What are your lost comms for navigating and altitude
MEA and AVEF
What limitation is imposed on you if you don’t have an Instrument Rating
Can’t fly for hire in excess of 50 NM or at night
What are the basic levels of learning
RUAC
This engine is defined as the one whose failure most adversely affects performance
The critical engine
DSU and FAA Fuel requirements
1 hr day and night
30 mins day and 45 mins night
SHARPTT
What is the PSI pressure that holds the gear up
1300
What are your defense mechanisms
DR DR F CPR
Define single engine device ceiling
The maximum altitude at which a multi-engine aircraft can continue climbing on one engine inoperative at 50 fpm
What is one way to calculate pressure altitude
Set the altimeter to 29.92
What does alternate minimums actually mean.
Alternate mins are the weather minimums required to list that airport as an alternate.
Define holding out
The act of offering or advertising air transportation services to the public
Explain Adverse Yaw
Uneven deflection of ailerons cause increased induced drag in one wing and decreased induced drag in the other, causing a yaw moment in the opposite direction of the turn
This is the aerodynamic reason the left engine is critical in most American twins
The descending blade of the right engine has a longer arm from centerline, creating more yaw when left fails
Why do we get Carburetor Icing up to 70°
What is
A mix of High humidity and the venturi system
What do you need to descend below your DA/MDA
What is
1.) The aircraft is continuously in a position from which a descent to a landing on the intended runway can be made at a normal rate of descent using normal maneuvers
2.)(2) The flight visibility is not less than the visibility prescribed in the standard instrument approach
3.) The approach light system, except that the pilot may not descend below 100 feet above the touchdown zone elevation using the approach lights as a reference unless the red terminating bars or the red side row bars are also distinctly visible and identifiable
14 CFR 119.1 tells you about what important information
Which operations require an air carrier or commercial operator certificate and also lists operations that do not require Part 119 certification, even if money is involved
What are the two types of drag
Induced
Parasite drag
What regulation tells you how VMC speed is determined
23.149
What are the 3 definitions regarding night flying and what are they for
Sunset-Sunrise
Evening Civil Twilight-Morning Civil Twilight
1 hour after sunset
Explain WAAS
Wide Area Augmentation System. System that enhances our gps systems through the use of ground base system
What is the pivotal altitude formula
With a ground speed of 125 what is your pivotal altitude
GS2/11.3
1382 ft
What is the the AC that will help you with endorsements
AC 61-65K
For a multiengine airplane with reciprocating, non turbocharged engines, how is VMC affected by altitude?
Vmc decreases as altitude increases
