what change occurs to the fuel/air mixture when applying carb heat?


Give this one a try later!


drop in RPM because its hotter air so its less dense --> less air for same
amount of fuel




ailerons:

,Give this one a try later!


controls roll




VOR:


Give this one a try later!


VORs are VHF radio stations that project radials in all directions from the
station




what is the function of the manual primer?


Give this one a try later!


injects fuel directly into the cylinders to provide assistance in starting the
engine




ADF:


Give this one a try later!


automatic direction finder




Bernoulli's principle:

,Give this one a try later!


pressure of a fluid decreases at points where the speed of the fluid
increases --- w/ airflow; *airfoil of an aircraft is designed to increase the
velocity of the airflow above its surface, thereby decreasing pressure
above the airfoil




constant pressure analysis chart:


Give this one a try later!


upper air weather map, pilot can appx. the observed air temp., wind, and
temp./dew spread along a proposed route




complex airplane


Give this one a try later!


retractible gear, flaps, variable prop




torque effect of the prop slipstream


Give this one a try later!


slipstream strikes the vertical tail surface on the left side pushing the tail to

, what are the four main controls on an aircraft?


Give this one a try later!


elevators, ailerons, rudder, trim tabs




LIFR


Give this one a try later!


low IFR; ceiling less than 500 ft and/or vis less than 1 mile




trough:


Give this one a try later!


tough line; elongated area of relatively low atmospheric pressure. Low
pressure and bad weather




wind shear:


Give this one a try later!


the rate of change of wind velocity (direction or speed) per unit distance
conventionally expressed as vertical or horizontal
