Mandatory instruction sign.
Mandatory instruction signs have a red background with a white inscription and are used to denote an entrance to a runway or critical area, and areas where an aircraft is prohibited from entering.
6) Which service is provided for IFR arrivals by a FSS located on an airport without a control tower?
Airport advisories.
8) Which runway marking indicates a displaced threshold on an instrument runway?
Arrows leading to the threshold mark.
12) Which of the following indications would a pilot see while approaching to land on a runway served by a 2 bar VASI?
If departing to the high side of the glidepath, the far bars will change from red to white.
15) The primary purpose of runway end identifier lights, installed at many airfields, is to provide
rapid identification of the approach end of the runway during reduced visibility.
16) (Refer to figure 94.) What colors are runway holding position signs?
White with a red background.
Unless a higher angle is required for obstacle clearance, what is the normal glidepath for a 3 bar VASI?
3.0�
19) Which type of runway lighting consists of a pair of synchronized flashing lights, one on each side of the runway threshold?
REILs are installed at many airfields to provide rapid and positive identification of the approach end of a particular runway. The system consists of a pair of synchronized flashing lights located laterally on each side of the runway threshold.
20) When on the proper glidepath of a 2 bar VASI, the pilot will see the near bar as
white and the far bar as red.
When on the proper glide path of a 2 bar VASI, the pilot will see the near bar as white and the far bar as red. "Red over white, you're alright.
21) Tricolor Visual Approach Indicators normally consist of
a single unit, projecting a three color visual approach path.
22) The middle and far bars of a 3 bar VASI will
constitute a 2 bar VASI for using the upper glidepath.
24) The 'runway hold position' sign denotes
an entrance to runway from a taxiway
27) When turning onto a taxiway from another taxiway, the 'taxiway directional sign' indicates
designation and direction of taxiway leading out of an intersection.
What night operations, if any, are authorized between the approach end of the runway and the threshold lights?
Taxi and takeoff operations are permitted, providing the takeoff operations are toward the visible green threshold lights.
Unless a higher angle is necessary for obstacle clearance, what is the normal glidepath angle for a 2 bar VASI?
3.00�.
31) If a control tower and an FSS are located on the same airport, which function is provided by the FSS during those periods when the tower is closed?
Airport Advisory Service.
32) (Refer to figure 94.) Mandatory airport instruction signs are designated by having
white lettering with a red background.
