,What is one purpose of wing flaps? To enable the pilot to make steeper approaches to a landing without increasing the
airspeed



One of the main functions of flaps during approach and Increase the angle of descent without increasing the airspeed
landing is to...



What is the purpose of the rudder on an airplane? To control yaw




Which is not a primary flight control surface? A. Flaps
A. Flaps
B. Stabilator
C Ailerons


The elevator controls movement around which axis? Lateral




Which statement is true concerning primary flight controls? A. The effectiveness of each control surface increases with speed because there is
A. The effectiveness of each control surface increases with more airflow over them
speed because there is more airflow over them.
B. Only when all three primary flight controls move in
sequence do the airflow and pressure distribution change
over and around the airfoil.
C. Primary flight controls include ailerons, rudder, elevator,
and trim systems.


Which of the following is true concerning flaps? B. Flaps allow an increase in the angle of descent without increasing airspeed
A. Flaps are attached to the leading edge of the wing and
are used to increase wing lift.
B. Flaps allow an increase in the angle of descent without
increasing airspeed.
C. Flaps are high drag devices deployed from the wings to
reduce lift.


Which device is a secondary flight control? A. Spoilers
A. Spoilers
B. Ailerons
C. Stabilators


Trim systems are designed to do what? They relieve the pilot of the need to maintain constant back pressure on the flight
controls



The four forces acting on an airplane in flight are: Lift, Weight, Thrust, and Drag




When are the four forces that act on an airplane in During unaccelerated flight
equilibrium?



What is the relationship of lift, drag, thrust, and weight Lift equals weight
when the airplane is in straight-and-level flight? Thrust equals drag



Which statement relates to Bernoulli's principle? Air traveling faster over the curve upper surface of an airfoil causes lower pressure
on the top surface

,The term "angle of attack" is defined as the angle... Between the wing chord line and the relative wind




Angle of attack is defined as the chord line of an airfoil and Direction of the relative wind
the...



The angle of attack at which an airplane wing stalls will... Remain the same regardless of gross weight




As altitude increases, the indicated airspeed at which a Remain the same regardless of altitude
given airplane stalls in a particular configuration will...



In what flight condition must an aircraft be placed in order Stalled
to spin?



During a spin to the left, which wing(s) is/are stalled? Both wings are stalled




How will frost on the wings of an airplane affect takeoff Frost will disrupt the smooth flow of air over the wing, adversely affecting its lifting
performance? capability



Why is frost considered hazardous to flight? Frost spoils the smooth flow of air over the wings, thereby decreasing lifting
capability



How does frost affect the lifting surfaces of an airplane on Frost my prevent the airplane from becoming airborne at normal takeoff speed
takeoff?



What is ground effect? The result of inference of the surface of the earth with the airflow patterns about an
airplane



Floating caused by the phenomenon of ground effect will Less than the length of the wingspan above the surface
be most realized during an approach to land when at...



What must a pilot be aware of as a result of ground effect? Induced drag decreases; therefore, any excess speed at the point of flare may
cause considerable floating



Ground effect is most likely to result in which problem? Becoming airborne before reaching recommended takeoff speed




What force makes an airplane turn? The horizontal component of lift




An airplane said to be inherently stable will... Require less effort to control

, What determines the longitudinal stability of an airplane? The location of the CG with respect to the center of lift




Changes in the center of pressure of a wing affect the Aerodynamic balance and controllability
aircraft's...



An airplane has been loaded in such a manner that the CG Difficulty in recovering from a stalled condition
is located aft of the aft CG limit. One undesirable flight
characteristic a pilot might experience with this airplane
would be...


What causes an airplane (except a T-tail) to pitch The downwash on the elevators from the propeller slipstream is reduced and the
nosedown when power is reduced and controls are not elevator effectiveness is reduced
adjusted?


Loading an airplane to the most aft CG will cause the Less stable at all speeds
airplane to be...



In what flight condition is torque effect the greatest in a Low airspeed, high power, high angle of attack
single-engine airplane?



The left turning tendency of an airplane caused by P-factor Propeller blade descending on the right, producing more thrust than the ascending
is the result of the... blade on the left



When does P-factor cause the airplane to yaw to the left? When at high angles of attack




The amount of excess load that can be imposed on the Speed of the airplane
wing of an airplane depends upon the...



Which basic flight maneuver increases the load factor on Turns
an airplane as compared to straight-and-level flight?



During an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will Stall at a higher airspeed
cause the aircraft to...



In the Northern Hemisphere, a magnetic compass will An aircraft is accelerated while on an east—west heading
normally indicate a turn toward the north if...



During flight, when are the indications of a magnetic Only in straight-and-level, unaccelerated flight
compass accurate?



Deviation in a magnetic compass is caused by the... Magnetic fields within the aircraft distorting the lines of magnetic force




In the Northern Hemisphere, if an aircraft is accelerated or Correctly when on a north or south heading
