PRIVATE PILOT STAGE II ACTUAL EXAM
PAPER 2026 QUESTIONS WITH SOLUTIONS
GRADED A+
●● Aircraft Performance (Section 5 POH, charts. How to calculate TO
and LDG distances, TAS, GPH). Answer:
●● Weight and balance (how to do it without using the computer, empty
paper, read chapter 6). Answer:
●● Know the weight shift formula. Answer:
●● Flight at Various CG Positions (what happen when you have an aft
CG and a forward CG). Answer:
●● How to use the Flight Computer (Wind Correction Angle, Ground
speed, distance, time, fuel consumption). Answer:
●● Pilotage. Answer: Navigation by visual reference to landmarks.
●● Dead Reckoning. Answer: Navigation of an airplane solely by means
of computations based on airspeed, course, heading, wind direction and
speed, groundspeed, and elapsed time.
, ●● Flight Planning. Answer:
●● VOR (theory, orientation, navigation, intercepting, homing,
tracking). Answer:
●● lost procedures. Answer: climb, conserve, communicate, comply,
circle, call ATC, maybe call 121.5, maybe 7700
●● DME. Answer: Distance Measuring Equipment. Equipment (airborne
and ground) used to measure, in nautical miles, the slant range distance
of an aircraft from the DME navigational aid.
●● NDB. Answer: Non-directional Beacon. An L/MF or UHF radio
beacon transmitting non-directional signals whereby the pilot of an
aircraft equipped with direction-finding equipment can determine their
bearing to or from the radio beacon and "home" on or track to or from
the station.
●● GPS. Answer: A system that determines the precise position of
something on Earth through a series of satellites, tracking stations, and
receivers.
●● Vision at night. Answer: Look 5-10 degrees off center
Avoid bright white lights
