    Study Notes

    Definitions

    • A danger area allows flight but with specific timing restrictions for dangerous activities.
    • A prohibited area prohibits all aircraft flight at all times.
    • Flight visibility is the distance a pilot can see ahead from the cockpit during flight.
    • Heavier-than-air aircraft derive lift from aerodynamic reactions.
    • A power-driven aircraft supported by atmosphere without/with reactions to a surface is called aircraft/aeroplane respectively.
    • A glider is an aircraft that derives lift via aerodynamic forces.
    • An aeroplane is a power-driven, heavier-than-air aircraft that gets lift from the aerodynamic reactions on surfaces while in flight.

    Approach to Landing

    • Approach to Landing is the portion of a flight where the aircraft descends below 1000 ft above the decision height or minimum descent height.
    • An alternate aerodrome is a predetermined airfield in case of a forced landing.

    Instrument Ground Time

    • Instrument ground time is the time a pilot spends practicing simulated instrument flight on a flight simulator.

    Flight Crew Members

    • A flight crew member is a licensed crew member responsible for operations during flight time.
    • A Solo flight is when a student pilot is the sole occupant of the aircraft and there are no other pilot input or assistant.

    International Agreements and Organizations

    • The fifth freedom allows an airline to take and put down passengers and cargo of traffic from one state to another state.
    • Bilateral agreements are created between two or more countries regarding aviation.

    Airworthiness of Aircraft

    • The standards for aircraft airworthiness are outlined in Annex 8.
    • These standards apply to all aeroplanes of a specific maximum take-off weight.

    Aircraft Nationality and Registration Marks

    • Aircraft registration marks are unique identifiers, allocated by a state, for each aircraft.
    • The state of registry is the state where the aircraft is registered.

    Flight Crew Licensing

    • Flight crew licenses are essential documents to operate aircraft and are held by the crew.
    • Licences must be updated regularly, with regards to medical examination, re-validation and renewal of required flight hours.

    Rules of the Air

    • Air traffic pilots must adhere to the rules of the air established by states.
    • States are responsible for the establishment of air operating rules for all aircraft.
    • Emergency regulations to handle emergency situations are part of the rules of the air.
