Question 1

According to PART-CAT, for turbo-prop aeroplanes, the required runway length at a destination airport is:

Accepted Answer

The same as that required at an alternate airport.

Answer

Less then that required at an alternate airport.

Answer

More than that required at an alternate airport.

Answer

60% greater than that required at an alternate airport

Question 2

Maximum Tyre Speed can limit the Lift-off Speed. Which kind of speed can be directly used to determine this limitation?

Accepted Answer

Groundspeed

Answer

EAS

Answer

TAS

Answer

IAS

Question 3

The take-off runway performance requirements for transport category aeroplanes are based upon:

Accepted Answer

Failure of the critical engine or all engines operating whichever requirement gives the greater distance

Answer

All engines operating only

Answer

One engine inoperative only

Answer

Failure of the critical engine only

Question 4

The long range cruise speed is in relation to the speed for maximum range cruise.

Accepted Answer

Higher

Answer

Lower

Answer

Depending on density altitude and mass

Answer

Depending on the OAT and net mass

Question 5

A higher pressure altitude at ISA temperature:

Accepted Answer

Decreases the field length limited take-off mass

Answer

Increases the climb limited take-off mass

Answer

Decreases the take-off distance

Answer

Has no influence on the allowed take-off mass

Question 6

Which of the following statements with regard to the actual acceleration height at the beginning of the 3rd climb segment is correct?

Accepted Answer

The minimum value according to regulations is 400'

Answer

A lower height than 400 ft is allowed in special circumstances for example, noise abatement

Answer

The minimum value according to regulations is 1000'

Answer

There is no legal minimum value, because this will be determined from case to case during the calculation of the net flight path

Question 7

At a given mass, the reference stall speed of a twin engine turboprop aircraft is 100 KT in the landing configuration. The minimum speed a pilot must maintain in short final is:

Accepted Answer

123 KT

Answer

115 KT

Answer

125 KT

Answer

120 KT

Question 8

During certification flight testing on a four engine turbojet aeroplane the actual take-off distances measured are: -3050 m with failure of the critical engine recognised at V1; -2555 m with all engines operating and all other things being equal. The take-off distance adopted for the certification file is:

Accepted Answer

3050 m

Answer

3513 m

Answer

2938 m

Answer

2555 m

Question 9

At a constant Mach number the thrust and the fuel flow of a jet engine

Accepted Answer

Decrease in proportion to the ambient pressure at constant temperature.

Answer

Are independent of outside air temperature (OAT).

Answer

Increase with increasing altitude.

Answer

Increase in proportion to the ambient pressure at constant temperature.

Question 10

An aircraft has two certified landing flaps positions, 25° and 35°. If a pilot chooses 35° instead of 25°, the aircraft will have:

Accepted Answer

A reduced landing distance and degraded go-around performance

Answer

A reduced landing distance and better go-around performance

Answer

An increased landing distance and better go-around performance

Answer

An increased landing distance and degraded go-around performance
