FAA Electronic Navigation Exam 2

Can a GPS be used as an altimeter?

A. No, there can be too many errors in the vertical height computations of the GPS to rely on it as an altimeter.

B. Yes, but only if a barometric altimeter is available as a backup.

C. Yes.

Correct! Wrong!

23. A GPS with an expired database may be used

A. under no circumstances.

B. only on the ground for taxi.

C. under VFR flight for situational awareness.

Correct! Wrong!

(Refer to Legend 1) Which of the symbols depicted with a hexagon represents a VOR-DME?

(Refer to Figure 25, area 5.) The VOR is tuned to the Ranger VORTAC. The omnibearing selector (OBS) is set on 256°, with a TO indication, and a left course deviation indicator (CDI) deflection. What is the aircraft’s position from the VORTAC?

A. East-Northeast.

B. East-Southeast.

C. West-Northwest.

Correct! Wrong!

When the CDI needle is centered during an airborne VOR check, the omnibearing selector and the TO/FROM indicator should read

0° TO, only if you are due south of the VOR.

within 4° of the selected radial.

within 6° of the selected radial.

Correct! Wrong!

When the course deviation indicator (CDI) needle is centered using a VOR test signal (VOT), the omnibearing selector (OBS) and the TO/FROM indicator should read

A. 180° FROM, only if the pilot is due north of the VOT.

B. 0° TO or 180° FROM, regardless of the pilot’s position from the VOT.

C. 0° FROM or 180° TO, regardless of the pilot’s position from the VOT.

Correct! Wrong!

If Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) capability is lost in-flight,

A. the pilot may still rely on GPS derived altitude for vertical information.

B. the pilot has no assurance of the accuracy of the GPS position.

C. GPS position is reliable provided at least 3 GPS satellites are available.

Correct! Wrong!

(Refer to Legend 1) What symbol would indicate a VORTAC location on an airport?

A. A hexagon with a dot in the middle.

B. A runway configuration with a dot.

C. A circle with a dot in the center.

Correct! Wrong!

What should you take into account before utilizing a handheld GPS for VFR navigation?

All throughout the flight, RAIM capability will be maintained.

Even if the database is outdated, the waypoints will still be correct.

Without warning, position accuracy may deteriorate.

Correct! Wrong!

Please see Figure 42. Which OMNI signal would you get for flight 8?
