This question has been flagged as being in an exam by multiple students, give it more attention
A
Nil.
B
5 to 7 oktas CU and CB base FL100, tops FL180.
C
3 to 7 oktas CU and CB base below FL100, tops FL180.
D
5 to 7 oktas CU and CB base below FL100, tops FL180.
Explanation
BKN = 5-7 Oktas. and CU CB clearly stated in the information box overhead Bodø, and "180" means that the clouds tops are at FL180.
The clue for solving this question is understanding what "XXX" means.
XXX means that the clouds base is below the area that the chart is covering - in other words, below FL100. As you can see in the big information box in the top left corner, the chart is valid between FL100 and FL450.

An aircraft is flying at an indicated altitude of 16 000 ft. The outside air temperature is -30 ° C. What is the true altitude of the aircraft?
This question has been flagged as being in an exam by multiple students, give it more attention
A
13 500 ft
B
15 200 ft
C
18 600 ft
D
16 200 ft
Explanation
Work out ISA deviation - here it is -13°C
Altitude correction = (pressure alt ÷ 1000) × 4 × ISA
This gives 832ft.
As it is colder than ISA, our true altitude is going to be lower and so we minus the correction.
16,000 - 832 = 15,168ft
Round to nearest 100 gives 15,200ft.
