Which would provide the greatest gain in altitude in the shortest distance during climb after takeoff?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Vx is the best angle of climb. This gives you the greatest gain in altitude for horizontal distance traveled.

After takeoff, which airspeed would the pilot use to gain the most altitude in a given period of time?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Use Vy, the best RATE of climb speed, to gain altitude in minimum time when nearby obstacles are not a factor. Use the slower Vx, the best ANGLE of climb speed to gain altitude in minimum horizontal distance and clear obstacles. Vs, maneuvering speed, is

What effect does high density altitude, as compared to low density altitude, have on propeller efficiency and why?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Because the air is less dense, there is less airflow through the propeller, and the force and efficiency are reduced.

Which combination of atmospheric conditions will reduce aircraft takeoff and climb performance?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

High temperatures increase density altitude with a resulting decrease in aircraft performance. In addition, high humidity reduces engine performance.

What effect does high density altitude have on aircraft performance?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

A high density altitude decreases engine performance with a resulting reduction in climb performance.

none

What effect, if any, does high humidity have on aircraft performance?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

High humidity reduces engine performance by slightly increasing the density altitude of air entering the engine and retarding smooth burning of the fuel.

(Refer to figure 36) Approximately what true airspeed should a pilot expect with 65 percent maximum continuous power at 9,500 feet with a temperature of 36°F below standard?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Use the left-hand portion of the table, under ISA -36°F. Interpolate between the TAS values for 8,000 feet (157 KTS) and 10,000 feet (160 KTS). The closest answer is 158 KTS.

(Refer to figure 36) What is the expected fuel consumption for a 1,000-nautical mile flight under the following conditions? Pressure altitude...8,000 Feet Temperature...22 °C Manifold pressure...20.8 inches Hg. Wind ... Calm.

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

The temperature of 22°C is found on the right-hand portion of the table (ISA+ 20°C) at 8,000 feet. Read across to find a fuel flow of 11.5 GPH, and TAS of 164 Knots (use knots because the distance is in nautical miles). Now, find the time enroute by divid

(Refer to figure 36) What fuel flow should a pilot expect at 11,000 feet on a standard day with 65 percent maximum continuous power?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Use the center portion of the table for a standard day. You will need to interpolate to find the fuel flow for 11,000 feet which is halfway between 12,000 and 10,000 feet. The answer is 11.2 (11.5 - 10.9 = .6 / 2 =.3 + 10.9 = 11.2).

(Refer to figure 36) Determine the approximate manifold pressure setting with 2,450 RPM to achieve 65 percent maximum continuous power at 6,500 feet with a temperature of 36°F higher than standard.

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

The RPM is the same for all altitudes. Therefore, to determine what manifold pressure (MP) is required to achieve 65% maximum continuous power, enter the table under ISA+ 36°F. The MP for 6,000 feet is 21.0'; and for 8,000 feet it is 20.8': The interpolat

(Refer to figure 37) What is the headwind component for a landing on Runway 18 if the tower reports the wind as 220° at 30 knots?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

First, compute the difference between the runway (180°) and the wind (220°). The result is an angle of 40 degrees. Find the intersection of the 40-degree line and the 30-knot wind velocity arc, then read across to the left side to find the headwind compon

(Refer to figure 37) Determine the maximum wind velocity for a 45° crosswind if the maximum crosswind component for the airplane is 25 knots.

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Start with the crosswind component of 25 knots at the bottom of the chart, and follow the line straight up to where it intersects the 45-degree angle line. This intersection is midway between the 30 and 40 knot wind velocity lines, or 35 knots.

(Refer to figure 37) What is the maximum wind velocity for a 30° crosswind if the maximum crosswind component for the airplane is 12 knots?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Start with the crosswind component of 12 knots at the bottom of the chart, and follow the line straight up to where it intersects the 30-degree angle line. This intersection is approximately 24 knots on the wind velocity scale.

(Refer to figure 37) With a reported wind of north at 20 knots, which runway (6, 29, or 32) is acceptable for use for an airplane with a 13-knot maximum crosswind component?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

At first glance, Runway 32 is most closely aligned with north (360°). To verify, find the crosswind component for each runway. Runway 32 is 40 degrees from the wind, and since the windspeed is 20 knots, the crosswind component is slightly less than 13 kno

(Refer to figure 37) With a reported wind of south at 20 knots, which runway (10, 14, or 24) is appropriate for an airplane with a 13-knot maximum crosswind component?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Runway 14 is most closely aligned with the wind and would have the least crosswind. The crosswind angle and component for each runway is: Runway 14, 40 degrees, 12.5 knots; Runway 10, 80 degrees, 19.7 knots; Runway 24, 60 degrees, 17.5 knots. Runway 14 is
