JEPPESEN PRE-SOLO STUDY GUIDE 2026
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GRADED A+
◉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
◉During engine run up, you cause rocks, debris and propeller blast
to be directed toward another aircraft or person. Could this be
considered careless or reckless operation of an aircraft? Why or why
not?(91.13) Answer: This is reckless and carless, could be prevented
by having prop blast go in another direction
◉What altitudes should you use when operation VFR in level
cruising flight at more than 3000 ft AGL and what determines those
, altitudes? (91.159) Answer: Course of 180-359 even thousands
+500
Course of 0-179 odd thousands +500
◉List the minimum equipment and instruments that must be
working properly in your aircraft for day VFR flight. Answer: 1.)
Airspeed (2.) Altimeter (3.) Compass (4.) tachometer (5.) fuel gauge
(6.) Oil temp and pressure (7.)Anti-Collision light (8.) ELT (9.) seat
belts
◉What is the emergency frequency?(TOMATO/FLAMES) Answer:
121.50
◉Vso Answer: Stall speed with flaps (49)
◉Vs Answer: Stall speed without flaps (56)
◉Vx Answer: Best angle of climb (52)
◉Vfe Answer: Flaps extend speed (100)
◉Vy Answer: Best rate of climb (72)
