Question 1 of 10

10

A pilot is enjoying straight and level flight with little or no control input required. This condition is achieved by the _________ control

Select one of the following:

  • Flap

  • Aileron

  • rudder

  • Trim

Explanation

Question 2 of 10

10

The main force which makes flight possible is called _____

Select one of the following:

  • Lift

  • Thrust

  • Aircraft Speed

  • Anti-Gravity

Explanation

Question 3 of 10

10

When making an approach to a runway, the pilot uses the Flaps. Their purpose is to:

Select one of the following:

  • Prevent the aircraft from crashing

  • Provide additional Lift at a lower speed

  • lower the speed of the aircraft

  • Decrease the pitch of the aircraft

Explanation

Question 4 of 10

10

There are four forces acting upon an aircraft in flight:; What are they?

Select one of the following:

  • Weight, Speed, Gravity and Thrust

  • Drag, Gravity, Thrust and Lift

  • Thrust, Speed, weight and drag

  • Gravity, Thrust, Airflow and angle of attack

Explanation

Question 5 of 10

10

An airfoil has the following characteristics:

Select one of the following:

  • It's upper surface is shorter than its lower surface

  • It's upper and lower surfaces are the same length

  • Its lower surface is shorter than its upper surface

  • All of the above are incorrect; The upper and lower surfaces are flat

Explanation

Question 6 of 10

10

The chordline of an airfoil runs from wing tip to wing root

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 7 of 10

1

Which answer is true?

Select one of the following:

  • An airfoil develops lift because the airflow over the upper surface travels faster than the airflow over the lower surface. This creates a low pressure area at the top of the wing and a low pressure area at the bottom of the wing. This causes the wing to move from high pressure to low pressure.

  • The manufactured angle of attack for the wing causes more of the bottom surface of the wing to be exposed to the airflow. This tends to push the wing in an upward direction

  • Both answers are true

  • Neither answer is true

Explanation

Question 8 of 10

10

The Ailerons control which axis of the aircraft?

Select one of the following:

  • Pitch

  • Yaw

  • Roll

  • The ailerons control the descent speed

Explanation

Question 9 of 10

10

What is the name for the section of the aircraft from just behind the wings to the end of its tail?

Select one of the following:

  • Empennage

  • Aircraft tail

  • Luggage compartment

  • Cowling

Explanation

Question 10 of 10

10

The pitch and Yaw of an aircraft is controlled by:

Select one of the following:

  • The Flaps and ailerons

  • The ailerons and Rudder

  • The rudder and Trim Tabs

  • The Elevator and Rudder
