ATPL questionsWhat are the forces acting on an aircraft in flight? - correct answers Drag. Thrust. Lift and Weight What is direct lift control? - correct answers The elevator / stabilizer provides the direct lift control. What are high lift devices? - correct answers Trailing edge flaps. Leading edge flaps. Slots Define the two major types or Drag. - correct answers Profile and induced drag which equals total drag What are high drag devices? - correct answers Trailing edge flaps, spoilers, landing gear, revere thrust, braking parachute. How do you prevent span-vise airflow on a wing especially swept wing? - correct answers Fences, vortex generators What is the purpose vortex generators and fences? - correct answers To reduce spanwise airflow and thereby reduce its effects What are winglets and how do they work? - correct answers Winglets are aerodynamically efficient surfaces located at the wing tips. They are designed to reduce induced drag. They dispense the spanwise airflow from the upper and lower surfaces at different points. How does a forward center of gravity affect the stall speed? - correct answers A center of gravity forward of the center of pressure will cause a higher stall speed What advantages does an aircraft gain from a swept swing? - correct answers High mach cruise speeds, stability in turbulence.
