Total Air Temperature (TAT) is:

The air speed indicator is a differential manometer measuring the difference between:

Indication of Mach number is obtained from:

The alternate static source of a non-pressurised aircraft is located in the flight deck; when used, the static pressure sensed is likely to be

EAS is equal to:

The parameter that determines the relationship between EAS and TAS is:

If the static ports are completely clogged up by ice during a climb, the vertical speed indicator shows:

If the pitot tube becomes blocked during a descent, the airspeed indicator

The open-ended tube parallel to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft senses the:

The response time of the vertical speed detector may be decreased by adding a:

Which of the following statements about hard and soft iron in relation to magnetism is correct?

When turning onto a northerly heading the rose of a magnetic compass tends to "undershoot", when turning onto a southerly heading it tends to "overshoot": 1) these compass indications are less reliable in the Northern Hemisphere than in the Southern Hemisphere. 2) there commas oscillations following a lateral gust are not identical if the aircraft is heading north or south 3) this behaviour is due to the mechanical construction of the compass 4) this behaviour is a symptom of a badly sun compass

The purpose of compass swinging is to determine the deviation of a magnetic compass:

A pilot wishes to turn right on to a southerly heading with 20 bank at latitude 20N. Using a direct reading magnetic compass, in order to achieve this he must stop the turn on an approximate heading of:

Among the systematic errors of the directional gyro, the error due to the earth rotation make the north reference turn in the horizontal plane. At a mean latitude of 45N, this reference turns by:

Concerning the directional gyro, the apparent drift rate due to the Earth's rotation is a function of

After the initial 90 degrees of a turn at constant pitch and bank, a classic artificial horizon indicates:

The flux valve of a gyromagnetic compass: 1. Feeds the error detector 2. Feeds the direct indicating compass 3. Gives the earth's magnetic field direction The combination regrouping all of the correct statements is:

The accelerometers of a strap-down IRS are in line with:

In an INS, ground speed is calculated:

Considering a stabilised platform inertial system, the principle of operation requires the use of at least

The sensors of an INS measure

The Notification (LOG ON) is a FANS application which consists in:

The ADS-C is a FANS application performed:

The FMS enables to fly an optimum flight profile. For this, the FMC uses: 1. Flight crew entered flight plan data 2. Data from the ADC 3. Aircraft position 4. A memorised relief world data base 5. Data from the FMC navigation The combination that regroups all of the correct statements is:

Concerning the FMS, entering a cost index of zero results in:

On a modern aircraft, the flight director modes are displayed on the:

The Navigation Display (ND) of an EFIS equipped aircraft can display the following data:

In a radio altimeter, the height measurement is based upon:

The radio altimeter: 1. Operates in the 1600-1660 kHz range 2. Operates in the 4200-4400 Mhz range 3. Measures a frequency difference 4. Measures an amplitude difference The combination that regroups all of the correct statements is:

When climbing at a constant CAS above the tropopause in ISA:

In an INS, the E/W accelerations are converted into an E/W speed (kts) at the first stage of integration and into E/W distance (nm) at the second stage of integration. This gives:

By definition an Earth gyro is a
