Information Flashcards
Where can you find the INOP equipment checklist
91.213 and AC 91-67
Variation
The angle between True North and Magnetic North
Where can you find a list of Preventive Maintenance you’re able to perform
Appendix A, Part 43
What does Category, Class, and Type define
Category is Aircraft, Balloon, Rotorcraft, etc.
Class is SEL, MEL, SES, MES
Type is C172M, C180, Piper Cherokee, etc.
Vicinity Defined
5 S.M. from your current position
What are the rules on Substance
91.17 states No person may act or attempt to act as PIC or crew member within 8 hours after consumption of alcohol, under the influence of alcohol (includes hangovers), using any drug that affects a person that’ll affect safety, and having a BAC of 0.04 or greater
Airport Light Gun Signals
Green (Air: Cleared to Land, Ground: Cleared for takeoff)
Flashing Green (Air: Return to Land, Ground: Cleared to Taxi)
Red (Air: Give way to other aircraft, Ground: Stop moving)
Flashing Red (Air: Airport unsafe do not land, Ground: Taxi Clear of the runway)
Red/Green Flashing (Exercise Extreme Caution)
White (Ground: Return to starting position)
AFM Requirements
AFM are required for aircraft that have been manufactured after a certain date, it’s required to be on board, it’s defined as a serial number part that is updated
What’s the best use of graphs for performance and weight and balance
Conservative Data, use one higher level of conservative data to provide safety, increase theoretical situation to provide safety.
Aft and Forward CG effects
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)
Stalls Defined
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)
Spins defined, recovery, and aggravated spins
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
What are some corrective actions in turbulence
Slow Aircraft down
What are some tools you can use to clear ear and sinus blockage
Gum, Mints, and anything that requires chewing
