Question 2

While attempting a level turn, you begin to lose altitude. In addition to the natural horizon, what should you reference to make a correction?

Accepted Answer

Flight instruments

Answer

GPS moving map

Answer

Tachometer

Question 3

Excessively high engine temperatures, either in the air or on the ground, will

Accepted Answer

cause loss of power, excessive oil consumption, and possible permanent internal engine damage

Answer

result in damage to heat-conducting hoses and warping of cylinder cooling fans

Answer

increase fuel consumption and may increase power due to the increased heat

Question 4

When are non-rechargeable batteries of an emergency locator transmitter (ELT) required to be replaced?

Accepted Answer

When 50 percent of their useful life expires

Answer

Every 24 months

Answer

At the time of each 100-hour or annual inspection

Question 5

During an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will cause the airplane to

Accepted Answer

stall at a higher airspeed

Answer

have a tendency to spin

Answer

be more difficult to control

Question 6

A pilot and two passengers landed on a 2,100 foot east-west gravel strip with an elevation of 1,800 feet. The temperature is warmer than expected and after computing the density altitude it is determined the takeoff distance over a 50 foot obstacle is 1,980 feet. The airplane is 75 pounds under gross weight. What would be the best choice?

Accepted Answer

Wait until the temperature decreases, and recalculate the takeoff performance

Answer

Try a takeoff without the passengers to make sure the climb is adequate

Answer

Takeoff to the west because the headwind will give the extra climbout time needed

Question 7

When a plane comes out of ground effect with a deficiency in speed due to increased drag, it will experience:

Accepted Answer

Momentary loss in climb performance

Answer

Negative pitch attitude

Answer

Decrease in thrust required

Question 8

You must turn on your anti-collision lights:

Accepted Answer

Day and night, except when the pilot-in-command determines that they constitute a hazard to safety

Answer

At night or in inclement weather

Answer

Answer

Class D and Class G (below 10,000 feet MSL)

Answer

Class D and Class E (below 10,000 feet MSL)

Question 10
