When converting from true course to magnetic heading, a pilot should - Answer- add westerly
variation and subtract left wind correction angle.
Which combination of atmospheric conditions will reduce aircraft takeoff and climb performance? -
Answer- high temperature, high relative humidity, and high density altitude.
Under which condition will pressure altitude be equal to true altitude? - Answer- when standard
atmospheric conditions exist.
Which factor would tend to increase the density altitude at a given airport? - Answer- An increase
In ambient temperature.

(Refer to Figures 32 and 33.) What effect does a 35-gallon fuel burn (main tanks) have on the
weight and balance if the airplane weighed 2,890 pounds and the MOM/100 was 2,452 at takeoff?
- Answer- Weight is reduced by 210 pounds and the CG is aft of limits.
(Refer to Figure 60.) How should the 500-pound weight be shifted to balance the plank on the
fulcrum? - Answer- 1 inch to the left.
Which V-speed represents maximum landing gear extended speed? - Answer- VLE.
VNo is defined as the - Answer- Maximum structural cruising speed
Loading an airplane to the most aft CG will cause the airplane to be - Answer- Less stable at all
speeds
Why is frost considered hazardous to flight? - Answer- Frost spoils the smooth flow of air over the
wings, thereby decreasing lifting capability.
The greatest vortex strength occurs when the generating aircraft is - Answer- C heavy, clean, and
slow.
Changes in the center of pressure of a wing affect the aircraft's - Answer- aerodynamic balance
and controllability.
, During flight, when are the indications of a magnetic compass accurate? - Answer- Only in
straight-and-level unaccelerated flight.
If a pilot changes the altimeter setting from 30.11 to 29.96, what is the approximate change in
indication? - Answer- Altimeter will indicate 150 feet lower.
(Refer to Figure 26, area 2.) What is the approximate latitude and longitude of Cooperstown
Airport? - Answer- 47°25 'N - 98°06'W.
(Refer to Figure 27.) An aircraft departs an airport in the mountain standard time zone at 1615
MST for a 2-hour 15-minute flight to an airport located in the Pacific standard time zone. The
estimated time of arrival at the destination airport should be - Answer- 1730 PST.
For VR flight operations above 10,000 feet MSL and more than 1,200 feet
AGL, the minimum horizontal distance from clouds required is - Answer- 1 mile.
(Refer to Figure 25, area 4.) The floor of Class B airspace overlying Hicks Airport (T67) north-
northwest of Fort Worth Meacham Field is - Answer- 4,000 feet MSL.
(Refer to Figure 20 area 4.) What hazards to aircraft may exist in restricted areas such as R-
5302B? - Answer- Unusual, often invisible, hazards such as aerial gunnery or guided missiles.
(Refer to Figure 21, area 3.) What type military flight operations should a pilot expect along IR
644? - Answer- IF training flights above 1,500 feet AGL at speeds in excess of 250 knots.
(Refer to Figure 26, area 5.) The airspace overlying and within 5 miles of Barnes County Airport is
- Answer- Class G airspace from the surface to 700 feet AGL.
(Refer to Figure 22, area 2; and Figure 31.) At Cour d'Alene, which frequency should be used as a
Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF) to self-announce position and intentions? - Answer-
122.8 MHz.
An ATC radar facility issues the following advisory to a pilot during a local flight:
"TRAFFIC 2 O'CLOCK, 5 MILES, NORTHBOUND..."
Where should the pilot look for this traffic? - Answer- • Between directly ahead and 90° to the right.
Which would most likely cause the cylinder head temperature and engine oil temperature gauges
to exceed their normal operating ranges? - Answer- Using fuel that has a lower-than specified fuel
rating.
During the preflight inspection who is responsible for determining the aircraft is safe for flight? -
Answer- The pilot in command.
(Refer to Figure 49.) The arrows that appear on the end of the north/south runway indicate that the
area - Answer- cannot be used for landing, but may be used for taxiing and takeoff.
(Refer to Figure 52.) Traffic patterns in effect at Lincoln Municipal are - Answer- to the left on
Runway 17 and Runway 36: to the right on Runway 18 and Runway 35.
