Question 1

(Refer to figure 1.) The acute angle A is the angle of

Accepted Answer

attack

Answer

dihedral

Answer

incidence

Question 2

The use of flaps in slow flight:

Accepted Answer

May be used

Answer

Can only be deployed ten degrees

Answer

Are never allowed to be used in slow flight

Question 3

During a spin to the left, which wing(s) is/are stalled?

Accepted Answer

Both wings are stalled

Answer

Only the left wing is stalled

Answer

Neither wing is stalled

Question 4

As altitude increases, the indicated airspeed at which a given airplane stalls in a particular configuration will

Accepted Answer

remain the same regardless of altitude

Answer

decrease as the true airspeed increases

Answer

decrease as the true airspeed decreases

Question 5

A stall occurs when:

Accepted Answer

The smooth airflow over the wing becomes turbulent reducing lift

Answer

The airplane’s speed is too slow for straight and level flight

Answer

The nose of the airplane is too high above the horizon

Question 6

The angle between the chord line of an airfoil and the relative wind is known as the angle of

Accepted Answer

attack

Answer

incidence

Answer

lift

Question 7

In slow flight, prior to a stalled condition:

Accepted Answer

The controls start to feel mushy—not as responsive

Answer

The nose of the airplane begins to bounce around the horizon

Answer

The noise of the propeller increases

Question 8

The angle of attack at which an airplane wing stalls will

Accepted Answer

remain the same regardless of gross weight

Answer

change with an increase in gross weight

Answer

increase if the CG is moved forward

Question 9

How is the stalling speed or minimum steady flight speed in the landing configuration symbolized?

Accepted Answer

VS0

Answer

VN0

Answer

Red radial line

Question 10

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
