111) ETOPS flight is a twin engine jet aeroplane flight conducted over a route, where no suitable airport is within an area of

Select one of the following:

Explanation

Question 13 of 20

1

112) For a take-off from a contaminated runway, which of the following statements is correct?

Select one of the following:
