UPDATED ACTUAL Exam Questions and
CORRECT Answers
True/False. The soft-field takeoff procedure begins during the taxi phase. - CORRECT
ANSWER - True
During a soft-field takeoff, liftoff normally occurs at a speed below the safe climb speed. What
action should you take before starting a climb? - CORRECT ANSWER - Accelerate to Vx
or Vy, and then begin to climb.
What is the correct procedure for the roll-out after a soft-field landing? - CORRECT
ANSWER - Maintain back pressure on the yoke and increase power slightly, if necessary.
True/False. during a soft-field landing, you should lower the nosewheel to the surface as quickly
as possible after touchdown. - CORRECT ANSWER - False
During short-field takeoff practice sessions, it is assumed that you must clear an obstacle which
is how many feet high? - CORRECT ANSWER - 50 ft
True/False. While executing a short-field landing, you should reduce power to idle in the flare
and allow the airplane to touch down in a full stall condition. - CORRECT ANSWER -
True
Is the decent angle for a short-field approach steeper, shallower, or the same as that flown for a
normal approach and landing? - CORRECT ANSWER - Steeper
What is the first thing you should do if you begin to lose altitude during a steep turn? -
CORRECT ANSWER - Slightly decrease the angle of bank first
, Why is the overbanking tendency less apparent in right turns than it is in left turns? - CORRECT
ANSWER - Torque and P-factor tend to roll the aircraft to the left and work against the
overbanking tendency during a right turn.
True/False. The entry speed for a steep turn should be above Va. - CORRECT ANSWER -
False
What is the maximum wind limit for practicing chandelles? - CORRECT ANSWER -
Wind is not a factor when practicing chandelles.
True/False. During the second 90 degree fo the turn, you should always maintain the highest
angle of bank and continue to increase the pitch angle. - CORRECT ANSWER - False
What factor counteracts left-turning tendency in a chandelle to the right? - CORRECT
ANSWER - Aileron drag
What maximum angle of bank should you observe during a chandelle? - CORRECT
ANSWER - 30 degrees
What is the possible cause for reaching the 45 degree point before the maximum pitch angle has
been attained? - CORRECT ANSWER - A possible cause is an airspeed which is too slow
causing the rate of turn to increase at a given bank angle.
At the 90 degree point your airspeed should be - CORRECT ANSWER - 5 Knots to 10
knots above stall speed.
True/False. From the 90 reference point to the 135 degree point, you should increase elevator
back pressure untill level flight is achieved. - CORRECT ANSWER - False
What is the key to keeping both sides of a lazy eight symmetrical? - CORRECT
ANSWER - On of the key factors in making symmetrical turns is proper airspeed control.
