1) Which of the following formula is correct for the calculation of maximum range?
A) Maximum Range = Safe Fuel available x Specific Range
B) Maximum Range = Block Fuel x Specific Range
C) Maximum Range = Block Fuel / Specific Range
D) Maximum Range = Safe Fuel available / Specific Range

2) An aircraft at FL310, M 0,83, temperature -30 °C, is required to reduce speed in order to
cross a reporting point five minutes later than planned. Assuming that a zero wind
component remains unchanged, when 360 NM from the reporting point Mach number should
be reduced to:
A) M 0.76 B) M 0.74 C) M 0.78 D) M 0.80

3) An aircraft at FL370, M 0,86, OAT -44 °C, headwind com-ponent 110 kts, is required to
reduce speed in order to cross a reporting point 5 min later than planned. If the speed
reduction were to be made 420 NM from the report-ing point, what Mach number is
required?
A) M 0.79 B) M 0.73 C) M 0.75 D) M 0.81

4) Given: ETA to cross a meridian: 21:00 UTC; GS: 441 kts; TAS: 491 kts
At 20:10 UTC, ATC requests a speed reduction to cross the meridian at 21:05 UTC. The
reduction to TAS will be approximately:
A) 60 kts B) 90 kts C) 75 kts D) 40 kts

5) Halfway between two reporting points the navigation log gives the following information:
TA S: 360 kts; W/V. 330°/80 kts; Compass heading: 237°; Deviation on this
heading: -5°; Variation: 19°W. What is the average groundspeed for this leg?
A) 360 kts B) 354 kts C) 373 kts D) 403 kts

6) You leave A to fly to B (475 NM away) at 10:00 hours. Your ETA at B is 11:30. At 10:40
you are 190 NM from A. What ground speed is required from now on to arrive on time at B?
A) 317 knots. B) 330 knots. C) 342 knots. D) 360 knots.

7) Given: Distance A to B: 415 NM; Planned GS: 295 kts; ATD: 10:00 UTC
At 10:20 UTC fix is obtained 110 NM along track. What GS must be maintained from the fix
in order to achieve planned ETA at B?
A) 320 kts B) 268 kts C) 295 kts D) 286 kts

8) An aircraft at FL140, IAS 210 kts, OAT -5 °C and wind component minus 35 kts, is required
to reduce speed in order to cross a reporting point 5 min later than planned. Assuming that
flight conditions do not change, when 150 NM from the reporting point the IAS should be
reduced by:
A) 25 kts B) 20 kts C) 30 kts D) 15 kts

9) An aircraft at FL120, IAS 200 kts, OAT -5° and wind component +30 kts, is required to
reduce speed in order to cross a reporting point 5 min later than planned. Assuming flight
conditions do not change, when 100 NM from the reporting point IAS should be reduced to:
A) 169 kts B) 165 kts C) 159 kts D) 174 kts

10) An aircraft is planned to fly from position A to position B, distance 320 NM, at an average
GS of 180 kts. It departs A at 12:00 UTC. After flying 70 NM along track from A, the
aircraft is 3 min ahead of planned time. Using the actual GS experienced, what is the revised
ETA at B?
A) 1401 UTC B) 1333 UTC C) 1347 UTC D) 1340 UTC
