ACCURATE ANSWERS
. P-Factor correct answer (Propeller Factor) greater lift/thrust is created by
descending prop blade, causing asymmetric thrust and left turning tendencies
(eliminated on counter-rotating twins)
"V" speeds are defined in correct answer 14 CFR Part 1 Section 1.2 Abbreviations
and Symbols
(True or False) In the Seminole, the autopilot can never be used below 400' AGL.
correct answer False
(True or False) The Cockpit Reference Guide (CRG) for the G1000 must be
immediately available to the pilot when operating the Seminole. correct answer
True
(True or False) The Seminole has a maximum zero fuel weight of 2800 pounds.
correct answer False
(True or False) The Seminole is approved for flight in icing conditions. correct
answer False
14 CFR 23.1545 requires that correct answer the airspeed indicator be marked for
various important speeds and ranges
4 C's for engine failure correct answer Control
Configuration
,Climb
Checklist
Accelerate Go Distance correct answer The distance to accelerate from the
beginning of the the takeoff run to lift off speed, experience an engine failure and
continue to an altitude of 50 feet above the runway
Accelerate Stop Distance correct answer The distance required to accelerate to lift
off speed, recognize an engine has failed, then using full brakes and lift dumping
devices bring the aircraft to a full stop
Accelerated Slipstream correct answer Accelerated air on the side with the
DESCENDING prop blade create greater lift vector (think of picture)
Accelerated Slipstream correct answer thrust created by the operating engine's
descending propeller blade accelerates a greater amount of air rearward
Impacts
- Rudder effectiveness
- Rolling moment (force x distance)
Aircraft Control Ailerons only method correct answer Result: Sideslip towards
operative engine and reduced climb performance
Aircraft Control Wings Level Method correct answer Result: Sideslip with higher
Vmca
,Aircraft Control Zero Sideslip correct answer Rudder and ailerons are used
together
2-3° of bank towards the operative engine
Inclinometer displaced 1/3 to 1/2
Result: zero slid slip with best climb performance or least rate of descent if Vyse is
maintained
Airplane's response to an engine failure is always correct answer Yaw and Roll
An engine failure above V1 should result in correct answer a takeoff continued
An engine failure below V1 should result in correct answer an aborted takeoff
Approach Safety correct answer If time and altitude permit:
Wind direction and velocity
Dimensions and slope of terrain
Obstacles in the final approach patch
, As altitude increases Vmca will ________ while stall speed will _________ correct
answer decreases , remains constant
As bank angle increases vmca will correct answer decrease
As CG is Forward Vmca will correct answer decrease
As density altitude increases (higher) Vmca will correct answer decreases
As directional stability is increased Vmca will correct answer decrease
As GC is Rearward Vmca will correct answer increase
As gross weight increases Vmca will correct answer decrease
As Power increases Vmca will correct answer increases
Attitude and Sink rate Safety correct answer Airspeed = controllability
Bank angles increase stall speed
Back line of CG Chart correct answer pitch stability
Basic Empty Weight correct answer Weight of a standard airplane including
unusable fuel, full operating fluids, full oil and optional equipment
