ATPL Exam Questions and Answers

100% Solved | Rated A+


What are the forces acting on an aircraft in flight? - ✔✔Drag. Thrust. Lift

and Weight

What is direct lift control? - ✔✔The elevator / stabilizer provide the direct lift

control.

What are high lift devices? - ✔✔Trailing edge flaps. Leading edge flaps.

Slots

Define the two major types or Drag. - ✔✔Profile and induced drag which

equals total drag

What are high drag devices? - ✔✔Trailing edge flaps, spoilers, landing

gear, revere thrust, braking parachute.

How do you prevent span-vise airflow on a wing especially swept wing? -

✔✔Fences, vortex generators

What is the purpose vortex generators and fences? - ✔✔To reduce

spanwise airflow and thereby reduce its effects

What are winglets and how do they work? - ✔✔Winglets are

aerodynamically efficient surfaces located at the wing tips. They are

designed to reduce induced drag. They dispense the spanwise airflow from

the upper and lower surfaces at different points.

How does a forward center of gravity affect the stall speed? - ✔✔A center

of gravity forward of the center of pressure will cause a higher stall speed

What advantages does an aircraft gain from a swept swing? - ✔✔High

mach cruise speeds, stability in turbulence.

Where does a swept wing stall first? - ✔✔A simple swept or tapered wing

will stall at the wing tip first.

Explain speed stability. - ✔✔It's the behavior of the speed after a

disturbance at a fixed power setting

What is Mach Number - ✔✔Mach number is a true airspeed indication,

given as a percentage relative to the local speed of sound.

What is the critical Mach number (mcrit)? - ✔✔Mcrit is the aircraft's mach

speed at which the airflow over a wing becomes sonic.

What is Mach tuck? - ✔✔Is the nose down pitching moment an aircraft

experiences as it passes it's critical mach number

What is the purpose of a mach trimmer? - ✔✔A Mach trimmer is to

automatically compensate for Mach tuck above Mcrit.

What are the affects of compressibility? - ✔✔The effect of air being

compressed onto a surface resulting in an increase in density and thus

dynamic pressure rises above its expected value.

What changes the aircrafts angle of attack at the stall? - ✔✔The movement

of the center of pressure point at the stall causes a change in the aircraft's

angle of attack

What happens to the stall speed at very high altitudes? - ✔✔Mach number

compressibility effect on the wing results in a higher EAS (actual equivalent

airspeed), compressibility error on the IAS increases the stall speed

What is super stall? - ✔✔Is a stall from which the aircraft is unable to

recover.

What is Dutch roll? - ✔✔Dutch roll is an oscillatory Instability. It is the

combination of yawing and rolling motions

What causes Dutch roll? - ✔✔Swept wings
