Flight Training - August 2024 - 54

FINAL EXAM ANSWERS
Continued from p. 56
ADVERTISERS INDEX
1. The correct answer is A. Flying under thunderstorms
can subject aircraft to rain, hail, damaging
lightning, and violent turbulence. A good rule of
thumb is to circumnavigate thunderstorms identified
as severe, or giving an extreme radar echo,
by at least 20 nautical miles since hail may fall for
miles outside of the clouds. Pilot's Handbook of
Aeronautical Knowledge, Chapter 12
2. The correct answer is B. The elevator is one
of the three primary flight controls of an aircraft.
Failure or malfunction of a flight control system
must be reported to the NTSB immediately. NTSB
830.5(a)(1)
3. The correct answer is A. Immediately establish
the glide attitude, find the softest, most suitable
place to land, and prepare for an emergency, or
forced landing. PHAK, Chapter 2
4. The correct answer is A. By definition, a
high-performance airplane is one that has an
engine with more than 200 horsepower. While
there is no minimum training time required, the
pilot must have been found proficient in the operation
and systems of the airplane and received a
one-time endorsement in his or her logbook to
that effect. FAR 61.31(f)(1)
5. The correct answer is C. When aircraft of the
same category are converging at the same altitude,
the aircraft to the other's right has the right
of way. The aircraft on the left should yield the
right-of-way. This regulation generally assumes
both pilots see each other and will apply the rightof-way
rules; if there is ever a question, do what is
needed to pass clear, whether you have the right
of way or not. FAR 91.113(d)
6. True. Federal Aviation Regulation 91.21 prohibits
most portable electronic devices from being used
during IFR flight unless the pilot has determined
that a given device does not interfere with avionics.
However, AC 91.21-1D explains that pilots may
allow the use of devices during cruise flight; if the
device causes interference, it should be turned off
and the conditions recorded.
7. The correct answer is D. Atmospheric pressure
at 18,000 feet is half of that found at sea level.
The standard temperature at that altitude is minus
20.7 degrees Celsius.
8. Airspeed indicators of high-speed aircraft are
affected by air compression in the pitot system
that causes erroneously high airspeed indications.
Equivalent airspeed is the result of using
a computer or calculator to correct calibrated
airspeed for the effect of compression.
9. 500 feet, 1 sm. LIFR and MVFR stand for " low
IFR " and " marginal VFR, " respectively.
10. It is sort of an inverted Immelmann turn. It is
performed by applying full nose-down elevator
while in slow flight (or a climb) until completing
half of an outside loop and then making a half-roll
to return to level flight.
