Private Pilot Stage 3 Exam Questions With Correct Answers

What combination of conditions is most detrimental to takeoff and climb performance? CORRECT ANSWER High temperature, high humidity, and high altitude According to the accompanying chart, pressure altitude of 5,000 feet with a temperature of +40C will result in a density altitude of approximately CORRECT ANSWER 8,900 feet According to the accompanying takeoff distance chart and the following conditions, what is the total distance necessary to clear a 50-foot obstacle? CORRECT ANSWER 1,732 feet Using the listed conditions and the accompanying landing distance chart, determine the distance required to land over a 50-foot barrier CORRECT ANSWER 1,470 feet Use the accompanying maximum rate-of-climb chart and the listed conditions to determine the rate of climb CORRECT ANSWER 765 f.p.m. What is the difference between the range and the endurance of an aircraft? CORRECT ANSWER With a given amount of fuel, range is the distance that the aircraft can fly, and endurance is the amount of time that the aircraft can remain in the air. Center of gravity is defined as the theoretical point CORRECT ANSWER where all of the aircraft's weight is considered to be concentrated One of the items included in an aircraft's basic empty weight is CORRECT ANSWER unusable fuel What is the CG location after the airplane is loaded with full fuel? CORRECT ANSWER 42.66 inches How much fuel can be carried in the aircraft without exceeding a maximum takeoff weight of 2,700 pounds? CORRECT ANSWER 19.6 gallons Using the loading specifications from the previous problem, the total moment is CORRECT ANSWER 113,8976.4 pound-inches Assume an aircraft has a total weight of 2,950 pounds and a total moment of 210,700 pound-inches. If the CG range is from 82.1 to 86.7 inches, what action, if any, should you take before you fly the aircraft? CORRECT ANSWER Move some load aft in the aircraft Based on the following conditions, what is the total moment/1000 pound-inches? CORRECT ANSWER 96.8
