Which of the following statements regarding energy is true? - ANSWER: Kinetic
energy can be traded for potential energy, and potential energy can be traded for
kinetic energy.
The objective in maneuvering the airplane is to manage energy so that: - ANSWER:
All of the above (objective in maneuvering the airplane)
What is the effect on total drag if airspeed slows below L/Dmax? - ANSWER: Drag
increases because of increased induced drag
A jet pilot flying at L/Dmax will obtain best: - ANSWER: Endurance
When a jet aircraft is flown at the appropriate airspeed for maximum range, which
type of drag predominates? - ANSWER: Parasite
When already at high speed, what happens if Mach is allowed to increase? -
ANSWER: All of the above (what happens if Mach is allowed to increase)
What is the result of a shock-induced separation if airflow occurring symmetrically
near the wing root of a swept wing aircraft? - ANSWER: A severe moment or "Mach
tuck"
The speed of sound generally decreases with increasing altitude. This occurs
because: - ANSWER: The air temperature decreases
Critical Mach number can be defined as: - ANSWER: The speed of an aircraft in which
airflow over any part of the aircraft or structure first reaches, but doesn't exceed,
Mach 1.0
The most dynamic stability about the vertical axis on modern jet transports is from: -
ANSWER: An active stability augmentation system/yaw damper
Swept wings causes a significant - ANSWER: Reduction in effectiveness of flaps
Why is convergence of stall AOA and Mmo hazardous? - ANSWER: All of the above
(convergence of stall AOA hazardous)
To maintain altitude in a banked turn, the lift produced by the airplane must be: -
ANSWER: Greater than the airplane weight, and the amount is a function of bank
angle
, Excessive bank angles at high altitudes can be hazardous because - ANSWER: All of
the above
High altitude recovery from slow flight turning is best accomplished by: - ANSWER:
Increasing thrust to maximum available thrust and reducing bank angle while
accelerating to airspeed above L/D max speed. In a thrust limited situation, exiting
slow flight will require an immediate descent as an aerodynamic stall is imminent
Maximum altitude for an airplane is: - ANSWER: The lowest of the above listed
altitudes
Exceed the critical angle of attack and the surface will stall, and lift will decrease
instead of increasing. This is true: - ANSWER: Regardless of airplane speed or attitude
Which of the following statements is true? - ANSWER: Recovery from approach to
stall warning is the same as recovery from a stall
The airplane angle of attack is the angle between the wing chord and the oncoming
air or relative wind - ANSWER: True
Therefore, if a pilot maintains airspeed above the appropriate speed listed for the
aircraft weight p, the aircraft will not stall. - ANSWER: False
The stall speed of an airplane is: - ANSWER: Affected by weight and bank angle
Large downward aileron deflections: - ANSWER: Could induce air separation over
that portion of the wing at very high angles of attack
Place the steps from stall recovery template in the correct order: - ANSWER:
Disconnect autopilot
Nose down pitch
Bank wings level
Apply thrust
Retract spoilers
Return to flight path
The predominant number if airplane upsets are caused by: - ANSWER: Environmental
factors
Most of the multi engine turbojet loss of control incidents that are caused by
environmental factors are because of: - ANSWER: Wake turbulence
When initiating recommended airplane upset recovery techniques, the first two
techniques are: - ANSWER: Recognize and confirm the situation and disengage the
autopilot and auto throttles
