When a threshold is temporarily displaced (less than 30 days), how shall it be marked?
When a threshold is displaced (more than 30 days), how shall it be marked?
Of what shall an aiming point marking consist and where on the RWY shall it be located?
- An aiming point marking shall consist of two conspicuous stripes and it shall be ≥22.5 long
- it shall begin 300m from the THR for runways <2400m and 400m from the THR for runways ≥2400m
(The aiming point marking counts to the required number of pairs of TDZ markings; where a PAPI is installed, the aiming point marking shall be coincident with the approach angle)
Which code of touchdown zone marking shall be provided at each approach end of a paved precision approach RWY?
A touchdown zone marking shall be provided at each approach end of a paved precision approach runway where the code number is 2, 3 or 4 (see Tab 22, chapter 9.1.1, “Reference Code” - T2B).
Which code of touchdown zone marking shall be provided at each approach end of a paved non-precision approach RWY?
A touchdown zone marking should be provided at a non-precision approach or non-instrument runway with code number 3 and 4 and when additional conspicuousness is desired.
How many touchdown zone markigns are required?
Landing distance available [or the distance between thresholds]: less than 900 m

What is an APAPI and how does it provide you information?
Abbreviated Precision Approach Path Indicator
- 2 lamps showing white or red depending on the approach angle
- Installed left of the runway if possible
What is the relation between MEHT – Minimum Eye Height over threshold, Glideslope Height over Threshold, and Main Wheel Height over Threshold
How do vehicles need to be lighted on an aerodrome when they are considered an obstacle?
flashing yellow
When should pre-threshold markings be used?
When the surface before a threshold is paved and exceeds 60 m in length and is not suitable for normal use by aircraft, the entire length before the threshold should be marked with a chevron marking
