Approved and Accurate Answers 2025/2026
During accelerated flight, how does stall speed change correct answer
Increases due to increased load factor
If a pilot uses flaps during landing, what happens to approach speed
correct answer
Approach speed decreases
During a power-on stall, what happens to the angle of attack correct
answer
Angle of attack is increased
If an aircraft is descending at constant airspeed, what is true about forces
correct answer
Thrust is less than drag, lift equals weight
During a steep turn, what should a pilot do correct answer
Increase back pressure and maintain coordinated flight
If the static port is blocked, what happens correct answer
Altimeter freezes, VSI goes to zero, airspeed may be inaccurate
During climb at high density altitude, what happens to rate of climb correct
answer
Rate of climb decreases
If rudder input is too little during a turn, what happens correct answer
Aircraft slips toward the inside of the turn
, If rudder input is too much during a turn, what happens correct answer
Aircraft skids outward
During a go-around, what steps should be taken correct answer
Increase power, retract flaps gradually, maintain climb speed
What effect does turbulence have on flight control correct answer
May cause sudden altitude or attitude changes
If a pilot encounters wind shear on final approach, what is the safest action
correct answer
Go around or adjust power and pitch carefully
How does the angle of attack relate to stall correct answer
Stall occurs when angle of attack exceeds critical limit
If an aircraft experiences asymmetric thrust, what happens correct answer
Aircraft yaws toward the side with less thrust
What is the effect of weight increase on takeoff distance correct answer
Takeoff distance increases
If the aircraft is over-rotated during takeoff, what is likely to happen correct
answer
Tail strike or stall
Why is Vne (Never Exceed Speed) important correct answer
Exceeding it can structurally damage the aircraft
What is the primary purpose of flaps during landing correct answer
Increase lift at lower speeds and steepen approach
