Final answer:

The subject is Aviation. The pilot can choose to start the approach or not based on the NOTAM about the TDZL being out of service. There are two options available to the pilot.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subject of this question is Aviation, which is the study of the design, operation, and use of aircraft. In this specific scenario, the question is related to a pilot approaching to land at KGEG airport using the ILS RWY 3 under part 135 regulations.

Based on the NOTAM provided, the TDZL (Touchdown Zone Lights) for Runway 3 are out of service. The pilot is advised that the visibility is 1900 RVR (Runway Visual Range). With this information, the pilot has two options:

  1. If the pilot wants to start the approach, they can continue with the landing process despite the TDZL being out of service.
  2. If the pilot chooses not to start the approach due to the TDZL being out of service, they must communicate their decision to ATC and delay their approach.
