Stage 68 Flashcards

1
Q

Why do we need to add left rudder when flying in cruise?

A

Because our C172s have all 3 counteractive measures for Left-Turning Tendencies that create an imbalance when in straight and level flight

Q

How would you execute a Chandelle?

A
  • MRA (Dual) 1,500’ AGL
  • Clearing turns
  • 105 knots
    1. Bank 30 Degrees
    2. SMOOTHLY Apply full power
    3. Pitch to maintain coordinated climbing turn to 90 degree point
    4. Upon reaching 90 point, rollout to 180 degree point
    5. Complete rollout at minimum controllable airspeed

Q

How would you execute a Lazy Eight?

A
  • MRA (Dual) 1,500’ AGL
  • Clearing turns
  • 105 knots (Power remains fixed)
    1. Enter climbing turn to 45 degree reference point (max. pitch up ATTITUDE, 15 degrees bank)
    2. Pass through 45 degree point, continue to 90 degree point (Decrease pitch attitude, increase bank to 30 degrees)
    3. Complete 90 degree turn (max. BANK angle, minimum airspeed, level pitch attitude)
    4. Pass through 90 degree point, continue to 135 degree point (Decrease pitch attitude, decrease bank to 15 degrees)

Q

How would you execute Eights-on-Pylons?

A
  1. Set power and lock to enter at 95 knots
  2. Select 2 points aprox. 1nm apart that are aligned perpendicular to the wind
  3. Enter diagonally between the pylons (high GS, high PA) to make first turn INTO the wind (low GS, low PA)
  4. Adjust to keep wingtip on pylon

Q

Why does Va increase with weight? (draw picture)

A
  • Critical AOA never changes, but as weight increases you are flying closer to the critical AOA and stall speed (hence stall the plane before it breaks)

  2. Master MEL
  3. Preamble
  4. Letter of Authorization
92
Q

VR-1234
IR-123
What are these examples of?

A
VR-1234 = a Visual MTR with 1 or more segments BELOW 1,500' AGL
IR-123 = an IFR MTR with 1 or more segments ABOVE 1,500' AGL
93
Q

What factor affect stall speed?

A
  • Air density
  • Load Factor
  • A/c weight
  • Coefficient of lift
94
Q

How does an aft CG affect a/c performance and stability?

A
  • Increased cruise speed

- Decrease in longitudinal stability, stall speed and spin recovery

95
Q

What effect does humidity and pressure have on a/c performance?

A

High Humidity = Low Pressure

This DECREASES a/c performance because there are fewer air molecules, results in less lift being produced

96
Q

Which way does CG move with fuel burn in our C172s?

A

Forward? but not by much

97
Q

What is the difference between Va and Vno?

A
Va = (90 or 105) normal maneuvering speed with gusts (stall the plane before it breaks)
Vno = (129) max. structural cruising speed, smooth air operations only
98
Q

Why does Va change with weight?

A

The light the a/c, the more subject it is to feeling excess Gs

99
Q

Joe Pilot owns a Cessna 172 and is a commercial pilot. Joe’s friend approaches him and asks if Joe will fly him to MSP in the 172. Joe’s friend will cover all of the expenses and pay Joe $200.00 for his trouble. Can Joe legally make the flight?

A

No! Why? Common Carriage

100
Q

Joe is a commercial pilot and can fly for compensation or hire. However, he does not hold an air carrier (135) certificate and cannot operate in air transportation without one. What if Joe’s friend will only pay the direct operating expenses of the flight, is it legal then?

A

NO! Joe must pay his pro rata share!

101
Q

Joe is a commercial pilot and can fly for compensation or hire. However, he does not hold an air carrier (135) certificate and cannot operate in air transportation without one. Joe will be paying his pro rata share. Is this legal?

A

YES but only if Joe is going to MSP for a common purpose!
- If Joe has no common reason for making the trip, he is engaging in an illegal charter as he is getting flight time (compensation) at a reduced cost and is only transporting his friend for the friend’s reasons

102
Q

Can you legally fly your friends for a “non-profit” skydiving club if you all pay an equal amount for the plane rental?

A

No! You do not share a common purpose with you passengers

Q

A 370 hour CFI was directed by his boss (an owner of a flight school) to transport the local chief of police to a nearby town where his wife was in the hospital after a car accident.
The CFI was told that the chief was interested in flight lessons and to give him a demo flight to the nearby town and then return.
Is this legal?

A

NO! The CFI did not understand the applicability of pt. 135 and was sure the flight was conducted under pt. 91

A commercial pilot certificate alone does not entitle a pilot to command an aircraft carrying persons or property for compensation or hire. The pilot, or some other operator, must have an ATCO certificate and must comply with the provisions of Part 135 as well as the general operating and flight rules of Part 91.

106
Q

A new company has formed and has applied for a single pilot 135 certificate. The pilot has the aircraft ready and is days from being awarded the certificate. The pilot’s brother approaches him and says that his company is in a situation and requires air transportation immediately. The pilot knows he does not yet have a 135 certificate, but decided to help anyways. Is this legal?

A

NO! Goodwill = Compensation.
The pilot in this case would face a suspension of his certificates (revocation if multiple flights), and may have difficulty with obtaining his 135 certification. His new company could even face civil penalties
