Answer

low as 0 °F and the relative humidity is high

Question 2

How will the wind affect your engine-out gliding distance?

Accepted Answer

A tailwind increases the gliding distance

Answer

A headwind increases your gliding distance

Answer

A tailwind decreases the gliding distance

Question 3

The most important rule to remember in the event of a power failure after becoming airborne is to

Accepted Answer

immediately establish the proper gliding attitude and airspeed

Answer

quickly check the fuel supply for possible fuel exhaustion

Answer

determine the wind direction to plan for the forced landing

Question 4

Ask the airport tower if they are receiving an ELT signal

Question 5

What effect will landing with a tailwind have during an engine-out approach and landing?

Accepted Answer

Increased landing distance

Answer

Decreased landing distance

Answer

Results in lower energy after the touchdown

Question 6

Detonation may occur at high-power settings when

Accepted Answer

the fuel mixture ignites instantaneously instead of burning progressively and evenly

Answer

an excessively rich fuel mixture causes an explosive gain in power

Answer

the fuel mixture is ignited too early by hot carbon deposits in the cylinder

Answer

Every 24 months

Answer

At the time of each 100-hour or annual inspection

Question 9

If a pilot suspects that the engine (with a fixed-pitch propeller) is detonating during climb-out after takeoff, the initial corrective action to take would be to

Accepted Answer

lower the nose slightly to increase airspeed

Answer

apply carburetor heat

Answer

lean the mixture

Question 10

When may an 121.5 MHz emergency locator transmitter (ELT) be tested?
