TOL Eval Flashcards
Where do you look for traffic on the ground?
Taxi Area
Taxiing,
Runup area (Prior to 1800 RPM Check behind you)
Define wing low side slipping
align the airplane’s heading with the centerline of the runway, note the rate and direction of drift, and promptly apply drift correction by lowering the upwind wing. When the wing is lowered, the airplane tends to turn in that direction. To
compensate for the turn, it is necessary to simultaneously apply sufficient opposite rudder pressure to keep the airplane’s longitudinal axis
When do you check for traffic in the air?
Check L/R every time you turn
Short final
When taking off
What is the go around procedure:
Cram - Full
Climb - Aft yoke, but maintain steady V speed
Clean - retract 20, retract 10 at more than 55 KIAS
Communicate - 9FF going around
Engine Failure or Abnormality During Takeoff Roll
Throttles - CLOSE
Stop Straight ahead and avoid obstacles
INSUFFICIENT RUNWAY FOR COMPLETE STOP
Mixture - CUT OFF Fuel Shut off Valve - OFF Battery master - OFF Ignition Switch - OFF Avoid Obstacles
Strobe light
Located on each wing tip - flash a white-colored light are located on each wingtip. These flashing lights are very bright and intended to attract attention during flight
Describe runway crosswind corrections
we want to takeoff with full aileron crosswind correction into the wind and then as our airspeed increases on the takeoff roll we need to let the crosswind wind correction slowly come out in order for us us to rotate with the yoke neutral as far as crosswind correction is concerned.
Max Horsepower and Engine Speed
180 Rated BHP at 2,700 RPM
Max GTW - Normal
2,550 lbs
What are the three constant checklist required for TOL´s
Before takeoff checklist when holding short of 26L or 26R
Before Landing checklist when downwind
After Landing checklist when clear of 26L or 26R
Engine Failure During Flight
Airspeed - Best Glide Note Wind direction and speed pick and fly toward best landing site Flaps - up Mixture - Rich Fuel Selector Valve - Both Fuel shut off valve push in/on Aux fuel pump Switch - On Magnetos - Check all
If prop not windmilling
Ignition Switch - Start
Magnetos - Check Alll
Landing Light
Turned on before takeoff to enhance airplanes visibility in the traffic pattern
Navigation light
Located on wing tips and top of rudder
Speeds for traffic pattern on upwind, crosswind, downwind, descent out of TPA, final, short final
Upwind 74 KIAS, Crosswind, 74 KIAS 90 KIAS in downwind, Descent out of TPA is 70-80 KIAS, Base is 70 KIAS, Final is 70 KIAS, short final is 65 KIAS
Define Touchdown Point
It is defined as an intended point where the main wheels will set down on the ground. ATP recommends that this point be within 1000’ from the aiming point = within 5 stripes down the runway.
What is PAPI and what do lights mean
Precision Approach Path Indicator Lights
provides visual glide slope guidance in non-precision approaches environment. These systems have an effective visual range of at least 3 miles during the day and up to 20 miles at night. The row of light units is normally installed on the left side of the runway
two red and two white when on proper glide path angle of approach.
Light combinations indicate when slightly high 3 white 1 red
significantly high 4 white 4 white dots
slightly low 3 red 1 white
significantly low 4 red
What is TPA
TPA is 1060´because altimeter is MSL
What is the appropriate way to break on the ground?
Never break with throttle in
Beacon light
Part of Cessna exterior lighting located on top of the vertical fin it is part of the anti collision system. We turn this on before starting the engine
Cessna 172 S Approved Fuel Grade and Color
100 LL Grade Aviation Fuel Blue
100 Grade Aviation Fuel Green
Define aiming point
It is the point on the ground at which, if the airplane maintains a constant glide path and was not flared for landing, it would strike the ground
Max Ramp
2,558 lbs
Define crabbing
The crab method is executed by establishing a heading (crab) toward the wind with the wings level so that the airplane’s ground track remains aligned with the centerline of the runway. This crab angle is maintained until just prior to touchdown
Maximum Demonstrated Crosswind
15 kts
