Page 21, Subunit 1.1, outline level 10: To better cover runway and taxiway markings, the following content is added to the study unit outline. The text currently 10 became outline level 11 and the image connected with that outline level was renamed as well.
10. Taxiway ending markers (Figure F below) feature bold yellow, angled stripes on a black background.
a. These signs are typically located at the far end of an intersection to indicate that the taxiway does not continue beyond the point where the sign is installed.
Figure F
10. 11.
Runway location sign (Figure F G below). These signs identify the runway on which an aircraft is currently located.

11. 12. Holding position markings for taxiway/taxiway intersections (Figure G H below) consist of one dashed line extending across the width of the taxiway. They are installed on taxiways where ATC normally holds aircraft short of a taxiway intersection.
a. When the marking is not present and you are instructed by ATC “hold short of (taxiway),” you should stop to a point which provides adequate clearance from an aircraft on the intersecting taxiway.
Figure G H
12.
13. Vehicle roadway markings (Figure H I on the next page). These markings are used to define a pathway for vehicle operations in areas that are also intended for aircraft.
a. Vehicle roadway markings consist of a white solid line to delineate each edge of the roadway and a dashed line to separate lanes within the edges of the roadway.
1) An alternative to solid edge lines is the use of zipper markings (staggered lines).
14. Runway incursions are a special safety interest area with the FAA.
a. A runway incursion exists when an aircraft, vehicle, person, or object on the ground creates a collision hazard or results in a loss of required separation with an aircraft taking off, intending to take off, landing, or intending to land. b. At an airport with an operating control tower, a pilot is considered to have initiated a runway incursion when the aircraft strays beyond a taxiway hold short line without first obtaining a specific clearance to do so from Air Traffic Control (ATC).
1) A runway incursion does not require that the airplane taxi onto the runway, only that it crosses the hold short line without prior clearance.

c. At an airport without an operating control tower, a pilot is considered to have initiated a runway incursion when the aircraft creates a collision risk by taxiing too close to or onto a runway that is already in use or intended to be in use by another aircraft, for the purpose of takeoff or landing.
1) If the hold short lines are not apparent, the pilot should clear the area to verify there is no conflicting traffic by visually scanning the full length of the runway, including the approach areas.
Figure H I
“Taxi into position and hold” is the instruction to taxi onto the active runway and prepare for takeoff, but not to take off. “Line up and wait” is an instruction ATC might issue that clears you to taxi onto the active runway, align yourself with the centerline, and await a clearance to take off.
“Line up and wait” does not authorize a takeoff.

4. (Refer to Figure 59 on page 179.) The floor of Class E airspace over the Jamestown airport is
A. 700 feet AGL.
B. 1,200 feet AGL.
C. 1,200 feet MSL.
Answer (A) is correct. (ACL)
DISCUSSION: The magenta-shaded ring around the Jamestown airport indicates that
Class E airspace descends to 700 ft. AGL.
Below 700 ft. AGL is Class G airspace.
Answer (B) is incorrect. Class E airspace with a floor of 1,200 ft. AGL is depicted with a blue-shaded ring, not a magenta-shaded one, as is the case around the
Jamestown airport. Answer (C) is incorrect.
Class E airspace with a floor of 1,200 ft.
AGL, not MSL, is depicted with a blue-shaded ring, not a magenta-shaded one, as is the case around the Jamestown airport.

Page 189, Subunit 10.2: To better cover the subject of Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs), the following content is added to the outline. Some of the existing outline content was rearranged to accommodate this addition. The current outline level 1. b. becomes 1. c. and is edited as shown.
b. As part of your weather analysis, you should also obtain pertinent
Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) for your departure and destination as well as your route of flight.
1) The NOTAM system disseminates time-critical aeronautical information that either is of a temporary nature or is not sufficiently known in advance to permit publication on aeronautical charts or in other operational publications. a) NOTAM information is aeronautical information that could affect your decision to make a flight.
2) NOTAMs are grouped into four types. a) NOTAM (D) includes information such as airport or primary runway closures; changes in the status of navigational aids,
ILSs, and radar service availability; and other information essential to planned en route, terminal, or landing operations. Also included is information on airport taxiways, aprons, ramp areas, and associated lighting. b) FDC NOTAMs are issued by the Flight Data Center and contain regulatory information such as amendments to published instrument approach charts and other current aeronautical charts. c) Pointer NOTAMs reduce total NOTAM volume by pointing to other
NOTAM (D) and FDC NOTAMs rather than duplicating potentially unnecessary information for an airport or NAVAID. They allow pilots to reference NOTAMs that might not be listed under a given airport or NAVAID identifier. d) Military NOTAMs reference military airports and NAVAIDs and are rarely of any interest to civilian pilots.
3) The Notices to Airmen Publication (NTAP) is issued every 28 days and is an integral part of the NOTAM system. Once a NOTAM is published in the NTAP, the NOTAM is not provided during pilot weather briefings unless specifically requested. a) The NTAP contains (D) NOTAMs that are expected to remain in effect for an extended period and FDC NOTAMs that are current at the time of publication. b. c. Obtain the appropriate charts and other navigation publications (i.e., A/FD , NTAP ) that you will need for your cross-country flight.

1) You can obtain the NOTAMs in the
by specifically requesting any “published NOTAMs” from an FSS specialist during your weather briefing.
a) These NOTAMs are provided to you only if you specifically request them.
2) 1) Be sure that you use only current charts and publications since revisions in aeronautical information occur constantly. a) These revisions may include changes in radio frequencies, new obstructions, temporary or permanent closing of runways and airports, and other temporary or permanent hazards to flight.
Page 199, Subunit 10.2: The following new questions are added to address the Notices to Airmen system. All subsequent questions are renumbered accordingly.
10. When NOTAMs are published in the Notices to Airmen Publication (NTAP), they are
A. Still a part of a standard weather briefing.
B. Only available in a standard weather briefing if the pilot requests published NOTAMs.
C. Canceled and are no longer valid.
11. What information is contained in the
Notices to Airmen Publication (NTAP)?
A. Current NOTAM (D) and FDC NOTAMs.
B. Military NOTAMs only.
C. Current NOTAM (D), FDC NOTAMs, and military NOTAMs.
Answer (B) is correct. (AIM Para 5-1-3)
DISCUSSION: Once a NOTAM is published in the NTAP, the NOTAM is not provided during pilot weather briefings unless specifically requested.
Answer (A) is incorrect. Published
NOTAMs are only available in a pilot weather briefing if the pilot makes a specific request for them. NOTAMs that have not been published are a part of a standard weather briefing. Answer (C) is incorrect. A published NOTAM remains in effect until its expiration date or until an additional NOTAM is issued to cancel it.
Answer (A) is correct. (AIM Para 5-1-3)
DISCUSSION: The NTAP contains (D) NOTAMs that are expected to remain in effect for an extended period and FDC NOTAMs that are current at the time of publication.
Answer (B) is incorrect. Military NOTAMs are not published in the NTAP . Answer (C) is incorrect. While current NOTAM (D) and FDC
NOTAMs are published in the NTAP , military
NOTAMs are not.
