AT 305 Block 4 Exam
1. Before you provide radar service to an aircraft, you must establish and
radar identification: maintain
2. Navigational guidance, radar separation, and radar monitoring are referred to as .: radar
services
3. Which of the following is NOT a method used for primary radar identifica- tion?: IDENT
4. The term "radar contact" is used to inform another controller that the aircraft
is identified and .: approval is granted for the aircraft to enter the receiving
controller's airspace
5. An aircraft has reported over a fix that is displayed on the video map and the observed track is

he/she is in radar contact. This
identification method is .: position correlation

8. Consider an auto-acquired ARTS target as identified when the identity of the target has been
confirmed by the radar or identification procedure: - beacon
9. Questionable radar identification may occur due to any of the following circumstances
EXCEPT .: Lack of precipitation clutter
10.If radar identification of an aircraft becomes questionable for ANY reason, take immediate action
to re-identify or .: terminate radar service
11.Which controller has control of an aircraft after a point out has been approved?:
transferring controller
12.Before issuing control instructions to an aircraft within another con- troller's jurisdiction that will
change the aircraft's heading, route, speed, or altitude, ensure coordination has been accomplished
with .: the con- troller within whose area the control instructions will be issued 2.
the controller receiving the transfer of control
any intervening controller(s) through whose area the aircraft will pass
13. Automation capabilities may be used for BOTH point outs and handoffs.: -
true
14.When the term "Traffic" can be used in response or anticipation of a handoff or point out, but in
may also be used .: in conjunction
with a request for control of an aircraft.

15.You may use another controller's airspace:: When coordination has been completed with
the appropriate controller
16.Reference initiating a point out or handoff, the act of physically pointing to the target on the
receiving controllers RADAR display is unacceptable.: false
17. One method for receiving or giving a point out is voice communications: -
true
18.Ensure has been accomplished BEFORE you allow an aircraft to enter another
controller's airspace.: coordination
19.A handoff is an action taken to transfer the radar identification of an aircraft from one controller
to another controller if the aircraft will enter the receiving controller's airspace and radio
communications with the aircraft will be transferred.: true
20.What sequence is used to relay information to the receiving controller during point out or
handoff?: Position, aircraft identification, and assigned altitude (if applicable)
21.Confirm the identity of a primary target by .: advising the aircraft of its
position
22.Prior to approving a point out, the receiving controller ensures:_-Posi- tion corresponds with ,
or an association exists between a computer data block and the target being transferred.: position
given by transferring controller
23. A point out is an action taken by a controller to transfer the radar iden- tification of an
aircraft to another controller if the aircraft will or may en- ter the airspace or protected airspace of
another controller and radio and
.: communications will NOT be transferred.
24.Transfer Control of an Aircraft:: Either answer are correct - At a prescribed or coordinated
location, time, fix, altitude; or at the time a radar handoff and frequency change have been
accomplished when authorized by a facility directive/LOA which specifies the type and extent of
control that is transferred
25."Traffic observed" can never be used as is a term to inform the controller issuing the traffic
restrictions that the traffic is identified and that the restric- tions issued are understood and will be
complied with.: false
26."Traffic" is a term used by air traffic controllers to transfer radar identi- fication of an aircraft
to another controller for the purpose of coordinating separation action.: true
27."Point out approved" is a termed used to:: inform the controller initiating a point out that the
aircraft is identified and approval is granted for the aircraft to enter the receiving controller's
airspace, as coordinated, without a communications transfer.
