PRE-SOLO ACTUAL 2026 EXAM QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS RATED A+
✔✔Can a student pilot or recreational pilot request a SVFR clearance in class D
airspace when visibility is less than 3 SM - ✔✔No!- Student pilots are required to have
at lest 3 statue miles of visibility and have to fly with visual reference to the ground to
act as pilot in command.
✔✔You have called ATC prior to entering class C airspace, and the controller responds
with your call sign and tells you to "standby". Are you now allowed to enter this airspace

surface to 4000 feet AGL
10 NM radius outer core 1200 feet to 4000 feet AFL
Participation in radar service in the outer area is not mandatory.
✔✔Describe the class C bounders that effect your airport, and how you can use nav
aids to identify the outer and inner shell of the airpace. - ✔✔Nearest Class C is NAS
Pensacola, air apace is individually tailored to area, we could use GPS to monitor

when entering the inner ring.
✔✔ What is the traffic pattern for each runway at your airport? - ✔✔Left for both 18 and
36
✔✔What is the traffic pattern altitude - ✔✔1100 MSL
✔✔How do you enter and exit the traffic pattern at your airport? - ✔✔Enter the traffic
pattern from the left or right of runway. Enter down wind at a 45 degree angle if you are
approaching the airport from the left of the runway. If approaching from the right of the
runway, cross the runway between midfield and the departure end, then make a 90
degree turn to enter the down wind. Always enter the traffic pattern at pattern altitude of
1100 MSL, do not descend into the traffic pattern.
