Q

What is a temperature inversion

A

It’s an inversion of the standard. Air cools as it rises. So in higher altitudes the air would get warmer

Q

What type of ailerons do we have.

Describe them

A

Differential freise ailerons

Begin turn @30deg add 100-200 rpm of hp
Altitude with back pressure
Roll out 25 deg before heading

Airspeed. Altitude. Bank. Heading
90kias +- 10. +- 100’. 45 deg +-5. +-10 deg

50
Q

Describe upslope fog

A

Result of moist stable air being cooled adiabatically as it moves up sloping terrain.

Once the upslope wind ceases the fog dissipates. Upslope fog is often very dense and extends to high altitudes.

How to preform slow flight maneuver and thresholds

A

After clearing turns
1500 rpms
Landing configuration
Slow to 5-10 kias above stall speed ~ 45-50 kias

Pitch is for airspeed. Power for altitude

Recover
Max power/maintain altitude/ slowly reduce flaps

Airspeed Altitude. Bank. Heading
Plus 10 kias. _+ 100’. _+10 deg. _+ 10 deg
No stall horn

52

Low level temperature inversion

Wind sheer in a frontal zone. Or thunderstorm.

Clear air turbulence. (CAT) at high altitudes associated with jet streams

53
Q

Name the types of structural icing that may occur

A

Clear ice- drops smooth out creating a solid smooth sheet over time

Rime ice- small drops freeze instantly

Mixed ice- when drops vary in size or when mixed with snow. The ice particles imbed in the clear ice building a very rough layer
