1- On a multi-engine aircraft equipped with a coventional constant-speed, variable-pitch, full-feathering propeller, which direction does increasing oil pressure in the propeller hub move the blades? - Toward low-pitch, low rpm - Toward high-pitch, low rpm - **Toward low-pitch, high rpm** 2 - What is the recommended bank angle to use when performing turns with one engine inoperative? - 10 degrees - 5 degrees - **15 degrees** - 20 degrees 3 - In a high AoA situation, the descending blade of the propeller generates assymetry due to: - The ascending blade generating more effective thrust - **A higher thrust generated than the ascending blade** - The prop. having 3 blades - It being heavier than the ascending blade 4 - Which factors lower Vmc? - An increase in weight and an aft CG - A decrease in weight and an aft CG - **An increase in weight and forward CG** 5 - The propellers assymetric load contribute the left turning tendency in conventional airplanes. - False - **True** 6 - In case of a sudden power reduction during a approach, a high RoD is observed due to: - open cowl flaps - reduced P-factor - **reduced induced airflow** - reduced torque 7 - There are 2 types of fuel pumps to provide fuel pressure: eng. driven fuel pumps and electrical boost pumps. - **True** - False 8 - The reccomended T/O speed is Vmc + 5 kts - **True** - False 9 - To execute an instrument approach on one engine, plan to fly the final approach segment at Vyse or Vmc, whichever is lower. - True - **False** 10 - The right eng. is critical in multi-engine airplanes that have engine configurations in which both propellers turn clockwise. - True - **False** 11 - Vxse is defined as: - Best rate of climb OEI - **Best angle of climb OEI** - Maximum landing gear extended speed - Best angle of climb 12 - During T/O run, in addition to monitoring the RPM, map and oil temperature and pressure, the pilot should also check: - **FF and airspeed** - Flight instruments and fuel quantity - EGT and fuel selectors - Flaps and cabin door 13 - Select the true statement: - **Executing a stabilized app. can help prevent having to perform a risky engine-out go-around** - As you reduce power on final, be prepared to increase rudder pressure toward the operative eng. to maintain directional control - There is no need to declare an emergency provided one engine is still operating normally 14 - The recommended procedure for tight turns while rolling on the ground is: - Both nose wheel turning and brake differential - Nose wheel turning - **Power differential** - Brake differential 15 - An engine failure must be considered for all departures in a multi-engine airplane. - **True** - False 16 - The speed for best rate of climb in a multi-engine airplane is called: - Vx - Vxse - **Vy** - Vyse 17 - The ASD is longer when the density altitude is lower. - True - **False** 18 - The left engine is the critical engine in all twin engine aircraft: - True - **False** 19 - The assymetrical load of the propellers tends to make conventional airplanes to turn to the left: - **True** - False 20 - The landing gear warning horn will not sound if the gear is up and only one throttle is reduced to idle. - True - **False** 21 - What rate of climb determines the single-engine service ceiling for a twin-engine airplane? - **50 ft/min** - 100 ft/min - Zero. That´s why it´s called ceiling 22 - If you determine the inoperative engine cannot be restarted after failure, you should always feather the propeller to reduce drag. - **True** - False 23 - Define T/O decision speed (V1): - **The highest speed at which the pilot must initiate action to stop the airplane in the event of an aborted takeoff** - The speed at which the nose wheel is lifted, committing the aircraft to flight even if a powerplant should fail - The maximum speed at which the airplane can experience an engine failure and still be stopped within the ASD 24 - During takeoffs, a propeller synchronizer may be used to balance the rpm btw engines. - True - **False** 25 - During a OEI approach, flaps should be operated as little as possible until the landing is assured. - **True** - False 26 - Which of the following causes more drag during an engine failure? - Full flaps - LDG gear down - **Windmilling propeller** - It varies depending on the aircraft 27 - If a T/O is initiated at an altitude greater than OEI service ceiling, an eng. failure will result in: - a normal climb after take-off - a shallow climb after take-off - **level flight after take-off** - a forced landing 28 - The altitude at which Vx and Vy are the same is called: - Decision altitude - **Absolute ceiling** - Service ceiling - Relative ceiling 29 - A red light on the landing gear indication system means the wheels are ascending, descending or not yet locked. - **True** - False 30 - Turbocharging increases the service airplaine´s ceiling by: - providing more lift - providing more induced airflow - enabling a better air-fuel ratio - **providing sea level or greater map at high altitudes**
