Question 1
Airspace in which IFR and VFR @ights are permitted, and all @ights are subject to an Air
TraGc Control service, and all are separated from each other with the exception of VFR to
VFR @ights for which ATC will provide traGc information is:
Question ID: 130
Class E Airspace
Class D Airspace
Class C Airspace
Class A Airspace
1 of 3 27/10/2023, 23:31
Explanation
The diagram below shows the separation requirements according to class of airspace.
Since both VFR and IFR @ights are permitted, this means it cannot be Class A (which is
IFR only - see the Class A column in the lower yellow outline box). All @ights are also
subject to an ATC Service (look at the blue ATC characters in the upper yellow outline box
in the row "TraGc Information Provided"), so that precludes Class G, meaning we are left
with either Class C, D or E. Since ALL @ights (IFR, VFR, SVFR) are SEPARATED from each
other we need to look in the upper yellow outline box in the row labelled "ATC Separation
Provided"; this means it must be Class C, since in Class D, VFR is not SEPARATED from
IFR, and in Class E, only IFR is separated from IFR and nothing else.

activation times.
For a Danger area with a SOLID outline, the information is contained in the AIP (ENR
section).
For a Danger area with a BROKEN outline, this signiQes that the area is activated by
NOTAM.

Question 4
G-ECAK is an aircraft taxiing under its own power. G-TSIX is an aircraft being towed by a
vehicle with a callsign "TOW1" on the ground. Who gives way to who?
Question ID: 3118
Both TOW1 (towing G-TSIX) and GECAK have the same priority
TOW1 (towing G-TSIX) must give way to G-ECAK
G-ECAK must give way to TOW1 (towing G-TSIX)
TOW1 (towing G-TSIX) and G-ECAK should pass each other keeping each other on
the right
1 of 2 27/10/2023, 23:32
Explanation
Aeroplanes on the ground taxying under their own power have priority over aeroplanes
being towed by a vehicle. The vehicle towing the aeroplane must give way to the taxiing
aeroplane.

Question 8
An aircraft is ahead of you and to your right travelling in the same direction as yourself.
Which of the following answers is correct?
Question ID: 2246
Both aircraft should change heading to the left
The other aircraft must give way to you by moving to the right
You should give way to the other aircraft without passing under, over or in front of it
You should move further left and overtake the aircraft ahead
1 of 2 27/10/2023, 23:32
Explanation
Be careful with these answers. IF we were travelling faster than the other aircraft on
our right, then we would be in an overtaking situation, and the aircraft we are
overtaking would have right of way, but we would also have to turn RIGHT and
overtake to the RIGHT of the other aircraft; but the question doesn't state we are
travelling faster!
Instead, we use the generic rule of "On the Right, In the Right". In other words, any
aircraft that is on the right hand side of any other aircraft has the right of way!
So, the only correct answer from those listed is:

You should give way to the other aircraft without passing under, over or in front of it

Question 9
At night, in the cruise in level ?ight, you see a green navigation light of another aircraft at
a similar height on a steady relative bearing of 340o. There is:
Question ID: 150
a collision risk; change height to avoid a collision
a collision risk; no need to take avoiding action as you have right of way
a collision risk; you should turn left
no collision risk. The other aircraft should turn right to pass behind you
1 of 3 27/10/2023, 23:32
Explanation
Whenever a light is "steady", a collision risk exists.
Using the diagram below, the relative positions of each aircraft are shown (although
space has been compressed in the picture). From here we can see that YOU are on the
other aircraft's right-hand side, so the other aircraft should give way to YOU by turning
right and passing behind you.
Note that the distances between the aircraft are compressed in the diagram below!

Question 10
In the signals square, you see a red square with a single yellow diagonal line in it. What
does this mean?
Question ID: 2073
Ground movements are conGned to hard surfaces only
The state of manoeuvring area is poor. Special care is required.
The direction of take-off and landing may be different
The aerodrome is unsafe for aircraft movement. Landing is prohibited.
1 of 3 27/10/2023, 23:33
Explanation
Although somewhat antiquated now, you'll still need to know the signals square
markings for the Air Law Exam! Shown below is a selection (not all) that contain the
answer to this question).

Question 11
When should you set a squawk code of 0030?
Question ID: 2078
Only when becoming lost in Controlled Airpsace
Whenever talking to Distress and Diversion on 121.500MHz during a MAYDAY call
Never. This code does not exist for general use
When you are LOST, and you are not talking to an ATSU, and you have not been
allocated a discreet squawk
1 of 2 27/10/2023, 23:33
Explanation
0030 is an ICAO standard (in any country) and signiWes that the aircraft is LOST
(uncertain of position).
If you are already communicating with an ATSU, and have already been given a squawk,
you should retain that squawk whilst communicating your predicament.
If, however, you are not talking to an ATSU, and have not been allocated a squawk (i.e.
you are squawking a conspicuity code of 7000 or 2000), then prior to contacting Distress
& Diversion [London Centre 121.500MHz], you should squawk 0030.

Question 12
When being intercepted in <ight, how would you signal (using the aircraft) to state that
you are "unable to comply"?
Question ID: 140
Turn away from your interceptor
Rock your wings
Set Transponder to 7700 Mode A with Mode C (ALT)
Switch all available lights on and off at regular intervals but in such a manner as to
be distinct from <ashing lights
1 of 3 27/10/2023, 23:33
Explanation
The Interception Procedures (and your method of response) should adhere to the
International Standard for such occurrences. These are documented by ICAO (the
International Civil Aviation Organisation) and are common throughout the world.
It is VITAL that you understand the procedure. If you act in an unrecognised or

inappropriate manner, there could be serious consequences (such as being shot down)!
Ensure you are familiar with the procedure (see below)!

Question 13
An aircraft approaching an aerodrome at night observes a ?ashing red ground to air light
signal being directed at the aircraft. This means:
Question ID: 152
Land and move clear of the landing area
Land and return to the starting point of the aerodrome
Do not land. Aerodrome is closed
Do not land. Give way and continue circling
1 of 3 27/10/2023, 23:33
Explanation
Light signals are fairly rare in this day and age. However, there is still a requirement to
know what they mean. A ?ashing red light to an aircraft already in ?ight signiNes that the
aerodrome is CLOSED, and is NOT available for landing. Immediate plans to divert should
be made by the pilot.
See the diagram below for a visual explanation.

Question 14
For what reason might a licensed air@eld be closed during its normally published hours
within the AIP?
Question ID: 2100
Lack of runway lighting during the daytime
Reduced staJng levels, essential maintenance or manoeuvring service

unserviceability - all noti@ed by NOTAM
Poor weather conditions
Licensed air@elds will always be available during their published hours of operation
1 of 2 27/10/2023, 23:33
within the AIP
Explanation
This is one where you must choose the MOST correct answer. Runway lights are not
required during the day, so lack of them will not close an air@eld. Weather conditions are
subjective. For one pilot the weather may be considered poor. For another with an
instrument rating and fully-kitted IR panel, the weather conditions may be reasonable. A
licensed aerodrome will not close due to poor weather conditions. Licensed aerodromes
however could close due to reduced staJng levels, essential maintenance or
manoeuvring service unserviceability.

During a walk-round of an aircraft, a defect is observed. Who is responsible for recording

the defect in the technical log?
Question ID: 2253
The aircraft operator
The aircraft Owner
The aircraft engineer
The Pilot In Command
1 of 2 27/10/2023, 23:33
Explanation
The Pilot In Command is responsible for the aircraft, the Might, and the people on board.
It is therefore the Pilot In Commands responsibility to ensure that defects are recorded
and reported correctly.

Question 16
During taxiing, you come across the set of yellow lines shown below. If you are travelling
from LEFT to RIGHT in the diagram below, which of the following answers is correct?
Question ID: 2083
1 of 3 27/10/2023, 23:34
No clearance is required
A clearance must be obtained from the ATSU before crossing the double yellow line
ahead
It is advisable to obtain a clearance from the ATSU before crossing the double
yellow line ahead
Aircraft must not cross the double yellow line under any circumstances
Explanation
When multiple lines exist across a taxi-way, it is only the set of lines you FIRST encounter
that is relevant to you. So, travelling from LEFT to RIGHT means that you come across
the SOLID LINES across the taxi-way FIRST. SOLID double lines Srst signify a clearance is
required prior to crossing them. If you had been travelling in the opposite direction, you
would have come across the broken lines Srst, signifying that you may cross them
without a clearance.

Question 17
Large white diagonal crosses not more than 300 metres apart on a portion of runway
signify that:
Question ID: 124
the area between the crosses is unBt for take-off but may be used for taxying
the area between the crosses is unBt for landing but may be used for take-off
the area between the crosses is unBt for the movement of aircraft
the area between the crosses is unBt for landing but may be used for taxying
1 of 2 27/10/2023, 23:34
Explanation
Usually, the crosses will occupy a while runway if the runway is not suitable as a whole
for landing on. In the event of only a portion of the runway not being available (obviously
one end, not the bit in the middle!), then there would also be a displaced threshold
marker.
The important thing is that between the crosses, the surface is deemed to be unsuitable
for ANY aircraft movement!

Question 18
Subject to any additional instruments prescribed by the appropriate authority, all aircraft
operating on VFR Fights shall be equipped with at least the following:
Question ID: 163
magnetic compass, sensitive pressure altimeter and an airspeed indicator
attitude indicator, magnetic compass, sensitive pressure altimeter and an airspeed

indicator
magnetic compass, accurate timepiece, sensitive pressure altimeter and an

airspeed indicator
1 of 3 27/10/2023, 23:34
Explanation
turn co-ordinator or indicator, sensitive pressure altimeter, airspeed indicator and an
E"ectively, the minimum
engine RPM gauge legal equipment for VFR flight is that required in order to
navigate in 3D.
For this, you need to know your height (altitude), heading, speed, and something to
measure time.
Note that the question only asks for the aircraft equipment. Obviously, a map would
be sensible, but is not included in the AIRCRAFT equipment list.
Interestingly under PART-NCO (for EASA aircraft [or in the UK PART-21 Aircraft]),
itâ€™s actually a requirement for the timepiece to be fitted:
PART-NCO.IDE.A.120:
(a) Aeroplanes operated under VFR by day shall be equipped with a means of
measuring and displaying the following:
(1) magnetic heading;
(2) time, in hours, minutes and seconds;
(3) barometric altitude;
(4) indicated airspeed; and
(5) Mach number, whenever speed limitations are expressed in terms of Mach
number.
So, the correct answer is:

magnetic compass, accurate timepiece, sensitive pressure altimeter and an airspeed
indicator
