PPL Written Questions Review (2)

During a crosswind landing using the wing-low method, which wheel touches down first?

Upwind main wheel.

What action should be taken if wheelbarrowing occurs during the landing roll?

Apply back-elevator pressure.

When performing an approach and landing to a soft field, what is the proper approach angle?

Normal approach angle.

The angle of attack at which an airplane wing stalls will

remain the same regardless of gross weight.

When operating under visual flight rules in a light single-engine airplane, what is the appropriate pilot action if minor deviations cause the approach to become momentarily unstable below 500 feet above runway elevation but appear correctable without excessive control inputs?

Go-around.

If you are on approach and picking up ½ in. of rime ice on the leading edge of your wings, you should consider:

A faster than normal approach and landing speed.

During crosswind touchdown with wing-low, which wheel touches down first?

Upwind main wheel.

If it is necessary to set the altimeter from 29.15 to 29.85, what change occurs?

700-foot increase in indicated altitude.

When the course deviation indicator (CDI) needle is centered using a VOR test signal (VOT), the omnibearing selector (OBS) and the TO/FROM indicator should read

0 ∘   FROM or 180 ∘   TO, regardless of the pilot's position from the VOT.

(Refer to Figure 60.) How should the 500-pound weight be shifted to balance the plank on the fulcrum?

1 inch to the left.

When must the battery in an emergency locator transmitter (ELT) be replaced (or recharged if the battery is rechargeable)?

After one-half the battery's useful life.

Safety belts are required to be properly secured about which persons in an aircraft and when?

Each person on board the aircraft during the entire flight.

With certain exceptions, safety belts are required to be secured about passengers during

taxi, takeoffs, and landings.

(Refer to Figure 66.) While practicing S-turns, a consistently smaller half-circle is made on one side of the road than on the other, and this turn is not completed before crossing the road or reference line. This would most likely occur in turn

4–5–6 because the bank is increased too rapidly during the early part of the turn.

(Refer to Figure 9, area C.) How should the flight controls be held while taxiing a tailwheel airplane with a left quartering tailwind?

Left aileron down, elevator down.

(Refer to Figure 9, area B.) How should the flight controls be held while taxiing a tailwheel airplane into a right quartering headwind?

Right aileron up, elevator up.

(Refer to Figure 72.) The positive limit load factor is represented by the

horizontal dashed line from C to point E.

Unless otherwise authorized, if flying a transponder equipped aircraft, a pilot should squawk which VFR code?

1200

When you adjust the fuel/air ratio with the mixture control for a change of altitude, the ratio you are changing is the

weight of fuel to the weight of air.

Which of the following is true about the comprehensive medical exam (CME)?

A pilot operating under BasicMed must keep a copy of the signed CME checklist in their logbook.

During which phase of flight is a pilot at increased odds of experiencing a somatogravic illusion?

Takeoff.
