Question 4

A student is facing motion problems, what can you do?

Answer 4

1) avoid lessons in turbulent conditions until becoming more
comfortable
2) opening fresh air vents, focusing on
objects outside the airplane,

Question 5

How can smokflg affect a pilot?

Answer 5

Reduces the oxygen carrying capability of the blood.

Question 6

Which indications would a pilot see while approaching to land on a runway served by a 2-
bar VASI?

Answer 6

If departing to the high side of the glidepath, the far bars will change from red to pink to white.

Question 7

An airport has pilot controlled lighting but runways without approach lights.

Answer 7

5 clicks

Question 8

The runway hold position sign denotes

Answer 8

an entrance to runway from a taxiway.

Question 9

What is the purpose for the runway hold position markings on the taxiway?

Answer 9

Identify where aircraft hold short of the runway

Question 10

What does the outbound destination sign identify?

Answer 10

Identifies direction to take-off runways.

Question 11

The taxiway ending marker

Answer 11

indicates the taxiway does not continue beyond the intersection.

Question 12

What is the purpose of No Entry sign?

Answer 12

Identifies paved area where aircraft are prohibited from entering.

Question 13

What is the purpose of the yellow demarcation bar marking?

Answer 13

Delineates runway with a displaced threshold from a blast pad, stop-way or taxiway that precedes the runway.

Question 14

What is the purpose of the yellow demarcation bar marking?

Answer 14

Delineates runway with a displaced threshold from a blast pad, stop way or taxiway that precedes
the runway

Question 15

What purpose does a “taxiway location” sign serve? It

Answer 15

identifies a taxiway on which an aircraft is located.

Question 16

When exiting the runway, the “runway exit” sign Indicates the

Answer 16

direction to turn to exit runway onto named taxiway.

Question 17

When an air traffic controller issued radar traffic information in related to the 12 hour clock the reference the controller is using is

Answer 17

aircraft’s ground track

Question 18

How does the wake turbulence vortex circulate around each wingtip?

Answer 18

outward, upward, and around each tip.

Question 19

What effect would a crosswind of 5 knots or less have on the wingtip vortices generated by a
large aircraft that had just taken off?

Answer 19

The upwind vortex would tend to remain on the runway longer than the downwind vortex.

Question 20

During a takeoff made behind a departing large jet airplane, the pilot can minimize the hazard
of wingtip vortices by

Answer 20

being airborne prior to reaching the jet’s flightpath until able to turn clear of its wake.

Question 21

When larding behind a large Jet aircraft, at which point on the runway should you plan to Iand?

Answer 21

Beyond the jet’s touch down point.

Question 22

Answer 22

6 miles
