When initiating a vector, a controller is required to advise a pilot of the __________.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

In this question, we are asked about what a controller should advise a pilot of when initiating a radar vector.
Option 1: 'current altimeter' — While altimeter settings are essential for flight safety, they are not specifically the information a controller must convey when issuing a radar vector. This choice addresses a separate operational need rather than the purpose behind the vector itself.
Option 2: 'purpose of a radar vector' — This is the key concept. When issuing a radar vector, the controller typically communicates why the vector is being given, i.e., the intended purpose or objective of the vector (for example, sequencing, spacing, or traffic resolution). This aligns with typical air traffic control procedures to ensure the pilot understands the reason for the maneuver.
Option 3: 'loss of communications procedures' — This refers to emergency or abnormal procedures and loss of comms, not to the standard initiation of a radar vector. It does not describe the information the controller should convey about the immediate vector instruction.
Option 4: 'closest airport' — Providing the nearest airport is a navigation or contingency detail that may be provided in certain contexts, but it is not the essential purpose of the radar vector itself and not what is typically required to be stated when initiating the vector.
Overall, the critical distinction is that the vector instruction serves a navigational/operational purpose, and the user should understand why the vector is being given. The other options either refer to unrelated cockpit information (altimeter), emergency procedures, or ancillary navigation details rather than the purpose behind issuing the vector.
