When approaching to land at an airport with an ATC facility, in Class D airspace, the pilot must establish communications prior to ______________________.
4NM up to and including 2500 MSL
How many flight hours are required for a 141 commercial course?
120
How much does one gallon of avGas weigh?
6 lbs/gal
This causes the aircraft to yaw in the opposite direction of the turn when establishing a bank.
What is adverse yaw?
This engine abnormality occurs when the fuel/air mixture is too lean, causing the fuel/air mixture to ignite suddenly rather than burning evenly inside the cyllinder
Detonation
What is the purpose of the ILS critical area?
To keep aircraft and airport vehicles from interfering with localizer or glide slope frequencies while the ILS is in use
A fire that occurs in flight that does not damage anything should be immediately reported to whom?
the NTSB
