Procedures for carb heat/ things to be cautious of
|
Use max carb heat if carb ice is suspected.
Use minimum carb heat to keep off ice (by trial and error). In extremely cold, use of carb heat may increase carb into icing temperatures. |
|
How to calculate pressure altitude given indicated altitude, and pressure
|
Find diff. between pressure and std. pressure (29.92).
Take out decimal and add a 0 to that number. If pressure is higher than std., subtract that number from indicated alt. |
|
Normal operating range of cylinder head temp.
|
2/3rd of the way hot

How do you activate window defrost?
|
Use cabin heat

When is pressure maintained in retractable gear?
|

|
|
turning tendencies
|
P factor (left yaw)

|
Explain adverse yaw
|
when turning, the down aileron on creates lift, causing increase in induced drag, therefore causing yaw
|
|

|
Provide pilot briefings, flight plan processing, en route radio communication, search and rescue services, assistance to lost aircraft, broadcast weather, provide airport advisory services to non towered airports (kind of like tower)
Flight Watch (weather info) and |
|
What happens above 10,000'?
|
No speed limit
Visibility/cloud clearances reduce Mode C required |
|
Freezing rain (where and at what temperature)
|
Ahead of warm fronts, usually 0 to -5 degrees
