laterally

up

vertical

b)

horizontal

c)

lateral

half throttle

3/4 throttle

full throttle

9/16th of a throttle

6.

 

How do you bank an aircraft in the air?

a)

both hands on the yoke steer the way you want to go like a car

b)

Use coordinated rudder pedal and aileron with the yoke in the direction of the turn

c)

put the flaps down

7.

How does Bernoulli's principle explain lift?

a)

As the mass of a gas slows like air gets heavier it pushes down on the plane making it go down

b)

As the speed of air increases below the wing it deceases making for lower pressure

c)

As the speed of the air over the camber of the upper surface of the wing increases it's pressure decreases and is lower air pressure than the air pressure under the wing

8.

What is Newton's First Law?

a)

An object at rest tends to stay at rest or if in motion tends to stay in motion unless another force acts upon it

b)

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

c)

the same amount of force exerted on systems of different masses produces different accelerations. in speed (velocity) on an object

9.

What is Newton's Third Law?

a)

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

b)

An object at rest tends to stay at or if in motion tends to stay in motion unless another force acts upon it

c)

The same amount of force exerted on systems of different masses produce different accelerations in speed (velocity) on an object

10.

 

On the Cessna the little prong like device hanging under the pilot side wing is the

a)

totally tubular wha tyou call it

b)

pitot tube

c)

static port

d)

attitude indicator

11.

 

What is an important airspeed limitation that is not color coded on the Airspeed Indicator?

a)

VA maneuvering speed

b)

never exceed speed

c)

VSO

d)

Flap operating range

12.

1If a flight is made from an area of higher pressure into an area of lower pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted to airport recorded barometric pressure, your airplane will be

a)

lower

b)

higher

c)

higher than lower

d)

lower than higher

13.

When you are at the bottom of the white arc on the airspeed indicator which V-speed indicates maximum flap extended speed which is the fastest speed at which you can use flaps without damaging or tearing them off?

a)

VNO

b)

VFE

c)

VS1

d)

EFE

14.

If you don't adjust your altimeter with the knob at the little Kollsman window of the altimeter at least for take off and landings, why would an incorrect altimeter reading be a problem?

a)

It's not a problem just make sure you set it before you take off

b)

It's not a problem just make sure you set it before you land

c)

If your altimeter is off your plane's altimeter could be off so that the aircraft is either lower than you think and might not clear objects at the end of the runway and hit the landing a lot sooner than you think or higher than you think you might land farther down the runway and run out of room

d)

there's no need to set it it sets automatically

15.

Usually the higher you fly up in altitude the ____________ the temperature

a)

lower

b)

higher

c)

ups and downs then it's lower

d)

ups and downs then it's higher

16.

Usually the higher you fly up in altitude the air pressure gets __________ and the air gets ______________

a)

higher, thicker

b)

lower, thinner

c)

higher, thinner

d)

lower, thicker

b)

the airspeed indicator and vertical speed indicator

c)
