When the aircraft requires two pilots, and you are qualified for the SIC requirements, and you have all the ratings for the aircraft When can you log Night flights? Between the end of civil twilight, and beginning of morning civil twilight, as published in the American air almanac What are the requirements to be kind as a COMM. Pilot? Biannual, to carry passengers takeoffs and landings within the past 90 days if the flight is at night, they must be done at night 2A., in the same category class, and type What medical certification is required for commercial pilots? What is the that duration? A second class medical is required to exercise commercial pilot privileges. The duration is 12 calendar months Is a commercial pilot required to log all flight time? No, only the ones used to meet requirements for a certificate or currency. Which document is required to be displayed to both passengers and crew? The air worthiness certificate or special flight authorization must be displayed at the cabin or cockpit entrance. How can you tell if your aircraft has a mode C transponder? Reference current weight and balance equipment list Limits for normal, utility category Normal equals +3.8 point eight Gs Utility equals +4.4 Gs Our airplane flight manuals AFM required to be on board all aircraft? Yes, or if applicable, Any combination of approved manual, markings, and placards What are special flight permits, and when are they necessary? How do you obtain? When aircraft does not meet air worthiness requirements, but it's safe for specific flight. Example flying to a base for repairs, delivering aircraft, evacuating aircraft, it can be obtained from the FSDO Common carriage definition Refers to carriage it out person or property as a result of: 1. holding out or A willingness to 2. from place to place 3. for compensation Holding out Implies offering the public the carriage of persons or property for hire by: signs or ads, sales persons or agents, gaining a reputation to serve all even if it is not successful, even if it's certain types of people, it is still common carriage Private carriage Carrying persons or property for a select clientele without holding out, has few select a long-term customers, Number of customers must be small, or it can imply willingness to contract anybody Examples of private carriage Carriage of operators own employees. Carriage of members of club. Carriage where the customer seeks out the operator and enters into a contract. What is the definition of high-performance aircraft? It has an engine with more than 200 hp When can you fly with Inoperative equipment? Either on the Mel or not to required or it is placarded What must be done when a piece of equipment is changed? Change the Weight and balance and equipment list How long does an airworthiness certificate remain valid? As long as the maintenance is performed and the aircraft is registered in the US What are required maintenance on aircraft? What can be substituted? Annual The 100 hour inspection only needs to be done if aircraft is for hire Annual inspection is acceptable as 100 hour inspection also When can an aircraft exceed 100 hours before inspection? facility, an aircraft can fire up to 10 hours past 100 hour limit. The access time is counted as time toward the next 100 hour. What is preventative maintenance? Who can perform it? Like oil change. Wheel bearing lubrication. Hydraulic fluid refill. It can be done by certified pilot with at least a private pilot certificate, and the aircraft is not in use for air carrier operations. What are airworthiness directives? Use by the F AAA to notify aircraft owners of unsafe conditions. They can be emergency in nature or require compliance within a longer period of time How are flight controls operated? Rod or cable system What do the flaps do? Increase lift and drag, permits slower airspeed at steeper angles of dissent, and may shorten take off distances Describe a typical wing flap system The Cessna has a single slot type flap system which extends at 10/20/30 degree intervals. A 15 amp push to reset circuit breaker protects the flap circuit Spoilers The upper area of the wing, which caused the ring to slow down in flight as well as on the ground when lifted up What are some speeds that are not marked on the face of the air speed indicator? Maneuvering speed Va Landing gear operating speed VIo Landing gear extended speed VIe How does the VSI work? There is an aneroid inside a case, both are vented through the static source. But that case has a smaller holes so that it changes slower than Android. As the android expands and contracts, it moves the lovers. What are the hydraulic equipment? Free Re-tractable landing gear. Emergency hand pump extends gear in case of hydraulic failure Hydraulically actually break on each main gear The air/Oil nose gear shock strut What provides power to landing gear? Electrically driven hydraulic Power pack, located behind the firewall between the pilots and copilots rudders How is the gear locked in the down position? Mechanical Down locks How is a landing gear locked in the up position? Positive up pressure is maintained by the hydraulic power Pack about 1000 to 1500 pounds per square inch Is accidental gear retraction prevented on the ground? Pressure on the nosewheel electronically prevents operation of landing gear system. What type of landing gear warning system is used? If the manifold pressure is reduced to less than 12 inches at low altitude, with the master switch on and gear up, there will be a warning sound. What is the time needed for landing gear operation? Five to seven seconds Can the hand operated pump retract landing gear? No What are turbochargers? They compress thin air and provide pressurized air to the engine, AndyAnd a turbine is driven by exhaust gases of the Engine to drive the compressor. cowl flaps Slots located on the engine cowling covering of engine to allow the pilot to control the operating temperature of the engine by regulating the amount of air circulating within the engine compartment When are cowl flaps used? Normally, Cowell flaps are open during starting of engine, taxiing, take off and high-powered climb. They are closed during the sentence, Approaches and engine out practice. Service ceiling Altitude at which the aircraft maximum rate of climb would be no more than 100 ft./m Climb propeller Low pitch Less drag Higher RPM, so more horsepower Increase performance during take off and climb, but decreases during cruise. Variable pitch prop The angle of blades to maintain Constant engine RPM as you climb and descend Detonation Explosion of fuel in cylinder instead of burning smoothly caused by high power settings, hey can lead to failure of piston, cylinder, valves, overheat engine, roughness, or loss of power. Dangers of decompression Hypoxia, being blown out of airplane Sickness the Benz, exposure to wind up last an extreme cold Are there backups to vacuum systems? Some aircraft have electrical vacuum pump backup, and some have it parallel vacuum system Procedure for resetting circuit breaker Allow it to cool for two minutes after it pops out, then reset it. If it pops out again, do not reset again. Induced drag By the production of lift, and decreases with airspeed Absolute ceiling Where climb is no longer possible How to lean mixture? Lean it until power peaks, then slowly continue too lenient until engine runs rough, then enrich for a smooth engine Traffic pattern altitude in class D for large or turbine Howard aircraft 1500 feet When hey Control Tower in class D closes, what happens to the tower limit of controlled airspace? It becomes class E at 700 feet
