During a manual approach, the aeroplane is subjected to windshear with an increasing head wind

In the absence of a pilot action, the aeroplane

1- flies above the intended approach path
2- flies below the intended approach path
3- has an increasing true airspeed
4- has a decreasing true airspeed

The combination of correct statements is?

This question has been flagged as being in an exam by multiple students, give it more attention

A

2, 4.

B

2, 3.

C

1, 3.

D

1, 4.

Explanation

An increasing headwind would cause a gain in energy for the aircraft. This would lead to:
Flying above the intended approach path
An increasing true airspeed

You are planning a leg from Bangor (North wales) N53°13'23' W004°08'20' to White churc N52°'58'03 W002°41'00'

What is the maximum altitude of the listed you could fly?

This question has been flagged as being in an exam by multiple students, give it more attention

A

FL55

B

4500feet

C

3000feet

D

2700Feet

Explanation

We have some class A airspace we need to consider between the 2, there is some airspace that is FL55 and the section next to it is 4,500 feet

Important tip - FL55 is the lowest section on one of the airways, on a day where the pressure is let's say 980 , if we are flying at 4,500feet our flight level is actually FL63 - so even though we are at 4,500 feet we would be infringing the class a airspace, so remember to think about this when you are flying around on your PPL

Before refuelling an aeroplane has a weight of 1335 lb and the total moments are 150000 in .lb aft of the datum.

390 lbs of fuel is loaded, with an effective arm of 12 inches aft of the datum.

What will the aeroplane CG position now be?

This question has been flagged as being in an exam by multiple students, give it more attention

A

96.4 inc aft of datum

B

92.10 inc aft of datum

C

89.66 inc aft of datum

D

78.4 inc aft of datum

Explanation

150,000 /1335= 115.38 before the fuel

Add the fuel in -
390 at 12 inches = 4680

150,000 + 4680 = 154680

154680/ the new total weight (1335 +390) = 89.66

154,000 /1335= 115.35 before the fuel

Add the fuel in -
390 at 109 inches = 42510

154,000 + 42510 = 196,510

196,510/ the new total weight (1335 +390) = 113.92

D

38.5

Explanation

For this, we must calculate our fuel burn between Leeds to Oxford using the values we already have

Our actual fuel used between the 2 points was 3.5 in 20 minutes, this means our fuel burn is 10.5 Per hour

There are 20 minutes to Dover , so we must divide 20 minutes (20/60) X fuel burn of 10.5 to get an estimated usage of fuel, and then subtract if from the 42 fuel we had at Oxford

Runway 02 has a threshold elevation of 230 ft and runway 20 has a threshold elevation of 260ft. If the TORA is 1200m calculate the slope of runway 02:

A

0.76% up

B

1.56% up

C

1.56% down

D

0.76% down

Explanation

Runway Slope % = Runway difference elevation / Length of runway X 100

Runway = 1200M which is 3936 feet (Get everything into the same unit)

The slope of runway = (260-230 = 30 / 3936 ) X 100 = 0.76%

Runway 02 has the slope up, as it has a lower threshold elevation

Calculate the aircraft’s CG position given the following weighing data.



Mass on nose wheel: 285 kg

Mass on left main wheels: 1465 kg

Mass on right main wheels: 1395 kg

Distance between the nose and main wheels: 7 ft 8 in

A

83.7 in aft of the nose wheel.

B

9.2 in forward of the main gear.

C

7.1 ft aft of the nose wheel.

D

18.3 in forward of the main gear.

Explanation

Use the main gear as the datum.

Arm = 7ft, 8in. (92 inches)
Arm Moment
Nose wheel mass: 285 x 92 -26220
Left wheel mass: 1465
Right wheel mass: 1395

Total Mass: 3145 -26220

CofG: -26220/3145 = -8.34inch

Look at the possible answers. 83.7inches works out at 6.97ft + 0.834 = 7ft 8in

B

18.3 in forward of the main gear.

C

9.2 in forward of the main gear.

D

7.1 ft aft of the nose wheel.

Explanation

Refer to image.

Use nosewheel as the datum.
Now draw a weight-moment-arm table as in the image.

You will need to convert the 7ft 8in into inches = 92inches
