Q

What’s the best use of graphs for performance and weight and balance

A

Conservative Data, use one higher level of conservative data to provide safety, increase theoretical situation to provide safety.

Q

Aft and Forward CG effects

A

Aft CG:
Decreases lateral stability
(Less Leverage with CG to Tail)

Lower Stall Speed

Higher Cruise Speed due to more forward pressure

Poor Stall/Spin Recovery

Forward CG:

Increased lateral Stability
(More Leverage with Tail)

Higher Stall Speed
(Due to higher AoA at level altitude)

Decreased cruise speed
(Due to trying maintain level altitude requires more back pressure increasing AoA)

Q

Stalls Defined

A

Caused are when the airfoil reaches a critical angle of attack where air can no longer flow over the wings and lift is no longer produced.

Weight has a direct relation to lift which increases or decreases stall speed depending on how much lift is required to hold the aircraft in the air

Altitude affects air density which increases stall speed

Angle of Bank affects stall speed due to load factor increasing weight

Indications of a stall: Horn, Warning Light, Yoke lack of control, rudder lack of control

(Put this in weight and lift relation later)

Q

Spins defined, recovery, and aggravated spins

A

Spins are aggravated stalls, which are caused by improper rudder or aileron control

Recovery of a spin is too remove throttle, apply full opposite rudder, keep ailerons neutral, and push elevator inward

Spins can be aggravated to turn into inverted spins if ailerons are used

17
Q

When should you do the weight and balance

A

You should know the weight range of before the flight and at the end of the flight

18
Q

Wing Loading increases what?

A

Stall speed by increasing AoA

Load on aircraft structure

19
Q

How does slow flight work

A

Pulling back power and Increasing AoA to remain level altitude

20
Q

Which profile chart is better to understand the range, for all atmospheric conditions

A

The Endurance Profile

21
Q

When are you supposed to change VORs on an airway

A

Halfway to the airway

22
Q

Where does To and From lie on each radial

A

The 180 degrees on the half of the circle closest to the radial is From and the 180 degrees on the furthest half of the circle from the radial is To

23
Q

What is Fuel directly related to

A

Gallons, Weight, and Time to stay in the air

24
Q

When using profile charts what should you be aware of

A

How does Power % affect flight management

25
Q

Do MOAs require clearance to enter

A

no

26
Q

What do the large quadrant numbers represent

A

The Altitude where you will miss the highest object in that quadrants altitude

27
Q

What is Two-Way communication

A

When the ATC calls your callsign

28
Q

What do Arrows on airways represent

A

Where the nearest ground station is

29
Q

Which procedure should be made when radio communication is out entering a controlled airport

A

Enter in normal pattern procedures, make 500’ wider traffic pattern and rock wings as hard as possible when passing tower.

30
Q

What do Large Rectangles represent on runways

A

1000’ from threshold

31
Q

What do double white lines on runways represent

A

every 500’

32
Q

Are runways magnetic or true

A

Magnetic

33
Q

Are winds aloft given in magnetic or true

A

True

34
Q

What are winds units in large distances and airports

A

At airports winds are magnetic because runways are magnetic

At long ranges winds are true

35
Q

How can you prepare if something goes wrong during a flight

A

Survival Gear, Natural Fiber Clothing, and a way to create heat

36
Q

Form Drag Defined

A

The separation of air and the wake created by the separation, form drag is dependent on the shape of the obstruction.

37
Q

Skin Friction Drag Defined

A

friction of air and surface moving through it

38
Q

Interference Drag Defined

A

mixing of airflow at conjunctions between different aircraft parts air streamline flow, create a interference between each other.

39
Q

Induced Drag Defined

A

high pressure chases low pressure and at the wingtips the high pressure moves around the wing and chases the low pressure creating a vortice.

40
Q

Ground Effect Defined

A

Coming into interference with the ground drag flowing off the aircraft comes into contact with the ground increasing pressure as it is put under the aircraft creating a cushion of air.

41
Q

VOT defined

A

VOR testing facility
