Question 1

The decrease in thrust with increased forward speed is NOT as pronounced in:

Answer 1

The pure jet

Question 2

If the ambient air temperature increases, the turbofan/pure jet will be affected in what way, assuming the thrust lever is not moved?

Answer 2

Thrust decrease, fuel flow decrease

Question 3

The specific fuel consumption of a turboprop aircraft is a ratio of:

Answer 3

Fuel flow (lb/hr) /ESHP

Question 4

During a 15 minute flight at a constant cruise altitude and engine RPM, the engine produces 4,000 lb of thrust, and consumes 1,000 lb of fuel. The thrust specific fuel consumption is?

Answer 4

1.0

Question 5

The engine is run-up from idle to max power. You would expect which of the
following indications?

Answer 5

Increased rpm, EGT, fuel flow, combined with higher air mass flow

Question 6

Air-shrouds in a Brayton cycle engine combustion chamber, are primarily incorporated to do what?

Answer 6

Ensure the fuel air/ratio is at optimum

Question 7

Avtur has a higher SG than Avgas. An advantage of this is:

Answer 7

Greater temperature rise per unit of volume

Question 8

Regarding the EHSI, the difference between the display in Plan and Map mode is:

Answer 8

Plan shows a static map background with the FMC flight plan displayed with
the current track and heading information the top of the screen

Question 9

Selecting a negative decision height (DH) on the EADI will cause:

Answer 9

The DH to go blank and the RA readout to remain unaffected

Question 10

The loss of numeric data which is replaced by dashes on the EHSI display is caused by:

Answer 10

Unreliable data

Question 11

With a typical EHSI selected to PLAN mode:

Answer 11

The plan section of the display is oriented to true North with current track at the top

Question 12

When the localiser and glideslope have been captured and are the engaged modes in pitch and roll, the indications which will be observed on the EFIS are:

Answer 12

ILS will be displayed on the EHSI if selected to the ILS mode

Question 13

A partial loss of EFIS presentation with a wire frame outline and loss of raster
scanning can be caused by:

Answer 13

Overheat

Question 14

Flight director/autopilot modes are not able to be selected together in:

Answer 14

V/S and VNAV PATH

Question 15

The First Officer is flying a multiple autopilot equipped aircraft. The autopilot which should be engaged are:

Answer 15

R only or C only unless performing an auto-land
