Exam questions 2

Question 1

What is ground effect?

Answer 1

The result of the interference of the surface of the earth with the airflow patterns about an airplane.

Question 2

If an emergency situation requires downwind landing, pilot should expect faster

Answer 2

Groundspeed at touchdown, a longer ground roll and a likelihood, of overshooting desired touchpoint.

Question 3

How is the stalling speed or minimum steady flight speed in the landing configuration symbolized?

Answer 3

VSO (lower limit of the white Arc)

Question 4

NTSB part 830 states that an aircraft operator must immediately notify them:

Answer 4

In the case of an aircraft accident

Question 5

At the beginning of a turn from a northerly heading:

Answer 5

The compass will show a turn in the opposite direction

Question 6

If the engine oil temperature and cylinder head temperature gauges have exceeded their normal operating range, the pilot may have been operating with.

Answer 6

too much power and with the mixture set too lean.

Question 6

Ground effect is most likely to result in which problem?

Answer 6

Becoming airborne before reaching recommended takeoff speed.

Question 6

A pilot and two passengers landed on a 2,100 foot east- west gravel strip with an elevation of 1,800 feet. The temperature is warmer than expected and after computing the density altitude it is determined the takeoff distance over 50 foot obstacle is 1,980 feet. The airplane is 75 pounds under gross weight. What would be the best choice?

Answer 6

Wait until the temperature decreases, and recalculate the takeoff performance.

Question 7

Wingtip vortices created by large aircraft tend to.

Answer 7

Sink below the aircraft generating turbulence.

Question 8

What is the minimum visibility for a pilot to receive a land and hold short clearance?

Answer 8

3 statute miles

Question 9

The width of a federal airway from either side of the centerline is.

Answer 9

4 nautical miles

Question 10

Aircraft within 30 miles of a class B primary airport from the surface upward to 10,000 MSL must equipped with:

Answer 10

An operable transponder having either Mode S or 4096 code capability with Mode C automatic altitude reporting capability, and ADS-B out.

Question 11

The person who relies on memory for recurring tasks often neglects:

Answer 11

Checklists

Question 12

The uncontrolled firing of the fuel/air charge in advance of normal spark ignition is known as:

Answer 12

Pre - ignition

Question 13

What must a pilot be aware of as a result of ground effect?

Answer 13

Induced drag decreases; therefore, any excess speed at the point of flare may cause considerable floating.

Question 14

while approaching to land, the pilot had to perform evasive maneuvers to avoid a near midair collision. (NMAC). The pilot and flight crew members should report this incident immediately:

Answer 14

By radio or telephone to the nearest FAA ATC facility of FSS

Question 15

Which color identifies the power - off stalling speed in a specified configuration?

Answer 15

Lower limit of the green arc. (Upper limit of green arc rep the maximum structural cruising speed of the aircraft) (Upper limit of the white arc represents the aircrafts maximum flap extension speed)

Question 16

What procedure is recommended when climbing or descending VFR on an airway?

Answer 16

Execute gentle banks left and right for continuous visual scan.

Question 17

What condition applies when taking off at a high density altitude?

Answer 17

Higher induced drag

Question 18

When landing, you spot another airplane halfway down the runway. How should you proceed?

Answer 18

Go-around

Question 19

Why is it a good idea to visually inspect to make sure that the crankcase breather lines are free of ice?

Answer 19

Ice may have formed as a result of the crankcase vapors freezing after the engine has been turned off.

Question 20

How Should the ailerons be positioned when landing in a crosswind?

Answer 20

up aileron into the wind.

Question 21

What is the difference between a normal landing and a crosswind landing?

Answer 21

Aileron up on the upwind wing

Question 22

A 100 hour inspection was due at 3302.5 hours. The 100 hour inspection was actually done at 3309.5 hours. When is the next 100 hour inspection due?

Answer 22

3,302.5

Question 23

Unless otherwise specified, federal airways include that Class E airspace extending upward from?

Answer 23

1,200 feet up to 17,999 MSL

Question 24

When making a night approach to land, you should use:

Answer 24

The same approach as during daytime

Question 25

When an ATC clearance has been obtained, no pilot in command may deviate from that clearance, unless that pilot obtains an amended clearance. The one exception to this regulation is:

Answer 25

an emergency

Question 26

Which incident requires an immediate notification be made to the nearest NTSB field office?

Answer 26

An overdue aircraft that is believed to be involved in an accident.

Question 27

A Military air station can be identified by a rotating beacon that emits.

Answer 27

two quick, white flashes between green flashes.
