A

5 minutes

24
Q

How long is the class 2 good for?

30
Q

What does an airport need to qualify as an alternate?

A

31
Q

What is the minimum takeoff weather minimum?

A

1 SM vis, or lowest applicable approach minimum

32
Q

Can we do terminal IFR in class G

A

Yes

33
Q

Can we do RNAV 1 approaches?

A

Yes

34
Q

Can we do land and hold short?

A

Yes, with restrictions

35
Q

What are the LAHSO restrictions?

A

Have to have landing distance +1000ft, must be dry runway, 1500/5 weather unless there is a PAPI/VASI otherwise 1000/3, no wind shear within 20 minutes, no more than 3 knots tailwind

36
Q

When should you check the oil?

A

Within 10 minutes of landing.

37
Q

If the engine driven fuel pump fails what will also likely be failed?

A

External Oil Scavenge pump

38
Q

If the oil scavenge pump fails, what is also likely failed?

A

The engine driven fuel pump

39
Q

What is the rated Prop RPM?

A

1700 RPM

40
Q

When does the propellor overspeed governor kick in? POG..

A

past 1768 RPM

41
Q

When does the fuel topping governor take over to regulate propellor RPM?

A

1802-1853 , the fuel topping governor lowers fuel subtly to the engine in hopes of reducing prop RPM

42
Q

How much fuel is in the collector tanks?

A

20 Gallons

43
Q

The green L/R Fuel pump lights indicate what?

A

That the pump is energized, not that it is running

44
Q

L/R FUEL LOW CAWS means what?

A

Less than 20 GAL in that tank

45
Q

FUEL PRESS CAWS means what?

A

Less than 2 PSI fuel pressure

46
Q

In a 2 battery aircraft what should you do to prevent GEN2 TIE to pop when generators are activated?

A

After starting engine, turn Batt 2 off, then turn Gen 1 on and wait until GEN 1 draw is less than 80A, then Batt 2 back on, then GEN 2 on.

47
Q

Where are Vx and Vy on the AOA indicator?

A

Vy is the fast diamond, Vx/Vg is the circle.

48
Q

How many turbines are in the compressor section?

A

4 axial flow compressors and 1 centrifugal impeller

49
Q

How many turbines are in the power section?

A

1 compressor turbine and 2 power turbines

50
Q

What kind of engine is in the PC12?

A

PT6A-67B or some have -67P

51
Q

What is the purpose of the bleed air valve?

A

To prevent compressor stalls during low RPM and turbulence

52
Q

Where does the ECS get its air from?

A

The compressor section, P2.5 unless idle and then assisted by P3.0

53
Q

Where do the boots get their air from?

A

P3.0 section

54
Q

Why do you sometimes need to turn the ECS off during takeoff?

A

Hot and high according to chart you turn the ECS off to shut off the P2.5 bleed in order to maximize air for the compressor to produce more power.
