ATPL P.O.F Chapter 8: High Lift Devices 1. With the flaps lowered, the stalling speed will: - correct answers b. decrease. 2. When flaps are lowered the stalling angle of attack of the wing: - correct answers c. decreases, but CLMAX increases. 3. With full flap, the maximum lift/drag ratio: - correct answers b. decreases and the stalling speed decreases. 4. When a leading edge slot is opened, the stalling speed will: - correct answers b. decrease. 5. Lowering the flaps during a landing approach: - correct answers a. increases the angle of descent without increasing the airspeed. 6. Lowering flaps sometimes produces a pitch moment change due to: - correct answers b. movement of the centre of pressure. 7. Which type of flap would give the greatest change in pitching moment? - correct answers c.Fowler 8. A split flap is: - correct answers d. a flap where the upper surface contour of the wing trailing edge is fixed and only the lower surface contour is altered when the flaps are lowered. 9. If the flaps are lowered in flight, with the airspeed kept constant, to maintain level flight the angle of attack: - correct answers a. must be reduced. 10. If flaps are lowered during the take off run: - correct answers b. the lift would increase when the flaps are lowered. 11. When flaps are lowered the spanwise flow on the upper surface of the wing: - correct answers c. increases towards the root. 12. If a landing is to be made without flaps, the landing speed must be: - correct answers b. increased. 13. With reference to Annex A , the type of flap illustrated is a: - correct answers d. slotted Fowler flap. 14. With reference to Annex B , the type of flap illustrated is a: - correct answers d. variable camber flap.
