if a flight is made from an area of low to high pressure -- the altimeter will indicate : -:- lower than the actual altitude about sea level An aircraft equipped with an Electronic Flight Display can? -:- offer new capabilities and simplify the basic flying task What is the advantage to a constant speed prop? -:- Permits the pilot to select the blade angle for the most efficient performance If the ignition switch ground wire becomes disconnected, the magneto... -:- may continue to f...

Every physical process of weather is accompanied by, or is the result of, a -:- heat exchange What causes variations in altimeter settings between weather reporting points? -:- unequal heating of the earth's surface The wind at 5,000 feet AGL is southwesterly while the surface wind is southerly. This difference in direction is primarily due to -:- friction between the wind and the surface The development of thermals depend upon -:- solar heating Convective circulation patterns ass...

What is one purpose of the wing flaps? - ANSWER To enable the pilot to make stepper approaches to a landing without increasing the airspeed One of the main functions of flaps during approach and landing is to... - ANSWER Increase the angle of descent without increasing the airspeed What is the purpose of the rudder on an airplane? - ANSWER To control yaw Which is not a primary flight control surface? - ANSWER Flaps. The three primary flight controls of an airplane are the ailerons, t...
