IR CAAP Exam (300 Questions & Answers)On the taxi check, the magnetic compass should
A. swing opposite to the direction of turn when turning from north.
B. exhibit the same number of degrees of dip as the latitude. C. swing freely and indicate known headings. ✔ Ans - Answer (C) swing freely and indicate known headings.
When taxiing, the magnetic compass should be checked to make sure that the compass card is swinging freely and indicating known headings.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard-rate turn to the left from an east heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on east for a short time, then gradually catch up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
B. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right. ✔ Ans - Answer (B) The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading. There are no turning errors on turns from east or west headings.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from an easterly heading in the Northern Hemisphere? A. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
B. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left.
C. The compass will remain on east for a short time, then gradually catch up
to the magnetic heading of the aircraft. ✔ Ans - Answer (A) The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will normally indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading. Acceleration, not turning, errors are found in east or west headings in the Northern Hemisphere.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from a south heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
A. The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring.
B. The compass will remain on south for a short time, then gradually catch up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left. ✔ Ans - Answer (A) The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring.
In turns from a southerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, the compass leads the turn. That is, it indicates a turn in the proper direction but at a faster rate than is actually occurring.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass when you roll into a standard rate turn to the left from a south heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on south for a short time, then gradually catch up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft. B. The compass will indicate a turn to the left, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right. ✔ Ans - Answer (B) The compass will indicate a turn to the left, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring.
In turns from a southerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, the compass leads the turn. That is, it indicates a turn in the proper direction but at a rate faster than the actual rate.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from a westerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on a westerly heading for a short time, then gradually catch up to the actual heading of the aircraft.
B. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
C. The compass will initially show a turn in the opposite direction, then turn to a northerly indication but lagging behind the actual heading of the aircraft. ✔ Ans - Answer (B) The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading. There are no turning errors on turns from east or west headings.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from a northerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
A. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left. B. The compass will remain on north for a short time, then gradually catch up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
C. The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is actually occurring. ✔ Ans - Answer (A) The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left.
In turns from a northerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, the compass will initially indicate a turn to the opposite direction. Then the compass heading will lag behind the actual heading until the airplane approaches an east or west heading.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the left from a west heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
A. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
B. The compass will remain on west for a short time, then gradually catch up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right. ✔ Ans - Answer (A) The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading. Turning errors appear on turns from north or south headings, not east or west.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the left from a north heading in the Northern Hemisphere?
A. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right.
B. The compass will remain on north for a short time, then gradually catch up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
