Exam Questions With 100% Correct
Answers
Which is the correct symbol for the stalling speed or the minimum 'steady flight speed' in a
specified configuration? - answer✔VS1
Which is the correct symbol for the stalling speed or the minimum steady flight speed at which
the airplane is controllable? - answer✔VS
14 CFR part 1 defines VF as - answer✔design flap speed
14 CFR part 1 defines VLE as - answer✔Maximum landing gear extended speed
14 CFR part 1 defines VNE as - answer✔Never exceed speed
14 CFR part 1 defines VY as - answer✔Speed for best rate of climb
If an airplane category is listed as utility, it would mean that this airplane could be operated in
which of the following maneuvers? - answer✔Limited aerobatics, including spins (if approved)
`Which is true with respect to operating limitations of a 'restricted' category airplane? -
answer✔No person may operate a 'restricted' category airplane carrying passengers or property
for compensation or hire.
Which is true with respect to operating limitations of a 'primary' category airplane? - answer✔No
person may operate a 'primary' category airplane carrying passengers or property for
compensation or hire
The carriage of passengers for hire by a commercial pilot is - answer✔not authorized in a
"limited" category aircraft
No person may operate an aircraft that has an experimental airworthiness certificate -
answer✔when carrying persons or property for hire
The ratio between the total air load imposed on the wing and the gross weight of an aircraft in
flight is known as - answer✔load factor and directly affects stall speed
Load factor is the lift generated by the wings of an aircraft at any given time - answer✔divided
by the total weight of the aircraft
For a given angle of bank, in any airplane, the load factor imposed in a coordinated constant-
altitude turn - answer✔is constant and the stall speed increases
Airplane wing loading during a level coordinated turn in smooth air depends on - answer✔angle
of bank
In a rapid recovery from a dive, the effects of load factor would cause the stall speed to -
answer✔increase
If an aircraft with a gross weight of 2,000 pounds was subjected to a 60 degree constant-altitude
bank, the total load would be - answer✔4,000 pounds
While maintaining a constant angle of bank and altitude in a coordinated turn, an increase in
airspeed will - answer✔decrease the rate of turn resulting in no change in load factor
Lift on a wing is most properly defined as the - answer✔force acting perpendicular to the relative
wind.
You are making a level turn at a constant bank angle. If you vary the rate of turn, the load factor
will - answer✔remain constant
The need to slow an aircraft below VA is brought about by the following weather phenomenon -
answer✔Turbulence which causes an increase in stall speed
In theory, if the airspeed of an airplane is doubled while in level flight, parasite drag will become
- answer✔4 times greater
As airspeed decreases in level flight below that speed for maximum lift/drag ratio, total drag of
an airplane - answer✔increases because of increased induced drag
If the airspeed is increased from 90 knots to 135 knots during a level 60° banked turn, the load
factor will - answer✔remain the same but the radius of the turn will increase
Baggage weighing 90 pounds is placed in a normal category airplane's baggage compartment
which is placarded at 100 pounds. If this airplane is subjected to a positive load factor of 3.5 Gs,
the total load of the baggage would be - answer✔315 pounds and would not be excessive
