Gleim Private Pilot FAA Knowledge Test Guide Gleim Private Pilot FAA Knowledge Test Guide 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 landing is to: Increase the angle of descent without increasing the airspeed. What is the purpose of the rudder on an airplane? To control yaw. Which is not a primary flight control surface? A. Flaps B. Stabilat...
