DASH ONE - SECTION 6 + 7

Question 1

How is STALL RECOVERY accomplished at first?

Answer 1

“Stall recovery is accomplished by easing the stick forward to lower the nose and simultaneously applying full power to fly the aircraft out of the stalled condition.”

Question 2

RECOMMENDED AEROBATIC MANOEUVRES
Entry speeds (IAS)
Loop
Lazy eight
Chandelle

Answer 2

Loop - 140 knots
Lazy eight - 130 knots
Chandelle - 130 knots

Question 3

Before starting any aerobatics, what must be done?

Answer 3

1. Auxiliary fuel pump - ON
2. Fuel selector turned - BOTH ON
3. RPM - 2500 RPM

Question 4

When diving what should you look out for, and how do you prevent this?

Answer 4

1. Over speeding the engine
2. Exercise extreme care when increasing the power

Question 5

How many turns in spin does it take, before it becomes stationary?

Answer 5

2 turns

Question 6

What is the rate of rotation and the altitude loss during the stationary spin?

Answer 6

1. Rate of rotation of 2.5 sec/turn
2. Altitude loss of approx. 300 -
   400 ft/turn

Question 7

What is the average total loss of altitude during a spin?

Answer 7

2500 ft after entry, 6 turns of spin and recovery

Question 8

SPIN RECOVERY
First 2 steps?

Answer 8

1. Throttle idle
2. Flaps up

Question 9

How can you determine if a spin is erect or inverted?

Answer 9

“The pilot can recognize if the spin is erect or inverted by the positive or negative load factors”

In other words read if you’re pulling positive or negative “G”

Question 10

How can you determine spin direction?

Answer 10

“Determine spin direction by the needle of the turn and slip indicator or by observing the ground over the nose. “

Question 11

When in an inverted spin, what is the best way to determine spin direction?

Answer 11

“To observe the ground through the canopy in an inverted spin will give you a false indication of spin direction. Therefore, the most reliable indication of the spin direction is the turn-needle.”

Question 12

ERECT SPIN
What is the procedure for erect spin, after it’s been determined?

Answer 12

A) Apply full opposite rudder. Ailerons neutral

B) Ease stick forward

C) When rotation of the spin stops, centralize the rudder

D) Apply gentle back pressure at 80 - 100 knots to recover from the dive and resume normal flight

Question 13

INVERTED SPIN
What is the procedure for inverted spin, after it’s been determined?

Answer 13

A) Apply full opposite rudder. Ailerons neutral

B) Apply back pressure

C) When rotation of the spin stops, centralize the rudder

D) Roll out the aircraft to resume erect flight and apply gentle back pressure to resume normal flight

Question 14

Recovery is normally done within one additional turn. If, however, the control stick is pressed too violently ___, an increase in rate of rotation will occur which will delay the recovery by
___.

Answer 14

1. Forward
2. 1 - 2 turns

Question 15

Never use __ in an asymmetric flight condition as the __ effectiveness will be marginal.

Answer 15

1. Flaps
2. Roll

Question 16

TURBULENCE AND THUNDERSTORM
What is written about severe turbulence?

Answer 16

Flying in severe turbulence should be avoided.

If this is not possible, all occupants shall tighten their safety belts.

Do not increase the load factor by steep turns or other violent maneuvers

Question 17

What does “cold weather” generally refer to?

Answer 17

Temperatures below 0 °C unless otherwise specified

Question 18

What should be done, if the aircraft has been parked outdoors and accumulation of frost, ice or snow has formed on lifting surfaces or any other surface that may adversely affect performance?

Answer 18

Such accumulations must be removed before take-off

Question 19

What should you not use on the aircraft surface or canopy, to remove frost, ice or snow?

Answer 19

Mechanical scrapers

Question 20

When de-icing the aircraft, what should be done, avoided and what is prohibited?

Answer 20

The pitot tube cover must be installed while spraying

Avoid spraying fluid into the static and dynamic pitot system

Spraying the areas around the static holes on the fuselage is prohibited

Question 21

At temperature below –15 °C, what should you do before starting engine?

Answer 21

Engine oil should be preheated

Question 22

During flight in temperatures below ___, cycle propeller about every ___ to help prevent freezing of the oil in the propeller dome.

Answer 22

1. 0 °C
2. 30 minutes

Question 23

During take-off in cold weather with accumulation of ice or snow, what should you be cautious about?

Answer 23

The take-off distance and climb performances can be seriously affected

Question 24

In this manual warm weather refers to what?

Answer 24

Temperatures above +40 °C

Question 25

Take-off and landing in warm weather may affect what?

Answer 25

That the distance for takeoff and landing will be longer than normal

Question 26

During taxiing and climb in warm weather, what should be done to avoid vapor-locks forming in the fuel lines?

Answer 26

The auxiliary fuel pump should be ON
