IRA written test 2023;actual exam with complete solution
You are flying IFR in controlled airspace when your No. 1 VOR receiver malfunctions.
However, your No. 2 VOR receiver is not affected. What should you do?
Report the malfunction immediately to ATC.
How can the pilot determine, for an ILS runway equipped with MALSR, that there may
be a penetration of the obstacle identification surfaces (OIS), and care should be taken
in the visual segment to avoid any obstacles?
The published visibility for the ILS is no lower than 3/4 SM.
While cruising at 190 knots, you wish to establish a climb at 160 knots. When entering
the climb (full panel), it would be proper to make the initial pitch change by increasing
back elevator pressure until the
attitude indicator shows the approximate pitch attitude appropriate for the 160 knot
climb.
To turn to the left from a heading of 90° to a heading of 300°, assuming a standard rate
turn, how much time would your turn take?
50 seconds
When on a VFR on Top clearance, the cruising altitude is based on
magnetic course
What are the local standard time hours of operation for the control tower at Santa
Barbara Muni (SBA)?
0600 - 2300
The precipitation type forecast to occur over southern ND (area C) is:
Freezing Rain.
Which illustration depicts a 'slightly low' (2.8°) indication?
11
to ensure proper airspace protection while in a holding pattern, what is the maximum
airspeed above 14,000 feet for civil turbojet aircraft?
265 knots.
When using GPS for navigation and instrument approaches, any required alternate
airport must have
an approved operational instrument approach procedure other than GPS.
During a takeoff into IFR conditions with low ceilings, when should the pilot contact
departure control?
When advised by the tower.
As a rule of thumb, altitude corrections of less than 100 feet should be corrected by
using a
half bar width on the attitude indicator.
You arrive at your destination airport on an IFR flight plan. Which is a prerequisite
condition for the performance of a contact approach?
Clear of clouds and at least 1 SM flight visibility
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate
turn to the left from a north heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right.
What is the height of the tropopause over the northwest United States?

, 45,000' MSL

"450" is enclosed in a rectangle indicating a height of 45,000 feet MSL
Which condition would cause the altimeter to indicate a lower altitude than actually
flown (true altitude)?
Air temperature warmer than standard.

When air is warmer than standard, you are higher than the altimeter indicates. Thus the
altimeter is indicating lower than what you actually are.
When is radar service terminated during a visual approach?
Automatically when ATC instructs the pilot to contact the tower.
How should you preflight check the altimeter prior to an IFR flight?
Set the altimeter to the current altimeter setting. The indication should be within 75 feet
of the actual elevation for acceptable accuracy.
A common type of ground or surface based temperature inversion is that which is
produced by
ground radiation on clear, cool nights when the wind is light.
You have not yet been cleared for the approach, but you are being vectored to the ILS
approach course. It is clear that you will pass through the localizer course unless you
take action. You should
continue as assigned and inform ATC that you are crossing the final approach course.
What is your position with reference to FALSE intersection (V222) if your VOR receivers
indicate as shown?
South of V222 and east of FALSE intersection.

VOR #1 is tuned to BPT and indicates the aircraft is to the left (south) of V222. VOR #2
is tuned to DAS, R-139, and indicates the aircraft is east of the radial. The radial is east
of FALSE intersection, therefore the aircraft is east of FALSE.
In turbulent air, the faster you go in a light airplane the:
Greater the effect of the turbulence on the airplane.
It's a good practice to announce your intentions on UNICOM at a nontowered airport
before:
Taxiing and before taxiing on the runway.
Which is an acceptable range of accuracy when performing an operational check of
dual VOR's using one system against the other?
4.
What is the floor of Class A airspace?
18,000' MSL
Aircraft being operated under IFR are required to have, in addition to the equipment
required for VFR and night, at least
a slip skid indicator.
You are making the S-LDA 6 approach at Roanoke Regional. What is your minimum
altitude crossing RAMKE intersection?
4300.

Find RAMKE on the profile view. It shows a minimum altitude of 4300 feet MSL.
