Which integrated flight management system subsystem uses multiple satellites to calculate the aircraft's present longitude and latitude?
Global positioning system
What provides the primary processing and interface functions for the flight management system?
control display unit
The data loader system is comprised of a
data card and data receptable
After the ADTD is first turned on, the heaters/ADTD may take up to
20 minutes to reach 0º C
According to the principles applicable to the A/S indicator, as altitude increases, the maximum allowable A/S
decreases
What type of pressure enters the A/S diaphram of the A/S indicator?
Pitot
Which error(s) must be corrected to make an A/S indicator display true A/S
Altitude and temperature
The sensing elements in the true A/S indicator are surrounded by
static pressure
Which conditions cause an uncorrected A/S indicator to read higher that it should?
Decreased altitude and decreased temperature
Which indicator helps the pilot maintain a specific rate of climb or dive?
Vertical velocity
What type of pressure is applied to the inside of the thermos chamber of the rate-of-climb indicator
Unresticted static
During what aircraft maneuver is the static pressure inside the diaphragm of the vertical velocity indicator greater than on the outside?
dive
The standard datum plane is a theoretical plane where the atmospheric pressure is
29.92" Hg and the temperature is +15ºC
Static pressure is
greater at low altitudes and less at higher altitudes
What type of error is caused by the location and manner in which a pitot tube is installed?
