    (C) More than the maximum structural landing weight
    (D) Equal to the empty operating weight plus the payload

5. Pick up the correct statement from the following:
    (A) Minimum turning radius of aircrafts decides the size of the apron and the radius of the curves at taxi-ends
    (B) Take off and landing distances for an aircraft, determine the minimum runway length
    (C) The length of the normal haul of the air craft decides the frequency of operation
    (D) All the above

6. As per ICAO, the minimum basic runway length for A and E type of airport will be
    (A) 1500 m and 600 m
    (B) 2100 m and 750 m
    (C) 1500 m and 750 m

    (A) Runway edge from the landing side, is called threshold
    (B) Localizer indicates to the pilot his position with respect to the proposed alignment
    (C) The glide slope indicates the correct angle of descent
    (D) All the above

8. Assertion A : The ratio of arriving and departing aircrafts influences the airport
Capacity: Reason R : Landing operation is generally given priority over the taking off operation.
