The primary reason the angle of attack must be increased, to mantain a constant altitude during a coordinated turn, is because the Thrust is acting in a different direction, causing a reduction in airspeed and loss of lift. Vertical component of lift has decreased as the result of the bank Use of ailerons has increased in the drag.
Which is true regarding the use of flaps during level turns? The lowering of flaps increases the stall speed The raising of flaps increases the stall speed Raising flaps will require added forward pressure on the yoke or stick.
Defines VNO as Maximum operating limit speed Maximum structural cruising speed Never-exceed speed.
Airplane wing loading during a level coordinated turn in smooth air depends upon the Rate of turn Angle of bank True Airspeed.
The stalling speed of an airplane is most affected by Changes in air density Variations in flight altitude Variations in airplane loading.
During the transition from straight-and-level flight to a climb, the angle of attack is increased and lift Is momentarily decreassed Remains the same Is momentarily increased.
Load factor is the lift generated by the wings of an aircraft at any given time Divided by the total weight of the aircraft Multiplied by the total weight of the aircraft Divided by the basic empty weight of the aircraft.
Lift on a wing is most properly defined as the Force acting perpendicular to the relative wind Differential pressure acting perpendicular to the chord of the wing Reduced pressure resulting from a laminar flow over the upper camber of an airfoil which acts perpendicular to the mean camber.
While holding the angle of bank constant in a level turn, if the rate of turn is varied the load factor would Remain constant regardless of air density ant the resultant lift vector Vary depending upon speed and air density provided the resultant lift vector varies proportionately Vary dependieng upon the resultant lift vector.
Which is true regarding the forces acting on an aircraft in a steady-state descent? The sum of all Upward forces is less than the sum of all downward forces Forces is greater than the sum of all forward forces Forward forces is equal to the sum of all rearward forces.
What performane is characteristic of flight at maximum lift/drag ratio in a propeller-driven airplane? Maximum Gain in altitude over a given distance Range and maximum distance glide Coefficient of lift and minumum coefficient of drag.
The need to slow an aircraft below VA is brought about by the following weather phenomenon: High density altitude which increases the indicated stall speed Turbulence which causes an increase in stall speed Turbulence which causes a decrease in stall speed.
In theory, if the airspeed of an airplane is doubled while in level flight, parasite drag will become Twice as great Half as great Four times greater.
As airspeed decreases in level flight below that speed for maximum lift/drag ratio, total drag of an airplane Decreases because of lower parasite drag Increases because of increased induced drag Increases because of increased parasite drag.
If the airspeed is increased form 90 knots to 135 knots during a lever 60° banked turn, the load factor will Increase as well as the stall speed Decrease and the stall speed will increase Remain the same but the radius of turn will increase.

Which statement is true, regarding the opposing forces acting on an airplane in steady-state level flight? These forces are equal Thrust is greater than drag and weight and lift are equal Thrust is greater than drag and lift is greater than weight.
On a wing, the force of lift acts perpendicular to, and the force of drag acts parallel to the Chord line Flightpath Longitudinal axis.
An aircraft wing is designed to produce lift resulting from a difference in the Negative air pressure below and a vaccum above the wing's surface Vacuum below the wing's surface and greater air pressure above the wing's surface Higher air pressure below the wing's surface and lower air pressure above the wing's surface.
In theory, if the angle of attack and other factors remain constant and the airspeed is doubled, the lift produced at the higher speed will be The same as at the lower speed Two times reater than at the lower speed Four times greater than at the lower speed.

The spiraling slipstream, along with torque effect, tends to rotate the airplane to the Right around the vertical axis, and to the left around the longitudinal axis Left around the vertical axis, and to the right around the longitudinal axis Left around the vertical axis, and to the left around the longitudinal axis.
Which is true regarding the force of lift in steady, unaccelerated flight? At lower airspeeds the angle of attack must be less to generate sufficient lift to mantain altitude There is a corresponding indicated airspeed required for every angle of attack to generate sufficient lift to mantain altitude An airfoil will always stall at the same indicated airspeed, therefore, an increase in weight will require an increase in speed to generate sufficient lift to mantain altitude.

An airplane leaving ground effect will Experience a reduction in ground friction and require a slight power reduction Experience an increase in induced drag and require more thrust Require a lower angle of attacj to mantain the same lift coefficient.
One of the main functions of flaps during the approach and landing is to Decrease the angle of descent without increasing the airspeed Provide the same amount of lift at a slower airspeed Decrease lift, thus enabling a steeper-than-normal approach to be made.
The spoilers should be in what position when operating in a strong wind Extended during both a landing roll or ground operation Retracted during both a landing roll or ground operation Extended during a landing roll, but retracted during a ground operation.

If on an IFR flight plan, you are advised to be in radar contact, you must Obey all instructions from ATC regardless Obey all instructions from ATC only while in cloud Follow all possible instructions and advise ATC when unable to comply.
When flying a commercial route you are familiar with and you are in congested airspace you may instead of reading back all clearances and instructions peretitvely simply Say "Roger" to ATC without repeating tour call sign or flight number again, once you know ATC recognizes your voice Simply click your mike when answering obvious things to Arc so as to not congest the frequency Read back all clearances including your call sign and or flight # even if this is going to congest the frequency even more.
You must advice ATC if you cannor climb or descent to your assigned altitude if you cannot mantain at least No restriction if cleared at pilot discretion 500ft on climb and 1.500 ft on descent 500 FPM.

For which speed variation should you notify ATC? When the ground speed changes more than 5 knots When the average true airspeed changes 5 percent or 10 knots, whichever is greater Any time the ground speed changes 10MPH.
What does declaring "minimum fuel" to ATC imply? Traffic priority is needed to the destination airport Emergency handling is required to the nearest useable airport Merely an advisory that indicates an emergency situation is possible should any undue delay occur.
When ATC has no impossed any climb or descent restrictions and aircraft are within 1.000 feet or assigned altitude, pilots should attempt to both climb and descend at a rate of between 500 feet per minute and 1.000 feet per minute 500 feet per minute and 1,500 feet per minute 1,000 feet per minute and 2,000 feet per minute.
For IFR planning purposes, what are the compulsory reporting points when using VOR/DME or VORTAC fixes to define a direct route not on established airways? Fixes selected to define the route There are no compulsory reporting points unless advised by ATC At the changeover points.
What action should you take if your No. 1 VOR receiver malfunctions while operating in controlled airspace under IFR? Your aircraft is equipped with two VOR receivers. The No. 1 receiver has VOR/Localizer/Glide Slope capability and the No. 2 has only VOR/Localizer capability Report the malfunction immediately to ATC Continue the flight as cleared, no report is required Continue the approach and request a VOR or NDB approach.
During an IFR flight in IMC, a distress condition is encountered, (fire, mechanical, or structural failure). The pilot should Not hesitate to declare an emergency and obtain an amended clearance Wait until the situation is immediately perilous before declaring an emergency Contact ATC and advise that an urgency condition exists and request priority consideration.
During the en route phase of an IFR flight the pilot is advised " Radar service terminated". What action is appropriate? Set transponder to code 1200 Resume normal position reporting Activate the IDENT feature of the transponder to re-establish radar contact.
During an IFR flight in IMC, you enter a holding pattern ( At a fic that is not the same as the approach fix) with an EFC time of 1530. At 1520 you experience complete two-way communications failure. Which procedure should you follow to execute the approach to a landing? Depart the holding fix to arrive at the approach fic as close as possible to the EFC time and complete the approach Depart the holding fix at the EFC time, and complete the approach Depart the holding fix at the earliest of the flight planned ETA or the EFC time, and complete the approach.
Which procedure should you follow if you experience two-way communications failure white holding at holding fix with an EFC time? (The holding fix is not the same as the approach fix) Depart the holding fix to arrive at the approach fix as close as possible to the EFC time Depart the holding fix at the EFC time Proceed immediately to the approach fix and hold until EFC.
Which procedure should you follow if, during an IFR flight in VFR conditions you have two-way radio communications failure? Continue the flight under VFR and land as soon as practicable Continue the flight at assigned altitude and route, start approach at your ETA or, if late start approach upon arrival Land at the nearest airport that has VFR conditions.
What altitude and route should be used if you are fluin in IMC and have two way radio communications failure? Continue on the route specified in your clearance, fly at an altitude that is the highest of las assigned altitude, altitude ATC has informed you to expect, or the MEA Fly direct to an area that has been forecast to have VFR conditions, fly at an altitude that is at least 1000 feet above the highest obstacles along the route Descend to MEA and, if clear of clouds proceed to the nearest appropriate aorport. If not clear of clouds, mantain the highest of the MEA's along the clearance route.
In the event of two way radio communications failure while operation on an IFR clearance in VFR conditions the pilot should continue By the route assigned in the last ATC clearance received The flight under VFR and land as soon as practical The flight by the most direct route to the fix especified in the last clearance.
While flying on an IFR flight plan, you experience two-way communications radio failure while in VFR conditions. In this situation, you should continue your flight under VFR and land as soon as practicable VFR and proceed to your flight plan destination IFR and maintain the last assigned route and altitude to your flight plan destination.

In aircraft equipped with constant-speed propellers and normally-aspirated engines, which procedure should be used to avoid placing undue stress on the engine components? When power is being Decreased, reduce the RPM before reduing the manifold pressure Increased, increase the RPM before increasing the manifold pressure Increased or decreased, the RPM should be adjusted before the manifold pressure.
Which statement best describes the operating principle of a constant-speed propeller? As throttle setting is changed by the pilot, the prop governor causes pitch angle of the propeller blades to remain unchanged A high blade angle, or increased pitch, reduces the propeller drag and allows more engine power for takeoffs The propeller control regulates the engine RPM, and in turn, the propeller RPM.
Fuel/air ratio is the ratio between the Volume of fuel and volume of air entering the cylinder Weight of fuel and weight of air entering the cylinder Weight of fuel and weight of air entering the carburator.
To establish a climb after takeoff in an aircraft equipped with a constant-speed propeller, the outpit of the engine is reduced to climb power by decreasing manifold pressure and Increasing RPM by decreasing propeller blade angle Decreasing RPM by decreasing propeller blade angle Decreasing RPM by increasing propeller blade angle.
To develop maximum power and thrust, a constant.speed propeller should be set to a blade angle that will produce a Large angle of attack and low RPM Small angle of attack and high RPM Large angle of attack and high RPM.
For takeoff, the blade angle of a controllable-pitch propller should be set at a Small angle of attack and high RPM Large angle of attack and low RPM Large angle of attack and high RPM.
The reason for variations in geometric pitch (twisting) along a propeller blade is that it Permits a relatively constant angle of incidence along its length when in cruising flight Prevents the portion of the blade near the hub from stalling during cruising flight Permits a relatively constant angle of attack along its length when in cruising flight.
To establish a climb after takeoff in an aircraft esquipped with a constant-speed propeller, the output of the engine is reduced to climb power by decreasing manifold pressure and Increasing RPM by decreasing propeller blade angle Decreasing RPM by decreasingpropeller blade angle Decreasing RPM by increasin propeller blade angle.
A fixed pitch propeller is designed for best efficiency only at a given combination of Altitude and RPM Airspeed and RPM Airsped and altitude.
Unless adjusted, the fuel/air mixture becomes richer with an increase in altitude because the amount of fuel Decreases while the volume of air decreases Remains constant while the volume air decreases Remains constant while the density of air decreases.
