Endeavor Air Interview Gouge UPDATED
ACTUAL Exam Questions and CORRECT
Answers
What is viscous hydroplaning? - CORRECT ANSWER Associated with thin film of water
and relatively low tire speed. Anything more than gentle braking could lock the wheels.
What is maximum speed in class Charlie airspace within 4 nm from an airport? - CORRECT
ANSWER 200 knots
What is the cross in the circle symbol represent in the airport plan view? - CORRECT
ANSWER Airport Reference Point (ARP)
An airport reference point is the centre point of an airport, located at the geometric centre of all
the usable runways. The ARP is computed as a weighted average of the end of runway
coordinates.
At what altitudes and duration must crew-members and passengers be supplied with
supplemental oxygen? - CORRECT ANSWER Above 12,500 ft thru 14,000 ft for more than
30 minutes - Pilots must use oxygen.
Above 14,000 ft - Pilots must use oxygen at all times.
Above 15,000 ft - each occupant must be provided with supplemental oxygen for the entire time.
What is your clearance limit when cleared for the approach and then you lose comms? -
CORRECT ANSWER When the clearance limit is a fix from which an approach begins,
commence descent or descent and approach as close as possible to the estimated time of arrival
as calculated from the filed or amended (with ATC) estimated time en route.
The maximum intensity and/or development of a thunderstorm is during the Mature stage? -
CORRECT ANSWER When precipitation (rain) begins to fall.
, When do you need an alternate airport? - CORRECT ANSWER 123 Rule: One hour before,
to one hour after your ETA, 2000 feet AGL, (or, 1500 above the HAT, whichever is higher,) and
3 miles visibility, (or 2 miles above the straight in minimums, whichever is greater).
What is Mach tuck? - CORRECT ANSWER Is the nose down pitching moment an aircraft
experiences as it passes it's critical Mach number
What is the most dangerous type of precipitation? - CORRECT ANSWER Supercooled Water
Droplets - Freezing Rain (Clear Ice)
What is the airway width communication range guaranteed by MOCA? - CORRECT
ANSWER 4 NM either side of the airway
[MOCA only guarantees minimum obstacle clearance, there is no guaranteed communication.]
Define V1 - CORRECT ANSWER The speed that splits emergency procedures into two parts:
Before V1- abort takeoff, After V1- continue takeoff
What is CRM? - CORRECT ANSWER Using the skills, judgments and strengths off all cabin
and cockpit personnel in normal, high stress and emergency situations.
What is coffin corner? - CORRECT ANSWER Coffin Corner is the edge of an aircraft's high
altitude operating envelope - Marked by the speed margin between the High Speed Buffet (Mach
Tuck) and Low Speed Buffet (Stall). At very high altitudes this difference may be just a few
knots. A small increase in back angle or turbulence could induce a dangerous stall that may not
be recoverable.
When is the ILS Critical area is in effect ? - CORRECT ANSWER When weather conditions
are below 800 ft ceiling and/or visibility below 2 miles visibility - Taxiing aircraft (or vehicles)
are not authorized past the Localizer/Glide Slope/ILS Critical Area signs when an aircraft is
between the ILS final approach fix and the airport (due to possible signal distortion).
Runway edge lights are what color (end of runway)? - CORRECT ANSWER Runway edge
lights are white, except on instrument runways where amber replaces white on the last 2000ft or
