Question 1

What is a type certificate and certificate of registration?

Answer 1

Type certificate - when new model is made (Its safe)

Certificate of registration - A specific aircraft is safe

Question 2

What are the Airframe Limitations

Answer 2

Maximum Take-Off Mass (MTOM)
> MSTOM - Fixed digits
> PLTOM - How environment affects it

Maximum Landing Mass (MLM)
> MLM - Fixed
> PLLM - Variable number (external conditions)

Maximum Zero Fuel Mass (MZFM)
> Max allowance with no usable fuel

Question 3

Maximum Take-Off Mass (MTOM)…

Answer 3

Maximum Structural Take-Off Mass

Performance Limited Take-Off Mass

Question 4

Maximum Landing Mass (MLM)…

Answer 4

Maximum Landing Mass

Performance Limited Landing Mass

Question 5

Maximum Zero Fuel mass (MZFM)…

Answer 5

Max allowance with no usable fuel

Question 6

Factors that affect air density are?

Answer 6

Altitude- higher = less dense

Temp - heat = expansion = less dense

Humidity - High humidity = less dense

Question 7

The density equation is..

Answer 7

Density = Mass (KG)/Volume (Litres)

Driving Motor Vehicle

Question 8

If there is a low density then…

Answer 8

Less air to mix with fuel for mixture

Less air molecules providing suction for lift (70% suction and 30% push)

Question 9

What is the relation between height and temp?

Answer 9

Every 1000ft = 2 degrees decrees

Question 10

Relationship between Pressure altitude and Flight level ?

Answer 10

FL - 050 = PA 5000

Question 11

The Fahrenheit equation is…

Answer 11

F = (C * 1.8) + 32

Question 12

Convert 20 degrees Celsius into Fahrenheit

Answer 12

68 degrees Fahrenheit

Question 13

Convert 98 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius

Answer 13

36.67 degrees Fahrenheit

Question 14

What are nine variables that affect Take-off/Landing Performance?

Answer 14

Aeroplane weight
Aerodrome Pressure altitude 
Temp
Wind
Runway length
Runway slope
Runway surface
Flap setting 
Humidity

Question 15

Open flaps Take-Off leads to…

Answer 15

More lift = shorter ground run needed
BUT
lower climb

Question 16

Closed flaps leads to…

Answer 16

Less lift = longer ground run needed BUT

higher/steeper climb

Question 17

At high altitude, there is a decrease in…

Answer 17

Temp
Humidity
Pressure

Question 18

Take-Off Distance speed needed is…

Answer 18

20% faster than stall speed

Question 19

Weight during take-off will…

Answer 19

Increase stalling speed and decrease climb performance

Increases ground run distance by 20%

Question 20

An increased density altitude means for take-off

Answer 20

A longer distance is needed

Question 21

The equation for Density Altitude is…

Answer 21

Density Altitude = Pressure Altitude (ft) +- (120 * ISA Deviation)

(+ if hotter)
(- if colder)

Question 22

The equation for temperature is…

Answer 22

Temp = 15 - (2 * Pressure Altitude/1000)

Question 23

With
SHORT, DRY, GRASS
the increase in distance is…

Answer 23

20%

Question 24

With
LONG, DRY, GRASS
the increase in distance is…

Answer 24

25%

Question 25

With LONG, WET, GRASS the increase in distance is...

Answer 25

35%

Question 26

If there is a 2% upslope then...

Answer 26

10% increase in distance

Question 27

If there is a 2% downslope then...

Answer 27

10% decrease in distance

Question 28

The safety factor for take off is...

Answer 28

1. 33 (e. g. If required runway is 1000m, upslope with short dry grass then equation would be 1000 * 1.1 * 1.2 * 1.33 = 1755.6 So an aircraft that only requires 1000m with these conditions would need 1755.6 m

Question 29

Landing Performance approach speed is...

Answer 29

30% higher than the stall speed | To allow for a go around if needed

Question 30

Landing Performance approach speed minimum is...

Answer 30

30% higher than the stall speed (1.3 multiplier) (To allow for a go around if needed)

Question 31

If weight is increased by 10% then...

Answer 31

distance to take-off increases by 10%

Question 32

Safety factor for landing is...

Answer 32

1.43

Question 33

Weight during Landing will...

Answer 33

Increase stalling speed (1.3 multiplier not enough)

Question 34

An increase in density Altitude when landing means...

Answer 34

A longer distance is needed

Question 35

Why take-off and Land into Headwind?

Answer 35

Take-off: Increases lift BUT slow Landing: Allows more air molecules to hit wing providing lift at slower Ground speeds

Question 36

Why not to Take-off and Land into tailwind?

Answer 36

Take-Off: Increases speed required to take off Extra distance needed 20% Landing: Groundspeed faster. longer runway needed

Question 37

When landing open flaps...

Answer 37

1) Stall speed decreased | 2) Steeper decline (See more)
