Exam questions 2 Flashcards
What is ground effect?
The result of the interference of the surface of the earth with the airflow patterns about an airplane.
If an emergency situation requires downwind landing, pilot should expect faster
Groundspeed at touchdown, a longer ground roll and a likelihood, of overshooting desired touchpoint.
How is the stalling speed or minimum steady flight speed in the landing configuration symbolized?
VSO (lower limit of the white Arc)
NTSB part 830 states that an aircraft operator must immediately notify them:
In the case of an aircraft accident
At the beginning of a turn from a northerly heading:
The compass will show a turn in the opposite direction
If the engine oil temperature and cylinder head temperature gauges have exceeded their normal operating range, the pilot may have been operating with.
too much power and with the mixture set too lean.
Ground effect is most likely to result in which problem?
Becoming airborne before reaching recommended takeoff speed.
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?
Wait until the temperature decreases, and recalculate the takeoff performance.
Wingtip vortices created by large aircraft tend to.
Sink below the aircraft generating turbulence.
What is the minimum visibility for a pilot to receive a land and hold short clearance?
3 statute miles
The width of a federal airway from either side of the centerline is.
4 nautical miles
Aircraft within 30 miles of a class B primary airport from the surface upward to 10,000 MSL must equipped with:
An operable transponder having either Mode S or 4096 code capability with Mode C automatic altitude reporting capability, and ADS-B out.
The person who relies on memory for recurring tasks often neglects:
Checklists
The uncontrolled firing of the fuel/air charge in advance of normal spark ignition is known as:
Pre - ignition
What must a pilot be aware of as a result of ground effect?
Induced drag decreases; therefore, any excess speed at the point of flare may cause considerable floating.
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:
By radio or telephone to the nearest FAA ATC facility of FSS
Which color identifies the power - off stalling speed in a specified configuration?
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)
What procedure is recommended when climbing or descending VFR on an airway?
Execute gentle banks left and right for continuous visual scan.
What condition applies when taking off at a high density altitude?
Higher induced drag
When landing, you spot another airplane halfway down the runway. How should you proceed?
Go-around
Why is it a good idea to visually inspect to make sure that the crankcase breather lines are free of ice?
Ice may have formed as a result of the crankcase vapors freezing after the engine has been turned off.
How Should the ailerons be positioned when landing in a crosswind?
up aileron into the wind.
What is the difference between a normal landing and a crosswind landing?
Aileron up on the upwind wing
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?
3,302.5
Unless otherwise specified, federal airways include that Class E airspace extending upward from?
1,200 feet up to 17,999 MSL
When making a night approach to land, you should use:
The same approach as during daytime
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:
an emergency
Which incident requires an immediate notification be made to the nearest NTSB field office?
An overdue aircraft that is believed to be involved in an accident.
A Military air station can be identified by a rotating beacon that emits.
two quick, white flashes between green flashes.
