Private Pilot Stage 3 Exam question with
answers
What combination of conditions is most detrimental to takeoff and climb
performance? - -High temperature, high humidity, and high altitude
-According to the accompanying chart, pressure altitude of 5,000 feet with a
temperature of +40C will result in a density altitude of approximately - -8,900 feet
-According to the accompanying takeoff distance chart and the following
conditions, what is the total distance necessary to clear a 50-foot obstacle? - -1,732
feet
-Using the listed conditions and the accompanying landing distance chart,
determine the distance required to land over a 50-foot barrier - -1,470 feet
-Use the accompanying maximum rate-of-climb chart and the listed conditions to
determine the rate of climb - -765 f.p.m.
-What is the difference between the range and the endurance of an aircraft? - -With
a given amount of fuel, range is the distance that the aircraft can fly, and
endurance is the amount of time that the aircraft can remain in the air.
-Center of gravity is defined as the theoretical point - -where all of the aircraft's
weight is considered to be concentrated
-One of the items included in an aircraft's basic empty weight is - -unusable fuel
-What is the CG location after the airplane is loaded with full fuel? - -42.66 inches
-How much fuel can be carried in the aircraft without exceeding a maximum takeoff
weight of 2,700 pounds? - -19.6 gallons
-Using the loading specifications from the previous problem, the total moment is - -
113,8976.4 pound-inches
-Assume an aircraft has a total weight of 2,950 pounds and a total moment of
210,700 pound-inches. If the CG range is from 82.1 to 86.7 inches, what action, if
any, should you take before you fly the aircraft? - -Move some load aft in the aircraft
-Based on the following conditions, what is the total moment/1000 pound-inches? -
-96.8
-According to the center of gravity moment envelope, the aircraft's CG is - -within
normal category limits but outside utility category limits
-The time-speed-distance function of your flight computer can be used to solve for -
-groundspeed and fuel consumption
