A STAR provides

A common method for leaving the en route structure and navigating to your destination.

When may you not fly an ODP?

Both answers are correct: when ATC assigned a SID When ATC has assigned a radar vector departure

Pilots on an IFR flight plan are required to fly a SID if one is published for the airport of departure.

False

Pilots operating IFR under FAR part 91 are strongly encouraged to avoid flying a DP in order to reduce congestion near an airport.

False

Portland Intl VOR A -- You are at ROARK (IF/IAF). You have been cleared to BTG VORTAC and cleared for the approach. Would you execute the procedure turn/full approach?

False

What are the 2 ways in which an IAP can be flown?

Full approach or radar vectors

If I get the runway in sight but it requires aggressive maneuvering to line myself up with the runway what should be done?

Go missed and attempt the approach again

If I need to hold upon reaching ABQ VOR what can I expect my holding instructions to be?

Hold west of the VOR on the R-257, left turns until reaching assigned altitude

Where can I find if the current chart is up to date?

In the area highlighted in blue

Which of the following is NOT a standard component of the Instrument Landing System (ILS)?

Inner Marker Beacon

What is the purpose of a SID?

Provide obstruction clearance and a transition from the terminal area to the appropriate en route structure

ODPs are recommended for obstruction clearance and may be flown without ATC clearance.

True

True or false. If the glide slope is inoperative or fails during your approach, the localizer (GS out) minimums apply and you may continue the approach to the applicable MDA.

True

When conducting a circling approach the pilot must maintain visual contact with the runway of intended landing at or above the circling minimums.

True

If I needed a cheat sheet guide to how many minutes and seconds will pass from the FAF to the Missed approach point at a given speed, where would I find this?

Under the airport sketch

If you are flying a category C approach and you plan on conducting the ILS 17L when will you go missed?

Upon reaching 6,387 feet

What is a side-step maneuver?

When a pilot maneuvers to land on the adjacent parallel runway

complte the 11.1 DME Arc from the BRK VOR

You are on the SIMMR transition and instructed to hold at RUDOF as published. What type entry should you make?

direct

You are executing an ILS approach and are past the LOM (FAF) to a runway which has a VASI. If the glidslope fails, and you have the VASI in sight, you ______________

may continue the approach using the VASI glideslope in place of the electronic glideslope.
