QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS LATEST UPDATE
JUST RELEASED THIS YEAR
Question: What is the purpose of the airplane engine's mixture control? - CORRECT
ANSWER✔✔To regulate the ratio of gasoline to air entering the fuel distribution system.
Question: Pilots flying over a national wildlife refuge are requested to fly no lower than -
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔2,000 feet AGL.
Question: An alternating red and green light signal directed from the control tower to an
aircraft in flight is a signal to - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Exercise extreme caution
Question: Who is responsible for determining whether a pilot is fit to fly for a particular flight,
even though he or she holds a current medical certificate? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔pilot
Question: For internal cooling, reciprocating aircraft engines are especially dependent on -
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔the circulation of lubricating oil
Question: The correct method of stating 4,500 feet MSL to ATC is - CORRECT
ANSWER✔✔"FOUR THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED."

Question: What is the purpose of the rudder on an airplane? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔To control
yaw.
Question: You have been running on excessively rich mixture for some time now. As a result: -
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔The spark plugs may become fouled. (Results in additional carbon
buildup on the spark plugs, which may cause engine roughness).
Q:When would a pilot be required to submit a detailed report of an emergency which caused
the pilot to deviate from an ATC clearance? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Within 48 hours if requested
by ATC.
Question: What is absolute altitude? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔The vertical distance of the
aircraft above the surface.
Question: Under what circumstances might an airport beacon be in operation during the day at
an airport with an ATC tower? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔When ground visibility is less than 3 miles
and/or the ceiling is less than 1000'
Question: Which incident would necessitate an immediate notification to the nearest NTSB
field office? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔An in-flight fire
, Page 3 of 55
Question: In which class of airspace is aerobatic flight prohibited? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Class
E airspace below 1,500 feet AGL (no person may operate an aircraft in acrobatic flight below an
altitude of 1500' AGL)
Question: Pilots are more subject to spatial disorientation if... - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Visual
cues are taken away, as they are in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC).
Question: You are on the ground and see a steady red light signal from the tower. What does it
indicate? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔to stop
Question: Drag is produced by - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Moving the airplane through the air.
Question: To fly in Class E airspace below 1,200 feet AGL, the horizontal distance from clouds
is... - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔2,000 feet (class E-less than 10,000' MSL - 500' below, 1000' above,
2000' horizontal)
Question: As you are climbing to your cruise altitude, you realize you forgot to lean the mixture
control. What happens to fuel/air mixture entering the engine? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔The
fuel-air mixture becomes richer because the density of air decreases while the amount of fuel
remains constant.

Question: When executing an emergency approach to land in a single engine airplane, it is
important to maintain a constant glide speed because variations in glide speed... - CORRECT
ANSWER✔✔nullify all attempts at accuracy in judgment of gliding distance and landing spot.
Question: In order to check your progress when using dead reckoning with no radio
instrumentation, make corrections by: - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔using pilotage and keep track of
your checkpoints (except for flights over water, dead reckoning is usually used when pilotage for
cross-country flying. The heading and GS, as calculated, is constantly monitored and corrected
by pilotage as observed from checkpoints)
Question: Cold air generally contains: - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔less water vapor than warm air
Question: The danger of spatial disorientation during flight in poor visual conditions may be
reduced by - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Having faith in the instruments rather than taking a chance
on the sensory organs.
Question: The responsibility for ensuring that maintenance personnel make the appropriate
entries in the aircraft maintenance records indicating the aircraft has been approved for return
to service lies with the: - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔Owner or operator (the PIC is responsible for
determine whether the aircraft is in condition for safe flight)
Question: If instructed by ground control to taxi to Runway 9, the pilot may proceed - CORRECT
ANSWER✔✔To the next intersecting runway where further clearance is required (pilots are
