1 - Which of the following landing areas is most suitable for an off-field landing? A field with ripe waving crops A meadow without livestock A light brown field with short crops A lake with an undisturbed surface

2 - How should a glider plane be parked when observing strong winds? Nose into the wind, keep and weigh tail down Nose into the wind, extends air brakes, secure rudders Downwind wing on the ground, weigh wing down, secure rudders Windward wing on the ground, weigh wing down, secure rudders

3 - An off-field landing with tailwind is inevitable. How should the landing be conducted? Approach with reduced speed, expect shorter flare and ground roll distance Normal approach, when reaching landing site, extend spoiler flaps and push down elevator Approach with normal speed, expect longer flare and ground roll distance Approach with increased speed without use of spoiler flaps

4 - A gliding plane is about to pitch down due to stall. What rudder input can prevent nose-dive and spin? Ailerons neutral, rudder strongly kicked to lower wing Release elevator, rudder opposite to lower wing Keep airplane in level flight using rudder pedals Slightly pull the elevator, ailerons opposite to lower wing

5 - During airtow, in a turn the glider plane gets into an outward off-set position. What action should be taken by the glider pilot? Return glider plane to a position behind towing plane by a smaller curve radius using strong inputs on rudder pedals Take up same bank angle as towing plane and return glider plane to a position behind towing plane using rudder pedals Bring back glider plane to intended turning attitude using rudder and airlerons, extend spoiler flaps to reduce speed Initiate sideslip and let glider plane be pushed back to a position behind towing plane by increased drag

6 - In case of a cable break during winch launch, what actions should be taken in the correct order? Decouple cable, therafter push nose down; at heights up to 150m GND land straight ahead with increased speed Push firmly nose down, decouple cable, depending on terrain and wind decide for short pattern or landing straight ahead Initiate 180° turn and land opposite to runway heading in use, decouple cable before touch down Keep elevetor pulled, stabilize on minimum speed and land on remaining field length

7 - When commencing a steep turn, what has to be considered by the pilot? After achieving bank angle, reduce yaw using opposite rudder Commence turn with reduced speed according to aimed bank angle Commence turn with increased speed according to aimed bank angle After achieving bank angle, push the elevator to increase speed

8 - Why is it not allowed to launch wih the C.G. positioned beyond the aft limit? Because rudder inputs may not be sufficient for controlling flight attitude Because increased nose-down moment may not be compensated Because structural limits may be exceeded Because maximum permissable speed will be rduced significantly

9 - A gliding plane being airtowed gets into an excessive high position behind the towing plane. What action by the glider pilot can prevent further danger for glider and towing plane? Initiate a sideslip to reduce excessive height Pull strongly, therafter decouple the cable Carefully extend spoiler flaps, steer glider back into normal position Push strongly to bring glider back to normal position

10 - A wind shear is... A wind speed change of more than 15 kt. A meteorological downslope wind phenomenon in the alps. A vertical or horizontal change of wind speed and wind direction. A slow increase of the wind speed in altitudes above 13000 ft.
