Study Notes
Outbound Destination Sign
- Identifies the direction to take-off runways.
Federal Airway Width
- The width from the centerline is 4 nautical miles.
Magnetic Compass Behavior
- In the Northern Hemisphere, compass initially indicates a turn toward the east during left turns from a north heading.
Alcohol or Drug Conviction Consequences
- Conviction grounds for denial of an FAA certificate or rating under 14 CFR part 61.
Wake Turbulence
- Vortex circulates outward, upward, and around each wingtip.
Aft CG Limit Effects
- Difficulty in recovering from a stalled condition if CG is aft of limits.
Incident Reporting to NTSB
- Report required when requested after an aircraft incident.
Low-Level Turbulence in Fog
- Hazardous icing likely in steam fog.
Aircraft Classifications
- Classes include airplane, rotorcraft, glider, and balloon.
Safety Belt Regulations
- Required during taxi, takeoffs, and landings with certain exceptions.
Hazardous Wind Shear Conditions
- Expected in low-level temperature inversions and frontal zones.
Somatogravic Illusion Likelihood
- Increased risk during takeoff phase.
Magneto Disconnection Effects
- Engine cannot be shut down with the switch if the ground wire is disconnected.
Cooperstown Airport Coordinates
- Approximate latitude and longitude: 47°25'N - 98°06'W.
VFR Operation Requirements in Class B Airspace
- Needs two-way radio, a 4096-code transponder, and an encoding altimeter.
Fuel Drainage Calculation
- Draining approximately 18.4 gallons brings an aircraft 110 pounds under max gross weight.
Fuel/Air Mixture during Descent
- Mixture may become excessively lean during descent from 9,500 to 4,500 feet MSL.
Magnetic Compass Accuracy
- Correctly indicates direction when on a north or south heading despite acceleration/deceleration.
Global Positioning System (GPS)
- Composed of 24 satellites.
BasicMed Certification Requirements
- Pilots without a medical certificate must obtain one to qualify for BasicMed.
Constant-Speed Propeller Benefits
- Allows selection for optimal blade angle, improving performance efficiency.
True North vs. Magnetic North
- Angular difference is referred to as magnetic variation.
Altimeter Indication Changes
- Will indicate lower than actual altitude when transitioning from low to high pressure without adjustment.
Motor Vehicle Conviction Reporting
- Written report to FAA Civil Aviation Security required within 60 days of conviction.
Hazards in Military Operations Areas (MOA)
- Likely presence of unusual hazards like artillery firing and aerial gunnery.
Class C Airspace Radio Equipment
- Requires two-way radio, a 4096-code transponder, and an encoding altimeter.
Initial Contact with Flight Service
- Proper phraseology includes specific station and aircraft identification.
Frost Formation Conditions
- Occurs when collecting surface temperature is at or below dewpoint of adjacent air, which must also be below freezing.
Emergency Transponder Code
- Code 7700 is to be used in distress or general emergency situations.
Basic VFR Takeoff or Landing Requirements
- Flight visibility must be at least 3 miles at airports within Class D airspace.
Class C Airspace Entry Action
- Pilot should contact approach control before entering.
