Propeller efficiency is the
ratio of thrust horsepower to brake horsepower
To act as a pilot in command of a tailwheel airplane, without prior experience, a pilot must…
RECEIVE and LOG flight training from and AUTHORIZED instructor
When turning onto a taxiway from another taxiway, the “taxiway directional sign” indicates
designation and direction of taxiway LEADING OUT OF an intersection.
Which is true concerning the blue and magenta colors used to depict airports on Sectional Aeronautical Charts?
Airports with control towers UNDERLYING Class B, C, D, and E airspace are shown in BLUE.
(Not the Airspace, the AIRPORTS)
At the airspeed indicated by A, in steady flight, the airplane will…
have its maximum L/D ratio

At some airports where ground visibility is not reported, takeoffs and landings under special VFR are
authorized by ATC if visibility is at least 1 SM
To generate the same amount of lift, as altitude is increased, and airplane must be flown at
a higher true airspeed for any given angle of attack
Which is true with respect to operating near other aircraft in flight ? They are

taking a self-assessment hazardous inventory test
Which is true with respect to formation flights? They are
Not authorized, except by arrangement with the pilot in command of each aircraft

Mode A/3, code 1200
The formation of either predominately stratiform or predominantly cumuliform clouds is dependent upon the
stability of the air being lifted
A propellers angle of incidence is greatest
At the hub which permits the same amount of lift to be created along the blades length
You are pilot-in-command of a VFR flight that you think will be within the fuel range of your aircraft. As part of your preflight planning you must
obtain weather reports, forecasts, and fuel requirements for the flight
(VFR! does not require alternate)
What is the purpose of a runway exit sign ?
Defines direction and designation of exit TAXIWAY from a runway.
If a aircraft is listed as utility, it would mean that the airplane could be operated in which of the following maneuvers ?

NEUTRAL longitudinal STATIC stability
The purpose of an enhanced taxiway centerline is to
highlight and approaching runway holding position marking
What flight planning information can a pilot derive rom Constant Pressure Analysis charts ?
Winds and temperatures aloft
With regard to the technique required for a crosswind correction on takeoff, a pilot should use
RUDDER as required, AILERON pressure into the wind, and a higher than normal lift off speed in both conventional and tail-wheel airplanes
