Q

What is the significance of the white arc? What are the top and bottom speeds for a 152?

A
  • White arc is the full flap operating range. - Bottom is Vso (stall speed in landing configuration). Upper limit is maximum max speed for flaps to be extended.
  • 35 to 85 KIAS

38
How is the alternator powered?
Drive belt from the engine
39
What are the battery specs?
- 24v | - 14 amp hour
40
Electrical system specs
- 28v - 60 amp alternator - 24v/14amp hr battery - Single bus bar
41
Electrically Driven Flight Instruments
Turn Coordinator
42
Pitot-Static Instruments
- Airspeed Indicator - Altimeter - Rate of Climb Indicator
43
How does the Airspeed indicator work?
Ram airspeed (from pitot) is compared against static pressure
44
How does altimeter work?
As altitude increased, pressure decreases, causing the meter to go up. Must be calibrated to pressure at sea level to be accurate.
45
How does the rate of climb indicator work?
The needle is actuated by atmospheric pressure changes supplied by static port.
46
Vacuum powered instruments
- Attitude Indicator - Directional Indicator - Suction Gauge
