401.06 Airspace • MTPs: • Forest Fires • Airspace Definitions • Altimeter Setting • Aerodrome Zones and Areas • Describe the VFR Cruising Altitudes
MTP: Forest Fires • CAR 601.15 No Person shall operate A/C: • Over a forest fire area, or over any area that is located within 5NM of a forest fire area, at an altitude of less than 3000 feet AGL; or • In any airspace that is described in a NOTAM issued defining the area of a forest fire
MTP: Altimeter Setting • Altimeter Setting Region: • Airspace of defined dimensions below 18 000ft ASL • pilot must set altimeter to the current altimeter setting and if that is not available, to the elevation of the aerodrome • Standard Pressure Region: • All airspace above 18 000ft and all airspace outside the bounds of the altimeter setting region • The altimeter is to be set to 29.92” Hg
MTP: Aerodrome Zones and Areas • Aerodrome Traffic Zone (AZ): • An airspace of defined dimensions around an aerodrome traffic (ICAO) • Control Zone: • Defined airspace around an airport extending from the surface to a specific height • Designated around certain aerodromes to keep IFR a/c within controlled airspace during approaches and to facilitate the control of VFR and IFR traffic
MTP: Aerodrome Zones and Areas Control Zone
MTP: Aerodrome Zones and Areas • Control Area: • A defined area of space in the vicinity of an airport located above the control zone for the purpose of protecting A/C joining nearby airways
