Q1. Concerning the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) :
No protection is available against aircraft not equipped with a serviceable SSR transponder
Q2. On a TCAS2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System), a corrective “resolution advisory” (RA) is a “resolution advisory”:
asking the pilot to modify effectively the vertical speed of his aircraft.
Q3. On a TCAS 2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) the preventive “resolution advisory” (RA) is a “resolution advisory”:
that advises the pilot to avoid certain deviations from the current vertical rate but does not require any change to be made to that rate.
Q4. When the intruding aircraft is equipped with a serviceable mode C transponder, the TCAS II (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) generates a :
“traffic advisory” and vertical “resolution advisory”.
Q5. The TCAS 2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) provides : 1- traffic information (TA: Traffic Advisory) 2- horizontal resolution (RA: Resolution Advisory) 3- vertical resolution (RA: Resolution Advisory) 4- ground proximity warning The combination regrouping all the correct statements is:
1, 3
Q6. A “TCAS II” (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) provides:
the intruder relative position and possibly an indication of a collision avoidance manoeuvre within the vertical plane only.
Q7. The TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) is a proximity alarm system which detects a “traffic” when the conflicting traffic is equipped with a :
serviceable SSR transponder
Q8. The use of the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) for avoiding an aircraft in flight is now general. TCAS uses for its operation :
the replies from the transponders of other aircraft
Q9. An “intruding traffic advisory” is represented on the display system of the TCAS 2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) by displaying :
a yellow full circle.
Q10. A “close traffic advisory” is displayed on the display device of the TCAS 2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) by :
a blue or white empty lozenge.
Q11. The TCAS II data display devices can be in the form of: 1- a specific dedicated screen 2- a screen combined with the weather radar 3- a variometer represented on a liquid crystal screen which allows the display of Traffic Advisory (TA) and Resolution Advisory (RA) 4- an EFIS (Electronic Flight Instrument System) screen The combination regrouping all the correct statements is:
1, 2, 3 and 4.
Q12. The principle of the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems) is based on the use of :
transponders fitted in the aircraft
Q13. A “resolution advisory” (RA) is represented on the display system of the TCAS 2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) by a :
red full square.
Q14. The TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) gives avoidance resolutions :
only in the vertical plane
Q15. When the intruding aircraft is equipped with a transponder without altitude reporting capability, the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) issues a :
“traffic advisory” only.
Q16. The TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) computer receives information : 1- about the pressure altitude through the mode S transponder 2- from the radio-altimeter 3- specific to the airplane configuration 4- from the inertial units The combination regrouping all the correct statements is:
1, 2, 2003
Q17. In the event of a conflict, the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) will give information such as :
climb/descent
Q18. The TCAS 1 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) provides : 1- traffic information 2- horizontal resolution (RA: Resolution Advisory) 3- vertical resolution (RA: Resolution Advisory) 4- ground proximity warning The combination regrouping all the correct statements is:
1
