Basic Flight Planning Exam

Basic Flight Planning Exam

A basic flight planning exam typically covers essential topics to ensure that you, as a pilot, can prepare and execute a safe flight. Here’s a summary of what you might expect, along with example questions and topics:

 1. Route Planning and Navigation

   - Flight Route Selection: Choosing the safest and most efficient route based on distance, airspace, and navigation aids.

   - Sectional Charts: Interpreting symbols, identifying landmarks, and understanding chart scales.

   - Waypoints and Navigation Aids: Planning with waypoints, VORs, and GPS for course guidance.

   

   Example Questions:

   - How do you determine the magnetic heading for a given route?

   - Identify restricted or prohibited airspace along a planned route.

 2. Weather and Weather Interpretation

   - Weather Briefing: Obtaining and interpreting METARs, TAFs, NOTAMs, and PIREPs for departure, en route, and destination.

   - Weather Minimums for VFR Flight: Knowledge of visibility, cloud clearance, and wind limits.

   - Alternate Airport Planning: Selecting an alternate if weather conditions deteriorate at your destination.

   

   Example Questions:

   - How would you interpret a METAR that includes the code “BKN030”?

   - What visibility and cloud clearance are required to operate in Class E airspace?

 3. Weight and Balance Calculations

   - Aircraft Loading: Ensuring the aircraft stays within weight and balance limits for safety and performance.

   - Center of Gravity (CG): Calculating CG and understanding how it affects aircraft handling.

   

   Example Questions:

   - How do you calculate the center of gravity based on passenger, baggage, and fuel weight?

   - What are the consequences of a forward vs. aft CG?

4. Fuel Requirements and Calculations

   - Fuel Planning: Calculating the amount of fuel needed for the trip, including reserves for diversions and delays.

   - Burn Rate and Endurance: Determining fuel burn rate based on engine power settings, altitude, and airspeed.

   

   Example Questions:

   - How much fuel reserve is required for a VFR cross-country flight?

   - If your burn rate is 8 gallons per hour, how much fuel is needed for a 2-hour flight with a 30-minute reserve?

5. Performance Calculations

   - Takeoff and Landing Distances: Calculating distances needed based on weight, runway surface, wind, and temperature.

   - Density Altitude: Understanding how high-density altitude affects aircraft performance.

   - Climb and Cruise Performance: Calculating rate of climb and cruise speed based on weather and weight.

   

   Example Questions:

   - How would high humidity and temperature affect takeoff distance?

   - What is density altitude, and how is it calculated?

6. Regulatory Requirements

   - VFR Flight Rules: Minimum safe altitudes, visibility, and equipment requirements.

   - Required Equipment: Understanding equipment regulations (e.g., transponder, GPS) based on airspace.

   

   Example Questions:

   - What is the minimum safe altitude for flying over a populated area?

   - Which transponder code is used for an emergency?

7. Emergency and Diversion Planning

   - Diversion Procedures: Planning for potential route deviations due to weather or other issues.

   - Emergency Protocols: Procedures for engine failure, fuel shortage, or adverse weather.

   

   Example Questions:

   - What factors should you consider when selecting a diversion airport?

   - What steps should you take if you experience an engine failure over open water?

 Study Tips

   - Use Practical Examples: Practice planning real or hypothetical flights to reinforce concepts.

   - Know Your Aircraft: Familiarize yourself with the POH for your aircraft, especially performance and weight/balance information.

   - Practice Calculations: Ensure you’re comfortable with fuel, weight, and performance calculations.

   - Review Regulations: Study airspace requirements, minimum altitudes, and visibility requirements.

Mastering these basics will help you confidently handle flight planning exams and prepare for safe flying.
