The beacon shows green, yellow, and white lights.
What is the Heliport beacon
200
The chart has a scale of 1:250,000 and it gives detailed information for busy airspace.
What is a TAC Chart

This is the only instrument that is affected if the Pitot tube is blocked.
What is the Air Speed Indicator
300
The principle that states "as a velocity of a fluid increases, its internal pressure decreases."
What is Bernoulli's principle
300
These lights are high intensity strobe lights that are also omni directional.
What are Runway End Identifier Lights
300
The dashed magenta line usually found around airports.
What is Class Echo at the surface

This type of pressure is sensed by the pitot tube.
What is Ram Air Pressure.
400
This is the angle at which a wing becomes stalled.
What is the Critical Angle of Attack
400
This line is only active when IFR approaches are being conducted and it is shown by a taxiway marking that looks like a yellow latter.
What is ILS Hold Short Line
