What restriction is imposed regarding flight instruction of other pilots in air transportation
service by an airline transport pilot? - Answer a) 36 hours in a 7-day period.
A private pilot with an airplane single-engine land rating may act as pilot in command of an
airplane towing a glider if the pilot has - Answer b) three flights as pilot in command of a
glider towed by an aircraft within 24 calendar months before the flight.
A turbine-powered or large airplane is required to enter an airport traffic pattern at an altitude
of at least - Answer c) 1,500 feet AGL.
NTSB Part 830 requires an immediate notification as a result of which incident? - Answer c)
Flight control system malfunction
(Refer to Figure 48.) In flying the rectangular course, which would describe the proper angle of
bank? - Answer c) Corner 1 shallow to medium, corner 2 medium to steep, corner 3 steep to
medium, and corner 4 medium to shallow.
What does the lower limit of the green arc on an airspeed indicator represent? - Answer c)
Power-off stalling speed in a specified configuration.
An aircraft is loaded with the CG at the aft limit. What are the performance characteristics
compared with the CG at the forward limit? - Answer b) The aft CG provides the lowest
stalling speed, the highest cruising speed, and least stability.
If the center of gravity of an aircraft is moved from the aft limit to beyond the forward limit,
how will it affect cruising and stalling speed? - Answer c) Decrease the cruising speed and
increase the stalling speed.
Given:
True course - 258 degrees
Variation - 10 degrees East
Indicated airspeed - 142 kts
Ambient Temp. - +5 degrees C
Pressure Alt. - 6,500 ft
Forecast wind - 350 at 30 kts
, Under these conditions, the magnetic heading and groundspeed would be approximately -
Answer a) 259 degrees and 155 kts
On a cross-country fight, point A is crossed at 1500 hours and the plan is to reach point B at
1530 hours. Use the following information to determine the indicated airspeed required to
reach point B on schedule.
Distance between A and B - 70 NM
Forecast wind - 310 at 15 kts
Pressure atl. - 8,000 ft
Ambient temp. - -10 degrees C
True course - 270 degrees
The required indicated airspeed would be approximately - Answer c) 137 kts
When an airplane is in an unusual flight attitude and the attitude indicator has exceeded its
limits, which instruments should be relied upon to determine pitch attitude before recovery? -
Answer b) Airspeed indicator and altimeter
While maintaining a magnetic heading of 060 degrees and a true airspeed of 130 kts, the 150
degree radial of a VOR is crossed at 1137 and the 140 degree radial at 1145. The approximate
time and distance to the station would be. - Answer b) 48 minutes and 104 NM
While maintaining a magnetic heading of 180 degrees and a true airspeed of 130 kts, the 270
degree radial of a VOR is crossed at 1037 and the 260 degree radial at 1042. The approximate
time and distance to the station would be. - Answer b) 30 minutes and 65 NM
What causes wind? - Answer b) Pressure differences.
Vertical visibility is shown on Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAF) reports when the sky is -
Answer b) obscured
(Refer to Figure 12.) What weather phenomenon is causing IFR conditions from central
Oklahoma west to the Texas border? - Answer c) mist.
A Radar Summary Chart can be very helpful to a pilot because it graphically displays - Answer
b) the intensity and movement of precipitation
When exiting the runway, the "runway exit" sign indicates the - Answer a) direction to turn
to exit runway onto named taxiway.
