How are clouds formed
Evaporation.
Under VFR, a pilot must maintain visual reference to this at all times during flight.
the ground or horizon.
This is the name of the temperature at which air becomes saturated and condensation begins.
The Dew point
This force pulls the aircraft toward the Earth.
Gravity.
The Cessna 152 has this type of landing gear.
Tricycle gear.
What is the name of the cloud that is typically the result of thunderstorms.
The Cumulonimbus Cloud
The minimum age to hold a private pilot licence and fly VFR solo in most countries is usually this.
17 years old
This wind-related effect occurs when wind speed increases as it flows over hills or ridges, causing?
Turbulence
The force that acts opposite to thrust and slows the aircraft down.
Drag.
What is the maximum flap setting in degrees on a Cessna 152.
Before flying, you check the weather by looking at this type of report.
METAR Weather report
This document must be carried on board and available to the pilot when flying under VFR.
Pilots licence or Pilot Certificate
What is the most common cloud that forms below 8000 Feet
The Cumulus Cloud
This law explains that an object will stay at rest or keep moving in a straight line unless acted on by a force.
Newtons first law of motion.
What is the wingspan of the Cessna 152
10 meters
When the dew point and air temperature are close together, you might expect this to form.
Fog.
When flying VFR, pilots must obey instructions given by this authority in controlled airspace.
ATC (Air Traffic Control
This term describes the weather conditions that allow a pilot to fly under VFR.
Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC)
As air moves faster over the top of a wing, the pressure drops. This is explained by this principle.
Bernoulli’s Principle.
How is the airspeed of the Cessna 152 determined
The pitot tube
These high-altitude clouds often appear thin and wispy and are made of ice crystals.
Cirrus clouds
What is the Minimum Visibility required for a VFR flight
What is a jet stream and how are they used
Jet streams are high speed winds that go in a certain direction that airliners use to travel faster and longer.
How does Rain typically affect Lift
According to the Coanda Effect; A fluid stream tends to follow the contour of a curved surface. Air sticks to the curved upper surface of the wing and is deflected downward, contributing to lift. (newtons version)
What is the name of the system that diverts warm air into the engine
carburetor.
