Q

When do you adjust MDA/DH?

A

Significantly colder or hotter than standard

24
Q

What is the FAF?

A

Beginning of the final approach segment. ILS glideslope intersection should occur prior to the FAF

25
Q

Dehavlin Comet Design flaw

A

Square windows lead to stress cracks–metal fatigue

26
Q

Local altimeter is 29.85. You set 29.35. What are the ramifications?

A

You are indicating 500’ lower than your true altitude.

27
Q

Balanced Field Takeoff

A

At v1, you lose a motor and takeoff/stop in same distance, which equals runway length.

28
Q

GPS fails. INS:

a. completely unreliable
b. updated by VOR so doesn’t matter
c. Accurate if you get GS from Radar

A

B

29
Q

On appch 5 miles from field. NDB, 090 approach course. You cross NDB and the tail shows 100 radial. Do you turn left or right to get on course?

A

Left Tail always rises

30
Q

70% of 500 students graduate. Of those, 40% want to be pilots. How many want to be pilots

A

140

31
Q

Load Factor

A

Lift/Weight

32
Q

Where does the air in the engine start accelerating?

A

Compressor

33
Q

In straight and level flight, you accelerate. What is the relationship with lift, weight, thrust and drag?

A

Thrust increases, then a/s increases. Parasite drag goes up, induced drag goes down (AOA decreases). As drag and new thrust are equal, plane stops accelerating.

34
Q

You open all cross feed valves and turn on all boost pumps. Some pumps have more power than others. Which tanks will empty first?

A

Possibly the one with the more powerful boost pump. Other options included the motor with the higher fuel flow (doesn’t make sense unless you have boost pumps that can’t keep up with engine fuel demands)

35
Q

How many g’s will there be in a turn with 30 deg of bank.

A

1.15 g.

36
Q

When are you considered on the final appch portion of an appch?

A

At the GS/FAF.

37
Q

How wide is a normal US airway?

A

8 nm. 4 nm either side.

38
Q

Iced over pitot tube in descent reads what?

A

Descent or zero.

39
Q

You are on final with a 15 kt crosswind. When you line up with the runway (i.e. stop crabbing) you need to: increase or decrease power

A

Increase power

40
Q

Taxiway sign with a “T” and 18-36.

A

Taxiway Tango and 18 approach end to your left and 36 approach end on your right.

41
Q

Know the runway marking for aim point and how far down the runway it is.

A

1,020’. These are the broad markings. Only one set.

42
Q

QFE

A

Altimeter set to 0 on the field

43
Q

How many statute miles in a nautical mile?

A

1.15 SM = 1 NM

ONE TEST QUESTION HAS YOU CONVERT!!!

44
Q

You see airplane on horizon and TCAS shows range decreasing with no bearing change? What course are you on?

  • Collision
  • Diverging
  • Parallel
  • Random
A

Collision

45
Q

Which has a higher TAS? 0.95M at 30K or 0.95M at 10K?

A

0.95M at 10K

46
Q

Which temp gives the greatest Mach?

A

The COLDEST temp

47
Q

T/F Mcrt can cause “Mach Tuck” effect

A

True. Disrupted airflow off wings creates a loss of downwash over elevator, causing a pitch down moment. (Cl moves aft which causes a nose down pitching moment)

48
Q

What is an anti servo tab? Where is it mounted?

A

Mounted on the trailing edge of the stabilator. It moves the SAME direction as the stab. It’s purpose is to provide feedback on the yoke to prevent over control.

49
Q

Trim Tab purpose.

A

To lessen stick forces. It moves the OPPOSITE direction as the elevator.

50
Q

Leading edge devices–fixed slots

A
  • Allow smooth flow over upper wing surface delaying airflow separation
  • doesn’t increase camber
  • delays stall to a higher AOA
51
Q

Leading edge devices–slats

A

Move forward at high AOA creating an opening that allows air to flow over upper surface delaying separation.
-may increase camber and wing area

52
Q

What increases turn radius?

A

Less bank
More Airspeed
Less g (load factor)
–although bank and g are related if a level turn

53
Q

What increases turn rate?

A

More Airspeed
More G (load factor)
I think it is actually less speed.

54
Q

Swept wings increase or decrease lateral stability?

A

Increase. It acts the same as dihedral effects.

55
Q

Swept wings increase or decrease longitudinal stability?

A

Increase. It moves the Center of Lift (Center or Pressure) further aft.

56
Q

Swept wings increase or decrease directional stability?

A

Increase. When a/c is rotated about vertical axis leading wing has more frontal area and more lift, therefore more drag, pulling wing aft–back to position.

57
Q

Dutch Roll

A

Rolling/yawing moment (overshooting) produced by dihedral effect. “nose wandering” - think T-38 without yaw damper. The fix, increasing directional stability, results in spiral instability.
