2:13
You depart form Madrid, where the SID gradient is 5%. Your average ground speed is 250 kts. What is the minimum Rate of Climb you have to maintain (roughly) in order to comply with the gradient?
1300 ft/min
ATC requests you to report estimated time over GUNPA point. Your ground speed is 420 kts, actual time 04:12 and the distance to GUNPA is 58NM. What is the ETO GUNPA?
04:20

Hanoi
The calculated landing distance for dry conditions is 2000m. Due to a sudden rainfall, the last quarter of the runway gets wet. The landing distance on wet runway will increase by 20%. What is the total landing distance for these dry and wet runway conditions?
2100m
You receive a message from your destination airport that they need 20 minutes to decide if weather allows landing there. The fuel consumption during the hold is 2400 kg/hr. The final reserve fuel and the alternate fuel together must be at least as much as the fuel during the hold plus the fuel to destination. How much fuel do you need on board if your consumption to the destination is 20 kg per mile, and the destination is 150 miles away?
7600kg
Destination aerodrome warns you that the runway is wet because of rain, and the landing distance is 2400m. However, at the time of your arrival the rain is gone and the runway is dry. How long is the landing distance on dry runway if wet distance is 20% longer than dry distance?

You are in a descent (QNH 1013, no wind, airport elevation 0 feet) and you have 31 NM to touchdown. What should be your altitude to be on the profile?
(Note: Flight path angle 3°)
7000 ft
Where is the top of descent point (approximately) of a twin jet if you cruise FL350, QNH 1000, airport elevation 1600ft, 0 wind?
110NM
You had a five-sector day with total flight time 12:30 hours. After the first flight each flight was 40 minutes longer than the previous one. What was the flight time of the second trip?
1 hour 50 minutes
The captain asks you to check whether his calculation of flight times is correct or not, after a four-sector day. The flight times were the following: 1st sector: 1:25 2nd sector: 1:47 3rd sector: 2:11 4th sector: 2:08 What is the total flight time?
7:31
At the airport the gradient of SID is 3%. If ATC instructs you to maintain 900 ft/min Rate of Climb within a 10% margin, what minimal and maximal ground speed should you keep to comply with the given RoC?
270,330
You have just landed in Keflavik. It turns out that they provide fuel data in US Gallons. How much fuel did you roughly uplift in liters, if 520 Usg is printed on the fuel slip as fuel volume?
