(Refer to figure 26) What is the estimated time enroute for a flight from Denton Muni (area 1) to Addison (area 2)? The wind is from 200° at 20 knots, the true airspeed is 110 knots, and the magnetic variation is 7° east.

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

This question requires you to calculate groundspeed, then complete a time-speed-distance problem. (1) Measure the distance from Denton Muni to Addison Airport (23 NM). (2) Determine True Course (128°). (3) Determine the groundspeed using your flight compu

Explanation

This question requires you to calculate groundspeed, then complete a time-speed-distance problem. (1) Measure the distance from Addison Airport to Redbird Airport (17 NM). (2) Determine the true course (186°). (3) Determine the groundspeed using your flig

If a true heading of 135° results in a ground track of 130° and a true airspeed of 135 knots results in a groundspeed of 140 knots, the wind would be from

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Use a flight computer to solve for wind direction and velocity. This calculation is essentially the reverse of predicting groundspeed from forecast winds aloft.

(Refer to figure 63) In flying the rectangular course, when would the aircraft be turned less than 90°?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

To maintain the rectangular ground track at turn 1, the aircraft is turned less than 90 degrees to establish a right crab into the wind. Approaching turn 4, the aircraft is crabbed left into the wind and is therefore turned less than 90 degrees into the d

(Refer to figure 67) While practicing S-turns, a consistently smaller half circle is made on one side of the road than on the other, and this turn is not completed before crossing the road or reference line. This would most likely occur in turn

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Turn 4-5-6 begins with an upwind leg (i.e., traveling into a headwind), resulting in a slower ground speed. The slower ground speed requires the pilot to add bank more slowly than on the downwind leg, so the aircraft has more time to travel equidistant fr

How far will an aircraft travel in 2-1/2 minutes with a groundspeed of 98 knots?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

You can solve this problem using a flight computer or mathematically. The basic formula for time, speed, distance calculations is: Distance = Groundspeed x Time Distance = 98 NM/hr x 2.5 min / 60 min/hr.

How far will an aircraft travel in 7.5 minutes with a ground speed of 114 knots?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

You can calculate this on a flight computer or do the basic math: 114 NM/hr x 7.5 min / 60 min/hr. = 14.25 NM

On a cross-country flight, point A is crossed at 1500 hours and the plan is to reach point B at 1530 hours. Use the following information to determine the indicated airspeed required to reach point B on schedule. Distance between A and B: 70 NM Forecast wind: 310° at 15 knots Pressure altitude: 8,000 ft. Ambient temperature: -10°C True course: 270° The required indicated airspeed would be approximately

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

(1) Determine the groundspeed required to reach point B by 1530. Use a flight computer or calculate mathematically: 70 NM / 30 min x 60 min/hr. = 140 knots (2) Use the Winds function of your flight computer to determine the required TAS with the given rig
