What is one purpose of wingflaps?
To enable the pilot to make Steve are approaches to a landing without increasing the airspeed
One of the main functions of flaps during approach and landing is to
Increase the angle of dissent without increasing the airspeed
What is the purpose of the writer on an airplane?
To control yaw
Which of the following is true concerning flaps?
Flaps allow an increase in the English of dissent without increasing your speed
The four forces acting on an airplane flight Are
Lift, weight, thrust, and drag
When are the four forces that act on airplane in the equilibrium?
During an unaccelerated level flight
What is the relationship of lift, drag, thrust, and weight when the airplane is in straight – and – level flight?
Lift equals weight and thrust equals drag
The term “angle of attack” is defined as the angle between the
Cord line of the wing and relative wind
The angle of attack in which an airplane wing stalls will
Remain the same regardless of gross weight
As altitude increases, the indicated airspeed at which a given airplane stalls in a particular configuration will
Remain the same regardless of the altitude
How will frost on the wings of an airplane affect takeoff performance?
Frost will disrupt the smooth flow of air over the wing, adversely affect think it’s lifting capability
Floating caused by the phenomenon of ground affect will be most realized during an approach to land when at
Less than the length of the wingspan above the surface
What force makes an airplane turn?
The horizontal component of lift
In the airplane said to be inherently stable will
Require less effort to control
The left turning tendency of an airplane caused by P – factor is the result of the
Propeller blade descending on the right, producing more thrust then the ascending blade on the left
Whet does P – factor cause the airplane to yaw to the left
When at high angles of attack
In the northern hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn toward the north if
And aircraft is accelerated while on an east or west heading
In the northern hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate initially a turn toward the west if
A right turn is enter from the north heading
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from the south heading in the northern hemisphere?
The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring
Which instruments will become inoperative if the pitot tube becomes clogged
Airspeed indicator
If the Pitot tube and the outside static vents become clogged, which instruments would be affected?
The altimeter, airspeed indicator, and vertical speed indicator
What is the full flap operating range from the airplane
55 to 100 kits
Altimeter three indicates
9,500
Which of the altimeter indicate more than 10,000 feet?
One and two only
