Relationship between V1 and Vmcg

Answer 12

Vmcg </= V1

Vmcg is minimum speed during takeoff run at which, if the critical engine suddenly fails, it is possible to maintain directional control using only aerodynamic controls

West = Even
East = Odd
RVSM levels?

Answer 13

Even Odd
RVSM 270-410

Question 14

What happens to V1 if anti-skid becomes inop

Answer 14

decreases

Question 15

ISA temps?

Answer 15

0’ = 15 deg
2 deg per 1000’

Question 16

Anabatic wind?
Kadabatic

Answer 16

A: Blows up a steep mountain slope due to heating of the slope

K: Blows down slope (high density air drifting down due gravity)

Question 17

What forms a CB

Answer 17

Lots of moisture
Mass of warm stable air
Source of energy to lift the warm air up quickly

Question 18

ASDA, TORA, TODA, TODA?

Answer 18

Question 19

Balanced field?

Answer 19

TODR = ASD
It takes same dist to stop from V1 as it does to lift off

Question 20

ASDA = TORA + what?

Answer 20

Stopway

Question 21

Stopway definition

Answer 21

Unprepared surface which can support weight of AC but isn’t part of the TORA (is part of the ASDA)

Question 22

Clearway with increase/decrease MTOW and increase/decrease V1

Answer 22

Increase MOTW
Decrease V1

Question 23

Aerodynamic benefits of swept wing?
Negatives?

Answer 23

Benefits: High Mach cruise speeds, stability in turbulence, low drag

Negatives: Poor lift, higher stall speeds, greater potential for wing-tip stalling

Question 24

VASI

Answer 24

Like PAPI but only 2 lights

Question 25

What happens to specific fuel consumption with altitude

Answer 25

decreases

Question 26

Bleed air for AC and anti-ice on take of perf?

Answer 26

Decreases perf

Question 27

2 AC approaching head on for crash, which way do we turn

Answer 27

Right

Question 28

Maintaining constant alt, effect of slats and flaps on AOA?

Answer 28

Slats - Decrease AOA Flaps - Increase AOA

Question 29

Static port clogged on descent - will altimeter over or under-read?

Answer 29

Over

Question 30

In N Hemisphere, what happens to wind s alt increases

Answer 30

Veers - anti-clockwise - and speeds up

Question 31

Low pressure area weather?

Answer 31

Wind and rain

Question 32

Winglets effects?

Answer 32

Reduces induced drag

Question 33

MSA on charts within xNM?

Answer 33

25

Sea breeze

Answer 34

Cool breeze from sea to land

Question 35

Jet A1 fuel freeze temp

Answer 35

-47 deg C

Question 36

Airspeed in descent with static blocked?

Answer 36

Overread

Question 37

Airspeed in climb with bloced pitot

Answer 37

Increase

Question 38

Wx associated with Inter Tropical Convergence Zone

Answer 38

Convective clouds and heavy precipitation Belt of low pressure air near equator where N and S winds meet

Question 39

Max time for Jet engine to spool from idle to full thrust?

Answer 39

8 secs
