During the run-up at a high elevation airport, a pilot notes a slight engine roughness
that is not affected by the magneto check but grows worse during the carburetor
heat check. Under these circumstances, what would be the most logical initial action?

Check the results obtained with a leaner setting of the mixture. In this case,
engine roughness is probably caused by the mixture set too rich for the
high altitude. When the carburetor heat is turned on, the warmer air
entering the carburetor is less dense, and the mixture is further enriched.
As a result, the engine roughness increases. The problem can usually be
corrected by leaning the mixture.
An operable 4096-code or Mode S transponder with an encoding altimeter is
required in which airspace?

Class A, Class B (and within 30 miles of the Class B primary airport), and
Class C.
In the Northern Hemisphere, the magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn

, the aircraft is decelerated while on a west heading. Acceleration error is
most pronounced on east/west headings. Using the acronym ANDS
(Accelerate-North, Decelerate-South), acceleration will show a turn to the
north, and a deceleration will show a turn to the south.
The angle of attack at which an airplane wing stalls will

remain the same regardless of gross weight. The critical angle of attack
(angle of attack at which an airplane stalls) is determined by the lift
coefficient of a particular wing configuration. An airplane will stall when the
critical angle of attack is exceeded, regardless of weight or airspeed.
When taxiing with strong quartering tailwinds, which aileron positions should be
used?
Give this one a try later!
Aileron down on the side from which the wind is blowing. With a quartering
tailwind, the aileron should be down on the side from which the wind is
blowing in order to prevent the wind from flowing under the wing and
lifting it.
What force makes an airplane turn?
Give this one a try later!
The horizontal component of lift. In a turn, lift has both a vertical and a
horizontal component. The horizontal component of lift, which is also
, referred to as centripetal force, opposes centrigual force and causes the
airplane to turn.
When must a pilot who deviates from a regulation during an emergency send a
written report of that deviation to the Administrator?

Upon request.
