Key Facts: BR-ANAC-R-CPA Exam

Administered by Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) on behalf of ANAC across computerized testing locations in Brazil.

Consists of a single 20-question paper covering air law, VFR flight rules, airspace structure, and RBAC 61/91 regulations for aerodesport aircraft.

Passing requirement is 70% (at least 14 correct answers out of 20 questions) within a 30-minute time limit.

Required under RBAC 61.45(k)(2) for validation, conversion, or revalidation of Aerodesport Pilot (CPA) privileges.

Note: Official ANAC examinations are conducted in Portuguese. This bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation.

This bank provides 100 English-language practice questions for the official ANAC R-CPA theoretical exam in Brazil (Regulamentos, ênfase VFR for Aerodesport Pilot certificate conversion/revalidation under RBAC 61 and RBAC 91).

Sample BR-ANAC-R-CPA Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the BR-ANAC-R-CPA exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1According to ANAC RBAC 61 Subpart K, what is the minimum age required for an applicant to be issued a Certificado de Piloto Aerodesportivo (CPA)?
A.18 years old
B.16 years old
C.21 years old
D.17 years old
Explanation: RBAC 61 Subpart K states that an applicant for a Certificado de Piloto Aerodesportivo (CPA) must be at least 18 years of age. Applicants under 18 cannot be issued a full CPA certificate. This age requirement ensures legal capacity and maturity for aerodesport flight operations.
2Under DECEA ICA 100-12, what is the minimum flight visibility required for Visual Flight Rules (VFR) in Class G airspace at or below 10,000 ft AMSL?
A.8 km
B.1.5 km
C.5 km
D.3 km
Explanation: ICA 100-12 prescribes that the minimum flight visibility for VFR flights in Class G airspace at or below 10,000 ft AMSL is 5 km. Maintaining 5 km visibility guarantees adequate time for collision avoidance under visual rules. Below 3,000 ft AMSL or 1,000 ft AGL, specific lower limits may apply under continuous visual reference to the ground, but standard Class G VFR visibility is 5 km.
3According to ICA 100-12 (Semi-Circular Rule), what VFR cruising level rule applies when flying on a magnetic track between 000° and 179°?
A.Odd flight level plus 500 ft (e.g., FL 035, FL 055, FL 075)
B.Even flight level plus 500 ft (e.g., FL 045, FL 065, FL 085)
C.Any odd thousands of feet altitude (e.g., 3,000 ft, 5,000 ft)
D.Any even thousands of feet altitude (e.g., 4,000 ft, 6,000 ft)
Explanation: Under the semi-circular rule defined in ICA 100-12, VFR flights on magnetic tracks from 000° to 179° must cruise at odd flight levels plus 500 ft (e.g., FL 035, FL 055, FL 075). This provides a 500-foot vertical buffer from IFR flights cruising at whole odd levels. It ensures vertical separation between opposing traffic directions.
4What is the standard atmospheric pressure value used to calibrate altimeters to standard flight levels in Brazilian airspace?
A.1008.5 hPa (29.80 inHg)
B.1013.2 hPa (29.92 inHg)
C.1000.0 hPa (29.50 inHg)
D.1015.0 hPa (30.00 inHg)
Explanation: Standard atmospheric pressure setting is 1013.2 hectopascals (hPa), equivalent to 29.92 inches of mercury (inHg). When climbing through the Transition Altitude, pilots set 1013.2 hPa on their altimeter subscale to display Flight Levels (FL). This standard reference ensures all aircraft above the transition layer measure vertical position from a uniform datum.
5Under RBAC 91, what is the minimum required fuel reserve for a day VFR flight in an aerodesport aircraft?
A.15 minutes at normal cruising fuel consumption
B.60 minutes at normal cruising fuel consumption
C.30 minutes at normal cruising fuel consumption
D.45 minutes at normal cruising fuel consumption
Explanation: RBAC 91.151 mandates that for day VFR operations, an aircraft must carry enough fuel to fly to the intended destination plus a minimum reserve of 30 minutes at normal cruising speed. This reserve accounts for unforeseen holding or minor route diversions. Operating below this 30-minute day VFR reserve is a regulatory violation.
6What is the minimum required fuel reserve for night VFR flights under RBAC 91 for aerodesport aircraft cleared for night operation?
A.20 minutes at normal cruising speed
B.45 minutes at normal cruising speed
C.30 minutes at normal cruising speed
D.60 minutes at normal cruising speed
Explanation: Under RBAC 91.151, night VFR flights require a minimum fuel reserve of 45 minutes after reaching the destination aerodrome. Night navigation carries higher risks of visual disorientation or aerodrome weather changes, justifying the extended reserve. Pilots must calculate this 45-minute fuel buffer prior to departure.
7Which altimeter setting provides the altitude above mean sea level (MSL) when set on the aircraft altimeter subscale?
A.QFE
B.QNE
C.QFF
D.QNH
Explanation: QNH is the barometric pressure setting adjusted to mean sea level according to standard atmosphere. When QNH is set on the altimeter subscale, the altimeter indicates altitude above Mean Sea Level (MSL). When on the ground at an aerodrome, the altimeter will indicate the published elevation of that aerodrome.
8What is the standard Mode A transponder code for an aircraft operating VFR in uncontrolled Brazilian airspace when no specific code has been assigned by ATC?
A.2000
B.7700
C.7000
D.1200
Explanation: In accordance with Brazilian ICA 100-12 and DECEA standards, code 7000 is the standard VFR squawk code in uncontrolled airspace when ATC has not assigned a specific transponder code. (Note: Code 1200 is used in FAA jurisdiction, whereas Brazil follows ICAO/DECEA standard 7000). Code 7000 allows radar monitoring systems to identify visual flights.
9In the absence of specific local regulations or visual signals, in which direction must all turns be made in an aerodrome traffic circuit?
A.At the pilot's discretion based on wind direction
B.Straight-in without turns
C.To the left (Left-hand circuit)
D.To the right (Right-hand circuit)
Explanation: ICA 100-12 establishes that unless otherwise published in the AIP/ROTAER or indicated by ground signals/ATC, all turns in an aerodrome traffic circuit must be made to the left. Standard left-hand traffic ensures standardized flight paths and prevents mid-air collisions. Pilots must conform to left turns unless right-hand traffic is explicitly specified.
10Which Brazilian military/civil organization is responsible for investigating aeronautical accidents and promoting accident prevention (SIP AER)?
A.CENIPA (Centro de Investigação e Prevenção de Acidentes Aeronáuticos)
B.ANAC (Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil)
C.DECEA (Departamento de Controle do Espaço Aéreo)
D.INFRAERO (Empresa Brasileira de Infraestrutura Aeroportuária)
Explanation: CENIPA (Centro de Investigação e Prevenção de Acidentes Aeronáuticos) is the Brazilian authority responsible for investigating civil and military aviation accidents and serious incidents under the SIPAER system. Its main objective is accident prevention rather than establishing legal liability. ANAC regulates civil aviation, while DECEA manages airspace control.
