  1. Question 1 · Instrument Rating

    (Refer to FAA-CT-8080-3F, Figure 213.) The threshold elevation for landing on RWY 28R is

    • A.4,260 feet MSL.
    • B.3,488 feet MSL.
    • C.3,940 feet MSL.
    Show answer and explanation

    Correct: B. 3,488 feet MSL.

    The briefing strip of the Billings VOR/DME RWY 28R chart lists THRE 3488, the threshold elevation of runway 28R, and Apt Elev 3652 for the airport. Minimums in the profile are referenced to that threshold elevation; 3,940 and 4,260 feet are not the threshold value.
