PAPER 2026 QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
GRADED A+
◉If your aircraft has an operating mode c transponder, when is it
required to be turned on?(91) Answer: Within class A, Class B, and
class C air space, within 30 miles of class B airport above class B and
C airspace, up to 10,000 feet and all airspace above 10,000, and all
other controlled airspace
◉Except when necessary for takeoffs and landings, what are the
minimum safe altitudes when flying over congested and other than
congested areas?(91.119) Answer: Congested- 1000 feet above
highest obstacle within 2000ft
Other than- 500 feet above the surface
◉List at least three sources for local altimeter setting at an airport
and another alternative if none is available? (AIM) Answer: 1.) AWOS
2.) METAR- once an hour report in text form
3.) Call flight service station or set altimeter to field elevation prior
to take off
, ◉When practicing steep turns, stalls and maneuvering during slow
flight, the entry altitude must allow a recovery to be complete no
lower than how many feet AGL? Answer: 1500 FT
◉When is a go around appropriate?(AFH chp.8) Answer: Bad
approach, another aircraft on runway, wind shear, wake turbulence,
mechanical failure, and unstabilized approach, or any other time
successful landing is on doubt
◉Discuss the steps in the go around process(Cessna 150 manual)
Answer: Wing flap setting should be reduced to 20 immediately after
full power is applied. After reaching safe airspeed, flaps should be
slowly retracted to full up position
◉What general steps should you follow after an engine failure in
flight? Answer: Pitch for best glide (65), pick best spot you intend to
make an emergency landing on, follow checklist for engine restart
(check fuel on, mixture full, carb heat on, full throttle, key is on both,
master stitch)
◉During flight, you begin to see a gradual decrease in power. What
is a likely cause and what should be done to remedy the situation?
(AFH chp. 16) Answer: Cause is probably carb ice build up, to correct
this add carb heat until RPM is restored. Also increase power
