  • lift off speed.
  • take-off decision speed.
  • critical engine failure speed.

Question 8

Question
82) An increase in atmospheric pressure has, among other things, the following consequences on take-off performance:
Answer
  • a reduced take-off distance and degraded initial climb performance
  • a reduced take-off distance and improved initial climb performance
  • an increases take-off distance and degraded initial climb performance
  • an increased take-off distance and improved initial climb performance

Answer
  • VSO (stalling speed in landing configuration)
  • VS1 (stalling speed in clean configuration)
  • VMO (maximum operating limit speed)
  • VA (design manoeuvring speed)

Question 10

Question
84) On a twin engined piston aircraft with variable pitch propellers, for a given mass and altitude, the minimum drag speed is 125 kt and the holding speed (minimum fuel burn per hour) is 95 kt. The best rate of climb speed will be obtained for a speed:
Answer
  • inferior to 95 kts
  • is between 95 and 125 kt
  • equal to 125 kt
  • equal to 95 kt

Question 11

Question
98) Which one of the following is not affected by a tail wind?
Answer

  • the obstacle limited take-off mass.
  • the take-off run.
  • the climb limited take-off mass.

Question 12

Question
86) In a steady descending flight (descent angle GAMMA) equilibrium of forces acting on the aeroplane is given by: (T = Thrust, D = Drag, W = Weight)
Answer
  • T + D = - W sin GAMMA
  • T + W sin GAMMA = D
  • T - W sin GAMMA = D
  • T - D = W sin GAMMA

Answer
  • less than 4 000 m.
  • unchanged, equal to 4 000 m.

  • higher than 4 000 m.

Question 14

Question
89) Consider the graphic representation of the power required versus true air speed (TAS), for a jet aeroplane with a given mass. When drawing the tangent out of the origin, the point of contact determines the speed of:
Answer
  • critical angle of attack.
  • maximum endurance.
  • minimum power.
  • maximum specific range.

Question 15

Question
90) Which of the following statements is correct ?
Answer

  • A stopway means an area beyond the take-off runway, able to support the aeroplane during an aborted take-off.
  • An underrun is an area beyond the runway end which can be used for an aborted take-off.
  • A clearway is an area beyond the runway which can be used for an aborted take-off.

Question 16

Question
91) What effect has a downhill slope on the take-off speeds? The slope
Answer
  • has no effect on the take-off speed V1.
  • decreases the take-off speed V1.
  • decreases the TAS for take-off.
