    Study Notes

    Mode A/C Interrogations

    • Activation occurs through an inter-mode interrogation sequence.

    Wind Shear and IAS

    • Encountering wind shear at low altitude results in increasing IAS due to headwind and decreasing IAS due to tailwind.

    TCAS Types

    • Type 1 TCAS: Provides traffic information only, no advisories.
    • Type 2 TCAS: Offers traffic information and advisories for vertical maneuvers only.
    • Type 3 TCAS: Delivers comprehensive traffic information and advisories for both vertical and horizontal maneuvers.

    Clear Ice Temperature Range

    • Clear ice typically forms at temperatures ranging from 0 to 10 degrees Celsius, with severe conditions allowing formation up to 0 to 25 degrees Celsius.

    Fog Cooling Process

    • Fog cooling on a clear night occurs due to radiation cooling as it contacts the earth's surface.

    CAT and Jet Stream Inquiry

    • A question regarding Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) in relation to the jet stream requires selecting two options from a list of four possible choices.
