ATSC 231 Test 3 Questions and
Answers 100% Pass

3 hazards of turbulence - ✔✔• Loss of Control


• Airframe Damage


• Passenger Comfort/Safety


Which type of aircraft have the most accidents as a result of turbulence? - ✔✔Part 121


Annual turbulence injuries - ✔✔58 injuries


Aircraft Turbulence - ✔✔- Irregular motion of an aircraft in flight, especially when characterized by rapid

up-and-down motion, caused by a rapid variations of atmospheric wind velocities.


Turbulence Meteorology - ✔✔Meteorological Turbulence - Irregular fluctuations occurring in fluid

motions


What factors affect the transition from laminar to turbulent flow - ✔✔- Wind speed


- Surface Roughness

- Eddies or Vortices


Characteristics of waves - ✔✔- Regular oscillation of wind


Characteristics of eddies - ✔✔- Eddies are vortices embedded in the mean wind flow


What scale of turbulence affects aircraft? - ✔✔Microscale


Critical Eddie size for aircraft - ✔✔50 to 1500 ft


What is the relationship between AOA and lift - ✔✔Lift increases until critical AOA is reached which

causes a stall


Load Factor - ✔✔- Ratio of the total air load acting on an aircraft to the gross weight of the aircraft


What affects load factor in turbulence - ✔✔Vertical Acceleration increases it


How does airspeed affect an aircrafts susceptibility to turbulence - ✔✔Faster you are moving the stronger

the load factor


Wing Loading - ✔✔- Ratio of weight of aircraft to wing surface area


What does high wing loading lead to? - ✔✔More protection from turbulence


magnitude of turbulence measured in what - ✔✔G's


Gusts measured in what - ✔✔FPM


Newton's Second Law - ✔✔F=ma


maneuver speed - ✔✔speed above which it is unwise to make full application of any single flight control

as it may generate a force greater than the aircraft's structural limitations


Flight Load factor - ✔✔The highest load factor that can be expected in normal operations


Design Load Factor - ✔✔1.5 greater than Flight Load Factor - Protection against unexpected conditions
