrain?Because they’re focusing on the high ridges and fail to see the rising valley floor until it’s too late.
- 3Why does the turn back fail in rising terrain?1. Rising floor robbed us of vertical turning room
2. Canyon always narrows, limiting turning room
3. Ground speed is faster in high density altitude, creating a wider turning radius
4. Need much more room for 180 degree turn up higher than at sea level
5. Airspeed bleeds off faster executing turns w/ normal control pressures at High DA
6. Leeward mountain downdrafts rob performance - 4Missed approach six CsCram it (all levers or plungers forward)
Climb it (60 or better verify pos rate)
Clean it
Cool it (open cowls)
Course it (directionally)
Communicate it (“missed approach “) - 5A vehicle is on a runway not in use at a non-towered airport without published NOTAM. This is considered a runway incursion. Why?Because non-towered airport runways are always considered active.
- 6If possible, it is best to avoid _____ or more intersecting ______ or ______ in any combination.If possible, it is best to avoid three or more intersecting taxiways or runways in any combination.
- 7ATC requests that you taxi or back taxi on the active runway. You should ____?Decline if practical
- 8The two most paradoxal effects in WX?1. Stable inversions that trap fog and haze
2. Unstable air masses that churn the air and clears stuff out creating excellent visibility - 9Two fundamental types of motion seen in the atmosphere?1. Convection
2. Forcing -or dynamic lift or dynamic subsidence
