AVIA101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Tachometer, Taxiway, Terminal Control Area
Document Summary
B: ifr and vfr controlled (need radio communicate with tower) Underneath b, mix: controlled airspace (b,c,d,e: terminal control area around it. This is to reduce traffic (ifr/vfr can wait ) E: controlled only for vfr (ifr can fly in without control) A low level airway is based at 2200 agl unless otherwise specified. Cruising altitudes: come into effect when flying 3000 agl or higher. Based on magnetic track southern domestic airspace. True track for northern: from 000 to 179 fly odd 1000s + 500 (for vfr extra 500, from 180 to 359 fly even 1000s + 500. Standard pressure region (nda: set to current altimeter setting before take off (airport elevation, set to 29. 92 for cruise, set to altitude of destination prior to descent. Altimeter setting region (sda: set altimeter to current altimeter setting (elevation of aerodrome before takeoff, during cruise set to nearest station along route, set to destination elevation when landing-
