Study Notes
Local Anesthesia and Flight Operations
- Local anesthesia requires a waiting period of 24 hours before performing major aero work.
Altimeter Settings
- When the current altimeter setting is 29.82, the setting should be changed to 29.92 after entering the new altitude.
Wind Shear Encounter
- During an approach, if wind shear is encountered, and the headwind changes to a tailwind:
- Increase power higher than normal initially.
- Further increase power when encountering the headwind.
- Decrease power subsequently.
Long-Range Charts
- Long-range charts are used for flights lasting 8 hours and 48 minutes.
Engine Failure and Cruise
- If one engine fails during flight and you want to maintain cruise altitude, you can continue flying without landing for 60 minutes.
Hung Start
- A hung start occurs when the engine lights up (ignites), but the N1 (compressor speed) does not increase to low idle.
