Don't miss anything!
If an emergency is encountered where ATC assistance is desired and not already in contact what frequency should be used to establish communications? - ANSWER>>121.5 MHz.
When arriving to land at an airport without an operating control tower in Class G airspace each pilot must make: - ANSWER>>All turns to the left.
Wingtip vortices are generated only when an aircraft is - ANSWER>>developing lift.
Who has final authority to accept or decline any land and hold short (LAHSO) clearance?
The takeoffs and landings required to meet the recency of experience requirements for carrying passengers in a tailwheel airplane - ANSWER>>must be to a full stop.
To minimize side loads on the landing gear at touchdown, the pilot should keep the - ANSWER>>longitudinal axis of the aircraft parallel to the direction of its motion.
Outside controlled airspace, other than below 1,200 feet AGL, and at altitudes less than 10,000 feet MSL, the minimum flight visibility for VFR flight at night is - ANSWER>> miles.
The 'yellow demarcation bar' marking identifies a - ANSWER>>runway with a displaced threshold preceding the runway.
To operate at night in Class E airspace you need - ANSWER>>3 miles visibility and 1, feet above, 500 feet below and 2,000 feet horizontally from each cloud.
Which type of weather briefing should a pilot request to supplement mass disseminated data? - ANSWER>>An abbreviated briefing.
While operating in class D airspace, each pilot of an aircraft approaching to land on a runway served by a visual approach slope indicator (VASI) shall - ANSWER>>maintain an altitude at or above the glide slope until a lower altitude is necessary for a safe landing
Angle of attack
The term 'angle of attack' means the angle - ANSWER>>between the wing chord line and the relative wind.
Floating caused by the phenomenon of ground effect will be most realized during an approach to land when at - ANSWER>>less than the length of the wingspan above the surface.
With certain exceptions, when must each occupant of an aircraft wear an approved parachute - ANSWER>>When intentionally pitching the nose of the aircraft up or down 30° or more.
A stall occurs when: - ANSWER>>The smooth airflow over the wing becomes turbulent reducing lift.
In what flight condition is torque effect the greatest in a single-engine airplane? - ANSWER>>Low airspeed, high power, high angle of attack.
An airport's rotating beacon operated during daylight hours indicates - ANSWER>>that weather at the airport located in Class D airspace is below basic VFR weather minimums.
What is an advantage of a constant-speed propeller? - ANSWER>>Permits the pilot to select the blade angle for the most efficient performance.
How does the wake turbulence vortex circulate around each wingtip? - ANSWER>>Outward, upward, and around each tip.
To get a complete weather briefing for the planned flight, the pilot should request - ANSWER>>a standard briefing.
