Define: Category - correct answer️️a broad classification of aircraft; i.e., airplane, rotorcraft, glider, etc. Define: Class - correct answer️️a classification of aircraft with in a category having similar operating characteristics; i.e., single-engine land, multi-engine land, etc. Define: Type - correct answer️️a specific make and basic model of aircraft including modifications that do not change its handling or flight characteristics; i.e., DC-9, B-737, C-130, etc. What are the requirements to remain current as a private pilot? - correct answer️️a. Within the preceding 24 months, accomplished a flight review given in an aircraft for which that pilot is rated by an authorized instructor and received a logbook endorsement certifying that the person has satisfactorily completed the review. b. To carry passengers, a pilot must have made, within the preceding 90 days have had 3 takeoffs and landings as the sole manipulator of flight controls of an aircraft of the same category and class (if tailwheel, landings must be to a full stop), and if operations are to be conducted during the period beginning 1 hour after sunset and ending 1 hour before sunrise, 3 takeoffs and 3 landings to a full stop during that period in an aircraft of the same category and class To exercise the privileges of a private pilot certificate, what medical certificate is required, and how long is it valid? - correct answer️️Third-class medical certificate; Before 40th birthday: 36th month after the date of the examination, After 40th birthday: the 24th month after the date of the examination What documents are required on board an aircraft prior to flight? - correct answer️️Airworthiness Certificate, Registration Certificate, Owner's manual or operating limitations, and Weight and balance data Who is responsible for ensuring that an aircraft is maintained in an airworthy condition? - correct answer️️The owner or operator of the aircraft After aircraft inspections have been made and defects have been repaired, who is responsible for determining that the aircraft is in an airworthy condition? - correct answer️️The pilot-in-command What records or documents should be checked to determine that the owner or operator of an aircraft has complied with all required inspections and airworthiness directives? - correct answer️️The maintenance records (aircraft and engine logbooks) Can a pilot conduct flight operations in an aircraft with known inoperative equipment? - correct answer️️Yes, under specific conditions. CFR Part 91 describes acceptable methods for the operation of an aircraft with certain inoperative instruments and equipment that are not essential for safe flight - they are: operation of aircraft with a minimum equipment list (MEL) and operation of aircraft without a MEL What are the required maintenance inspections for aircraft? - correct answer️️Annual inspection- within the preceding 12 calendar months 100-hour inspection - if carrying any person (other than crew member_ for hire or giving flight instruction for hire Define "preventative maintenance" - correct answer️️Simple or minor preservation operations and the replacement of small standard parts, not involving complex assemble operations. Typical operations include oil changes, wheel bearing lubrication, hydraulic fluid (brakes, landing gear system) refills. What are "Airworthiness Directives" (ADs)? - correct answer️️An Ad is the medium the FAA uses to notify aircraft owners and other potentially interested persons of unsafe conditions that may exist. ADs are regulatory in nature, and compliance is mandatory. What are the standard temperature and pressure values for sea level? - correct answer️️15 C and 29.92" Hg What are "isobars"? - correct answer️️An isobar is a line on a weather chart which connects areas of equal or constant barometric pressure What does that spacing of isobars mean on a surface weather chart or a constant pressure chart? - correct answer️️The spacing of isobars on these charts defines how steep or shallow a pressure gradient is. When isobars are spaced very close together, a steep pressure gradient exists which indicates higher wind speeds. A shallow pressure gradient usually means wind speeds will be less. What causes the winds aloft to flow parallel to the isobars? - correct answer️️The Coriolis force At what rate does atmospheric pressure decrease with an increase in altitude? - correct answer️️1" Hg per 1,000 feet What does "dew point" mean? - correct answer️️Dew point is the temperature to which a sample of air must be cooled to attain the state of saturation. When temperature and dew point are close together (within 5 degrees), what type of weather is likely? - correct answer️️Visible moisture in the form of clouds, dew, or fog. Also, these are ideal conditions for carburetor icing. What factor primarily determines the type and vertical extent of clouds? - correct answer️️The stability of the atmosphere.
