Question 1

Question
The basic crew tasks for aircraft operation:
Answer
  • Are the following: to fly, to navigate, to communicate and to manage the fly.
  • Are to monitor the short term flight path, to manage long term flight path, to communicate and to apply strategy of the flight.
  • Are to fly, to navigate, to communicate and to manage the airplane and accomplish the mission, in any foreseeable operating condition.
  • Are divided into three categories: primary, intermittent and continuous tasks.

Question 2

Question
The Minimum Flight Crew is composed by:
Answer
  • A fix number of members independently of the different missions of the airplane.
  • Only the number of members that are able to perform the missions with an acceptable level of workload.
  • As much as possible number of members in order to eliminate potential crew errors.

Question 3

Question
Human Factors Engineering:
Answer
  • Its application is not concurrent with other engineering disciplines during Flight Deck design process.
  • Focusses only in the Flight Deck design but not in the flight crew tasks to conduct the mission.
  • Intends to maximize the ability of the flight crew to operate the airplane at required levels by eliminating design‐induced difficulty and error.
  • Application to the Flight Deck design process will give an opportunity to make aviation both safer and more efficient.

Question 4

Question
Dark Cockpit philosophy:
Answer
  • If the working system returns to normal state, no light will turn off
  • If any abnormal situation takes place inside the flight deck, a light will automatically turn off 
in order to reduce crew workload
  • If any abnormal situation takes place inside the flight deck, a light will automatically turn on drawing the crew member's attention immediately

Question 5

Question
The Design Eye Position (DEP):
Answer
  • Is taken into account in the Flight Deck design process and is adjusted for different anthropometric population.
  • Is a point fixed in relation to the airplane structure at which the pilot’s eyes should be located when seated at the normal position.
  • Is taken into account in the Flight Deck internal components arrangement and is not in relation with Forward Fuselage Design.
  • Is a point fixed in relation to the airplane structure at which the pilot’s eyes should be located when seated at the normal position. All flight deck components are arranged in the relation to the DEP.

Question 6

Question
The principle of NVIS:
Answer
  • Is amplification of the thermal energy thought Image Intensifying Tubes in IR spectrum, just above near IR spectrum.
  • Is to filter against NIR or to inhibit in NVG mode all Flight Deck internal lights sources.
  • Is the ability of the aircraft to provide a crew environment that allows simultaneously safe operation of the aircraft in night low‐level tactical flights and reduction of vulnerability of military aircrafts at night.
  • Is amplification of photons through Image Intensifying Tubes in the near IR spectrum, just above visible spectrum.

Question 7

Question
The HUD/HMD:
Answer
  • Is able to present Enhanced Vision System image of the real world in order to enable pilots to fly with greater confidence and safety under the most challenging visual conditions.
  • Selection of De‐clutter function removes essential symbology from the HUD and the following symbols will be affected: Attitude, Speed, Altitude, and Heading.
  • HUD symbology is very similar to the Head-Down PFD in order to enhance the pilot transition front head down instruments to head up symbology.
  • HMD consists of one or more image sources, collimating optics, and a means to mount the assembly on the head. It creates and relay a virtual image of the CRT surface, projecting the imagery onto the see‐through combiner to the pilot’s eye.

Question 8

Question
The ANVIS/HUD disadvantages:
Answer
  • The pilot has to wear a helmet for long periods of time.
  • Pilot conformability can be decreased due to ANVIS/HUD mass.
  • Pilots have to wear a helmet for long duration.
  • The weight of the head equipment must be minimized

Question 9

Question
The following requirements must be considered in a Flight Crew Alerting System:
Answer
  • The colour of the Advisory signal shall be aviation yellow/amber
  • Emergency alert condition shall require immediate corrective action by the crew.
  • The color of the Warning signal shall be aviation red.
  • The color of the Advisory signal shall be aviation green.
  • Red Warning Messages shall remain presented until the causative condition has been corrected in order to reduce workload.
  • The colour of the Caution signal shall be aviation yellow/ambar

Question 10

Question
Displays can be:
Answer
  • Emissive and passive.
  • Reflective or transflective.
  • Direct view and projection
  • Emissive and non emissive/ passive.

Question 11

Question
Active Matrix LCD means:
Answer
  • Multiplexing is not addressed by columns and rows.
  • that there is a thin film transistor (TFT) in each pixel of the display.

Question 12

Question
The main advantage of electronic ink displays (e‐ink) versus conventional LCD or plasma displays is:
Answer
  • better color and grayscale.
  • are faster.
  • Can be printed onto flexible plastic.
  • Extremely large viewing angle.
  • Extremely low power requirements.
  • Power is only consumed while image is switching.

Question 13

Question
What is the standard of HDTV related to the aspect ratio?:
Answer
  • 16x10
  • 16:9
  • 4:3
  • 5:3

Question 14

Question

Answer
  • SXGA is 1280x1024 and 5:4
  • VGA is 720x480 and 4:3
  • HDTV 1080 is 1080x720 and 16:9

Question 15

Question
The difference between the maximum and minimum luminance of a display system is called:
Answer
  • Contrast resolution.
  • Contrast modulation.
  • Contrast ratio.
  • None of them.

Question 16

Question
What is a multiplexed driving in TV?:
Answer
  • Rows and columns are sequentially driven.
  • Rows and columns are simultaneously excited.
  • Sub‐units of the display (rows or columns) are driven one at a time.

Question 17

Question
The generation of grayscale in flat panel LCDs can be done by:
Answer
  • Driving alternately rows.
  • Driving alternately columns and rows.
  • Temporal and spatial dither.

Question 18

Question
