be offset feet to the left of the new centerline.: 2
2. What is used as a guide for centerline painting?: traffic cones or paint marks
3. A "T" clear zone is laid out to mark .: A
runway crater

side of the MOS facing the Primary Operational Threshold.: -
right, toward
6. The MOS is likely to expand in both length and width when: more craters are repaired
7. What is the best reason not to drive or step on freshly painted airfield lines?: It creates extra
or confusing lines on the new MOS
8. What is the next step in the installation process once the necessary prepa-rations are
accomplished to provide the PAPI units with a base at the proper elevation?: The PAPI unit locations must be
verified using a surveying instrument
