Study Notes
Aviation Concepts
- Dynamic hydroplaning occurs at high speeds and is related to standing water.
Aircraft Performance
- Tailplane stall is a symptom of an aircraft stall at high speeds.
Safety Regulations
- Transport category aircraft must carry life preservers (life rafts) onboard when operating more than 400 NM from land, with a minimum endurance of 120 minutes.
Medical Requirements
- For an ATPL medical certificate at 40 years old, the validity period is 12 months, with an ECG required annually, and an audiogram required every 12 months or at the first medical examination, or at 55 years old.
Aerodynamics
- Buffet boundary limits are between 0.736 and 0.804.
Aircraft Limitations
- The crosswind limitation for a given CRFI (0.3) is 15 KTS.
Aviation Instruments
- A Mach meter measures the relationship between an aircraft's speed and local sound speed.
