ATPL Flight Planning and Monitoring Questions in English

Practise Flight Planning and Monitoring

Dry operating mass is 33510 kg and traffic load is 7600 kg. Final reserve fuel is 983 kg, destination alternate fuel 1100 kg and contingency fuel 102 kg. At landing at the alternate, assume the alternate fuel has been consumed completely, while the final reserve and the entire contingency fuel remain unused. What is the estimated landing mass at the alternate? 4 Answers Dry operating mass is 33000 kg and traffic load is 8110 kg. Final reserve fuel is 983 kg, destination alternate fuel 1100 kg and contingency fuel 102 kg. At landing at the alternate, assume the alternate fuel has been consumed completely, while the final reserve and the entire contingency fuel remain unused. What is the estimated landing mass at the alternate? 4 Answers Given: maximum allowable take-off mass 64400 kg maximum landing mass 56200 kg maximum zero fuel mass 53000 kg dry operating mass 35500 kg estimated load 14500 kg estimated trip fuel 4900 kg minimum take-off fuel 7400 kg Find the maximum allowable take-off fuel: 4 Answers Using the attached navigation log, an aircraft turns overhead BULEN to return to ARD via TGJ. TAS remains 170 kt and wind 270 degrees/40 kt. For each sector, assume the same fuel-flow rate as on the outbound sector in the log; the turn uses 20 litres. Which listed total fuel consumption at ARD is closest to the calculated estimate? 4 Answers You are to determine the maximum fuel load which can be carried in the following conditions: - dry operating mass: 2800 kg - trip fuel: 300 kg - traffic load: 400 kg - maximum take-off mass: 4200 kg - maximum landing mass: 3700 kg 4 Answers Before taxi the aircraft has 160 lb of usable block fuel. It consumes 13 lb during taxi. After 38 minutes airborne, 100 lb remain. Destination alternate fuel is 30 lb and final reserve fuel is 50 lb. If the airborne fuel flow remains unchanged, approximately how many further minutes can be flown to the destination while retaining both reserves? 4 Answers During a VFR flight at a navigational checkpoint the remaining usable fuel in tanks is 60 US gallons. The reserve fuel is 12 US gallons. According to the flight plan the remaining flight time is 1h35min. Calculate the highest acceptable rate of consumption possible for the rest of the trip. 4 Answers The fuel plan gives trip fuel of 65 US gallons, destination alternate fuel including final reserve of 17 US gallons, and contingency fuel of 5% of the planned trip fuel. Usable fuel at take-off is 93 US gallons. Halfway along the planned distance, 40 US gallons have been consumed. Assume actual fuel consumption per nautical mile remains unchanged for the rest of the route. Which statement is correct? 4 Answers For this exercise, planned airborne trip time is 3 h 06 min, taxi fuel is 8 kg and block fuel is 118 kg. Block fuel consists only of taxi fuel, planned trip fuel and an initial reserve equal to 30% of planned trip fuel. Planned trip fuel flow is constant. The exercise requires a reserve of at least 30% of the remaining trip fuel at every point. After 2 hours airborne, what minimum trip fuel and reserve are required for the remaining flight, rounded to the nearest kg? 4 Answers For this exercise, planned airborne trip time is 2 h 42 min, taxi fuel is 9 kg and block fuel is 136 kg. Block fuel consists only of taxi fuel, planned trip fuel and an initial reserve equal to 30% of planned trip fuel. Planned trip fuel flow is constant. The exercise requires a reserve of at least 30% of the remaining trip fuel at every point. After 2 hours airborne, what minimum trip fuel and reserve are required for the remaining flight, rounded to the nearest kg? 4 Answers
