Answer 1

Attitude and power

Question 2

“Primary and supporting methods” and “aircraft control”: what are the four elements of aircraft control?

Answer 2

Pitch
Bank
Power
Trim

Question 3

Which instrument should always be used if available because it instantly portrays the actual bank and pitch of the aircraft and is the central focus of a good cross check?

Answer 3

Attitude indicator

Question 4

Cross check: in general, the most important instruments to watch during any oaryicuslr manger associated with Task 1166.01 through 1166.06 are those _________

Answer 4

That are held to be constant

Question 5

Concerning straight and level:

In calm air the aircraft will ___ heading and altitude with ___ input from the pilot, if the ___ and ___ are set properly

Deviations in altitude (<___ft) should be corrected by adjusting ___ attitude with the cyclic beep trim switch if airspeed can be maintained within +-___KIAS. In all other cases a power change should be made

Answer 5

Maintain
No inputs
Attitude and power

<100 feet
Pitch
+-5 KIAS

Question 6

Concerning climbs and descents:

A change of approximately one FLI will result in a ___FPM climb to descent. This equates to a ___% change in torque from cruise flight.

Level off should be accomplished by adjusting power to cruise torque beginning ___feet (__%) prior to desired altitude

Answer 6

500 FPM
10%

50 feet
10%

Question 7

Concerning a standard rate turn:

The turn is initiated with what instrument?

The desired bank angle is how many degrees and why?

In a standard rate turn, how many degrees does the aircraft heading change per second/ ten seconds/ one minute?

Answer 7

Attitude indicator

15% of TAS that allows for 3° per second turn

3° per second/30°/180°

Question 8

Roll beep trim banks the aircraft at about ___ degrees per second. The trim switch must be held for a little over ___ seconds to establish a standard rate turn at 90 knots. The aircraft continues to roll for several degrees after the switch is released so desired roll attitudes must be led by releasing the switch several degrees ___. Begin rolling out of a turn by an equal to ___ the angle of bank (approximately ___ degrees for a standard rate turn at 90 knots.)

Answer 8

4° per second
3 seconds
Early
1/2
7°

Question 9

In IMC the normally used terms as described in section 3, para 3.1.4 of the basic flight manual “LAND AS SOON AS ___ and ___ are both as defined as follows:

• try to reach ___ and continue in accordance with ___ flight rules
• if ___ is not possible, land at the nearest ___ airfield with a published ______

The term LAND AS SOON AS ___ remains unchanged

Answer 9

Possible
Immediently

VMC
Visual

VFR
IFR
Instrument approach

LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE

Question 10

What is the maximum bank angle reccomend under instrument conditions?

When making turns to a predetermined heading, “the bank angle should never exceed” what?

Answer 10

30°

The bank angle should never exceed the number of degrees to be turned
