Question 1

The possibility of carburetor icing exists even when the ambient air temperature is as

Accepted Answer

high as 70 °F and the relative humidity is high

Answer

high as 95 °F and there is visible moisture

Answer

low as 0 °F and the relative humidity is high

Question 2

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 3

If the engine oil temperature and cylinder head temperature gauges have exceeded their normal operating range, the pilot may have been operating with

Accepted Answer

too much power and with the mixture set too lean

Answer

the mixture set too rich

Answer

higher-than-normal oil pressure

Question 4

If an emergency situation requires a downwind landing, pilots should expect a faster

Accepted Answer

groundspeed at touchdown, a longer ground roll, and the likelihood of overshooting the desired touchdown point

Answer

groundspeed at touchdown, a shorter ground roll, and the likelihood of undershooting the desired touchdown point

Answer

airspeed at touchdown, a longer ground roll, and better control throughout the landing roll

Question 5

If an in-flight emergency requires immediate action, the pilot in command may

Accepted Answer

deviate from any rule of 14 CFR Part 91 to the extent required to meet that emergency

Answer

Answer

not deviate from any rule of 14 CFR Part 91 unless prior to the deviation approval is granted by the Administrator

What is the best course of action right after the engine quits in flight?

Accepted Answer

Use the emergency checklist if practical

Answer

Complete the emergency checklist immediately

Answer

Call ATC and declare an emergency

Question 8

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

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
