Question 1

8901. During engine operation at speeds lower than those for which the constant speed prop control can govern in the increase RPM position, the prop will?

Answer 1

Remain in the full low pitch position.

Question 2

8914. Which of the following best describes the blade movement of a prop that is in high RPM position when reversing action is begun?

Answer 2

Low pitch directly to reverse pitch.

Question 3

8919. During which of the following conditions of flight will the blade pitch angle of a constant speed prop be the greatest?

Answer 3

High speed high altitude cruising flight.

Question 4

8925. Why is a constant speed flyweight prop normally placed in full high pitch position before the engine is stopped?

Answer 4

To prevent exposure and corrosion of the pitch changing mechanism.

Question 5

8930. Which of the following best describes the blade movement of a full feathering constant speed prop that is in the low RPM position when the feathering action is begun?

Answer 5

High pitch directly to feather position.

Question 6

8936. Which of the following forces or combo of forces operates to move the blades of a constant speed flyweight type prop to the high pitch position?

Answer 6

Centrifugal force acting on the flyweights.

Question 7

8938. Which of the following best describes the blade movement of a feathering prop that is in the high RPM position when the feathering action is begun?

Answer 7

Low pitch through high pitch to feather position.

Question 8

8954. Geometric pitch of a prop is defined as the?

Answer 8

Effective pitch plus slippage.

Question 9

8958. What are the rotational speed and blade pitch angle requirements of a constant speed prop during takeoff?

Answer 9

High speed low pitch angle.
