What is an important airspeed limitation that is not color coded on airspeed indicators?
1. Never-exceed speed.
2. Maximum structural cruising speed.
3. Maneuvering speed.
- Maneuvering speed.
Explanation: Maneuvering speed is an important airspeed limitation that is not listed. It is not listed because maneuvering speed changes with weight.
(PAR-FI2-28) How do variations in temperature affect the altimeter?
1. Lower temperatures lower the pressure levels and the indicated altitude is lower than true altitude.
2. Pressure levels are raised on warm days and the indicated altitude is lower than true altitude.
3. Higher temperatures expand the pressure levels and the indicated altitude is higher than true altitude.
- Pressure levels are raised on warm days and the indicated altitude is lower than true altitude.
Explanation: think of pressure when temperature varies
(PAR-FI2-25) If a flight is made from an area of high pressure into an area of lower pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted, the altimeter will indicate
1. The actual altitude above sea level.
2. Lower than the actual altitude above sea level.
3. Higher than the actual altitude above sea level.
- Higher than the actual altitude above sea level.
Explanation: Think “High to Low, look out below”. The indicated altitude will read higher than you are, but you are lower. This is why you need to “look below” to see where you are in reference to the ground
