WizzAir ATPL Questions and Answers 2023 Solved
Approach categories on aircrafts are based upon?
A grouping of aircraft based on a speed of 1.3 times the stall speed in the landing
configuration at maximum gross landing weight. An aircraft must fit in only one category.
If it is necessary to maneuver at speeds in excess of the upper limit of a speed range for
a category, the minimums for the category for that speed must be used. For example,
an aircraft which falls in Category A, but is circling to land at a speed in excess of 91
knots, must use the approach Category B minimums when circling to land.
Aircraft Aaproach Category A?
<91 Max circling speed 90Kts
Aircraft Category B?
91/120 Max circling speed 120Kts
Aircraft Category C?
121/140 Max circling speed 140Kts
Aircraft Category D?
141/165 Max circling speed 165Kts
Aircraft Category E?
>165
What is ETOPS?
Extended twin operations. An operator is granted permission to operate a twin engined
aircraft type on flight in which the aircraft is more than 60 minutes away from a suitable
alternative aerodrome in the event that the aircraft suffers an engine failure en route.
Wha are the various ETOPS categories?
Normal extended twin operations (ETOPS) categories, vary between 60 and 180
Minutes.
The first segment on a Takeoff?
First Segment: The Climb from 35 feet point until the landing gears are fully retracted.
Conditions in this segment are:
- landing gear extended
- flaps in T/O position
- Speed = V2
- Climb gradient for 2 engine A/C = Positive
- Climb gradient for 4 engine A/C = 0.5%
- Takeoff power
The second segment on a Takeoff?
Second Segment: Climb from gear retraction point until a height of 400 feet is reached.
conditions in this segment are:
- gears retracted
- flaps in T/O position
- speed = V2
- Climb gradient 2 engine a/c 2.4%, and 4 engine a/c 3.0%
- takeoff power
The third segment on a Takeoff?
Third Segment: Its the horizontal distance covered after the second segment until the
flap retraction speed is reached, to raise the flaps plus the distance required to
, accelerate the aircraft to the flaps up climb speed. It consists of two parts:
First part of 3rd segment: Distance covered before flap retraction, accelerating to flap
retraction speed. The conditions are:
- gears retracted
- flaps in t/o position
- speed increasing from v2 to flap retraction speed
- Climb gradient 2 engine a/c 1.2%, 4 engine a/c 1.7%
- takeoff power
Second part of 3rd segment: Distance covered after flap retraction, accelerating to final
t/o climb speed. the conditions are:
- gears retracted
- flaps retracted
- speed, accelerating from flaps retraction to final t/o climb speed
- Climb gradient 2 engine a/c 1.2%, 4 engine a/c 1.7%
- maximum continuous power
The fourth segment on a Takeoff?
Fourth Segment: the Climb from 400 feet till 1500 feet is reached, after the end of third
segment operating with max continuous power. The conditions are:
- gears retracted
- flaps retracted
- speed = final t/o climb speed
- max continous power
- Climb gradient 2 engine a/c 1.2%, 4 engine a/c 1.7%
IFR and RVSM Flight levels?
0-179 Magnetic Track, Degrees odd numbers, 180-359 Even numbers
Vertical Separation is only 1000 ft up to FL290 and 2000 ft above FL290 in non-RVSM
airspace and only 1000 ft in RVSM airspace i all levels.
Why are Flight Level intervals increased to 2000 ft in non RVSM airspace?
Because of altimeter errors (lower air density). Reduced vertical RVSM to 1000ft
separation above FL290 is granted to aircraft with advanced and more accurate
altimeters, usually crowded routes (Trans Atlantic Routes).
What are the lights on a taxiway?
Blue edge and green center.
How long runway remaining when RWY centerline light turns solid red?
Red for last 1,000 ft (305 m)
How long runway remaining when RWY centerline light turns alternating red and
white?
3000 ft remaining
What happens if you move C.G from fw to aft position?
It will be tail heavy, and the horizontal tailplane will have a short memento arm that will
result in the aircraft is longitudinally unstable because it is too tail heavy for the
horizontal tailplane. Light stick forces for pitch is required. A decreased wing angle of
attack which results in lower induced drag. It will also increase aircraft range.
