1
BL 3- 1 What is the three skills used in attitude instrument training in correct order?
Cross-Check instrument interpretation and aircraft control
2
To overcomespatial disorientation a pilot should?
cross-check and interpret the flight instruments properly
3
BL. Pitch attitude to maintain a level flight will be depend upon:

Density altitude, AOA required, Airspeed.
4
BL 3 -3 As a rule of thumb, for errors of less than 100 feet, use a ____bar width correction. For errors in excess of 100 feet, use an initial ____ bar width correction.

half, full
5
BL 3-4 The pitch control instruments are

altimeter, airspeed indicator, and VSI.

6
BL 3-5 For a pitch correction to return from deviated altitude, which instruments should be used?

Attitude indicator, altimeter, and VSI.

7
BL 3-6 Unless the airspeed is constant, and until the level flight attitude for that airspeed has been identified and established, there is no way to know whether level flight as indicated on the ___________(fill in the blank)

Attitude indicator.

8
BL. 3-7 During the bank turn airspeed is decreased, what pilot must be do to maintain level flight?

Decrease the angle of bank and increase the angle of attack.

9
BL During a skidding turn, how the component of lift, centrifugal force, and load factor interact?

Horizontal lift is less than Centrifugal force and the load factor is increased.

10
BL 3-8 To enter a constant-airspeed climb from cruising airspeed,

raise the miniature aircraft to the approximate nose-high indication for the predetermined climb speed

11
To level off from a climb and maintain an altitude, it is necessary to start the level off before reaching the desired altitude. An effective practice is to lead the altitude by ____percent of the vertical speed shown.

10 percent.

12
To enter a constant-airspeed descent from level cruising flight and maintain cruising airspeed, the pilot should

simultaneously reduce power and adjust the pitch using the attitude indicator as a reference to maintain the cruising airspeed.

13
Since the nose tends to rise as the airspeed increases, hold forward elevator pressure to maintain the vertical speed at the descending rate until approximately ___ feet above the altitude (Also to level off from a descent maintaining the descending airspeed, the pilot should lead the desired altitude by same amount)

50 feet.

14
BL Assuming a 500 fpm rate of descent, lead the altitude by _____ feet for a level off at an airspeed higher than descending speed.

100 to 150

15
BL The source of attitude and heading data for The primary flight display (PFD) is:

AHRS
16
BL If a half standard rate turn is maintained, how much time would be required to turn to the left from a heading of 120° to a heading of 330°?

2 minutes, 20 secs

17
BL Which is the correct sequence for recovery from a spiraling, nose-low, increasing airspeed, unusual flight attitude?

Reduce power, correct the bank attitude, and raise the nose to a level attitude.

18
BL When a pilot tries to recover from the unusual attitude without attitude indicator, approximate level pitch attitude is reached when the

airspeed and altimeter stop their movement and the VSI moving back to 0.

19
BL To recover from the unusual attitude without attitude indicator what instruments a pilot must use for the best pitch information?

Airspeed, VSI, and altimeter.
