What type of wing produces the less induced drag and during which phase of a flight?
Low wing ACFT during landing

What is the purpose of ATC clearance?
Authorization by ATC to prevent collision between ACFT and expedite trffic.
What are ribs for in a wing?
Gives the wing its cambered shape and they transmit loads from the skin and stringers to the spars.
What is the purpose of Baffle check valves?
Prevent movement of fuel towards the wing tip.

turning 18 times?
3.14 x 3 = 9.42 x 18 = 169.56m
Km/h conversion to M/min and NM/min
6 Km/h = 100 m/min, 1 Nm/min = 111 Km/h
What is ASDA?

2min minimum (Full length T/O), 3min (Intermediate T/O after a Full length T/O)
At night an aircraft observes a luminous signal requesting help, how should the pilot
indicate that he has received these signals?
By flashing his landing lights twice or navigation lights if not equipped with landing lights.
What is whiteout effect?
It’s a weather condition that causes disorientation and low visibility by snow, overcast cloud and fog. Pilots
cannot see the visible horizon because of the terrain covered with snow in the white sky.
What is the correction factor for landing on a wet runway?
115%
How should a station address a general call to all aircraft in its area?
Start with “All stations”
In straight flight, as speed is increased, whilst trimming to keep the stick force zero:
The elevator is deflected further downwards and the trim tab further upwards.
Last minute extra cargo is being loaded in the aircraft, FWD of the CG. How should the
trim setting adjustment be?
Aft, lowering the leading edge of the stabilizer
What is the e effect on the stall speed when the weight is increased?
Stall speed increases.
Regarding CG limits, which one the following statements is true?
CG limits from aircraft operator can be more restrictive than the manufacturer’s CG limits.
What is TAT?
SAT + Ram rise temperature correction associated with high-speed flight.
Why are high latitude flights in Polar regions subject to specific problems with the use of
a gyro magnetic compass?
Because of the magnetic field being stronger, magnetic variation changes rapidly.

(6054*4)/3 = 8072
What is the purpose of Hydraulic Thermal Relief Valves?
To relieve excess pressure cause by temperature rises.
