Q

Circle to land, what is the alternate missed approach.

A

If you lose visual reference to the airport while circling the best advice, and what is recommended in the Instrument Procedures Handbook, is to make an immediate climbing turn to the center of the airport. The reason being is that you are protected at MDA to a certain radius around the airport. Once you have re-intercepted the approach course turn outbound and follow the missed approach procedure.

Q

What are 3 factors that affect Vmc? Pick one of them and explain it.

A

Density altitude: the higher it is, the less thrust is produced, hence Vmc goes down. Gear: Keel effect, if gear is down it helps the plane stabilize, resulting in lower Vmc. Center of gravity: If aft, the rudder is less effective, resulting in higher Vmc.

A

493kts

0) 1 mach = 666.7 knots so 666.7x.74=493kts

63
Q

What is a TAA on Jepps plates?

A

Beginning 24 Feb 2000, the FAA is introducing two new items. The first is a new RNAV approach procedure; the second is the introduction of the new Ter- minal Arrival Area (TAA) concept. New RNAV Chart Format RNAV instrument approach procedure charts will now incorporate all types of approaches using Area Navigation systems, both ground based and satellite based. These approaches are designed using a stabilized FAF to TCH descent. How this stabilized descent is accomplished is dependant on the equipment and authorization available to the pilot. Additionally, much like existing ILS/Localizer approaches, these new RNAV approach plates will depict both precision and non-precision approaches in the profile view and will carry corresponding minimums in the minimums band.

64
Q

What aircraft configuration has the most wake turb?

A

Heavy slow and clean

65
Q

Min fuel vs emergency fuel?

A

Minimum fuel Advisory is a point in which the aircraft fuel is at a state in which reaching the destination, the pilot cannot accept any undue delay (not an emergency). Emergency Fuel is a point in which, at the judgement of the pilot, it is necessary to proceed directly to the airport of intended landing due to low fuel (is an emergency).

71
Q

Convert .xx mach number to Statute miles per hour.

A

1 mach = 761.2 smph

72
Q

How does an airplane stall?

A

An aircraft stalls when the streamlined/laminar airflow over the wing’s upper surface, which produces lift, breaks away from the surface when the critical angle of attack is exceeded, irrespective of airspeed, and becomes turbulent, causing a loss in lift.
