requires a life raft when more than.... - ✔✔200 NM or 60 minutes of flight at planned
cruising speed, whichever distance is the lesser from shore
✔✔Life rafts are required in single-engine or multi-engine aeroplane unable to maintain
level flight with an engine failed if - ✔✔the flight will be conducted at more than 100 NM
from shore or the distance covered in 30 minutes, whichever distance is the lesser.
✔✔What are the minimum equipment that must be on board power driven AC (6 items).
- ✔✔1. Checklist
2. Charts
3. Fire Extinguisher
4. Timepiece
5. Flashlight (readily available for each crew) night only
6. First Aid Kit
✔✔If you do not include a specific search and rescue time, how soon must you close a
flight plan? - ✔✔As soon a practical but no later than 1 hour after your last reported ETA
for the destination.
✔✔On the CPAER or any Transport Canada Exam it is best to select the
A. Correct Answer
b. The Answer that is most Correct? - ✔✔The Answer that is Most Correct. TC will often
give you two answers that both VERY Correct. However, the one that seems most
correct should be selected.
, ✔✔What does 122.1R mean on VNC above a VOR? - ✔✔It means that the FSS
associated with that VOR can only Receive transmission on 122.1 and you will have to
listen on the VOR frequency.
✔✔In Addition to day VFR, what Equipment (other than engine instruments) are
required for VFR OTT? - ✔✔1. Heading Indicator
2. attitude Indicator
3. Turn Coordinator
4. Two way radio
5. Adequate NAV Systems
6. Pitot-static System Icing Protection
Note: VSI is not required.
✔✔When performing the weight shift formula how you determine the "D" distance? -
✔✔Determine the total distance between the Forward Spar and Aft Spar for the section
of the AC in which you are shifting the weight.
✔✔Decode the following segment of a METAR:
R27/1000VP6000FT/U - ✔✔Runway 27 Visual Range 1000 to greater than 6000FT
upward

✔✔What is the minimum altitude within a Control Zone? - ✔✔500 AGL or 1,000' above
the highest obstacle in a built up area.
✔✔Given two aircraft are at the same angle of bank, the Faster aircraft will have a
_____________ rate of Turn and a ____________ Radius? - ✔✔Slower Rate of Turn
Larger Radius
✔✔What is the difference between Lower Air Density and a lower density altitude? -
✔✔A lower air density means the air is less dense (e.g: high altitude).
A lower density altitude means the air is more dense.
✔✔What are characteristics of a more rearward CG? - ✔✔1. Less Stable
2. Fly Faster due to less drag from less tail pressure
3. Require less trim
✔✔What are characteristics of a more forward CG? - ✔✔1. Higher stall speed
2. More nose up attitude
3. More stable
4. Flight slightly slower
