Traffic Advisories are a (Mandatory / Non Mandatory) service provided by controllers to aircraft operating in the radar pattern.

• A. Mandatory
• B. Non Mandatory
• C. Advisory only
• D. Discretionary

Answer: (B)

Traffic Advisories are information about other aircraft in the area provided by ATC to help you maintain safe separation. They are advisory in nature and not mandatory. You still hold responsibility for seeing and avoiding traffic and for following any ATC instructions, but a TA itself is not a required command. Controllers may issue these advisories when radar coverage is available, but the service isn’t required by regulation, so it’s described as non-mandatory.
