UCT T-1A Systems 3 & 4 Test questions &
correct answers
How do you inhibit the "Glideslope, Glideslope" aural alert? - correct answer
✔✔Tune the NAV #1 radio from the ILS frequency.
What are the normal switch positions for the ELT? - correct answer ✔✔ELT unit
switch OFF and pedestal switch ARMED/RESET.
True or false: The green ELT ON light on the pedestal should normally be
illuminated during flight. - correct answer ✔✔False.
Does TCAS relieve the pilot of the responsibility to see and avoid other aircraft? -
correct answer ✔✔No, while TCAS is a wonderful tool to build SA, the aircrew are
still ultimately responsible for avoiding collisions.
True or false: Ignoring or failing to follow a resolution advisory (RA) could lead to
additional RAs in which alert and visual annunciations may not agree. - correct
answer ✔✔True.
True or false: You can consider information displayed on the radio altimeter to be
accurate at all times, unless a warning flag is in view in the instrument. - correct
answer ✔✔False.
Which TCAS symbol is used to identify an intruder aircraft that has been identified
as a TA? - correct answer ✔✔Yellow circle.
,What are the four TCAS symbols and what do arrows, +, and - mean? - correct
answer ✔✔Cyan open diamond = Traffic that is not a threat.
Cyan solid diamond = Traffic that may become a threat if something changes.
Yellow circle = Traffic advisory, could become a conflict if current flight path is
maintained.
Red square = Resolution Advisory, an immediate threat.
An arrow indicates if traffic is climbing (up) or descending (down) at a rapid rate.
Traffic above your altitude are indicated with a plus and traffic below your altitude
is indicated with a -.
Does the TCAS in the T-1A provide vertical guidance, horizontal guidance, or both
in the event of traffic? - correct answer ✔✔Vertical only.
The radio altimeter provides an indication of AGL height up to ___ ft. - correct
answer ✔✔2,500.
Will the GPWS alert you to landing with the gear retracted? - correct answer
✔✔Yes, passing 200 ft AGL at approach speeds.
True or false: The standby altimeter is accurate at all altitudes and configurations
and no corrections need to be applied. - correct answer ✔✔False.
When are readings from the magnetic compass valid? - correct answer ✔✔Only in
level, unaccelerated flight.
, Where does the standby airspeed indicator use inputs? - correct answer ✔✔From
the copilot's pitot static system.
What setting must the windshield heat be in to ensure accurate magnetic
compass readings? - correct answer ✔✔LOW.
What would cause the aural alert "don't sink, don't sink"? - correct answer
✔✔Excessive altitude loss after takeoff.
What type of traffic generates a Preventative Resolution Advisory? - correct
answer ✔✔A traffic conflict that should be resolved if you do not change present
flightpath.
When and how would you inhibit the "Too Low, Terrain" aural alert from the
GPWS? - correct answer ✔✔When entering a planned 500' low-level, press the
GPWS TAC switch.
The standby attitude indicator is reliable up to ±___° pitch and roll for ____
minutes after power loss. - correct answer ✔✔±6°, 9 mins.
True or false: Pressing either the pilot or copilot EFIS Master Warning Switchlight
to extinguish it, both lights are extinguished. - correct answer ✔✔False.
True or false: The flight time on the digital clock in the T-1A automatically zeros
when power is removed from the aircraft. - correct answer ✔✔False, you must
manually zero it at the start of your flight.
