Jeppesen Private Pilot Stage 1 Questions & Answers Already Passed!!

What action should a Pilot take when operating under VFR in a Military Operations Area (MOA)? - Exercise extreme caution when military activity is being conducted The angle between the chord line of an airfoil and the relative wind is known as the angle of - Attack Floating caused by the phenomenon of Ground Effect will be most realised during an approach to land when at - Less than the Length of the wingspan above the surface One of the main functions of FLAPS during approach and landing is to - Increase the angle of descent without increasing airspeed When taking off or Landing at an airport where heavy aircraft are operating, one should be particularly alert to the hazards of wingtip vortices because this turbulence tends to - sink into the flightpath of aircraft operating below the aircraft generating the turbulence Loading an airplane to the most AFT CG will cause the airplane to be - less stable at all speeds What determines the Longitudinal Stability of an Airplane? - The Location of the CG with respect to the Center of Lift. P-Factor is one of the Forces that causes the airplane to - Yaw to the Left What is the Primary Force that causes the Airplane to turn? - Horizontal Component of Lift What are the characteristics of a Monocoque Airplane structure? - Almost all structural loads are carried by the outer skin of the airplane If it is necessary to set the altimeter from 29.15 to 29.85 what change occurs? - 700-Foot increase in indicated altitudeHow often should you check the heading indicator and align it with the magnetic compass? - Every 15 Minutes In the Northern Hemisphere, If an aircraft is accelerated or decelerated, the magnetic compass will normally indicate - correctly when on a north or south heading To properly purge water from the fuel system of an aircraft equipped with fuel tank sumps and a fuel strainer quick drain, it is necessary to drain fuel from the - Fuel strainer drain and the fuel tank sumps What condition must be present for carburator icing to occur? - High Relative Humidity A power loss occurs when you apply carburator heat because - less dense air is entering the engine Detonation can be described as - Fuel in the cylinders exploding instead of burning smoothly If the engine magneto switch is turned to the "OFF" position, but the engine continues to run, the probable cause is - a broken magneto ground wire Excessive cylinder head and engine oil temperatures can be caused by - using a lower-than-normal fuel grade Which instrument will become inoperative if the pitot tube becomes clogged? - Airspeed What services do TRACON controllers provide? - Traffic Advisories, Safety Alerts, Vectoring, and Separation between all aircraft in Class B Airspace When in radar contact, who is primarily responsible for VFR aircraft separation? - Pilot in command When approaching an airport with an Operating Control Tower you must contact the tower before entering the - Class D AirspaceWhen activated, an emergency locator transmitter (ELT) transmits on - 121.5 and 243.0 MHz If the aircraft's radio fails, what is the recommended procedure when landing at a controlled airport? - Observe the traffic flow, enter the pattern, and look for a light signal from the tower The letters VHF/DF appearing in the Airport/Facility Directory for a certain airport indicate that - The Flight Service Station has equipment with which to determine your direction from the station When departing Portland International Airport to the North, the proper frequency for departure control is - 133.0 Information concerning parachute jumping sites may be found in the - Airport/Facility Directory FAA Advisory Circulars provide what type of information - Nonregulatory, but necessary for good operating practices The recommended method of scanning for other aircraft during the day is to use - a series of short, regularly spaced eye movements to search each 10 degree sector of the viewing area The most practical way to compensate for blind spots in aircraft design while climbing or descending is to make - Shallow S-Turns Except when necessary for takeoff or landing, when you fly over congested areas, you must maintain an altitude of at least 1,000 feet - above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft The recommended entry position to an airport traffic pattern is - to enter 45 degrees at the midpoint of the downwind leg at traffic pattern altitude An airport beacon with two white flashes and one green flash indicates - A Military AirportWhen using two-bar VASI lights, what will you see when you are on the proper glide slope? - Far Bar Red, Near Bar White (Red over White, You're Alright) The numbers 8 and 26 on the approach ends of the runway indicate that the runway is orientated approximately - 080 and 260 magnetic What is the minimum ceiling requirement for VFR operations in the Airspace represented in C? - 1,000 Feet What requirements must be met before you enter the airspace represented in D? - Two-Way Radio Communications
