POF Q33 - Asymmetric Flight Flashcards
Which of the following statements is correct?
I) When the critical engine fails during take-off the speed VMCL can be limiting.
II) The speed VMCL is always limited by maximum rudder deflection.
a.I is incorrect, II is incorrect
b.I is correct, II is incorrect
c.I is incorrect, II is correct
d.I is correct, II is correct
a.I is incorrect, II is incorrect
Which statement about minimum control speed is correct?
a.VMCA depends on the airport density altitude, and the location of the engine on the aeroplane (aft fuselage or wing).
b.Crosswind is taken into account to determine VMCG.
c.VMCA may not be lower than VMCL
d.The nose wheel steering control may used to determine VMCG.
a.VMCA depends on the airport density altitude, and the location of the engine on the aeroplane (aft fuselage or wing).
Which of the following statements is correct ?
I) VMCL is the minimum control speed in the landing configuration.
II) The speed VMCL can be limited by the available maximum roll rate
a.I is incorrect, II is correct
b.I is correct, II is incorrect
c.I is incorrect, II is incorrect
d.I is correct, II is correct
d.I is correct, II is correct
How does VMCG change with increasing field elevation and temperature ?
a.increases, because at a lower density a larger IAS is necessary to generate the required rudder force
b.increases, because VMCG is related to V1 and VR and those speeds increase if the density decreases
c.decreases, because VMCG is expressed in IAS which decreases with constant TAS and decreasing density
d.decreases, because the engine thrust decreases.
d.decreases, because the engine thrust decreases.
Which statement is correct about an aeroplane, that has experienced a right engine failure and continues afterwards in straight and level cruise flight with wings level?
a.Turn indicator right of neutral, slip indicator neutral.
b.Turn indicator left of neutral, slip indicator right of neutral.
c.Turn indicator neutral, slip indicator right of neutral.
d.Turn indicator neutral, slip indicator neutral.
d.Turn indicator neutral, slip indicator neutral.
On a twin engine aircraft with clockwise rotating propellers, the failure of the critical engine will result in an increase in [ ] and a loss of
[ ] on the failed engine. This will result in a yawing moment to the [ ].
[Drag] [Thrust][Left]
One method for maintaining control when there is a single engine failure on a twin engine aircraft is the wing down method. Which of the following statements about the method is/are correct?
a.The method does not require the fin to generate a side force
b.a sideways component of the drag vector is used to counteract the yaw
c.The 5º banking limit is imposed due to the risk of the aircraft stalling
d.The technique requires a bank of up to 5º towards the live engine
d.The technique requires a bank of up to 5º towards the live engine
The size of the yawing moment created by an engine failure depends upon?
PICK ALL CORRECT STATEMENTS
a.The distance of the live engine from the aircraft CG
b.The density of the air
c.the size of additional drag forces
d.The amount of thrust being generated by the live engine
a.The distance of the live engine from the aircraft CG
b.The density of the air
c.The size of additional drag forces
d.The amount of thrust being generated by the live engine
During an engine failure situation of a twin engined propeller aircraft, failure to stop the yaw will result in a secondary effect of roll towards the [ ] engine. The roll is further increased by the loss of lift [ ]. If you are unable to stop the yaw with rudder, you
should [ ].
[dead] [behind the dead engine] [decrease thrust]
The risk factors and hazards to an aircraft at VMC are what?
PICK ALL CORRECT ANSWERS
a.Excessive angle of attack at the fin
b.Excessive fin loads
c.Sideslip
d.High angle of attack
a.Excessive angle of attack at the fin
b.Excessive fin loads
c.Sideslip
d.High angle of attack
Which of the following would lead to the least controllable situation for a twin engined aircraft with counter rotating propellers?
a.High power setting, failure of the left engine, no flap
b.High power setting, failure of the right engine, full flap
c.High power setting, failure of the right engine, no flap
d.Low power setting, failure of the left engine, full flap
b.High power setting, failure of the right engine, full flap
