should set your altimeter to 29.92 just __________ entering the SPR
a Reportable aviation Incident does not apply to small aircraft (> 5,700 kg). It covers
emergencies (fire, going off runway, Control issues) that could have resulted in a major accident.
- ANS ✔What is the main difference between a reportable aviation incident and accident?
123 - ANS ✔Pilots operating at an uncontrolled Aerodrome at which no ground station exists or
frequency is published should broadcast on
When the pilot-in-command is not available to monitor the fueling - ANS ✔When is refueling of
an air taxi flight not permitted with passengers on board?
,14 and 8 - ANS ✔how many hours can a flight crew log in a 24 hour period? If the pilot is single
engine IFR how many hours can be logged?
At all times unless the aircraft will not land and shutdown at another location. - ANS ✔When
should you carry a journey Log on an Aircraft?
5 20 - ANS ✔When penetrating the ADIZ ETA must be within ________ minutes and _________
NMs.
Mass (or weight) - ANS ✔In a carburetor the fuel to air ratio is governed by...
Air is warmer therefore less dense so you should lean the mixture for prolong use of Carb heat. -
ANS ✔What happens to the Fuel/Air ratio when Carb heat is applied? As a result what should
you do for prolong carb heat usage.
the fuel to air mixture becomes too rich this results in a drop of RPMs and spark plugs may foul.
This will also result an more fuel used than calculated as per the POH. - ANS ✔What happens to
an engine when fuel is not leaned at high altitudes?
You are decreasing the amount of fuel to air ratio to compensate for the less dense air at higher
altitudes. - ANS ✔What happens when you lean the mixture at cursing altitude?
The fuel gets richer because the air becomes less dense. - ANS ✔When Carb heat is applied
what happens to the fuel to air ratio?
They both increase. - ANS ✔As the Angle of attack is increased what happens to lift and induced
drag?
,b - ANS ✔The First Symptom of Carburetor icing is
a. Engine Roughness
b. RPM decrease
Exhaust gases, internally driven compressor powered by the engine. - ANS ✔A turbo Charger is
powered by __________ _________ and a supercharger is powered by _____ _________
Act like a VSI or altimeter - ANS ✔If the pitot tube and its drain becomes blocked What would
the Airspeed indicator do?
This is a partial block which will allow the dynamic pressure to slowly leak out. In this case the
ASI will decrease to 0 - ANS ✔If a pitot tube becomes blocked but the drain remains clear what
will the Airspeed indicator do?
It will under-read more and more as you climb and over read more and more as you descend. -
ANS ✔What will happen to the Airspeed indicator if the static port gets blocked?
It will freeze on the last altitude before blockage - ANS ✔What will happen to the altimeter if
the static port gets blocked?
Under that specific crosswind in the Chart titled Crosswind limits for CRFI - ANS ✔Where can
you find the CRFI recommended value for a specific crosswind?
It is an elongated are of low pressure and is shown as a single purple line. - ANS ✔What is a
trough and how is it depicted on a GFA?
an upper air trough. - ANS ✔What does a double purple line indicate on a GFA?
, A Trowal (or an occluded front) occurs when cold air catches up with warm air. It is shown on
the GFA as zipper cold and warm front. A trough is an elongated area of low pressure. It is
shown on the GFA as a single purple line. - ANS ✔What is the difference between a trowal and a
trough and how is each depicted on a GFA?
4,900 - ANS ✔You takeoff with and the field altimeter setting is 30.12. Along the route while
level at 5,000 you check the AWOS at a nearby airport and it 30.02. What altitude are you
actually at?
5,200 - ANS ✔You takeoff with and the field altimeter setting is 29.80. Along the route while
level at 5,000 you check the AWOS at a nearby airport and it 30.00. What altitude are you
actually at?
The temperature to which air must be cooled at a constant pressure to becomes saturated. -
ANS ✔Define dew point
Temperature - Dew point (Dew point spread) x 400. - ANS ✔How do you estimate the base
height of a cloud using the dew point and temperature?
Saturated=1.5 degrees/1000 feet
dry= 3 degrees/1000 feet - ANS ✔At what rate does saturated air cool and at what rate does dry
air cool?
Drizzle - ANS ✔Stratus clouds are known for what type of precipitation?
Clockwise - ANS ✔If winds are veering, which direction are they shifting too?
Veer and increase - ANS ✔Typically during climb out what do the winds do?
