29
Q

What do we do if there is broken equipment?

A
  • If there is an MEL, you must use it.
  • 91.213
    1. VFR Day Type Cert.
    2. Kinds of Operations Lists (POH section 2)
    3. 91.205
    4. ADs
30
Q

There is broken equipment in the a/c. You look in the MEL, and it is not listed. Can you fly?

A

No

31
Q

There is broken equipment in the a/c. There is no MEL, so you refer to 91.213, and it is not listed. Can you fly?

A

Yes, but you must deactivate, remove, and placard the equipment, and determine that the a/c is still in airworthy condition.

32
Q

Why does a student need to learn a/c systems? (4 main)

A
  1. Prevent misuse of systems (that cause accidents)
  2. Remedy malfunctions (prevents accidents)

35
Q

What systems should be taught to a student before their check ride?

36
Q

39
Q

What are the magnetic compass errors?

A
  • Undershoot North (bc compass LEADS into the turn)
  • Overshoot South (bc compass LAGS into turn)
  • When on E/W headings, compass will turn N when accelerating, and turn S when decelerating.
40
Q

Can you overfly the 100 hour? By how much?

A

Yes, by 10 hours

41
Q

Explain progressive mx.

A
