SET 4 Flashcards
What does “cleared for the ILS 09R” mean?
Cleared to descend as long as you have the airport in site.
Your cleared for the visual if you want.
You are cleared to execute the published approach. Maintain any assigned altitude or airspeed restrictions until on the approach.
Maintain any assigned altitude or airspeed restrictions until on the approach.
Which of the following is true about the relationship between thrust and drag in straight and level fight?
Thrust equals total drag in level flight.
Thrust is less than drag.
Thrust is more than drag thus you travel forward.
Thrust equals total drag in level flight.
Arcing around a VOR in a strong crosswind and the wind is coming from the VOR where will the head of the needle be?
Behind the wing.
The head of the needle will be in front of the wing.
In the middle of the wing.
The head of the needle will be in front of the wing.
What is transition level?
The altitude, while descending, you would set the QNH as required.
The altitude, while descending, you would set the QNE as required.
The altitude, while climbing, you would set the QNH as required.
The altitude, while descending, you would set the QNH as required.
Correct
Transition level – Flight level descending through which altimeters must be reset to QNH as required. This is specified on ATIS or as communicated by ATC.
Taking off from runway 30, you lose the right engine after V1. What is the worst wind component? 270/30 330/30 360/30 240/30
360/30
TAKE OFF BAD LOSE ENGINE INTO WIND. GREATEST X WIND IS 360/30.
LANDING WANT TO LAND WITH GOOD ENGINE INTO WIND.
You are told to descend from FL330 to 10000ft at .76IMN and then intercept 330KIAS in descent. Does this happen at a higher or lower altitude than intercepting 250KIAS?
Lower.
It depends on the weight of the aircraft.
Higher altitude.
Lower.
Using the ITM rule. +ITM- So in a constant MACH descent, everything to the left would go up (towards the plus sign) so IAS increases. So you would pass 250KIAS on the way to 330KIAS in the descent, so capturing 330KIAS would happen at a lower altitude.
What is the purpose of the turbine section?
Convert the accelerated hot gas from the combustion chamber into energy to turn the diffuser.
Convert the accelerated hot gas from the exhaust chamber into energy to turn the compressor section.
Convert the accelerated hot gas from the combustion chamber into energy to turn the compressor section.
Convert the accelerated hot gas from the combustion chamber into energy to turn the compressor section.
When coming to land with your left engine failed. Winds are 030/30. You have your choice of runways 18/36 or 12/30. Which runway should you use? Rwy 30 Rwy 12 Rwy 18 RWY 36
RWY 36
What are the uses of a hydraulic accumulator?
It is used as a primary source at all time.
Maintains hydraulic fluid without pressure and system shock absorption during periods of high demand.
Maintains hydraulic fluid under pressure and system shock absorption during periods of high demand.
Maintains hydraulic fluid under pressure and system shock absorption during periods of high demand.
What happens to TAS/IAS/AOA if descending at a constant Mach?
TAS increases, IAS increases, AOA decreases.
TAS decreases, IAS increases, AOA decreases.
TAS increases, IAS decreases, AOA decreases.
TAS increases, IAS increases, AOA increases.
TAS increases, IAS increases, AOA decreases.
Correct
This will help. IAS, TAS, MACH or ITM. Now when you go from low (-) to high (+) add a – before ITM and a + after. So –ITM+. If you are climbing at a constant TAS, then everything to the right, M, increase. Everything to the left, I, decreases. If climbing at a constant IAS, then everything right of I, which is T, and M increase. If we are descending then switch the – and + signs.
When does timing for wake turbulence begin on departure?
Main wheel lift off.
All wheels lift off.
Nose wheel lift off of the preceding aircraft.
Nose wheel lift off of the preceding aircraft.
What start abnormality is indicated by a slight rise in EGT with RPM stabilizing below limit? Hung Start. Hot Start. Normal Start. Low Margin EGT Start.
Hung Start.
Why do aircraft systems use hydraulic fluid instead of pneumatics?
Hydraulic fluid is compressible.
Hydraulic fluid is incompressible.
Hydraulic fluid is not flammable.
Hydraulic fluid is incompressible.
Large jets need to enter the VFR pattern at what altitude? 1300’ AGL. 1000’ AGL. 1500’ AGL. 1400’ AGL.
1500’ AGL.
In an electrical malfunction, which bus do you lose first? Main AC bus. Emergency bus. Utility bus. Main DC bus.
Utility bus.
