They are magnetic bearings from the VOR station.

Answer

They are true bearings to the station.

Answer

They measure distance in kilometres only.

Answer

They are pressure levels.

Answer

111 NM

Answer

10 NM

Answer

1 NM

Accepted Answer

7° left

Answer

7° right

Answer

3° left

Answer

3° right

Question 4

Question 5

Which action best supports safe management of magnetic variation update?

Accepted Answer

Use current chart or database values.

Answer

Delay the decision until after take-off.

Answer

Use the item only if requested by passengers.

Answer

Ignore it when the helicopter has sufficient fuel.

Question 6

True course is 080° and magnetic variation is 3° E. What is the magnetic course?

Accepted Answer

077°

Answer

083°

Answer

087°

Answer

067°

Question 7

For a short flight from A to B the pilot extracts the following information from an aeronautical chart: True course: 245°. Magnetic variation: 7° W The magnetic course (MC) equals...

Accepted Answer

252°.

Answer

245°.

Answer

007°.

Answer

238°.

Question 8

Which action best supports safe management of track made good?

Accepted Answer

Compare it with planned track and correct drift.

Answer

Delay the decision until after take-off.

Answer

Use the item only if requested by passengers.

Answer

Ignore it when the helicopter has sufficient fuel.

Question 9

Which statement about latitude is correct?

Accepted Answer

It is measured north or south of the Equator.

Answer

It is measured east or west of Greenwich.

Answer

It is the same as magnetic heading.

Answer

It is the angular distance from the local meridian to the aircraft heading.

Question 10

Why is magnetic variation update important for a PPL(H) flight?

Accepted Answer

Outdated variation can create heading and bearing errors.

Answer

It is relevant only to airline transport operations.

Answer

It can be ignored when the flight remains local.

Answer

It is replaced by passenger preference.
