Exam Question 3

Question 1

What can happen when a pilot experiences an illusion while approaching to land on a runway that is narrower than the typical runway width?

Answer 1

The pilot will fly a lower approach, with the risk of striking objects along the approach path or possibly landing short.

Question 2

Floating caused by the phenomenon of ground effect will be most realized during an approach to land when at..

Answer 2

Less than the length of the wingspan above the surface.

Question 3

A wing can be stalled:

Answer 3

at any airspeed or attitude.

Question 4

Each recreational or private pilot is required to have.

Answer 4

A Biennial flight review (24 months)

Question 5

An abnormally high engine oil temperature indication may be caused by?

Answer 5

The oil level being too low.

Question 6

How should the flight controls be held while taxiing a tailwheel airplane with a left quartering tailwind?

Answer 6

Left aileron down, elevator down.

Question 7

Most U.S built aircraft engines rotate the propeller clockwise, as viewed from the pilots seat. When the aircrafts wheels are on the ground during the takeoff roll, torque reaction causes:

Answer 7

More weight to be placed on the left main landing gear.

Question 8

What should you do to determine that your emergency locator transmitter (ELT) hasn’t been activated?

Answer 8

Monitor 121.5 before engine shutdown.

Question 9

The load factor in a level, coordinated turn with 60 degrees of bank is:

Answer 9

2.00 Gs.

Question 10

An airplane and an airship are converging. If the airship is left of the airplane’s position, which aircraft has the right-of-way?

Answer 10

The airship.

Question 11

An electrical system failure (battery and alternator) occurs during flight. In this situation, you would?

Answer 11

experience avionics equipment failure.

Question 12

A stall occurs when:

Answer 12

The smooth airflow over the wing becomes turbulent reducing lift.

Question 13

Looking at the airport diagram, which marking represents a runway safety area / OFZ and runway approach area boundary?

Answer 13

G - Yellow background with a black inscription with a graphic depicting the pavement holding position.

Question 14

Automatic Terminal information service (ATIS) is the continuous broadcast of recorded information concerning.

Answer 14

noncontrol information in selected high - activity terminal areas.

Question 15

What is the most hazardous wind condition when taxiing a tricycle gear airplane?

Answer 15

Quartering tailwind.

Question 16

What colors are associated with the different airspace classes?

Answer 16

Class B - Solid Blue. Class C Solid Magenta. Class D - Dotted blue. Class E dotted Magenta.

Question 17

The order of operations regarding the strokes of a typical four - stroke per cycle airplane engine is?

Answer 17

Intake, Compression, Power & exhaust.

Question 18

The wind condition that requires maximum caution when avoiding wake turbulence on landing is a

Answer 18

Light, quartering tailwind. (pilots must be especially alert in calm wind or in a light tailwind situation)

Question 19

Which wind condition would be most critical when taxiing a nosewheel equipped high - wing airplane?

Answer 19

Quartering tailwind. (When taxiing a nose-wheel equipped high wing airplane the most critical wind position is a quartering tailwind because it could lift the tail and push the airplane over on its prop and far wingtip.)

Question 20

How often must the aircraft’s ELT be inspected?

Answer 20

Within 12 calendar months of the last inspection

Question 21

Wingtip Vortices are created only when an aircraft is?

Answer 21

Developing lift.

Question 22

The only instrument that provides an instantaneous, direct indication of the airplane’s pitch and bank attitude is the:

Answer 22

Attitude indicator

Question 23

What is induced drag?

Answer 23

The rearward retarding force caused by the wings creating lift.

Question 24

A chair-type parachute must have been packed by a certificated and appropriately rated parachute rigger within the preceding.

Answer 24

180 days
