Slow Flight and Stalls - FAA PPL(A) - Private Pilot Airplane

Question 1

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 2

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 3

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 4

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 5

As the airplane slows down in flight, the angle of attack must be:

Accepted Answer

Increased to maintain altitude.

Answer

Remain the same

Answer

Decreased to maintain altitude.

Question 6

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 7

The term 'angle of attack' is defined as the angle between the

Accepted Answer

chord line of the wing and the relative wind

Answer

airplane's center line and the relative wind

Answer

airplane's longitudinal axis and that of the air striking the airfoil.

Question 8

In what flight condition must an aircraft be placed in order to spin?

Accepted Answer

Stalled

Answer

Partially stalled with one wing low

Answer

In a steep diving spiral

Question 9

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 10

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
