with passengers or cargo day VFR.
2. Single-engine aeroplanes flown with cargo only night VFR or cargo only IFR
3. Multi-engine SIC of an aeroplane requiring two-crew (type rating) VFR or IFR (The
PIC would do the PPC every time)

requirement for Filing a Flight Plan or Flight Itinerary. - ✔✔1. Journey Log must be
carried anytime the engine will be shut down other than the departure Airport..
,2, Flight Plan or Itinerary for all flights beyond 25 NM radius from the departure
aerodrome.
✔✔For VFR OTT, the minimum weather conditions required at destination must be
forecast to exist. . . . before to . . . . . after the ETA when using a TAF and . . . . . before
to . . . . . after the ETA when using a GFA (if no TAF exists). - ✔✔1 hour, 2 hours, 1
hour, 3 hours
✔✔Flight Crew members for an air taxi Services must make _____ takeoffs and
landings in _________ ___________ - ✔✔3 90 days
✔✔An air taxi operator must conduct emergency training procedures... - ✔✔initially and
annually.
✔✔You're flying over a mountain range at 11,500 (Cabin Pressure Altitude) ASL. It will
take 45 minutes. How long do you need to be on Oxygen? - ✔✔45 Minutes (The entire
time you will be above 10,000')
✔✔What is the Mnemonic for Required equipment for Day VFR? - ✔✔Tomato Flames
✔✔Describe the Oxygen requirements for unpressurized Aircraft - ✔✔From above
10,000 to 13,000 Cabin Pressure ASL Oxygen is required for all crew and 10% of Pax
for the entire flight at this altitude if it exceeds 30 minutes.
Above 13,000 Oxygen is required for all souls.
✔✔What are the requirements for an aerial work service or an air taxi service carrying
an external load such as a banner, mounted photography equipment, or a canoe? -
✔✔It must be authorized in a supplemental type certificate or in an airworthiness
approval.
✔✔While operating in an air taxi Service at night, what is the minimum obstacle
clearance? - ✔✔1,000 feet above any obstacle within a 3 mile Radius
✔✔Can an Air Taxi Service operate VFR OTT? - ✔✔Only if it is specifically authorized
in the AOC.
✔✔Describe Detonation - ✔✔Detonation is the abrupt combustion or explosion of the
fuel charge inside the cylinder. This occurs when too low of an octane is used or
excessive.
✔✔Describe Pre-ignition - ✔✔Pre-Ignition is defined as combustion that begins before it
is intended to, before the regular timed spark. Pre-Ignition can occur alone or as a result
of detonation. Hot spots from detonation, improper heat range spark plugs and glowing
carbon deposits from lean mixtures are common causes of pre-ignition.
, ✔✔With respect to carburetor icing when should partial heat be used? - ✔✔Only when
the Aircraft has a Carb Air Temp Gauge.
✔✔Low Viscosity is like __________ whereas high Viscosity is like _________. -
✔✔Low Viscosity is like water whereas high Viscosity is like Molasses.
✔✔If you use too low of a viscosity oil in your engine you will get what type of oil
pressure reading? - ✔✔Low Oil Pressure
✔✔If you use too high of a viscosity oil in your engine you will get what type of oil
pressure reading? - ✔✔High oil pressure
✔✔Centrifugal force which acts towards the outside or inside of the turn? - ✔✔Outside
✔✔Centripetal force which acts towards the outside or inside of the turn? - ✔✔Inside
✔✔At what bank angle is the load factor doubled and what G would this be? - ✔✔60
degrees and 2 Gs
✔✔If a POH is not available what is a good rule of thumb for determining the max
crosswind of an AC? - ✔✔20% of stall speed.
✔✔What are the uses of wing fences and winglets? - ✔✔To Less vortices and reducing
induced drag
✔✔Describe the differences between parasite drag and induced drag? - ✔✔Parasite
drag is caused by everything but the lift created by the wings (skin, Antennas, struts,
wheels, etc.) and induced drag is the by-product of lift being created.
✔✔When is more Thrust Produced on the ground stationary or immediately at rotation?
Why? - ✔✔on the Ground stationary. This is because before the Aircraft start to move
there is no drag being created.
✔✔Describe what happens to the ASI when the Pitot tube opening and drain hole are
blocke but the static port remains open? - ✔✔The Ram Pressure gets trapped so ASI
will freeze. However, if you climb the air will get thinner and your ASI will increase. The
opposite happens if you descend.
✔✔Describe what happens if both the Pitot Tube (All holes) and the Static Port gets
blocked with Ice - ✔✔Everything will freeze
✔✔What does WAM mean? - ✔✔Weight X Arm = Moment
