Question 1

A category C aeroplane can carry out a circling approach only if the meteorological visibility is higher than or equal to:

Accepted Answer

2400 m

Answer

3600 m

Answer

1500 m

Answer

1600 m

Question 2

When an aeroplane with the centre of gravity forward of the centre of pressure of the combined wing / fuselage is in straight and level flight, the vertical load on the tailplane will be:

Accepted Answer

Downwards.

Answer

Zero because in steady flight all loads are in equilibrium.

Answer

Upwards.

Answer

Downwards because it is always negative regardless of the position of the centre of gravity.

Question 3

If radio communication is established during an interception but communications in a common language is not possible, which phrase should be pronounced by the intercepting aircraft to request the intercepted aircraft to descend for landing?

Accepted Answer

Descend

Answer

You land

Answer

Let down

Answer

Descend for landing

Answer

2 and 3 are correct, 1 is false

Answer

2 is correct, 1 and 3 are both false

Answer

1 and 2 are correct, 3 is false

Question 5

Change from IFR to VFR will always take place:

Accepted Answer

On the initiative of the aircraft commander

Answer

At the clearance limit, irrespective of the weather conditions

Answer

As instructed by an air traffic control unit

Answer

When the aircraft is leaving controlled airspace during VMC

Question 6

A jet transport has the following structural limits:-Maximum Ramp Mass: 63 060 kg-Maximum Take-off Mass: 62 800 kg-Maximum Landing Mass: 54 900 kg-Maximum Zero Fuel Mass: 51 300 kg. The aeroplane's fuel is loaded in accordance with the following requirements:-Taxi fuel: 400 kg. -Trip fuel: 8400 kg. -Contingency & final reserve fuel: 1800 kg. -Alternate fuel: 1100 kg. If the Dry Operating Mass is 34930 kg, determine the maximum traffic load that can be carried on the flight if departure and landing airfields are not performance limited.

Accepted Answer

16 370 kg

Answer

16 430 kg

Answer

17 070 kg

Answer

16 570 kg

Question 7

Under which of the following conditions is the most severe CAT likely to be experienced?

Accepted Answer

A curved jet stream near a deep trough

Answer

A straight jet stream near a low pressure area

Answer

A westerly jet stream at low latitudes in the summer

Answer

A jet stream, with great spacing between the isotherms

Question 8

True Air speed: 170 kt. Wind in the area: 270°/40 kt. According to the attached the navigation log, an aircraft performs a turn overhead BULEN to re-route to ARD via TGJ. The given wind conditions remaining constant. The fuel consumption during the turn is 20 litres. The total fuel consumption at position overhead ARD will be:

Accepted Answer

1 545 litres

Answer

1 182 litres

Answer

1 600 litres

Answer

1 326 litres

Question 9

When descending at a constant Mach number:

Accepted Answer

CAS increases.

Answer

The difference between surrounding conditions and ISA must be known to deduce the CAS variation.

Answer

CAS decreases.

Answer

CAS remains constant.

Question 10

What elements establish synergy within the crew?

Accepted Answer

Synergy must be built up from the start of the mission (briefing) and be maintained until it comes to an end (debriefing)

Answer

Synergy is independent of the natural individual characteristics of the group members (communication, mutual confidence, sharing of tasks, etc.)

Answer

Synergy establishes itself automatically within the crew, right through from briefing to debriefing

Answer

It is only the captain's status which allows the establishment of synergy within the crew
