7110 Chapter 1
"Should"
means a procedure is recommended
Duty Priority
a. Give first priority to separating aircraft and issuing safety alerts
b. Provide support to national security and homeland defense activities
c. Provide and/or solicit weather information
d. Provide additional services
Unless agreed to by the pilot, do not issue downwind takeoffs if the tailwind _________________
exceeds 5 knots
IFR clearance items
ACSRAMHAF
2 h60's departing runway 32 from Bravo taxiway
Ensure the second H60 does not begin takeoff roll until The other aircraft has departed and crossed the runway end or turned to avert any conflict.
When the succeeding aircraft is a helicopter, visual separation may be applied
"OPPOSITE/RECIPROCAL COURSES"
are courses whose protected airspaces are coincident, overlap, or intersect and whose angular difference is greater than 135 degrees through 180 degrees inclusive
OPERATIONAL PRIORITY:
Difference between MEDEVAC and AIR EVAC/HOSP
Always provide priority handling to MEDEVAC
Provide priority handling to AIR EVAC and HOSP flights when verbally requested by the pilot
slow speed above the surface, normally below 20 knots and in ground effect
Hover Taxi
phraseology to respond to a pilot's cancellation of his/her IFR flight plan
"(Call sign) IFR CANCELLATION RECEIVED"
C130 landing runway 32 following an h60 landing runway 32
ensure the C130 does not cross the landing threshold until The H60 has landed and is clear of the runway
"Altitude"
means indicated altitude mean sea level (MSL), flight level (FL), or both.
Record with the PIREPs:
1. Time.
2. Aircraft position.
3. Type aircraft.
4. Altitude.
5. When the PIREP involves icing include:
(a) Icing type and intensity.
(b) Air temperature in which icing is occurring.
How to obtain acknowledgment from a helicopter equipped with receiver only
1. Between sunrise and sunset:
(a) While hovering, either turn the helicopter toward the controlling facility and flash the landing light
or rock the tip path plane.
(b) While in flight, either flash the landing light or rock the tip path plane.
2. Between sunset and sunrise: Flash landing light or search light.

(see word doc)
H64 departing from South Transient Pad 7, after an H47 conducts a low approach to runway 14
3 minutes
"Will"
means futurity, not a requirement for the application of a procedure
Phraseology for an "Aircraft Conflict/Mode C Intruder Alert"
TRAFFIC ALERT (call sign) (position of aircraft) ADVISE YOU TURN LEFT/RIGHT (heading),
and/or
CLIMB/DESCEND (specific altitude if appropriate) IMMEDIATELY.
Do not issue conditional instructions that are dependent upon _____________________________
___________________________________________
the movement of an arrival aircraft on or approaching the runway or a departure aircraft established on a takeoff roll
Whos can declare an emergency?
1. The pilot.
2. Facility personnel.
3. Officials responsible for the operation of the aircraft.
4. A system−generated transmission from an aircraft
an h60 and h64, both in south transient parking, conducting a simultaneous departure
distance between the takeoff points is at least 200 feet and the courses to be flown do not conflict.
NOTE: Refer to surface markings to determine the 200 foot minimum, or instruct a helicopter to remain at least 200 feet from another helicopter
Can controllers rephrase "phraseology" prescribed in the 7110.65?
yes, after first using the prescribed phraseology for a specific procedure.
Good judgment must be exercised when using nonstandard phraseology
Issue bird advisory information on ______________, _____________, or _______________ and pilot-verified bird activity
pilot-reported, tower-observed, or radar-observed and pilot-verified bird activity
During the time Braking Action Advisories are in effect, take the following action:
1. Issue the latest braking action report for the runway in use to each arriving and departing aircraft
2. If no report has been received for the runway of intended use, issue an advisory to that effect
3. Advise the Airport Operator that runway braking action reports of less than good have been received
4. Solicit PIREPs of runway braking action
At airports with an operating control tower, aircraft executing a go−around during a Visual Approach may be directed to:
1. Enter the traffic pattern for landing. An altitude assignment is not required. The pilot is expected to climb to pattern altitude and is responsible to maintain terrain and obstruction avoidance. ATC must provide approved separation or visual separation from other IFR aircraft, or
2. Proceed as otherwise instructed by ATC. The pilot is expected to comply with assigned instructions, and responsible to maintain terrain and obstruction avoidance until reaching an ATC assigned altitude. ATC is responsible to provide instructions to the pilot to facilitate a climb to the minimum altitude for instrument operations. ATC must provide approved separation or visual separation from other IFR aircraft.
NOTE: The pilot is responsible for their own terrain and obstruction avoidance during a go−around after conducting a visual approach
2 SVFR helicopters in the class delta
Apply non-radar, visual, or IFR radar separation
