Q

You are flying at FL370 in cruise flight, and the OAT increases 5 degrees C, and the headwind increases 5kts. What happens to your TAS and GS?
TAS increases by 4kts, therefore GS increases by 1kt.
TAS increases by 6kts, therefore GS increases by 1kt.
TAS increases by 10kts, therefore GS increases by 1kt.

A

TAS increases by 6kts, therefore GS increases by 1kt.
Correct
TAS increases approx. 1.2kts/1o C increase. So 50C x 1.2kts = 6KTAS increase
6KTAS-5KTS headwind = 1kt GS increase.

Q

Flying an approach to rwy 18, circle to land rwy 7 and lose sight of the rwy. You should-
Turn in the shortest direction to rwy 18 and execute the published missed approach (for rwy 7).
Turn in the longest direction to rwy 7 and execute the published missed approach (for rwy 18).
Turn in the shortest direction to rwy 7 and execute the published missed approach (for rwy 18).

A

Turn in the shortest direction to rwy 7 and execute the published missed approach (for rwy 18).
TURN TO THE RUNWAY YOU ARE CIRCLING 7 BUT YOU HAVE TO DO THE MAP FOR THE CHART YOU HAVE OUT 18

Q

You are flying at FL230 and told to slow down, then descend to 12,000. RAT will-
Ram Air Temp remains the same.
Ram Air Temp increases.
Ram Air Temp will decrease.

A

Ram Air Temp will decrease.
Correct
There are two types of air temperature measurements on aircraft, Ram Air Temperature and Static Air Temperature. (slower aircraft don’t normally have RAT gages) Ram Air Temperature, sometimes known as Total Air Temperature, is the air temperature outside the aircraft increased by the heat resulting from the compressibility of the air. The faster the aircraft, the more the rise in the temperature. Static Air Temperature, also known as Outside Air Temperature, is a temperature reading corrected for the compressibility rise to give a true outside air temperature which is used in all sorts of calculations relating to engine performance, aircraft speed, etc.

Q
What is the proper pilot action on a rejected take off?
  Spoilers, Reverse, Brakes.
  Brakes only.
  Reversers only.
  Max braking only.

Q

What temperature does jet fuel freeze at? -10C, -20C, -30C, -40C?

  • 30C
  • 40C
  • 10C
  • 20C
A

-40C

18
Q

If you have a strong headwind, will your descent point be closer or further away from the fix?
Closer, lower ground speed.
Further, higher ground speed.
Closer, higher ground speed.

A

Closer, lower ground speed.

19
Q
Where does velocity begin to accelerate in an engine?
  Exhaust section.
  Turbine section.
  Diffuser Section.
  Compressor.
A

Compressor.

TRICKY ONE, IT DOES BEGIN TO ACCELERATE BUT NOT MUCH.

20
Q

What effect does wing dihedral have on lateral stability?
Equal stability.
Less stability.
Greater stability.

A

Greater stability.
Correct
When aircraft is rolled about the longitudinal axis, the low wing has a change in relative wind thus increasing AOA and lift, bringing it back up to level.

21
Q

Choose the correct statement
An aircraft with a high aspect ratio (fighter) has a high L/Dmax and will glide less far than an aircraft with a high aspect ratio (glider).
An aircraft with a low aspect ratio (fighter) has a high L/Dmax and will glide less far than an aircraft with a high aspect ratio (glider).
An aircraft with a high aspect ratio (glider) has a high L/Dmax and will glide farther than an aircraft with a low aspect ratio.

A

An aircraft with a high aspect ratio (glider) has a high L/Dmax and will glide farther than an aircraft with a low aspect ratio.

22
Q

When does the flow velocity greatly accelerate in a turbine engine?
Diffuser section.
Combustion section.
Turbine Section.

A

Turbine Section.

23
Q

What effect does a swept wing have on directional stability?
Less stability.
Equal stability.
Greater stability.

A

Greater stability.
Correct
When aircraft is rotated about the vertical axis (yaw) the advancing wing presents a larger wing area (less sweep) to the relative wind, thus producing more lift and induced drag slowing it down.

24
Q
You are on a visual approach at Denver and are at 7000’ MSL, the TDZE is 5200’. When would you descend for a 3-degree glidepath?
  5NM.
  6NM.
  3NM.
  10NM.
A

6NM
Correct
1800ft / 300ft/nm = 6NM

25
Q
What affects turn rate? Select the best choice.
  Airspeed and bank angle.
  Weight and airspeed.
  Velocity and wing loading.
  Weight and bank angle.
A

Airspeed and bank angle.
