Q

Relationship between V1 and Vmcg

A

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

Q

Anabatic wind?
Kadabatic

A

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

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

Q

Clearway with increase/decrease MTOW and increase/decrease V1

A

Increase MOTW
Decrease V1

23
Q

Aerodynamic benefits of swept wing?
Negatives?

A

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

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

24
Q

VASI

A

Like PAPI but only 2 lights

25
Q

What happens to specific fuel consumption with altitude

A

decreases

26
Q

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

A

Decreases perf

27
Q

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

A

Right

28
Q

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

A

Slats - Decrease AOA
Flaps - Increase AOA

29
Q

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

A

Over

30
Q

In N Hemisphere, what happens to wind s alt increases

A

Veers - anti-clockwise - and speeds up

31
Q

Low pressure area weather?

A

Wind and rain

32
Q

Winglets effects?

A

Reduces induced drag

33
Q

MSA on charts within xNM?

-47 deg C

36
Q

Airspeed in descent with static blocked?

A

Overread

37
Q

Airspeed in climb with bloced pitot

A

Increase

38
Q

Wx associated with Inter Tropical Convergence Zone

A

Convective clouds and heavy precipitation

Belt of low pressure air near equator where N and S winds meet

39

A

Increases

44
Q

Increase of weight on stall speed

A

Increases

45
Q

COntaminated RW

A

25% covered in 3mm

46
Q

Better for stopping on dry RW - brakes or reverse thrust

A

Reverse thrust

47
