What combination of conditions is most detrimental to takeoff and climb performance? High temperature, high humidity, and high altitude According to the accompanying chart, pressure altitude of 5,000 feet with a temperature of +40C will result in a density altitude of approximately 8,900 feet According to the accompanying takeoff distance chart and the following conditions, what is the total distance necessary to clear a 50-foot obstacle? 1,732 feet Using the listed conditions and the accompanying landing distance chart, determine the distance required to land over a 50-foot barrier 1,470 feet Use the accompanying maximum rate-of-climb chart and the listed conditions to determine the rate of climb 765 f.p.m. What is the difference between the range and the endurance of an aircraft? With a given amount of fuel, range is the distance that the aircraft can fly, and endurance is the amount of time that the aircraft can remain in the air. Center of gravity is defined as the theoretical point where all of the aircraft's weight is considered to be concentrated One of the items included in an aircraft's basic empty weight is unusable fuel What is the CG location after the airplane is loaded with full fuel? 42.66 inches How much fuel can be carried in the aircraft without exceeding a maximum takeoff weight of 2,700 pounds? 19.6 gallons Using the loading specifications from the previous problem, the total moment is 113,8976.4 pound-inches Assume an aircraft has a total weight of 2,950 pounds and a total moment of 210,700 pound-inches. If the CG range is from 82.1 to 86.7 inches, what action, if any, should you take before you fly the aircraft? Move some load aft in the aircraft Based on the following conditions, what is the total moment/1000 pound-inches? 96.8 According to the center of gravity moment envelope, the aircraft's CG is within normal category limits but outside utility category limits The time-speed-distance function of your flight computer can be used to solve for groundspeed and fuel consumption If your aircraft's fuel consumption rate is 5.6 g.p.h., how much fuel will it use on a flight of 230 n.m. with an average groundspeed of 93 knots? 13.8 gallons Determine the density altitude using the listed conditions 4097 feet When you are flying an aircraft into a left-quartering headwind, what is the effect on groundspeed and wind correction angle if the wind velocity increases? Groundspeed decreases, and wind correction increases. If you plan to save 30 minutes fuel for reserve, how far can you fly based on the listed conditions? 655 miles Compute the true heading and groundspeed for a cross-country flight based on the listed conditions 185 degrees and 106 knots Determine the true airspeed for the trip 113 knots The compass heading for the trip will be 030 degrees Assuming a constant fuel consumption rate throughout the flight, how much fuel will remain after the pilot lands at the destination? 12.2 gallons
