Test 10 Questions ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot license - Performance, no time limit

1 - Is there any difference between the vertical speed versus forward speed curves for two identical aeroplanes having different masses ? (assume zero thrust and wind) Yes, the difference is that the heavier aeroplane will always glide a greater distance. No difference. Yes, the difference is that the lighter aeroplane will always glide a greater distance. Yes, the difference is that for a given angle of attack both the vertical and forward speeds of the heavier aeroplane will be larger.

2 - The speed for maximum endurance Is the lower speed to achieve 99% of maximum specific range. Can either be higher or lower than the speed for maximum specific range. Is always lower than the speed for maximum specific range. Is always higher than the speed for maximum specific range.

3 - The landing field length required for jet aeroplanes at the alternate (wet condition) is the demonstrated landing distance plus 92% 67% 70% 43%

4 - What is the most important aspect of the 'backside of the power curve'? The altitude cannot be maintained. The aeroplane will not stall. The elevator must be pulled to lower the nose. The speed is unstable.

5 - To minimize the risk of hydroplaning during landing the pilot should: Use maximum reverse thrust, and should start braking below the hydroplaning speed. Use normal landing-, braking- and reverse technique. Make a 'positive' landing and apply maximum reverse thrust and brakes as quickly as possible. Postpone the landing until the risk of hydroplaning no longer exists.

6 - Maximum Tyre Speed can limit the Lift-off Speed.Which kind of speed can be directly used to determine this limitation? Groundspeed EAS TAS IAS

7 - Which combination of circumstances or conditions would most likely lead to a tyre speed limited take-off? A high runway elevation and tail wind A low runway elevation and a head wind A high runway elevation and a head wind A low runway elevation and a cross wind

8 - When compared to still air conditions, a constant headwind component: Increases the best rate of climb Decreases the angle of climb Increases the angle of flight path during climb Increases the maximum endurance

9 - Below the optimum cruise altitude: The IAS for long range cruise increases continuously with decreasing altitude The TAS for long range cruise increases continuously with decreasing altitude The Mach number for long range cruise decreases continuously with decreasing altitude The Mach number for long range cruise increases continuously with decreasing altitude

10 - Other factors remaining constant and not limiting, how does increasing pressure altitude affect allowable take-off mass? Allowable take-off mass increases There is no effect on allowable take-off mass Allowable take-off mass decreases Allowable take-off mass remains uninfluenced up to 5000' pressure altitude
