General 4 Flashcards
what are the four fundamental risk element in the aeronautical decision making process that comprise any given aviation situation?
Pilot, aircraft , environment mission.
When should a flight instructor begin teaching aeronautical decision making (ADM) to a student?
As soon as the student is able to control the aircraft during basic maneuvers.
Risk management, as part of the aeronautical decision making [ADM) process, relies on which
features to reduce the risks associated with each flight?
Situational awareness , problem recognition, and good judgment
The aeronautical decision making (ADM) process identifies several steps involved in good
decision making. One of the steps is
identifying personal attitudes hazardous to safe flight
Examples of classic behavioral traps that experienced pilots may fall into are to
Complete the flight as planned, please passengers, meet schedules and get the job done
tendencies or behavior patterns which must be identified and eliminated
pee, pressure, loss of situational awareness and operating with inadequate fuel reserves
During training flights, an instructor should interject realistic distractions to determine if a
student can
maintain aircraft control while his/her attention is diverted.
What precautions should be taken with respect to aircraft oxygen systems?
Ensure that industrial oxygen has not been used to replenish the system.
What type of oxygen system is most commonly found in general aviation aircraft?
Continuous flow.
Anemic hypoxia has the same symptoms as hypoxic hypoxia but it is most often a result of
a leaking exhaust manifold
If both the ram-air input and drain hole of the pitot system are blocked, what airspeed
indication can be expected?
No variation of indicated in level flight if large power changes are made
Which of the following markings are associated with a non-precision instrument runway?
Threshold, designation, centerline and aiming point
What is the sequence of procedure for spin recovery?
1) Decrease Power
2) Neutralize ailerons
3) Apply full opposite ridder
4) positive, brisk straight forward movement of the elevator control forward of neutral to break the stall, then after spin rotation stops and neutralize the rudder
The ‘runway threshold bar’ markings indicate
the beginning of a runway available for landing
Within aircraft movement areas, destination signs” identify he
direction of the take-off runways
