The aircraft flying at slower speed. The aircraft flying at higher altitude. The aircraft flying at higher speed.

14 - What should be observed when taxiing behind a commercial airliner? To avoid the jet blast, a minimum distance of 200 m should be maintained To avoid the jet blast, a minimum distance of 600 m should be maintained To avoid wake turbulence, a minimum distance of 300 m should be maintained To avoid wake turbulence, a minimum distance of 700 m should be maintained

15 - A wind shear is... A vertical or horizontal change of wind speed and wind direction. A wind speed change of more than 15 kt. A meteorological downslope wind phenomenon in the alps. A slow increase of the wind speed in altitudes above 13000 ft.

16 - What should be the first action in case of a cable fire during a flight? Open the windows Turn off the master switch Close the fuel valve Open cabin ventialtion

17 - What needs to be observed in particular when performing a slope landing? Direction of rotation of the main rotor Slipping of the helicopter Width of the landing skids. Faulty navigation lights.

18 - In flight, a little smoke emerges from behind the instrument panel. An electrical fire is suspected. Which action, with respect to the pilot's operating manual, should be taken? Shut down the engine Turn off the heat Use the fire extinguisher Turn off the master switch

19 - What extinguishing agent is the least suitable for an aircraft fire? Powder Water Foam Halon

20 - During an approach the aeroplane experiences a windshear with an increasing headwind. If the pilot does not make any corrections, how do the approach path and the indicated airspeed (IAS) change? Path is higher, IAS increases Path is higher, IAS decreases Path is lower, IAS increases Path is lower, IAS decreases

21 - Wake turbulence is particularly strong... When flying at low speeds. When flying at high altitudes. When flying at low altitudes. When flying at high speeds.

22 - Which items should a passenger briefing in case of an imminent emergency landing include? Blood type of the other aircraft occupants, location of the first-aid kit Nature of the emergency, intentions, safety position, evacuation routes, actions after landing How to work the aircraft radio, emergency transponder squawk, telephone number of the competent search and rescue (SAR) center How to read an emergency checklist, how to cut the engine, telephone number of the home airport

23 - During an approach the aeroplane experiences a windshear with a decreasing headwind. If the pilot does not make any corrections, how do the approach path and the indicated airspeed (IAS) change? Path is lower, IAS increases Path is higher, IAS increases Path is higher, IAS decreases Path is lower, IAS decreases

24 - What should be considered regarding a scheduled flight over water, when land cannot be reached in case of an emergency landing? The flight plan has to contain the exact waypoints Contact to the nearest ATC shall consist during the whole flight Transponder code 7600 has to be set during the whole flight For all passengers there must be life jackets or lifeboats present

28 - When should turns at low altitudes above villages be avoided with regard to noise abatement procedures? In horizontal flight In climb In descent During the approach

29 - A precautionary landing is a landing... Conducted in response to circumstances forcing the aircraft to land. Conducted with the flaps retracted. Conducted in an attempt to sustain flight safety. Conducted without power from the engine.

30 - May an engine, which previously was on fire, be restarted? Yes, but only if the cause of the fire was a carburettor fire during engine start Yes, but only on the ground for the purpose of taxiing No, the risk of a reignition of the fire would be too high Yes, if the aircraft is flying at a safe altitude
