15
Q

In a steady co-ordinated horizontal turn, lift is greater than in straight and level flight, because it must balance the blank and generate the blank

A

Weight - centripetal force

16
Q

During a straight steady vertical descent (dive): drag is equal to the sum of blank and blank

A

Thrust and weight

17
Q

Two identical aeroplanes A and B, with the same mass, are flying steady level coordinated 20 degree bank turns. If the TAS of A is 130 kt and the TAS of B is 200 kt: the blank of A and B is the same

A

Load factor

18
Q

In a turn the blank axis forms a tangent to the curve path.

A

Longitudinal

19
Q

In a skid turn there is too much blank and not enough blank.

A

Rudder - bank

20
Q

In a slip, you have used to much blank or too little blank.

A

Bank - rudder.

21
Q

How do you create a strong slip?

A

Opposite bank and rudder.

22
Q

Using a turn indicator, what occurs in a skid?

A

Needle and ball opposite.

23
Q

Using a turn indicator, what occurs in a slip?

A

Needle + ball in the same direction.

24
Q

How do you fix a skid?

A

More bank or less rudder

25
Q

How do you fix a slip?

A

Less bank or more rudder

26
Q

On a climbing turn, which wing has a greater aoa? (Inside/outside)

A

Outside

27
Q

When does over banking occur?

A

In a climbing turn.

28
Q

When does an under bank occur?

A

Descending.

29
Q

What happens to the drag curve in a turn?

A

Up and to the right.

30
Q

When must angle of bank be reduced to ensure drag does not exceed thrust leading to stall?

A

High altitudes.
