What two conditions must be present for structural ice to form? - ANSWERS1. Visible moisture
2. Aircraft surface temperature below freezing
What are the three kinds of structural icing & how do they form? - ANSWERS1. Clear (most dangerous) -
forms when large supercooled drops freeze slowly, -10° to 0° C, smooth
2. Rime - forms when small supercooled drops freeze quickly, -10°C to -20°C, rough & opaque
3. Mixed - clear & rime form simultaneously
Types of fog & how they form - ANSWERS-Advection: wind pushes warm, moist air over colder
land/water.
,-Upslope: Moist, stable air being cooled as it's blown upslope.
-Steam: cold, dry air moves over relatively warm water.
If you loose coms what do you do? - ANSWERSTrouble shoot first - stay predictable
legally you fly to your clearance limit but can implement 91.3 for emergency
7600

What is RAIM? - ANSWERSReceiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring is a self monitoring system used to
verify the usability of the received GPS signals and warns the pilot of any malfunction in the navigation
system. 4 satellite needed for 3D, 5 for fault detection, 6 for fault exclusion.
