DHL Interview ATPL Questions UPDATED
Study Guide QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
- What is the VOR change over distance? - CORRECT ANSWERS
60NM
What is the minimum distance between parallel runways? -
CORRECT ANSWERS 915m
what the key points of using Mode 2 for parallel runways? -
CORRECT ANSWERS Only straight in approaches allowed
interception angle of no more that 30 degrees
must be straight and level 1NM for localiser
must be straight and level 2NM for Glideslope
Minimum separation of 3NM on same Loc
Min separation of 2 NM on adjacent Loc
Missed approach tracks diverge by at least 30 degree
what is the minimum time a flight plan must be filed before departure
- CORRECT ANSWERS 60 minutes
how does a pilot create a slip or a skid and how it is indicated on the
turn co-ordinator? - CORRECT ANSWERS Slip - opposite
rudder to direction of turn = ball will be at the same side of the turn
,Skid - too much rudder in the direction of the turn = ball will be on
the opposite side to the turn
what time must ATC clocks be within? - CORRECT ANSWERS
30 seconds
what are the Airspace separations rules for Class A - CORRECT
ANSWERS IFR Only
What are the Airspace separation rules for Class B - CORRECT
ANSWERS IFR and VFR seperated
What are the Airspace separation rules for Class C - CORRECT
ANSWERS IFR separated from IFR
IFR Separated from VFR
VFR Info about VFR
Speed limited below FL100 250kts
IFR ( speed limit only on ATC instruction)
What are the Airspace separation rules for Class D - CORRECT
ANSWERS IFR Separated from VFR
IFR Info about VFR
VFR Info about VFR
Speed limit below FL100 250kts
,what its the difference between class D and Class E airspace for VFR
- CORRECT ANSWERS No ATC required
No SVFR
What is Load Shedding - CORRECT ANSWERS Reducing
electrical load on the system by turning of unnecessary electrical
components
how would an artificial feel unit be connected? - CORRECT
ANSWERS In Parallel
otherwise if it failed it would stop the system
what are booster pumps - CORRECT ANSWERS low pressure
centrifugal boots that supply fuel to the engines.
why are booster pumps important? - CORRECT ANSWERS
they prevent cavitation of the engine driven pumps at high
altitude.
what is the purpose of baffle valves - CORRECT ANSWERS
to prevent fuel flowing the the wing tips to keep it in the centre
near the pumps
what is a feeder box - CORRECT ANSWERS a box arounds
the booster pumps that keeps the pumps submerged in fuel to prevent
cavitation
, how do you switch off the magneto - CORRECT ANSWERS
ground the primary circuit
how is the twin jet fuelled - CORRECT ANSWERS by fuel
being pumped from the fuel truck
what type of fire extinguisher do you use on propane fire - CORRECT
ANSWERS foam
what is the difference between IAS and CAS (calibrated Airspeed) -
CORRECT ANSWERS corrected for instrument positional
errors
what is the difference between CAS and TAS (true Airspeed) -
CORRECT ANSWERS Corrected for changes in air Density
when is ground effect felt? - CORRECT ANSWERS half the
wingspan from the ground
what is interference drag? - CORRECT ANSWERS Drag
caused by interaction of boundary layers at major aircraft components
what are high aspect ratio wings - CORRECT ANSWERS long
thin wings
what are low aspect ratio wings - CORRECT ANSWERS short
fat ones
