1, 3
Q2. An “intruding traffic advisory” is represented on the display system of the TCAS 2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) by displaying :
a yellow full circle.
Q3. Concerning the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) :
No protection is available against aircraft not equipped with a serviceable SSR transponder
Q4. The principle of the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems) is based on the use of :
transponders fitted in the aircraft
Q5. 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
Q6. 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
Q7. 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”.
Q8. 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.
Q9. The TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) gives avoidance resolutions :
only in the vertical plane
Q10. In the event of a conflict, the TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) will give information such as :
climb/descent
Q11. 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.
Q12. 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.
Q13. 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.
Q14. A “resolution advisory” (RA) is represented on the display system of the TCAS 2 (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) by a :
red full square.
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 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
Q17. 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
Q18. 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.
