Answer 22

crabbing

Question 23

You are in straight and level flight when you notice the ball on the turn and slip indicator is not centered. What does this indicate?

Answer 23

The aircraft is out of yaw trim.

Question 24

Describes the relationship of pitch and power when comparing a level turn to straight and level flight?

Answer 24

Both pitch and power increase to perform a level turn.

Question 25

You are descending to 4000 feet at 200 KIAS. Your VSI indicates a 1500 fpm descent. At what altitude will you begin your level off?

Answer 25

4150

Answer 28

7700

Question 29

Visual accommodation refers to the time it takes your eyes to focus. To ensure you will be able to see and recognize traffic, how long should you clear a given area to be sure your eyes have had sufficient time to focus?

Answer 29

2-3 seconds

Question 30

What are the procedural steps for the control and performance concept?

Answer 30

E-T-C-A

Question 31

What is Composite cross-check?

Answer 31

Composite cross-check is a two-step process of achieving an attitude by aligning part of the aircraft with a landmark or feature in the environment and verifying that the aircraft has attained the desired position by cross-checking performance instruments.

Question 32

You are 25° off heading, how many degrees of bank will you use to correct?

Answer 32

25°

If the deviation is more than 30°, use 30° of bank to make the correction.
