What causes an airplane (except a T-tail) to pitch nosedown when power is reduced and controls are not adjusted?
  1. The CG shifts forward when thrust and drag are reduced.
  2. The downwash on the elevators from the propeller slipstream is reduced and elevator effectiveness is reduced.
  3. When thrust is reduced to less than weight, lift is also reduced and the wings can no longer support the weight.
Continuing Education Sports
What must a pilot be aware of as a results of ground effect?
  1. Induced drag decreases, therefore, any excess speed at the point of flare may cause considerable floating.
  2. Wingtip vortices increase creating wake turbulence problems for arriving and departing aircraft.
  3. A full stall landing will require less up elevator deflection than would a full stall done free of ground effect.
Continuing Education Sports
The greatest vortex strength occurs when the generating aircraft is
  1. light, dirty, and fast.
  2. heavy, dirty, and fast.
  3. heavy, clean, and slow.
Continuing Education Sports
Floating caused by the phenomenon of ground effect will be most realized during an approach to land when at
  1. less than the length of the wingspan above the surface.
  2. twice the length of the wingspan above the surface.
  3. a higher-than-normal angle of attack.
Continuing Education Sports
During an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will cause the airplane to
  1. stall at higher airspeed.
  2. have a tendency to spin.
  3. be more difficult to control.
Continuing Education Sports
Wingtip vortices are created only when an aircraft is
  1. operating at high airspeeds.
  2. heavily loaded.
  3. developing lift.
Continuing Education Sports
The wind condition that requires maximum caution when avoiding wake turbulence on landing is a
  1. light, quartering headwind.
  2. light, quartering tailwind.
  3. strong headwind.
Continuing Education Sports
An airplane said to be inherently stable will
  1. be difficult to stall.
  2. require less effort to control.
  3. not spin.
Continuing Education Sports
When taking off or landing at an airport where heavy aircraft are operating, one should be particularly alert to the hazards of wingtip vortices because this turbulence tends to
  1. rise from a crossing runway into the takeoff or landing path.
  2. rise into the traffic pattern area surrounding the airport.
  3. sink into the flightpath of aircraft operating below the aircraft generating the turbulence.
