Vertical speed indicator
Altimeter
Vertical speed indicator
2
Referring to the airspeed indicator below, identify the V-speeds associated with colored arcs: A

Vno
6
Referring to the airspeed indicator below, identify the V-speeds associated with colored arcs: E
Vne
7
What is Vs0?
Power off stalling speed w/ gear & full flaps.
Stall with everything hanging Out
Stall with everything hanging Out
8
What is Vs1
Power off stalling speed w/ gear and flaps retracted
9
What is Vfe
Maximum flap extended speed
10
What is Vno
Velocity Normal Operation, structural cruising speed.
11
Which important airspeed limitation changes with aircraft weight and is not depicted on the
airspeed indicator?
airspeed indicator?
Stall Speed
12
Pressure Altitude
The vertical distance above the standard datum plane
13
The vertical distance above the standard datum plane
Pressure Altitude
14
Density Altitude
Pressure altitude corrected for non-standard temperature
15
Pressure altitude corrected for non-standard temperature
Density Altitude
16
True Altitude
The actual height of an object above MSL
17
The actual height of an object above MSL
True Altitude
18
Absolute Altitude
The heigh of the airplane above the earth's surface
19
You fly from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure but do not reset your altimeter. If you maintain a consistent indicated altitude, will you be at your desired altitude? Why?
No, because altimeters measure altitude through a change in pressure.
20
What will the effect be on the airspeed indicator if the pitot system becomes clogged, but the static system remains unobstructed?
Airspeed indicator will act as an altimeter, showing an increase in speed during a climb
21
What type of movement is shown by the attitude indicator, but not by the turn coordinator?
Pitch and roll
22
True/false. If you accelerate an airplane in the northern hemisphere on a heading of east, your compass will indicate a turn to the south.
False, to the north
23
Describe the function of the AHRS
It displays information on pitch, roll, and yaw
24
What is true about the indications on the altimeter?
In six seconds, the airplane will reach an altitude of 8,460 feet MSL if it continues to climb at the same rate.
25
Describe how the integrated flight display compensates for a PFD screen failure.
The PFD should automatically switch to the MFD in reversionary mode
26
True/False An enhanced flight vision system (efvs) can be displayed on a PFD
False
