MEP Test Flashcards
With an indication that the main wheels are down but not the nose what surface wood you elect to land on?
Grass because the surface is softer
Using bank towards the live engine will assist in direction control?
What will the slip and ball indicat?
As bank is increased the ball will move further away from the central position.
What factors increa m crit with Assym aircraft?
Increasing power on the live engine
Icing at FL50 with de icing boots fitted
Climb because droplet size is bigger in cooler temperatures. Or get on top of weather.
Assym with 5 deg towards live, where should the balance ball be?
1/2 ball towards the live engine
Crossing surfaces in multi engine
Shallow angle as possible to optimise prop clearance
Where does the CSU option it’s oil from?
Engine
What actions should you take if you fee vibrations
Increase both engines in turn feel for changes in amplitude to vibration
What’s the danger with using the interior lights during the day?
The gear and flap indicator lights will dim and may not be visible
At what speed (TDI) does the transponder change from GND to alt
40kts
Following a engine shit down in trimmed conditions with the ball centralised:
The dead engine leads the live engine along the line of flight
Stall recovery throttle should be opened?
Smoothly to ensure power is evenly produced to prevent spinning the aircraft
Moving the C of g forward will do what to Vmc?
Forward pitch’s down so greater stability so lowers Vmc
When should you use de icing boot?
Wait until you can see build up of 1/4-1/2 inch
How are the controls connected?
Ailerons , flaps and elevator by control rods. Rudder and trimmers by cable
