Endeavor Interview UPDATED Exam
Questions and CORRECT Answers
Speed limit below 10,000' MSL - CORRECT ANSWER 250 KIAS
Speed limit at/above 10,000' MSL - CORRECT ANSWER Mach 1
speed limit underneath or in VFR corridor in class B - CORRECT ANSWER 200 KIAS
speed limit at or below 2500' AGL within 4nm of class C and D - CORRECT ANSWER 200
KIAS
What is an ADIZ? - CORRECT ANSWER Air Defense Identification Zone -- airspace that
extends upwards from surface where aircraft control is required in the interest of national
security
Dimensions of Class C - CORRECT ANSWER SFC to 4000' AGL - 5nm
1200' to 4000' AGL - 10nm
Minimum altitude for turbine aircraft to enter class D? - CORRECT ANSWER 1500' above
airport elevation
What is RVR? - CORRECT ANSWER Runway Visual Range. reported when airport has the
sensing equipment and vis is less than 1sm. RVR for instrument runway is 6000' or less
What is RVSM? - CORRECT ANSWER Reduced Vertical Separation Minima. Between FL
290-FL410, reduces min separation from 2000' to 1000'.
- aircraft need specific altitude measurement, alerting, and control systems and pilot needs
special training
, What is a VFR corridor? - CORRECT ANSWER area surrounded by Class B which allows
VFR traffic w/o ATC communication
max speed in Class A? - CORRECT ANSWER technically none, but you can't fly more than
mach 1 over the US
Crew member Oxygen - CORRECT ANSWER above FL 250, 10 min supply for each
occupant.
above FL 350 (for airplanes over 30 seats or greater than 7500 lb payload capacity), one pilot
must always use oxygen unless 1. quick don masks are available 2. below FL 410 and 3. two
pilots at controls
What is V1? - CORRECT ANSWER Takeoff Decision Speed
- last speed to abort takeoff and be able to stop aircraft within available accelerate-stop distance
- after V1, continue the takeoff and treat it as an in-air emergency
What is V2? - CORRECT ANSWER Takeoff Safety Speed
- min speed after liftoff for single engine climb performance that needs to be maintained
- ensures min required climb gradient is met
What is the most dangerous form of precipitation? - CORRECT ANSWER Supercooled
Water Droplets (SLD)
- aka freezing rain
- can cause clear ice
What is the most dangerous form of icing? - CORRECT ANSWER Clear Ice
- can runback and form on trailing edge which is not protected/heated
- heavy, harder to detect
