1Under ANAC RBAC 61, what is the recency of experience requirement for a pilot to act as Pilot in Command (PIC) under IFR in an airplane?
A.Within the preceding 12 calendar months, completed an instrument flight review with an authorized instructor
B.Within the preceding 60 days, logged at least 6 hours of instrument flight time including 2 approaches
C.Within the preceding 6 calendar months, logged at least 6 instrument approaches, holding procedures, and tracking courses in actual or simulated IMC
D.Within the preceding 90 days, logged at least 3 instrument approaches and 3 hours of instrument flight time
Explanation: RBAC 61.213 establishes that to act as PIC under IFR, a pilot must have logged, within the preceding 6 calendar months in the same aircraft category, at least 6 instrument approaches, holding procedures, and course intercepting/tracking under actual or simulated instrument conditions.
2According to RBAC 91, when operating an airplane under IFR, what is the standard minimum fuel reserve required for a flight conducted under VFR vs IFR rules?
A.IFR flights require fuel to reach destination, then to alternate (if required), plus 45 minutes at normal cruising speed
B.IFR flights require fuel to reach destination plus 30 minutes at day cruise or 45 minutes at night cruise
C.IFR flights require fuel to reach destination plus 60 minutes reserve regardless of alternate requirement
D.IFR flights require fuel to reach destination, alternate, plus 15 minutes of reserve at holding speed
Explanation: RBAC 91.167 specifies that no person may start an IFR flight in an airplane unless it carries enough fuel to fly to the first airport of intended landing, fly from that airport to the alternate airport (if required), and fly thereafter for 45 minutes at normal cruising fuel consumption.
3What does the Minimum Enroute Altitude (MEA) guarantee along an IFR airway?
A.Adequate navigation signal reception and required obstacle clearance along the entire route segment
B.Obstacle clearance only within 22 NM of a VOR facility without signal coverage guarantee
C.Communication signal reception and radar vectoring clearance down to 500 feet AGL
D.RVSM separation clearance and terrain clearance over high mountainous terrain
Explanation: The MEA (Minimum Enroute Altitude) is the lowest published altitude between radio fixes that assures acceptable navigational signal coverage and meets obstacle clearance requirements between those fixes.
4What is the primary operational difference between a Decision Altitude (DA) and a Minimum Descent Altitude (MDA)?
A.MDA is referenced to height above threshold (HAT), whereas DA is referenced to sea level atmospheric pressure without altimeter setting
B.DA is referenced to MSL on a precision approach (or APV) where descent continues to missed approach point if visuals are not met, whereas MDA is the lowest altitude on a non-precision approach below which descent is not authorized without visual reference
C.MDA is used for ILS Category I approaches, while DA is used for VOR and NDB non-precision approaches
D.DA allows descent 200 feet below published minima during bad weather, whereas MDA strictly forbids any descent
Explanation: A Decision Altitude (DA) is specified on precision approaches (or APV) where a decision to land or execute a missed approach must be made immediately upon reaching DA. A Minimum Descent Altitude (MDA) is specified on non-precision approaches, below which the aircraft cannot descend until visual references are established.
5According to Brazilian air traffic rules (ICA 100-12 / DECEA), what semicircular cruising level rule applies to an IFR flight flying a magnetic track of 045° below FL290?
A.Odd flight levels plus 500 feet (e.g., FL055, FL075)
B.Even flight levels plus 500 feet (e.g., FL065, FL085)
C.Odd flight levels (e.g., FL050, FL070, FL090)
D.Even flight levels (e.g., FL060, FL080, FL100)
Explanation: For magnetic tracks between 000° and 179° (eastbound), IFR flights operate at odd flight levels (FL030, FL050, FL070, etc.).
6Under ICA 100-12, an IFR flight operating on a magnetic track of 250° below FL290 must select which type of cruising flight level?
A.Even flight levels plus 500 feet
B.Even flight levels (e.g., FL060, FL080, FL100)
C.Odd flight levels (e.g., FL050, FL070, FL090)
D.Any flight level assigned by ATC regardless of track
Explanation: For magnetic tracks between 180° and 359° (westbound), IFR flights operate at even flight levels (FL040, FL060, FL080, FL100, etc.).
7What is a Standard Instrument Departure (SID)?
A.A noise abatement arrival procedure leading to the final approach fix
B.A designated IFR departure route linking the aerodrome to a specified fix on the enroute airway structure
C.A visual departure procedure used by IFR aircraft when cloud ceiling is above 1,500 feet
D.A radar vectoring protocol used exclusively during engine-out emergency procedures
Explanation: A SID (Standard Instrument Departure) is a published ATC IFR departure procedure that provides obstacle clearance and transitions an aircraft from the terminal area to the enroute structure.
8What is a Standard Terminal Arrival (STAR)?
A.A designated IFR arrival route linking an enroute fix to a point in the terminal area from which an approach can be executed
B.A runway lighting system activated by radio clicks for night instrument landings
C.A mandatory holding pattern procedure executed before entering controlled airspace
D.A visual approach transition procedure available only during daylight VMC
Explanation: A STAR (Standard Terminal Arrival) is a published IFR route connecting an enroute fix to an initial approach fix or point in the terminal control area.
9Under RBAC 91.167, what additional cruise fuel reserve must an airplane carry after destination and alternate on an IFR flight?
A.45 minutes at normal cruising speed
B.20 minutes at normal cruising speed
C.30 minutes at normal cruising speed
D.10 minutes of holding only
Explanation: RBAC 91.167(a)(3)(i) requires airplanes to carry an additional 45 minutes at normal cruising speed after flying to the destination and then to the alternate. Helicopters use 30 minutes under (a)(3)(ii).
10What is the standard vertical separation minimum applied between IFR aircraft operating above FL290 in NON-RVSM airspace in Brazil?
A.500 feet
B.2,000 feet
C.1,000 feet
D.4,000 feet
Explanation: In non-RVSM airspace above FL290, standard vertical separation between aircraft is 2,000 feet.
