3561 (Refer to Figure 24 and Figure 28) - The VOR is tuned to Bonham VORTAC (area 3), and the aircraft is positioned over the town of Sulphur Springs (area 5). Which VOR indication is correct?

-1

-7

-8

-2

-5

-8

-359°

3539 (Refer to Figure 21) - What course should be selected on the omnibearing selector (OBS) to make a direct flight from Mercer County Regional Airport (area 3) to the Minot VORTAC (area 1) with a TO indication?

-001°

-359°

-179°

-Execute gentle banks, left and right for continuous visual scanning of the airspace

3814 - What procedures is recommended when climbing or descending VFR on an airway?

-Execute gentle banks, left and right for continuous visual scanning of the airspace

-Advise the nearest FSS of the altitude changes

-Fly away from the centerline of the airway before changing altitude

-0° FROM or 180° TO, regardless of the pilot's position from the VOT

3598-1 - When the course deviation indicator (CDI) needle is centered during an omnireceiver check using a VOR test signal (VOT), the omnibearing selector (OBS) and the TO/FROM indicator should read:

-180° FROM, only if the pilot is due north of the VOT

-0° TO or 180° FROM, regardless of the pilot's position from the VOT

-0° FROM or 180° TO, regardless of the pilot's position from the VOT

-The pilot has no assurance of the accuracy of the GPS position

3598-3 - If receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM) capability is lost in flight:

-The pilot may still rely on GPS derived altitude for vertical information

-The pilot has no assurance of the accuracy of the GPS position

-GPS position is reliable provided at least 3 GPS satellites are available

-4

3598-4 - How many Global Positioning Systems (GPS) satellites are required to yield a three dimensional position (latitude, longitude, and altitude) and time solution?
