Pitot static

What is the main function of the pitot-static system in an aircraft?

• Provide navigation data.

• Measure airspeed and altitude.

• Indicate flight direction.

• Indicate flight direction.

Which instrument uses static pressure to display the aircraft's altitude?

• Vertical speed indicator.

• Altimeter.

• Heading indicator.

• Turn coordinator.

Which of the following instruments is directly affected by pitot tube pressure?

• Altimeter

• Vertical speed indicator

• Airspeed indicator

• Turn coordinator

Which instrument provides information about the aircraft's rate of climb or descent?

• Altimeter.

• Turn coordinator.

• Vertical speed indicator (VSI).

• Airspeed indicator.

Which of the following factors can cause an error in the altimeter reading?

• Pitot tube failure.

• Excessive speed.

• Variable atmospheric pressure.

• Crosswind.

What happens if the pitot tube becomes blocked during flight?

• The airspeed indicator will stop functioning correctly.

• The altimeter will show an incorrect altitude.

• The turn coordinator will fail.

• The heading indicator will be affected.

Which instrument uses static pressure to provide information?

• Airspeed indicator.

• Turn coordinator.

• Altimeter.

• Heading indicator.

How is the altimeter reading affected if the static pressure is blocked?

• It indicates a constant increase in altitude.

• It shows a fixed altitude.

• It indicates a constant decrease in altitude.

• It shows the airspeed.

What is the main function of the vertical speed indicator (VSI)?

• To display the aircraft's true speed.

• To show the rate of altitude change.

• To indicate flight direction.

• To measure cabin pressure

Which instrument relies on both static and dynamic pressure?

• Airspeed indicator.

• Vertical speed indicator.

• Altimeter.

• Turn coordinator.
