One typical takeoff error is. delayed rotation, which may extend the climb distance. premature rotation, which may increase takeoff distance. extended rotation, which may degrade acceleration.

Low pressure air decreases aircraft performance because. the air is denser than higher pressure air. the air is less dense than high pressure air. air expands in the engine during the combustion process.

What recovery would be appropriate in the event of compressor stall?. Reduce the throttle and then rapidly advance the throttle to decrease the angle of attack on the compressor blades, creating more airflow. Reduce the throttle and then slowly advance the throttle again and decrease the aircraft’s angle of attack. Advance the throttle slowly to increase airflow and decrease the angle of attack on one or more compressor blades.

Which maximum range factor decreases as weight decreases?. Angle of attack. Altitude. Airspeed.

Which operational requirement must be observed when ferrying a large, turbine- engine-powered airplane when one of its engines is inoperative?. The weather conditions at takeoff and destination must be VFR. Weather conditions must exceed the basic VFR minimums for the entire route, including takeoff and landing. The flight cannot be conducted between official sunset and sunrise.

How should thrust reversers be applied to reduce landing distance for turbojet aircraft?. Immediately after ground contact. Immediately prior to touchdown. After applying maximum wheel braking.

A definition of the term “viscous hydroplaning” is where. the airplane rides on standing water. a film of moisture covers the painted or rubbercoated portion of the runway. the tires of the airplane are actually riding on a mixture of steam and melted rubber.

At what speed, with reference to L/DMAX, does maximum rate-of-climb for a jet airplane occur?. A speed greater than that for L/DMAX. A speed equal to that for L/DMAX. A speed less than that for L/DMAX.

Which procedure produces the minimum fuel consumption for a given leg of the cruise flight?. Increase speed for a headwind. Increase speed for a tailwind. Increase altitude for a headwind, decrease altitude for a tailwind.

Upon landing, thrust reversers. are required to obtain the calculated stopping distances. should be deployed as soon as the nose wheel is in firm contact with the runway. should be deployed immediately upon landing when airspeeds are highest.

What characterizes a transient compressor stall?. Loud, steady roar accompanied by heavy shuddering. Sudden loss of thrust accompanied by a loud whine. Intermittent “bang,” as backfires and flow reversals take place.

Which term describes the hydroplaning which occurs when an airplane’s tire is effectively held off a smooth runway surface by steam generated by friction?. Reverted rubber hydroplaning. Dynamic hydroplaning. Viscous hydroplaning.

You are assigned to ferry a large, three-engine, turbojet-powered airplane from one facility to another to repair an inoperative engine. You know you are restricted to. VFR weather for takeoff, en route, and landing. flight crewmembers only aboard. a computed takeoff distance to reach V1 that cannot exceed 70 percent of the effective runway length.

What effect does an uphill runway slope have upon takeoff performance?. Increases takeoff distance. Decreases takeoff speed. Decreases takeoff distance.

What should a pilot do to maintain “best range” airplane performance when a tailwind is encountered?. Increase speed. Maintain speed. Decrease speed.

Under what conditions might a pilot expect the possibility of hydroplaning?. When landing on a wet runway that is covered in rubber from previous landings.

Those passenger-carrying transport aircraft certificated between August 26, 1957 and August 30, 1959. Turbine-engine-powered transport airplanes certificated after September 30, 1958. U.S. certified air carrier airplanes certificated after August 29, 1959.

You touchdown long with a speed of 145 knots on a 9,001 foot runway and the braking is not working, so you decide to takeoff and climb out. The engines require 5 seconds to spool up and then the airplane requires 10 seconds of acceleration time to lift off again. The 5,000 foot marker flashes by. Do you have enough runway to lift off? (Use 132 knots for the average groundspeed.). Yes, there will be a margin of 850 feet and almost 3 seconds of decision time. Yes, there will be a margin of 2,001 feet and almost 5 seconds of decision time. No, the runway is 1,340 feet too short and my decision is about 6 seconds too late.

What effect, if any, does high ambient temperature have upon the thrust output of a turbine engine?. Thrust will be reduced due to the decrease in air density. Thrust will remain the same, but turbine temperature will be higher. Thrust will be higher because more heat energy is extracted from the hotter air.
