What types of fuselage are there? - (answer)Monocoque: has stressed skin
Semi-Monocoque: Has stringers for structural support
What is an empennage and what are its components - (answer)The rear end of a plane.
Consists of Vertical Stabilizer, Horizontal Stabilizer, Rudder, Elevators, and Trim tabs
Flap Designs - (answer)• Basic Flap• Split Flap• Slotted Flap• Fowler Flap• Slotted Fowler Flap
What is the FARs? - (answer)The Federal Aviation Regulations provide rules which apply to all
areas of aviation, including flight operations, the construction of aircraft, and the training
requirements which must be met to obtain pilot certificates and ratings
What is the Pilots Operational Handbook? - (answer)Most of the pertinent information about a
particular make and model of airplane can be found in the pilot's operating handbook (POH).
,What is the Airplane Flight Manual? - (answer)assigned to the individual airplane and can be
accessed by the pilot during all flight operations. To satisfy the regulatory requirement, the POH
for most of these aircraft is also designated as the AFM.
What is preignition? - (answer)fuel/air mix ignites too early, caused by hot spots or damage in
the cylinder, carbon on spark plugs. Preignition and detonation may occur simultaneously. Since
both are likely to cause engine roughness and high engine temperatures, you may find it difficult
to distinguish between the two. If problems occur, you should attempt to lower the cylinder
temperature
by retarding the throttle, enriching the fuel Preignition in the uncontrolled combustion mixture,
and/or lowering the nose attitude.
What is detonation? - (answer)Detonation is an uncontrolled, explosive ignition of the fuel/air
mixture within the cylinder's combustion chamber
If not corrected leads to failure of the piston, cylinder, or values and also cause engine
overheating, roughness, or loss of power. Preignition and detonation may occur simultaneously.

, How can you tell if your alternator is failing? - (answer)When the pointer of the ammeter on the
left is on the plus side, it shows the charging rate of the battery. A minus indication means more
current is being drawn from the battery than is being replaced.
What is ISA? - (answer)International Standard Atmosphere
15ºC at SL (-2ºC per 1,000')
Standard sea level pressure: 29.92 InHq and 1013.25 mB
What are the symptoms of a pitot and drain blockage? - (answer)• Arispeed acts like altimeter•
At given Altitude: airspeed indications will not change• Climbs: airspeed will increase• descents:
airspeed will decrease• Result of change in differential pressure locked inside pitot tube
What are the symptoms of a drain blockage only? - (answer)• Only airspeed effected• Low or no
airspeed indication
What are the Arcs on an airspeed indicator - (answer)• White Arc - Flap operating range• Green
arc - Normal cruise range• Yellow arc - Cruise ranges smooth air
Airspeed indicator markings - (answer)• Vne -Not exceed• Vno - Max structural cruise• Vso -
Stall dirty (power off)• Vs1 - Stall clean (power off)• Vfe - Max speed flap extended• White Arc
