1 - Collisions during circling within thermal updrafts can be avoided by... Alternate circling with opposite directions in different heights. Imitating the movements of the preceeding gliding plane. Coordination of plane movements with other aircrafts circling within the same updraft Fast approach into the updraft and rapidly pulling the elevator for slower speed.

2 - What is indicated by "buffeting" noticable at elevator stick? C.G. position too far ahead Glider plane very dirty Too slow, wing airflow stalled Too fast, turbulence bubbles hitting on aileron

3 - Trim masses or lead plates must be secured firmly when installed into a gliding plane, so that... The maximum allowed mass will not be exceeded. A comfortable seat position will be assured for the glider pilot. They will not block rudders or induce any C.G. shift. The glider pilot will not be hurt during flight in thermal turbulences.

4 - Before a winch launch, you detect a light tailwind. What has to be considered? Roll until lift-off will take a little longer, watch speed A weaker rated-brake-point can be used, load will be smaller Roll until lift-off will be shorter since tailwind is pushing from behind To reach more height, full pull on the elevator after lift-off

5 - During a winch launch, after reaching full climb attitude, the airspeed indicator fails. What action should be taken by the glider pilot? Continue launch to normal altitude, use horizontal image and airstream noise to conduct flight as planned Try to re-establish airspeed indication by abrupt changes of speed during launch Push elevator, decouple cable and perform short pattern with minimum speed Continue launch to normal altitude, use horizontal image and airstream noise for pattern and landing right away

6 - After landing, you realize you lost your pen which might have fallen down in the cockpit of the sailplane. What has to be considered? Lighter, loose bodies in the fuselage can be considered uncritical Before next take-off, the cockpit has to be firmly inspected for loose bodies. A flight without a pen at hand is not permitted Succeeding pilots have to be informed about that

7 - When landing with tailwind, the pilot has to... Approach with normal speed and shallow angle. Compensate tailwind by sideslip. Increase approach speed. Land with gear retracted to shorten ground roll distance

8 - During an approach the aeroplane experiences a windshear with a decreasing headwind. If the pilot does not make any corrections, how do the approach path and the indicated airspeed (IAS) change? Path is higher, IAS increases Path is lower, IAS decreases Path is lower, IAS increases Path is higher, IAS decreases

9 - Which weather phenomenon is typically associated with wind shear? Fog Stable high pressure areas. Invernal warm front. Thunderstorms.

10 - Flying slow close to stall conditions, the left wings is lower than the right wing. How can the stall be prevented? Push on the elevator, keep wings level with coordinated inputs on rudder and aileron Aileron and rudder to the reight, gain some speed, push slightly on the elevator, all rudders neutral Airleron to the right, push slighty on the elevator, gain some speed, all rudders neutral Rudder left, push slightly on the elevator, gain some speed, all rudders neutral
