Resource summary

Question 1

Question
A pilot is enjoying straight and level flight with little or no control input required. This condition is achieved by the _________ control
Answer
  • Flap
  • Aileron
  • rudder
  • Trim

Question 2

Question
The main force which makes flight possible is called _____
Answer
  • Lift
  • Thrust
  • Aircraft Speed
  • Anti-Gravity

Question 3

Question
When making an approach to a runway, the pilot uses the Flaps. Their purpose is to:
Answer
  • Prevent the aircraft from crashing
  • Provide additional Lift at a lower speed
  • lower the speed of the aircraft
  • Decrease the pitch of the aircraft

Question 4

Question
There are four forces acting upon an aircraft in flight:; What are they?
Answer
  • Weight, Speed, Gravity and Thrust
  • Drag, Gravity, Thrust and Lift
  • Thrust, Speed, weight and drag
  • Gravity, Thrust, Airflow and angle of attack

Question 5

Question
An airfoil has the following characteristics:
Answer
  • 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

Question 6

Question
The chordline of an airfoil runs from wing tip to wing root
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 7

Question
Which answer is true?
Answer
  • 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

Question 8

Question
The Ailerons control which axis of the aircraft?
Answer
  • Pitch
  • Yaw
  • Roll
  • The ailerons control the descent speed

Question 9

Question
What is the name for the section of the aircraft from just behind the wings to the end of its tail?
Answer
  • Empennage
  • Aircraft tail
  • Luggage compartment
  • Cowling

Question 10

Question
The pitch and Yaw of an aircraft is controlled by:
Answer
  • The Flaps and ailerons
  • The ailerons and Rudder
  • The rudder and Trim Tabs
  • The Elevator and Rudder
