IFR Check Ride Questions and Answers
| Latest Update | 2024/2025 | Graded A+
What does it mean to "fly by reference to instruments"?


✔✔Flying by reference to instruments means operating the aircraft primarily using instruments

for navigation and control, especially when visibility is limited.




How can a pilot prepare for unexpected weather changes during an IFR flight?


✔✔A pilot can prepare by continuously monitoring weather updates, having an alternate route

planned, and being familiar with diversion procedures.




What is the purpose of a power-off stall in instrument training?


✔✔The power-off stall assesses a pilot's ability to recognize and recover from a stall situation

without engine power, simulating an emergency scenario.




What are the primary tasks during a transition from en-route to approach phase?


✔✔Primary tasks include reviewing the approach plate, configuring the aircraft for landing, and

communicating with air traffic control for clearance and instructions.




1

,What is the significance of maintaining a proper scan pattern of instruments?


✔✔A proper scan pattern ensures that the pilot effectively monitors all critical instruments,

reducing the risk of missing important information during flight.




What is the role of the cockpit resource management (CRM) in IFR operations?


✔✔CRM enhances teamwork and communication among crew members, fostering better

decision-making and problem-solving in the cockpit during instrument operations.




How do pilots ensure they meet the required minimums for an approach?


✔✔Pilots verify the approach plate for specific visibility and altitude minimums and confirm

they meet those criteria before proceeding.




What are some common reasons for a missed approach?


✔✔Common reasons for a missed approach include poor visibility, a runway obstruction, or

receiving instructions from air traffic control to go around.




What is the difference between controlled and uncontrolled airspace?




2

,✔✔Controlled airspace requires pilots to communicate with air traffic control, while

uncontrolled airspace does not have active ATC oversight, allowing for more freedom in

navigation.




How do pilots utilize radio navigation aids during an IFR flight?


✔✔Pilots use radio navigation aids, such as VORs and NDBs, to determine their position and

navigate accurately along designated airways.




What does the term "squawk" mean in aviation communication?


✔✔"Squawk" refers to setting the transponder code assigned by air traffic control for

identification and tracking purposes during flight.




What is the procedure for filing an IFR flight plan?


✔✔Filing an IFR flight plan involves submitting route information, departure and destination

points, and any alternate airports to air traffic control before departure.




How does one maintain situational awareness in busy airspace?


✔✔Maintaining situational awareness involves continuously monitoring instruments, listening to

communications, and being aware of other traffic and environmental factors.


3

, What is the function of the engine instruments during an IFR flight?


✔✔Engine instruments provide crucial information about engine performance, including RPM,

temperature, and fuel flow, helping pilots manage aircraft performance.




What steps should a pilot take in the event of an electrical failure?


✔✔In the event of an electrical failure, a pilot should switch to backup instruments, conserve

battery power, and communicate with air traffic control regarding the situation.




What is a standard approach procedure?


✔✔A standard approach procedure is a predefined route and series of maneuvers that pilots

follow to safely transition from en route flight to landing.




How do pilots use a course deviation indicator (CDI)?


✔✔Pilots use a CDI to determine their lateral position relative to the desired course, adjusting

heading as necessary to stay on track.




What is the purpose of a checklist during an IFR flight?
