Systems
The kind of engine the Cirrus SR-20 has and the four strokes of an internal combustion reciprocating engine.
Lycoming, 4 cylinder, Horizontally opposed, Air cooled, Naturally aspirated, Direct drive engine. L4HAND. Intake, Compression, Combustion, Exhaust.
When will a stall occur?
Responsibility and authority of Pilot in Command.
What causes weather
The uneven heating of earths surface
What are the two methods of VFR cross country navigation.
Pilotage and Dead Reckoning
The kind of flap the Cirrus SR-20 has and the max speed for different flap configurations.
Single slotted Flaps, 150 kts for 50% flaps and 110 kts for 100% flaps.
What are the 4 turning tendencies and describe them?
Spiral slipstream (prop tip vortices circling around fuselage and impacting vertical stab causing a yawing moment). Torque (the propellor spinning one way wants to twist the aircraft along the longitudinal axis the other way causing a rolling moment) P-Factor (descending prop creates more thrust then ascending prop especially during high AOA creating a yaw moment) Gyroscopic Precession (a force acted upon a gyroscope will be felt 90 degrees in the direction of rotation)
