AFOQT NEW EXAM 100% CORRECT!!!Manufacturer's Empty Weight (MEW)-ANSWER the total weight of the aircraft as it was
built. Includes systems and components required for the aircraft to operate. Does NOT
include the weight of the baggage, passengers, or either usable or unusable fuel or
fluid.
Operating Empty Weight (OEW) - ANSWER the MEW plus the weight of the crew, fluids,
unusable fuel, and the equipment required for flight. Does NOT include baggage,
passengers, or usable fuel.
All-Up Weight (AUW) or Aircraft Gross Weight (AGW) - ANSWER the total aircraft weight
at any given moment during a flight. The AUW decreases as fuel and fluids are
consumed during the operation of the flight.
Maximum Landing Weight (MLW)- ANSWER the maximum weight an aircraft is permitted
to have for landing. For any weight excess, it put a high level of stress on the landing
gear, besides probably lengthening the landing distance.
Maximum Zero Fuel Weight (MZFW)- ANSWER the maximum allowable weight of an
aircraft with its contents along with unusable fuel. The total MZFW does not include the
weight of usable fuel on board, plus any other fluids that might be consumed.
MTOW - Answer the maximum weight limit of an aircraft taking off. If a flight has more
than this weight on it, the power requirements to take off will be much higher, runway
distance required for a successful lift-off will also be greater, and the additional weight
causes undue stress to the structure of the aircraft.
Maximum Ramp Weight (MRW)-Answer the maximum weight allowance an aircraft can
taxi or be tugged on the ground.
Flight Envelope ANSWER This includes the speed, altitude, and angle of attack that any
,aircraft would need to fly stably. If all or some are combined incorrectly, then there may
be a stall, which states that an aircraft undergoes a decline in lift, thereby reducing
airspeed.
Angle of Attack (AOA) - ANSWER the angle measured between the direction of airflow
against the wing and the chord (an imaginary reference line the extends from the
leading edge to the trailing edge of the wing
Ailerons - ANSWER Located on from the midpoint of the trailing edge of the wing to the
wing's tip. Help with roll control
Flaps- located on the trailing edge of the wing; increases the surface area of the wing
and is deflected downward to push the flow of air downward. Allow planes to lift off at
slower speeds.
Spoilers - ANSWER Located directly forward of the trailing edge flaps to assist the
ailerons in roll control and to act as speed brakes for descent and landing. Extend
upward to help reduce airspeed ex: raised when landing to help assist brakes in slowing
airplane down
Drag - ANSWER air resistance experienced during flight
Parasite Drag - ANSWER any "parasite" on the structure of the aircraft: low air pressure
in the tires, skin friction (any rough spot on the skin of the aircraft structure) This along
with any rivet heads which might project above the skin, creates drag on the air current
flowing over the wing.
Profile Drag - ANSWER Sustained mainly by the profile of the aircraft. A slimly designed
aircraft with lesser dimensions reduces profile drag.
Induced Drag - ANSWER When, at the rear of the wing, air speeding over the top meets
air moving slower along the bottom creates a vortex. This type of drag is associated with
the aircraft performance. Along with the rise of lift, air speed, and AOA, induced drag
rises with those too.
, When an airplane is exerting greater lift, what can be said of the air pressure of the flow
both above and below its wings? - ANSWER It is lower above the wing and higher below
the wing, producing lift.
Bernoulli's Principle - ANSWER The faster a fluid is moving the lower its pressure. Air
moving over the top of the wing is going faster has lower pressure. Air moving on the
bottom of the wing is moving slower and therefore, it can push harder. Upward push
means LIFT!
Longitudinal Axis (Roll) - ANSWER runs lengthwise from the nose to the tail
Lateral Axis (Pitch) - ANSWER runs wingtip to wingtip
Vertical Axis (Yaw) - ANSWER Perpendicular to the wings running through the centre of
the aircraft
Trim - ANSWER The aircraft's wanted attitude.
Roll - ANSWER Rotation about the longitudinal axis of the aircraft; effected by ailerons,
which are at the rear edge of the wings.
Pitch - ANSWER Lateral angle of climb or descent; affected by elevators, which are on
the back part of the horizontal tail assembly
Yaw- Controlled by the rudder, located in the rear section of the tail assembly;
movement of the rudder causes the nose to move from side to side.
Pressure Altimeter- Located in the cockpit based upon atmospheric pressure.
Automatically calibrated for 29.92 of mercury (Hg). Pilot zeroes the pressure
altitudeindicator after departing an airfieldto ensure the proper pressure altitude of the
aircraft is given for the destinatin airfield.
