The left turning tendency of an airplane caused by P-factor is the result of the _____ - ANSWER:
propeller blade descending on the right, producing more thrust than the ascending blade on the left.
The load factor on any airplane during a constant altitude turn is determined by _____ - ANSWER:
Bank alone
The term 'angle of attack' is defined as the angle between the___ - ANSWER: chord line of the wing
and the relative wind.
What must a pilot be aware of as a result of ground effect? - ANSWER: induced drag decreases;
therefore, any excess speed at the point of flare may cause considerable floating.
Determine the approximate ground roll distance required for takeoff. - ANSWER: 650 feet.
When are the four forces that act on an airplane in equilibrium? - ANSWER: During unaccelerated
flight.
During your flight you burn 25 gallons of fuel. What effect would this have on the weight and balance
of your airplane at destination? Given: AIrplane weight is 3,000 pounds and MOM/100 is 2,000. -
ANSWER: Moment will decrease to 1,887 lbs-in.
How should the 500-pound weight be shifted to balance the plank on the fulcrum? - ANSWER: 1 inch
to the left.
During a spin to the left, which wing(s) is/are stalled? - ANSWER: Both wings are stalled.
What force makes an airplane turn? - ANSWER: The horizontal component of lift.
if an airplane weighs 4,500 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane structure be
required to support during a 45 degree banked turn while maintaining altitude. - ANSWER: 6,750
pounds.
With a reported wind of south at 20 knots, which runway (10, 14, or 24) is appropriate for an airplane
with a 13-knot maximum crosswind component? - ANSWER: Runway 14.
In straight-and-level flight, if thrust exceeds drag then: - ANSWER: speed increases
Parasite drag increases when airspeed is: - ANSWER: increased
Determine the maximum wind velocity for a 45 degree crosswind if the maximum crosswind
component for the airplane is 25 knots. - ANSWER: 35 knots.
The amount of excess load that can be imposed on the wing of an airplane depends upon the -
ANSWER: speed of the airplane
Determine the approximate ground roll distance required for takeoff.
OAT - 38 C
Pressure altitude - 2,000 ft
takeoff weight - 2,750 lb
headwind component - calm - ANSWER: 1,150 feet
