I hope you enjoyed this video of Brendan and myself flying off to Dairy House Farm to visit the famous Pie shop for lunch. It has been on my list to fly with Brendan for a long time and it really felt like a holiday, especially as it was fantastic weather and like summer. This slightly spontaneous trip really shows the differences between the older generation of microlights and the newer Peabee and Adams. I hope you enjoy our little adventure for lunch.
Questions
Agonic line
What is isogonal and agonic line?
Isogonic lines are lines on the Earth's surface along which the declination has the same constant value, and lines along which the declination is zero are called agonic lines.
CAVOK
(aviation) Acronym of ceiling (or clouds) and visibility [are] OK., a weather status report for pilots when visibility is at least 10 kilometres, there are no clouds below 5000 feet or minimum sector altitude (whichever is higher), there are no cumulonimbus or towering cumulus in the vicinity, and there is no current or forecast significant weather such as precipitation.
Yes, you can get cloud with CAVOK
CTA
Control area (CTA) These normally overlay CTRs and extend further beyond the aerodrome. They normally start around 1500 ft. They are normally class D, however some higher or larger ones are class A.
CTR
Control zone (CTR) These are established around aerodromes, with the shape orientated around the length of the most commonly used runway. In the UK they are normally class D airspace and extend from the surface to around 2000 ft, although often higher
You will fly through the CTR first.
UTC ( GMT)
Greenwich Mean Time, sometimes referred to simply as GMT, or Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
Although both GMT and UTC display the same time, there is a difference: GMT is now considered just a time zone officially used in some European and African countries.
But UTC is not a time zone, but rather the new time standard that is the basis for clock time and time zones worldwide. This means that no country or territory officially uses UTC as a local time.
