Indication on magnetic compass when rolling into standard rate turn to the right from an
easterly heading in the northern hemisphere? ✔Correct Answer-approximate correct heading
if turn is smooth.

Indication of compass as you roll into standard rate turn to the right from a south heading in
northern hemisphere? ✔Correct Answer-Turn to the right but faster than normal

If, while in level flight, it becomes necessary to use an alternate source of static pressure vented
inside the airplane, which of the following should the pilot expect? ✔Correct Answer-the
altimeter will read higher than normal, airspeed greater than normal, vsi momentarily shows a
climb

You check the flight instruments while taxiing and find that the vertical speed indicator (VSI)
indicates a descent of 100 feet per minute. In this case, you ✔Correct Answer-may take off
under ifr and use 100ft descent as the zero indication

the local altimeter setting should be used by all pilots in a particular area, primarily to provide
✔Correct Answer-better vertical separation of aircraft

while flying at flight level 250, atc says the local altimeter setting is 28.92. What pressure
altitude are you flying ✔Correct Answer-25,000ft

en route at flight level 290, your altimeter is set correctly but you fail to reset the local altimeter
of 30.26 during descent. If the field elevation is 134ft and your altimeter is functioning properly
what will it indicate after landing? ✔Correct Answer-206ft below msl

When an altimeter is changed from 30.11" Hg to 29.96" Hg, in which direction will the indicated
altitude change and by what value? ✔Correct Answer-altimeter will indicate 150ft lower

which condition exists during taxi is an indication that the attitude indicator is unreliable
✔Correct Answer-the horizon bar tilts more than 5 degrees while making turns

If a 180 degree steep turn is made to the right and the aircraft is rolled out to straight and level
flight by visual references, the attitude indicator; ✔Correct Answer-may show a slight climb
and turn

during normal operation of a vacuum driven attitude indicator, what indication should you see
when rolling out from a 180 deg skidding turn to straight and level ✔Correct Answer-turn in
opposite direction of skid

,during normal coordinated turns, what error due to precession should you observe when rolling
out to straight and level flight from a 180 deg turn to the right ✔Correct Answer-slight turn to
the left

Errors in both pitch and bank indication on an attitude indicator are usually at a maximum as
the aircraft rolls out of a ✔Correct Answer-180 deg turn

when an aircraft is decelerated, some attitude indicators will precess and incorrectly indicate a
✔Correct Answer-descent

when an aircraft is accelerated, some attitude indicators will incorrectly indicate a ✔Correct
Answer-climb

During normal flight with a vacuum driven attitude indicator, control pressures should not
normally move the horizon bar more than ✔Correct Answer-one-half bar width, with not
more than an additional one-half bar width for normal flight deviations

what indications should you observe on the turn and slip indicator during taxi? ✔Correct
Answer-the ball moves freely opposite the turn, needle deflects in direction of turn

what indication is presented by the miniature aircraft of the turn coordinator ✔Correct
Answer-indirect indication of the bank attitude

The displacement of a turn coordinator during a coordinated turn will ✔Correct Answer-
increase as angle of bank increases

What does the miniature aircraft of the turn coordinator directly display? ✔Correct Answer-
the indicator first shows the rate of banking and, once stabilized, the rate of turn

in a technologically advanced aircraft, the pilot sees the flight instruments on what? ✔Correct
Answer-The PFD

you are flying an aircraft with an electronic flight display and the air data computer fails. What
instrument is affected? ✔Correct Answer-airspeed indicator

During a skidding turn to the right, what is the relationship between the component of lift and
centrifugal force? ✔Correct Answer-centrifugal force is greater than horizontal lift and load
factor is increased

when airspeed is increased in a turn, what must be done to maintain constant altitude?
✔Correct Answer-increase bank or decrease AoA

, If a standard rate turn is maintained, how much time would be required to turn to the left from
a heading of 090° to a heading of 300°? ✔Correct Answer-50 seconds

approximately what percent of the indicated vertical speed should be used to determine the
number of feet to lead the level off from a climb to a specific altitude? ✔Correct Answer-10 %

conditions that determine pitch attitude to maintain level flight are ✔Correct Answer-
airspeed, density, wing design, AoA

as a rule of thumb, attitude corrections of less than 100ft should be corrected by using
✔Correct Answer-less than a full bar width on the attitude indicator.

as a rule of thumb, altitude orrections of less than 100ft should be corrected by using a
✔Correct Answer-half bar width on the attitude indicator.

Approximately what percent of the indicated vertical speed should be used to determine the
number of feet to level off from a climb? ✔Correct Answer-10%

Conditions that determine pitch attitude required to maintain level flight are ✔Correct
Answer-airspeed, air density, wing design, and angle of attack

As a rule of thumb, altitude corrections of less than 100ft should be corrected by using
✔Correct Answer-less than a full bar width on the attitude indicator

As a rule of thumb, altitude corrections of less than 100 ft should be corrected by using a
✔Correct Answer-half bar width on the attitude indicator

To level off at an airspeed higher than the descent speed, the addition of power should be
made, assuming a 500 FPM descent at approximately ✔Correct Answer-100-150ft above
desire altitude

To level off from a descent maintaining the descending airspeed, the pilot should lead the
desired altitude by approximately ✔Correct Answer-50ft

What is the third fundamental skill in attitude instrument flying? ✔Correct Answer-Aircraft
control

What are the three fundamental skills involved in attitude instrument flying? ✔Correct
Answer-Cross check, instrument interpretation, and aircraft control

For maintaining level flight at constant thrust, which instrument would be the least appropriate
for determining the need for a pitch change? ✔Correct Answer-attitude indicator
