Across
  1. 2. Situational ... The accurate perception and understanding of all elements and conditions affecting safety and operations within the flight environment
  2. 5. Sleep ... The condition of not having enough sleep, leading to fatigue and reduced alertness
  3. 10. To intentionally ignore or not follow an instruction, alert, or warning (only done when it's confirmed to be inappropriate or incorrect)
  4. 15. ... altitude, The altitude at or below which aircraft altitude is referenced to local pressure (QNH), above which it’s referenced to standard pressure (1013.25 hPa).
  5. 17. ... damage. Major damage to the aircraft structure or systems that affects performance or safety, not including minor issues like dents or scratches
  6. 19. Engine ... A severe disruption of airflow through the engine, causing power loss, loud bangs, and possible damage
  7. 20. To ... a go-around. To abort a landing approach and climb back into the traffic pattern due to unsafe conditions or ATC instruction
Down
  1. 1. Runway ... Any unauthorized presence of an aircraft, vehicle, or person on the runway, creating a safety hazard
  2. 3. When the flaps or slats do not extend or retract evenly on both wings, potentially affecting flight stability
  3. 4. To enter the ... To join a holding pattern where aircraft hold at different altitudes waiting for clearance to proceed
  4. 6. ... loss of separation. A situation where to aircraft are predicted to breach the minimum required separation within a very short time
  5. 7. ... action. An action, such as changing speed or route, instructed by the ATC to slow an aircraft's arrival to manage traffic flow
  6. 8. ... stress. Continuous exposure to stress over an extended period, which can negatively affect pilot performance and decision-making.
  7. 9. High ... A condition where engine exhaust temperature exceeds safe limits, indicating possible engine problems
  8. 11. A small wind-driven emergency generator used when main power is lost
  9. 12. Stabiliser trim ... A malfunction where the stabiliser trim keeps moving uncontrollably, potentially affecting pitch control
  10. 13. ... circuit. An electrical fault where current flows along an unintended path, often causing overheating or system failure
  11. 14. cross-... The practice of verifying actions or data by checking with a secondary source or person to ensure accuracy and safety.
  12. 16. TCAS ... A mandatory avoidance instruction issued by the TCAS, requiring immediate pilot response to avoid mid-air collision
  13. 18. Level... A deviation from an assigned flight level or altitude by more than 300 feet, potentially compromising separation with other aircraft.
