AGI: CFII Knowledge Test Questions
and Answers.
What data must be recorded for VOR operational check? - Answer Place of operational check
Amount of bearing error
Date of check
Signature
Indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard-rate turn to the right from an
easterly heading - Answer Compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading
if the roll into the turn is smooth
Indication on the magnetic compass when turning left from a south heading - Answer
Indicate a turn to the left, but at a faster rate
Rate of turn at any airspeed is dependent upon - Answer Horizontal component of lift
Skidding turn - Answer Centrifugal force is greater than horizontal lift
Load factor is increased
When airspeed is decreased in a turn, what must be done to maintain level flight? - Answer
Decrease angle of bank and/or increase the angle of attack
VOR CDI from center to last dot on either side should be between - Answer 10 and 12º
VOR ground check - Answer CDI must center within 4º of that radial with a FROM indication
A system which transmits information the the instruments has malfunctioned. Which
instruments can you use to determine which system has failed? - Answer Magnetic compass
and vacuum pressure gauge
Information that needs to be entered on the logbook for currency flights - Answer Location
Type of each instrument approach completed
Name of safety pilot
Which flight time may be logged as instrument time when on an instrument flight plan? -
Answer Only the time you controlled the airplane solely by reference to flight instruments
, Grace period - Answer 6 months
If pilot's IFR experience expires with July 1, when does grace period expire? - Answer Dec 31
Safety pilot needs to be... - Answer at least a PPL
Minimum altitude for IFR flight - Answer 2000' above the highest obstacle in mountainous
terrain
1000' above the highest obstacle over the terrain elsewhere
Fuel requirements - Answer Fuel to fly to the first airport
Then to the alternate
Then fly for 45 mins
No person may operate an aircraft under IFR below 2000' within a horizontal distance of... -
Answer 4nm from the course flown
Purpose of FDC NOTAMs - Answer To advise changes in flight data which affect instrument
approach procedure aeronautical charts and flight restrictions prior to normal publication
Where are VFR-on-top operations prohibited? - Answer In Class A airspace
Vertical limits of a transition area - Answer 700' AGL or more to the base of the overlying
controlled airspace
Floor of Class E when designated in conjunction with an airport with IAP - Answer 700' AGL
What does declaring minimum fuel to ATC imply? - Answer An advisory that indicates an
emergency situation is possible
"Cruise six thousand" - Answer Climbs may be made to, or descents made from 6000' at
pilot's discretion
Authorizes a pilot to conduct flight at any altitude from minimum IFR altitude up to and
including 6000
