Yes
No, the one that has the other on its left has the right of way
Yes, unless the other is an aeroplane towing something
It depends who has the priority. This case is only applicable if they are the same type
of aircraft
You are approaching a turning point on a cross country navex where you are required to turn to
port. There is another aeroplane ahead of you and you are quite quickly overtaking him. There
isn't time to pass him on the right and then make the required left tum. What should you do?
a.
b.
c.
d.
15.
Concorde of course!
The balloon because it is not powered
The balloon because aeroplanes give way to balloons
Neither (they are both 'aircraft')
When two aircraft are converging at approx. the same level, the one that has the other on its right
is required to give way. Is this correct?
a.
b.
c.
d.
14.
REVISION QUESTIONS
Ignore the requirements of the navex and delay the left tum until well clear of the other
aeroplane
Quickly climb to 1000 ft above the other aircraft and then overtake him and make the
tum at the right point then descent to the original level
Overtake on the left and file a report when you land
Tum left early and avoid the other aeroplane

approaching to land?
a.
b.
c.
d.
Yes, the rules are quite clear - the one at the lower altitude has the right of way
It depends what you mean by approaching to land. If the lower one was at a range of
greater than 4 nm he would be long final with no priority.
No, if the higher aeroplane is in an emergency, he has priority over every thing esle
No. The lower aircraft is obliged to give way only if he is aware that the higher
aeroplane is in an emergency
