17 / 20

Given:

Distance from departure to destination: 250 NM
GS Out: 130 kt
GS Home: 100 kt

What is the distance of the PET from the departure point?

  • A
    109 NM
  • B
    125 NM
  • C
    141 NM
  • D
    192 NM

Note: Since the terms PET and PSR are not present in EASA Air Ops, these questions are less likely to appear in the exam.

Distance to PET = Distance x GS Home / (GS out + GS Home)

250 NM x 100 kts / (130 kts + 100 kts) = 109 NM
