ASC & DESC

 What letter represents the best angle of ascent?

• VX

• VY

• VR

• VZ

What are the keys to climb or ascend?

• Speed and weight

• speed and power

• Weight and power

• Thrust and lift 

How do you get the best climbing rate?

• Increasing speed

• Increasing the angle of attack

• Proper combination of power and speed

• Lowering speed and increasing stall

What provides the best angle of climb (Vx) speed?

• Provides the greatest altitude gain over in the least horizontal distance.

• Provides higher speed.

• Provides increased angle of attack

• Provides the greatest altitude gain over in the largest horizontal distance.

What is Climb?

• Basic maneuver that is created during the planning of the aircraft

• Basic maneuver during which an appropriate combination of power and attitude makes the aircraft gain altitude

• Maneuver that generates loss in the aircraft

• Maneuver that generates stall in the aircraft

What does 15:1 glide ratio mean?  

• That the aircraft registers 1 ft or m for every 15 ft or m that descends.  

• The mixture that the plane uses to descend.  

• Relationship between promotion and descent.

• That the aircraft registers 15 ft or m for each ft or m it descends.

Which one is the speed with the lowest rate of descent ?

• - Best climb speed

• - Best endurance Glide

• - worst endurance angle

• - Best increasing speed

The headwind shortens the distance traveled ("opposes" the aircraft) while the tailwind

• Elongates it ("pushes" the plane).

• Pushes back (“pushes” the plane)

• Shorten the distance

• Shorten the maneuvers

What should be used for a greater angle of descent?

• use of flaps

• greater angle of attack

• use of lower speed.

• smaller angle of attack

What should be used to make the angle of descent more pronounced or reduce the speed?

• Elevators down

• Ailerons

• Flaps, partially or totally.

• Rudder
