1 - What effect has the elevation above MSL of an airfield on the carrying force and maximum take-off mass of a balloon? The lower the elevation, the lower the maximum take-off mass. The lower the elevation, the greater the carrying force. The lower the elevation, the higherthe maximum take-off mass. The higher the elevation, the greater the carrying force.

2 - Given the following masses: Empty mass 260 kg Instruments 20 kg per gas container (full): 30 kg per person: 80 kg Assuming temperature ISA+10, how many persons may be carried in the basket at maximum, if the balloon with 4 gas containers has to climb up to pressure altitude 12.000 ft ?

3 - While overflying a waypoint, it is stated that a distance of 2 NM has been taken 10 min. What will be the expected time of endurance for the complete distance of 18 NM? 60 min. 12 min. 180 min. 90 min.

4 - What is the purpose of "interception lines" in visual navigation? They are used as easily recognizable guidance upon a possible loss of orientation To visualize the range limitation from the departure aerodrome They help to continue the flight when flight visibility drops below VFR minima To mark the next available en-route airport during the flight

5 - At time of take-off, ground wind speed is 3 m/s. Along take-off flight path, at a distance of 360 m obstacles erect up to 40 m. What is the minimum rate of climb to keep a clearance of 50 m above the obstacles? (Consider double the ground wind speed for the flight path) 1 m/s 2 m/s 0.5 m/s 1.5 m/s

6 - While overflying a waypoint, it is stated that a distance of 3 NM has been taken 10 min. What will be the expected time of endurance for the remaining distance of 18 NM? 60 min. 12 min. 90 min. 180 min.

7 - Before take-off, the balloon pilot realises that the maximum take-off mass has been exceeded by 5%. What has to be done? The load has to be reduced to maximum take-off mass. During take-off, special care has to be taken for obstacles. With exceeding up to 5%, normal take-off can be performed. Take-off has to be approved by the airfield manager on duty.

8 - At time of take-off, ground wind speed is 3 m/s. Along take-off flight path, at a distance of 270 m obstacles erect up to 40 m. What is the minimum rate of climb to keep a clearance of 50 m above the obstacles? (Consider double the ground wind speed for the flight path) 1 m/s 2 m/s 1.5 m/s 0.5 m/s

9 - What effect has the elevation above MSL of an airfield on the carrying force and maximum take-off mass of a balloon? The higher the elevation, the lower the carrying force. The lower the elevation, the lower the maximum take-off mass. The lower the elevation, the higherthe maximum take-off mass. The higher the elevation, the greater the carrying force.

10 - Given the following masses: Empty mass 240 kg Instruments 20 kg per gas container (full): 30 kg per person: 80 kg Up to which pressure altitude can the balloon climb with 5 persons and 4 gas containers in the basket, assuming temperatures 10° below ISA?
