In what flight condition must an aircraft be placed in order to spin?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

An airplane must be stalled before a spin can develop

During a spin to the left, which wing(s) is/are stalled?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

In a spin, both wings are stalled but in a spin to the left, the left wing is more stalled.

In what flight condition is torque effect the greatest in a single-engine airplane?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Torque effect is greatest at low airspeeds, high power settings, and high angles of attack.

The left turning tendency of an airplane caused by P-factor is the result of the

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

P-factor, or asymmetric propeller loading, normally occurs at a high angle of attack. The descending propeller blade on the right side takes a larger “bite” of the air, and produces more thrust than the ascending blade on the left. The result is a left tu

When does P-factor cause the airplane to yaw to the left?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

P-factor is most pronounced at high angles of attack, which cause the descending propeller blade to produce more thrust.

(Refer to figure 2) If an airplane weighs 2,300 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane structure be required to support during a 60 degrees banked turn while maintaining altitude?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

At 60 degrees of bank, 2 Gs are required to maintain level flight. This means that the airplane’s wing structure must support twice the airplane’s weight, or 2,300 x 2 = 4,600 pounds.

(Refer to figure 2) If an airplane weighs 3,300 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane structure be required to support during a 30 degrees banked turn while maintaining altitude?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

The load factor for 30 degrees of bank is 1.154, or about 1.2. The airplane weight (3,300) multiplied by the load factor (1.2) is 3,960 pounds which the wing structure must support.

(Refer to figure 2) If an airplane weighs 4,500 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane structure be required to support during a 45 degrees banked turn while maintaining altitude?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

At 45 degrees of bank the load factor is 1.414, or approximately 1.5, the wing loading would be 4,500 x 1.5, or 6,750 pounds.

The amount of excess load that can be imposed on the wing of an airplane depends upon the

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

The amount of excess load that can be imposed on an airplane depends on its speed. If abrupt control movements or strong gusts are applied at low airspeeds, the airplane will stall before the load becomes excessive. At higher airspeeds, the increased airf

Which basic flight maneuver increases the load factor on an airplane as compared to straight-and-level flight?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

In a level turn, lift must be increased to compensate for the loss of vertical lift as well as overcome centrifugal force. Since the wings must support not only the airplane’s weight, but also the load imposed by centrifugal force, the load factor is grea

What force makes an airplane turn?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

In a turn, lift has both a vertical and a horizontal component. The horizontal component of lift, which is also referred to as centrifugal force, opposes centrifugal force and causes the airplane to turn.

none

During an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will cause the airplane to

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Stall speed increase in proportion to load factor. Added G-forces cause an airplane to stall at an airspeed higher than the normal 1 G airspeed.

Select the four flight fundamentals involved in maneuvering an aircraft.

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

All controlled flight consists of one of the four fundamental maneuvers or some combination of them.
