47
Q

Single engine service ceiling

A

When climb rate can’t achieve more than 50fpm

48
Q

Seminole single engine climb performance ISA day

A

160fpm

49
Q

What is the decision speed

A

The point where gear is taken up as there is no more remaining runway available to land in an emergency. 88kts

50
Q

What is one of the best indications of a failed engine when under the hood

A

EGT will drop

51
Q

What is the max speed for the autopilot

A

185kts

52
Q

What is the oil pressure range

A

15-115 psi

53
Q

What is the gyro suction range

A

4.5-5.2

54
Q

what is the CHT range?

A

200-500

55
Q

What is asymmetric fuel consumption

A

60L

56
Q

Oil pressure send prop to fine or course pitch?

A

fine

57
Q

In the event of oil pressure loss, will the prop go fine or coarse

A

coarse

58
Q

Describe the CSU

A

pitch levers are really a ‘request lever’. You set an rpm, and the CSU will try and maintain that rpm. If the manifold pressure is not enough, then it won’t be able to hold that rpm.

59
Q

When considering to fix the prop instead of feather, what process is involved?

A
CCFMOST
Carby heat 
Cowl flaps
Fuel selector, quantity, pump
Oil Ts and Ps
Throttles
60
Q

What do we need to consider when we feather an enginr

A
SELFDR
Secure engine
Electrical load reduced
LSA (ac can't hold certain altitudes with one engine)
Fuel
Diversion
Radios
61
Q

what is Va

A

Va is the speed at which an aircraft will stall before structural damage will occur during turbulent conditions or during rapid control surface deflection.

62
Q

how do we alleviate the static vent of water

A

Water dump switch front left panel

63
Q

Where does nitrogen pressure send the prop?

A

towards coarse

64
Q

In the event of a loss of nitrogen pressure, where would the props move

A

towards fine

65
Q

how many seconds does it take for a prop to feather

A

6 seconds approx

66
Q

what can make the gear lights difficult to see sometimes?

A

When the nav lights are on during the day the gear lights dim, and it can be difficult to see, so turn them off to make sure that this doesn’t happen.

67
Q

where is the hydraulic pump located?

A

In the baggage compartment underneath a panel

68
Q

what degree of turn can the nose wheel achieve

A

30 degree

69
Q

what is the turning radius of the ac

A

33ft

70
Q

how much rpm is required to maintain full 60amps

A

2000rpm

71
Q

What instruments are powered by the vacuum pumo

A

AH and DG

72
Q

where is the emergency exit

A

left hand window

73
Q

How do you operate the emergency exit?

A

remove left vertical thermoplastic panel, and pull the lever. The window will fall free from the fuselage.

74
Q

Why are there two different stall warning detectors?

A

the inboard detector is used when flaps 25 or 40 are set, and the outboard is used for all other settings.

75
Q

Can you test the stall warnings on the ground?

A

nope, squat switch inhibits it

76
Q

wingspan?

A

38’6.6”

77
Q

length

A

just under 28’

78
Q

min oil pressure for idling?

A

25

79
Q

min oil pressure for cruise?

A

55

80
Q

grade of oil?

A

20w50 or 15w50 (ashless dispersant)

81
Q

oil psi range? (normal?)

A

25-115 (55-95)

82
Q

min and max fuel pressure?

A

0.5-8psi

83
Q

does the seminole have a critical engine?

A

No, the left rotates clockwise (as viewed from the cockpit), and the right rotates anti-clockwise, and so they both have the same effect in terms of engine failure.

84
Q

Describe coarse and fine pitch

A

Fine pitch allows a higher rpm to be used, and thus allows more power to be generated, especially at low speeds. The downside to this is that greater drag is caused.
Coarse pitch is used for cruise because the lower rpm setting means less fuel consumption and less drag, which improves fuel efficiency and range.
