1. Ground Operations involves all aspects of aircraft handling at airports as well as aircraft
movement around the aerodrome:
A. Therefore, provision of adequate signage, markings and lighting is important so that
aircraft are able to follow their taxi clearances properly
B. The safety actions needed for ground operations are, for example ensuring that aircraft
are not involved in collisions and that the jet blast from large aircraft does not hazard
small ones.
C. Runway Incursion may arise during or as a result of ground operations.
D. All are correct.
 
2. Runway Incursion:
A. is defined as “Any occurrence at an aerodrome involving the incorrect presence of an
aircraft ,vehicle or person on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing
and take off of aircraft”. (ICAO Doc 4444)
B. 'incorrect presence' may be a consequence of a failure of a pilot to comply with a valid
ATC clearance or their compliance with an inappropriate ATC clearance.
C. Is that the jet blast from large aircraft does not hazard small ones.
D. a failure of a pilot to comply with a valid ATC clearance or their compliance with an
inappropriate ATC clearance that may cause jet blast from large aircraft does not hazard
small ones.
 
3. When a collision occurs on the runway, at least one of the aircraft involved will often be
travelling at considerable speed which increases the risk of:
A. Insurance premium of airline
B. significant aircraft damage, and the severity of the consequences therefrom, including
serious or fatal injury.
C. Operational disruption on the particular runway/airport
D. significant aircraft damage if not covered by insurance
 
4. Some factors that may contribute runway incursions:
A. Low visibility may increase the chance of flight crew becoming disorientated and unsure
of their position whilst taxying. also likely to restrict a controller’s ability to identify and
follow aircraft visually so that cross-checking a reported aircraft position with its actual
location may become impossible unless Surface Movement Radar is available.
B. Aerodrome design. If, such as: aircraft have to cross active runways to move between
their take off or landing runway and their parking position, the likelihood of runway
incursions is increased.
C. Pilot workload, controller workload, and distraction does not have potential
contribution to runway incursions
D. A and B are correct.
 
5. One of the strategy to prevent ground/runway collision or runway incursions is to
maintain the situational awareness:
A. by flight crew and others using the maneuvering area, specifically in respect of their
own location in relation to active runways, and that of other aircraft and vehicles
relative to active runways.
B. by flight crew and others including passenger in the terminal building
C. by TWR and GND ATCOs in respect of aircraft and vehicle disposition and movements
near to active runways
D. A and C are correct.
