Essential traffic is that controlled traffic to which the provision of
separation by ATC is applicable, but which, in relation to a particular
controlled flight, is not separated therefrom by the prescribed minima.
Quote:
An AIRPROX is a situation in which, in the opinion of a pilot or air
traffic services personnel, the distance between aircraft as well as their
relative positions and speed have been such that the safety of the
aircraft involved may have been compromised. (ICAO Doc 4444:
PANS-ATM). An AIRPROX should be reported as soon as possible to
facilitate investigation of the incident. If circumstances allow, the pilot
should report the incident immediately to ATC using RTF, the details
will then be reported by ATC to the appropriate body. If it is not
possible to report an AIRPROX in flight (e.g. because the frequency in
use is too busy) the pilot should report the incident as soon as possible
after landing. ATS units to whom AIRPROX incidents are reported
should also report the circumstances of which they are aware to the
appropriate body. In all cases, initial verbal reports should be followed
up by full written reports using any prescribed form which may be in
use for that purpose.
The separation method whereby the vertical and horizontal separation may
be reduced till a maximum of half the standard criteria is called:
Composite separation
Combined separation
Reduced separation
Essential separation
National agreements
Bilateral agreements
Regional air navigation agreements
ATC co-ordination
Quote:
Such a clearance applies only to Controlled Airspaces Class D and E,
in Visual Meteorological Conditions during hours of daylight

ICAO PANS ATM 5.9 states that:
The VMC and own separation ATC clearance is used for a controlled flight
to cross the level of another controlled flight when:
Angular difference between tracks of less than 45 degrees or more than 315
degrees
Angular difference between tracks of more than 135 degrees or less than 225
degrees
Angular difference between tracks of more than 45 degrees but not
exceeding 135 degrees
None of the answers are correct
Quote:
If two aircraft are not laterally separated, and are following tracks
within 45 degrees of each other (or the reciprocal), then they are said
to be following the same route and some form of longitudinal
separation must exist. Aircraft whose tracks bisect at more than 45
degrees are said to be crossing, in this case longitudinal separation
cannot be applied as it will not be very long before lateral separation
will exist again.
Lateral Separation
Two aircraft are reporting over the same VOR, they should be separated by:
Track separation between aircraft using the same NDB shall be applied
requiring the aircraft to fly: At least 30 degrees separated at a distance of 15
NM or more from the facility
Track separation between aircraft using the same FIX shall be applied
requiring the aircraft to fly:
Track separation between aircraft using the same navigation aid requires the
aircraft to fly a specific track separated by a minimum amount. When
using Dead Reckoning this minimum amount is:
the missed approach track for one approach diverges by at least 20 degrees from
the missed approach track of the adjacent approach
the missed approach track for one approach diverges by at least 30 degrees
from the missed approach track of the adjacent approach
the missed approach track for one approach diverges by at least 25 degrees from
the missed approach track of the adjacent approach
the missed approach track for one approach diverges by at least 45 degrees from
the missed approach track of the adjacent approach
until two minutes before the arriving aircraft is estimated to be over the
instrument runway
until three minutes before the arriving aircraft is estimated to be over the
instrument runway
until five minutes before the arriving aircraft is estimated to be over the
instrument runway
until ten minutes before the arriving aircraft is estimated to be over the
instrument runway
Longitudinal Separation
The longitudinal separation minima based on distance using DME, and each
aircraft on track uses DME stations, is:
5 NM
10 NM
20 NM
20 NM when the leading aircraft maintains a true airspeed of 20 kt or more
faster than the succeeding aircraft
Quote:
With aircraft on the same track, separation is 20 nm provided each
aircraft uses "on-track" DME stations and separation is checked by
obtaining simultaneous DME readings from the aircraft at frequent
intervals. This can be reduced to 10 nm provided the leading aircraft
maintains a TAS 20 kts or more faster than the succeeding aircraft.
The longitudinal separation minima based on DME, and each aircraft 'on
track' uses DME stations, is:
Quote:
Dont get confused with the 40 kt option in the question as that is
related with timed separation. With DME its 20 kts and 10nm

What is the longitudinal separation between aircraft on the same route, the
preceding aircraft is 20 kts faster than the following?

Separation can be further reduced to 5 minutes if the preceding aircraft
is 20kts or more faster than the following aircraft or 3 minutes if the
preceding aircraft is 40kts or more than the following aircraft
providing the aircraft have departed from the same aerodrome or
reported over the same reporting point

When an aircraft will pass through the level of another aircraft on the same
track the following longitudinal separation shall be provided:
5 minutes while vertical separation does not exist provided that the level
change is commenced within 10 minutes of the time the second aircraft has
reported over an exact reporting point.

same on track way point. This minimum is:

Specified: For aircraft cruising, climbing, or descending on the same
track in an RNP RNAV environment, the separation standard may be

pilot/controller communications exist (not through a radio operator);
procedural position reports are received that permit distance
verification between aircraft every 30 minutes.
