Note: Human factors is now incorporated into each of the RAA exams. Around 20% of questions in each new RAA exam relate to human factors. We have left Human Factors as a separate category until things settle and so you can study this topic separately.

CASA policy on Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) is: CASA actually requires you to be unaffected by alcohol and other drugs. Whilst the goal is a o.oo% BAC, testing equipment accuracy is limited. Also some foods and other things such as working near dough etc can cause false positives at low BAC levels. CASA actually requires you to be unaffected by alcohol and other drugs. Whilst the goal is a o.oo% BAC, testing equipment accuracy is limited. Also some foods and other things such as working near dough etc can cause false positives at low BAC levels. CASA can conduct a BAC or drug test anytime either airside or not, even on recreational pilots. Pilots who smoke will generally experience hypoxia: The lack of oxygen causes smokers to be feeling the effects of higher altitude whilst still being at sea level. This difficulty in breathing is especially seen when climbing to higher altitudes, this is because you are at an effectively higher altitude than non smokers. The lack of oxygen causes smokers to be feeling the effects of higher altitude whilst still being at sea level. This difficulty in breathing is especially seen when climbing to higher altitudes, this is because you are at an effectively higher altitude than non smokers. Flying with a cold or flu is not advisable due to: When on climb, the eustachian tube can easily vent out to equalise the pressure differential between the atmosphere and the middle ear. When on descent however, the eustachian tube has trouble equalising and having a cold will block the eustachian tube making it harder to equalise. This causes the eardrum to bend inwards and cause severe pain. When on climb, the eustachian tube can easily vent out to equalise the pressure differential between the atmosphere and the middle ear.

A medical condition where oxygen starvation occurs is known as: Early symptoms of oxygen depletion or starvation are similar to symptoms of alcohol intake. Hypoxia and its onset is only affected by altitude. Health factors do not change when hypoxia occurs. Hypoxia can be caused by a number of factors and is not only related to altitude. Not being in physical shape, smoking and hereditary are all factors which would affect your performance as you climb to altitudes with reduced levels of oxygen.

When gases expand in your blood and cause pain, injury or discomfort, it is known as: Human performance factors that can affect a pilot’s ability to fly include: The three basic stages of collision avoidance, in order of occurrence are: In flight, an aircraft that appears stationary in the windscreen is considered: Aircraft moving across your windscreen pose far less risk than stationary aircraft in your windscreen. Aircraft moving across your windscreen pose far less risk than stationary aircraft in your windscreen. Distant aircraft that are not on a collision path with you will: Generally, the time from spotting a possible collision to control response is considered to be: The best type of sunglasses for pilots are: You have an elevated likelihood of having a mid air collision: Pilot skill has little bearing on the likelihood of a mid-air collision; it is primarily vision and other factors. Two major factors for avoiding mid-air collisions are: Other factors that may reduce mid-air collisions include: A situation where a pilot cannot sense his/her attitude correctly is known as: Pilots are more prone to disorientation when the aircraft is: Illusions associated with angular and linear acceleration include: Smoke, fog, dust, haze and clouds highlight the need for: Flying without enough elapsed time after scuba diving can cause injury or adverse effects on the pilot. What is the minimum (not safe) recommended wait time after multiple dives in a day that do not total more than 4 hours or require decompression, or in other words, what is the minimum time interval suggested between surfacing from the last dive and flying?

If they are stationary, they are either flying directly toward you or away or hovering.
In most cases they are coming at you and very fast. The lack of movement, means you detect them later and the the time between detection and collision is very short.
In the event of a possible head on collision, immediately turn right.
