Define Clear Air Turbulence (CAT)
Give this one a try later!
Clear-air turbulence (CAT) is the turbulent movement of air masses in the
absence of any visual cues such as clouds, and is caused when bodies of
air moving at widely different speeds meet
,How does GPS work?
Give this one a try later!
GPS navigation utilizes ground based monitoring and control stations
along with A constellation of over 30 Navstar Satellites.
How does the use of engine anti-ice affect performance?
Give this one a try later!
Decreases performance.
How can the dispatcher determine which kinds of navigation systems can be used for
a flight?

approved for the aircraft and what the flight route necessitates
What is VFR? (Ceiling/visibility)
Give this one a try later!
Visual flight rules. More than 1000 ft ceiling and 3 miles or greater visibility.
,How often are convective SIGMETs issued?
What are the locations?
How long are they good for?
Give this one a try later!
Convective SIGMETs issued every hour. If there are none, it will say none.
Locations: Western Central East.
Valid for 2 hours.
