Answer
  • Climb Gradient = ((Thrust - Drag)/Weight) x 100

  • Cimb Gradient = (Lift/Weight) x 100

Question 10

Question
62) On a long distance flight the gross mass decreases continuously as a consequence of the fuel consumption. The result is:
Answer
  • The speed must be increased to compensate the lower mass.
  • The specific range increases and the optimum altitude decreases.
  • The specific range decreases and the optimum altitude increases.
  • The specific range and the optimum altitude increases.

Question 11

Question
41) The Density Altitude
Answer
  • is used to calculate the FL above the Transition Altitude.
  • is used to determine the aeroplane performance.
  • is equal to the pressure altitude.
  • is used to establish minimum clearance of 2.000 feet over mountains.

Question 12

Question
30) The climb gradient of an aircraft after take-off is 6% in standard atmosphere, no wind, at 0 ft pressure altitude. Using the following corrections: "± 0,2 % / 1 000 ft field elevation" "± 0,1 % / °C from standard temperature" " - 1 % with wing anti-ice" " - 0,5% with engine anti-ice" The climb gradient after take-off from an airport situated at 1 000 ft, 17° C; QNH 1013,25 hPa, with wing and engine anti-ice operating for a functional check is :
Answer
  • 3,9 %
  • 4,3 %
  • 4,7 %
  • 4,9 %

Question 13

Question
31) Which one of the following statements concerning drift- down is correct?
Answer
  • The drift-down procedure requires a minimum descent angle after an engine failure at cruising altitude.
  • The drift-down procedure requires a minimum obstacle clearance of 35 ft.
  • An engine failure at high cruising altitude will always result in a drift-down, because it is not permitted to fly the same altitude with one engine inoperative as with all engines operating.
  • When determining the obstacle clearance during drift-down, fuel dumping may be taken into account.

Question
34) What is the advantage of balancing V1, even in the event of a climb limited take-off?
