TEST PILOT
|
BY BARRY SCHIFF
1. From reader Martha Lunken: Many military pilots during and
shortly after World War II were trained in advanced aircraft using
Captivairs. What were these?
2. A pilot has a 120-knot airplane powered by a 200-horsepower

that theoretically will double cruise performance. Everything
else being equal, the new engine must produce approximately
_______ times as much power.
A. two (400 horsepower)
B. four (800 horsepower)
C. six (1,200 horsepower)
D. eight (1,600 horsepower)
50 |
5. From reader Brian Schiff: Who is credited with being first to
use "captain" instead of "first pilot" as the title for the pilot in command of an airliner?
6. How can a pilot tell the difference between the aural Morse code
identifier of a DME transmitter and the same Morse code identifier of the colocated VOR transmitter?

JOHN HOLMS
3. True or false? Between 1953 and 1970, United Airlines operated scheduled flights exclusively for men between New York
and Chicago and between Los Angeles and San Francisco during
which cigar and pipe smoking was allowed, but women and children were not.
4. Charles was a
wealthy sportsman
and engineer who
was eventually killed
in a Wright Flyer.
Henry struggled
from humble beginnings to become an
engineer. Their first
creation went into
production in 1907.
What are the last names of this famous duo?
