#1. What is the minimum amount of third party insurance required for a microlight?
This is measured in Special Drawing or SDR Rights
An SDR (Special Drawing Right) is a currency unit of the International Monetary Fund and is used worldwide as a method of determining value. It is based on a selection of foreign currencies and therefore fluctuates in value on a continual basis in the same way as any currency does.

#6. What is the radius of an ATZ if the longest runway is 2000m?
Aerodrome Traffic Zones (ATZ)
ATZ’s are established to give protection to aircraft at the critical stages of flight when departing, arriving and flying in the vicinity of an aerodrome.
Where the longest runway is greater than 1850 metres in length
The zone will normally extend from the surface to 2000 feet above ground level (agl) with a radius of 2.5 NM around the midpoint of the longest runway.
Where the longest runway is less than 1850 metres in length
The zone will normally extend from the surface to 2000 feet agl with a radius of 2.0 NM around the midpoint of the longest runway for aerodromes.

#13. You are in communication with an AFIS (Aerodrome Flight Information Service), where does their authority end?
Ref: CAA CAP 413
AFISOs are also permitted to pass messages on behalf of other agencies and instructions from the aerodrome operator. If they do so, they will include the name of the agency so that pilots will be aware that the message comes from a legitimate source, e.g. ‘Wrayton Control clears you to join …’.
With the exception of issuing instructions to aircraft on the ground, AFISOs provide an information service relating to the ATZ and aerodrome. They must ensure that the information given to pilots is distinct and unambiguous, as pilots will use
this information for the safe and efficient conduct of their flights.
An AFISO may request pilots to make position reports e.g.downwind, final etc. These requests do not have the status of instructions, although it is expected that most pilots will comply.
From the information provided by the AFISO, the pilot will determine if it is safe to land, take-off or transit
the ATZ. AFISOs are not permitted to refuse entry into the ATZ when requested by a pilot. The aerodrome authority may decide that they will not permit an aircraft to land at their aerodrome and request that the AFISO pass this message on. Such a message must be prefixed: ‘Message from the aerodrome authority…’ AFISOs may not issue such
messages of their own volition.
#14. Class E airspace is for both IFR and VFR flights but do you require a clearance to enter it?
Class E. Class E airspace is for IFR and VFR use. IFR aircraft require ATC clearance and compliance with ATC instructions is mandatory for separation purposes. VFR traffic does not require clearance to enter class E airspace.
