Which of the following are reasons for trimming an aircraft in pitch?
1. Changes of speed
2. Changes of power
3. Varying CG position
4. Lateral displacement of CG
Given:
Distance from departure to destination: 210 NM
Safe Endurance: 3.5 h
True Track: 310°
W/V: 270/30
TAS: 120 kt
What is the distance of the PSR from the departure point?
An aircraft intends to fly initially with 140 kt TAS at low level, until it climbs to FL70 to join an airway from the waypoint GRICE. If the aircraft is planned to maintain the TAS 140 kt along the airway, how must this change in flight level at GRICE be entered into the Item 15 (ROUTE) of the ATS flight plan?
Given
Distance from departure to destination 180 NM
Safe Endurance 2.8 hrs
True Track 065°
W/V 245/25
TAS 100 kts
What is the distance of the PSR from the departure point?
Given Planning data as shown in the Flight Log excerpt (Fuel Planning Section)
After a balked landing at the destination airport, you have to divert to the alternate airport with the gear extended. The re-calculated flight time to the alternate due to the reduced speed is 1 h 20 min and the fuel flow will be 720 kg/h. Final Reserve Fuel remains unchanged. What will be the estimated landing mass at the alternate airport?
Which one of the following statements below is INCORRECT?
What is the difference between an LNAV and an LP approach to the same runway?
Using Flight Planning Manual MRJT 1 Figure 4.7.2)
For the purpose of planning an extended range flight it is required that with a start of diversion mass of 55000 kg a diversion of 600 nautical miles should be achieved in 90 minutes. Using the above table, the only listed cruise technique to meet that requirement is?
Which flight plan is considered as a "current flight plan"?
Given the following information, calculate the Thrust vector in a straight and steady power-on descent with an angle of 30°:
Weight: 11350 kg
Lift: 10320 kg
Drag: 11010 kg
Refer to figure or to VFR chart ED-4 from the Jeppesen GSPRM 2017.
You are planning a VFR flight from Schärding Süben (LOLS) (48°24′11″N, 013°26'53°E) to Pfarrkirchen (EDNP) (48°25′12″N, 012°51′53″E) aerodromes, which of the following statements are true?
1. The cruising altitude should be 5500 ft
2. Your route follows the river "Rott" Westwards
3. The cruising altitude should be 6500 ft
4. Your route follows the A3 motorway Northwards
5. You will enter class F airspace during the final approach
Given Planned and actual data as shown in the Flight Log excerpt. Arriving overhead GAMMA you are cleared for direct routing to MIKE. The flight time for direct flight GAMMA to MIKE will be 42 min. Provided that flight conditions on the direct leg GAMMA to MIKE remain unchanged and fuel consumption remains unchanged, what fuel remaining should be expected at waypoint MIKE?
The planned flight is over a distance of 440 NM Based on the wind charts at altitude the following components are found FL50-30 kts FL100-50 kts FL180-70 kts The Operations Manual in appendix details the aircraft performances. Which of the following (FL) gives the best range performance?
Refer to VFR chart ED-4 from the Jeppesen GSPRM 2017.
You are planning a VFR flight from Landshut aerodrome (EDML, 48°30.7’N 012°02.0’E) to Deggendorf aerodrome (EDMW, 48°49.8’N 012° 52.8’E) following the A92 highway.
What is the height of the highest man-made obstacle in the vicinity of your route?
Refer to GSPRM Jeppesen Chart E(LO)2.
A flight is planned along route T420, course 330°, FL360, inbound TRENT VOR/DME (TNT, N 53.1° W 1.7°). A descent should be initiated to pass waypoint ELVOS at FL200.
Calculate the Top of Descent (TOD) relating to TRENT, given the following information?
ROD: 2300 ft/min
GS: 345 kt
Wind component: 35 kt tailwind
Given:
Total fuel 15000 kg
Reserve 1500 kg
TAS 440 kts
Wind component
45 head outbound
Average fuel flow 2150 kg/hr
What is the distance to the point of safe return?
A flight has to be made with a multi-engine piston aeroplane for the fuel calculations take
5 US gallons for the taxi
Additional 13 minutes at cruise condition to account for climb and descent
Calculated time overhead to overhead is 2 hrs. 37 min
Power setting is 65%, 2500 RPM
Calculated reserve fuel is 30% of the Trip Fuel
FL120, OAT is 1°C
Find the minimum Block Fuel?
