In SAR and Airspace classifications I presume they wanted to know the clearances / applicability of the airspace classifications for SAR

hello guys , i have a quick question, when our a/c and other a/c both have tcas 2 and mode c( in 1 a/c) and mode s( in another a/c), it gives TA+RA, now when both the a/c have tcas2 and mode s, it gives complementary RA using the datalink system ..what does this mean? how does this differs from the 1st case, besides tht it inform the ground controller automatically. thanks in advance...

[livetokill22]

Please post the questions for this attempt here as well and what topics to study for delhi attempt.

hey guys , can some tell me about RVSM contigencies, both due to the weather and due to equipment failure

[Sunny Raja]

when our a/c and other a/c both have tcas 2 and mode c( in 1 a/c) and mode s( in another a/c), it gives TA+RA, now when both the a/c have tcas2 and mode s, it gives complementary RA using the datalink system ..what does this mean? how does this differs from the 1st case, besides tht it inform the ground controller automatically.

It means that the TCAS of both the ac will give complimentary manouvering advice to both the ac so that there is no conflict. This is specially important where both the aircraft are at the same level and the warning has to be coordinated so that one climbs while the other descends

[Sunny Raja]

RVSM eqpt contingencies

Non availablity of two independent altitude measurement systems
AUTOPILOT failures causing inabilty of height hold
failure of altitude alert systems
TCAS failure
Transponder Mode C failure`

I am not aware of any weather contingencies

[Sunny Raja]

FAF for CANPA

The DGCA circular on CANPA says that if no FAF is designated for a profile then to carry out CANPA there is aneed to create pseudo FAF with a 3 deg glidepath. My doubt is what distance do we create this pseudo FAF?
