Private Pilot Stage 1 Exam USU (Jeppesen) Latest Update Graded A Penetration of active warning areas by nonparticipating aircraft should be avoided because of unusual, invisible, hazards such as aerial gunnery What two conditions normally cause an increase in lift Increased angle of attack and increased speed What causes the separation of air over the wing during a stall Angle between chord line and the relative wind is excessive One of the main functions of flaps during approach and landing is to increase the angle of descent without increasing airspeed Whingtip Vortices contribute to the production of induced drag Loading an airplane to the most aft CG will cause the airplane to be less stable at all speeds Dihedral is used to stabilize the airplane about the Longitudinal Axis In what flight condition is torque effect the greatest in a single-engine airplane Low airspeed, high power, high angle of attack. what is the primary force that causes an airplane to turn? Horizontal component of lift an electrical failure (battery and alternator) occurs in flight. In this situation, you would Experience avionic equipment failure if alt. is set to 29.92 instead of 30.00. what will alt. read if the field elev. is 2,000 1920 feet MSL How often should you check the heading indicator and align it with the magnetic compass? every 15 minutes In Northern Hemisphere if aircraft is accelerated or decelerated the mag compass will indicate correctly when on a north or south heading Which control surfaces are usually located on the empennage? Rudder, elevator, stabilator What condition must be present for carburetor icing to occur? High relative humidity The presence of carburetor ice can be verified by applying carburetor heat and noticing a decrease in RPM and then a gradual increase in RPM Detonation occurs in a reciprocating aircraft engine when The unburned charge in cylinders explodes instead of burns One purpose of the dual ignition system on an aircraft engine is to provide for improved engine performance Excessively high engine temperatures will cause loss of power, oil consumption, and engine damage Which instrument will become inoperative in the pitot tube becomes clogged? Airspeed What services do TRACON controllers provide? Traffic advis, safety alerts, and seperation in Class B Responsibility for collision avoidance in an alert area rests with all pilots. Two-way radio communications with Air Traffic Control are required for landings or takeoffs at all towered airports regardless of weather conditions when activated, and emergency locator transmitter (ELT) transmits on 121.5 and 243.0 MHz When you use the words 'PAN-PAN' in a radio message, it indicates you have an urgant situation requiring priority but not urgant assist Information concerning parachute jumping sites may be found in the Airport/Facultiy Directory FAA Advisory Circulars provide what type of information Nonregulatory, but necessary for good operation practices The recommended method of scanning for other aircraft during the day is to use short reg spaced eye movements to search 10 deg viewing area Most practical way to reduce blind spots in aircraft design while climbing or descending is to shallow S-turns when you fly over congested areas, you must maintain an altitude of at least 1,000 feet above highest obst. within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet The purpose of a displaced threshold is to cause aircraft to touch down farther down the runway an airports rotating beacon operated during daylight hours indicates weather at Class D airport is below basic VFR weather mins An on glide slope indication from a tri-color VASI is a green light signal No person may T/O or LND under basic VFR at an airport within Class D airspace unless the ground visibility at that airport is at least 3 miles Two-way radio must be established with ATC prior to entering which class airspace? Class C the min flight vis required for VFR flights above 10,000 ft MSL in controlled airspace is 5 miles Airspace at an airport with a part-time control tower is classified as Class D airspace only when the associated control tower is in operation What are the special VFR weather minimums for flight within Class D airspace? Clear of the clouds with one statute mile visibility On a sectional chart, what does the notation 'NO SVFR' above the airport name indicate No special VFR operations are permitted at anytime A larger letter 'X' placed near the runway threshold indicates the runway is closed.
