IASD Drone Operations Practice Test

Which item is not typically provided by ATIS?

Real-time ATC instructions Noncontrol information in high-activity terminal areas. Weather updates Airport advisories for pilots

Correct Answer:

Real-time ATC instructions

Explanation:

ATIS is a continuous broadcast of essential airport information that pilots use before taxiing, taking off, or entering the terminal area. It normally includes weather updates (wind, visibility, sky condition, temperature, and altimeter), the active runway(s) and instrument approaches in use, and non-control information such as terminal-area advisories, NOTAMs, and other notices that affect operations. It’s designed to reduce radio congestion by giving you the key facts upfront. What ATIS does not provide are real-time air traffic control instructions. Those require two-way communication with ATC and are issued by controllers after you establish contact with the appropriate facility. So the item not typically provided by ATIS is real-time ATC instructions.
