PRIVATE PILOT FINAL EXAM B EXAM REVIEW
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
◉ Except in Alaska, during what time period should lighted position
lights be displayed on an aircraft?
Answer: Sunset to sunrise.
◉ A slightly high glide slope indication from a precision approach
path indicator is
Answer: three white lights and one red light.
◉ During a night flight, you observe a steady white light and a
flashing red light ahead and at the same altitude. What is the general
direction of movement of the other aircraft?
Answer: The other aircraft is flying away from you.
◉ When approaching taxiway holding lines from the side with the
continuous lines, the pilot
Answer: should not cross the lines without ATC clearance.
◉ (See Figure 64.) Which marking indicates a vehicle lane?
Answer: C.
,◉ (Refer to Figure 64.) Which symbol indicates a taxiway/taxiway
intersection hold position marking?
Answer: E
◉ Large accumulations of carbon monoxide in the human body
result in
Answer: loss of muscular power.
◉ Which wind condition would be most critical when taxiing a
nosewheel equipped high-wing airplane?
Answer: Quartering tailwind.
◉ Which approach and landing objective is assured when the pilot
remains on the proper glidepath of the VASI?
Answer: Safe obstruction clearance in the approach area.
◉ What is the purpose of the rudder on an airplane?
Answer: To control yaw.
◉ During an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will cause
the airplane to
Answer: stall at a higher airspeed.
, ◉ Changes in the center of pressure of a wing affect the aircraft's
Answer: aerodynamic balance and controllability.
◉ The wind condition that requires maximum caution when
avoiding wake turbulence on landing is a
Answer: light, quartering tailwind.
◉ When taking off or landing at an airport where heavy aircraft are
operating, one should be particularly alert to the hazards of wingtip
vortices because this turbulence tends to
Answer: sink into the flightpath of aircraft operating below the
aircraft generating the turbulence.
◉ The angle between the chord line of an airfoil and the relative
wind is known as the angle of
Answer: attack.
◉ What is the relationship of lift, drag, thrust, and weight when the
airplane is in straight-and-level flight?
Answer: Lift equals weight and thrust equals drag.
◉ When departing behind a heavy aircraft, the pilot should avoid
wake turbulence by maneuvering the aircraft
