2. Radio Communication and Procedures pt 2

3. Control Zones Designated airspace around certain aerodromes to facilitate the control of VFR and IFR traffic Usually a 5 NM radius, 3,000’ AGL VFR weather limits are higher SVFR may be requested in some zones Most zones designated as class D

4. Obstacle Clearance Circle

5. Displaced Threshold

6. Control Zone in a Terminal Area is normally 7nm radius

7. VFR Weather Minima

8. SVFR - Special VFR Authorization obtained from the appropriate ATC unit allows you to fly: -within a control zone, -in IFR weather conditions, -without an IFR clearance -has to be requested by the pilot 1 mile for aircraft ½ mile for helicopters -working radio -clear of cloud, in sight of ground at night, only to allow the aircraft to land

9. CIRCUIT JOINING @ ATF

11. CAVOK KAV-OH-KAY No cloud below 5,000 feet, no cumulonimbus Visibility of 6 SM or more No precipitation, thunderstorms, shallow fog or drifting snow

12. EMERGENCY Declared Apparent Transponder 7700 Radio 121.5 Mhz 243.0 Mhz

13. EMERGENCY Mayday or Pan Pan 3 times On air to ground frequency in use Name of station addressed Aircraft identification Nature of distress/emergency Intentions of PIC Position, altitude and heading

14. Communication failure 7600 Unlawful interference 7500 If dual VHF then monitor 121.5 is suggested in AIP SAR 4.2 Radar alerting manoeuvres EMERGENCY RONLYNORDO

15. Some Types of Distress MAYDAY Urgency PAN Safety Security National Security CIRVIS

16. ELT Emergency Locator Transmitter SAR Search and Rescue SARSAT & COSPAS Search and Rescue Satellites Test ELT – first 5 minutes of hour, no more than 5 seconds In error – call 121.5, 126.7 or HF5680khz MANOT Missing aircraft Notice

20. ELT behind cargo compartment

21. ELT antenna & position placard

22. VHF Direction Finding Service Provides directional assistance An aid in times of difficulty SVFR aircraft will not be given VDF steers Provided when requested by the pilot, or suggested by the VDF operator and accepted by the pilot

23. Communication Problems Stuck mike Two on at once Radio failure -out of the zone -entering the zone -in the circuit NORDO RONLY

24. Communication Failures (602.138) Where there is a two-way radio communication failure between the ATC unit and a VFR aircraft while operating in Class B, C, or D airspace, the PIC shall: a) leave the airspace i) where the airspace is a control zone, by landing at the aerodrome for which the control zone is established ii) in any other case, by the shortest route

25. Communication Failures (602.138) Where there is a two-way radio communication failure between the ATC unit and a VFR aircraft while operating in Class B, C, or D airspace, the PIC shall: b) squawk 7600 on the transponder (if the aircraft is equipped with one) c) inform ATC (as soon as possible) of the actions taken

26. Emergency Radio Capability (602.143) No person shall operate an aircraft equipped with two-way VFR radio communication equipment unless it is capable of providing communication on VHF frequency 121.50 MHz.

27. Interception Signals (602.114) No person shall give an interception signal or an instruction to land except: a) a peace officer, an officer of police authority or an officer of the Canadian Forces b) a person authorized to do so by the Minister

28. Light Gun Signals - FLIGHT

32. VFR Transponder Operation 12,500’ and below – 1200 Above 12,500’ – 1400 Emergency – 7700 Other codes assigned by TRSA or a tower “Squawk 5670” “Ident” “Squawk standby” Turn to standby when re-selecting a code
