PERFORMANCE 3 TEO 2

If severe turbulence is encountered, which procedure is recommended?. Maintain a constant altitude. Maintain a constant attitude. Maintain constant airspeed and altitude.

The most important restriction to the operation of turbojet or turboprop engines is. limiting compressor speed. limiting exhaust gas temperature. limiting torque.

Which type of compressor stall has the greatest potential for severe engine damage?. Intermittent “backfire” stall. Transient “backfire” stall. Steady, continuous flow reversal stall.

Where is the critical altitude of a superchargedreciprocating engine?. The highest altitude at which a desired manifold pressure can be obtained. Highest altitude where the mixture can be leaned to best power ratio. The altitude at which maximum allowable BMEP can be obtained.

How should reverse thrust propellers be used during landing for maximum effectiveness in stopping?. Gradually increase reverse power to maximum as rollout speed decreases. Use maximum reverse power as soon as possible after touchdown. Select reverse-pitch after landing and use idle power setting of the engines.

What effect will an increase in altitude have upon the available equivalent shaft horsepower (ESHP) of a turboprop engine?. Lower air density and engine mass flow will cause a decrease in power. Higher propeller efficiency will cause an increase in usable power (ESHP) and thrust. Power will remain the same but propeller efficiency will decrease.

You touchdown long with a speed of 145 knots on a 9,001 foot runway and the braking is not working, soyou decide to takeoff and climb out. The engines require 5 seconds to spool up and then the airplane requires 10 seconds of acceleration time to lift off again. The 5,000 foot marker flashes by. Do you have enough runway to lift off? (Use 132 knots for the average groundspeed.). Yes, there will be a margin of 850 feet and almost 3 seconds of decision time. Yes, there will be a margin of 2,001 feet and almost 5 seconds of decision time. No, the runway is 1,340 feet too short and my decision is about 6 seconds too late.

What action is appropriate when encountering the first ripple of reported clear air turbulence (CAT)?. Extend flaps to decrease wing loading. Extend gear to provide more drag and increase stability. Adjust airspeed to that recommended for rough air.

What prevents turbine engines from developing compressor stalls?. Deice valves-fuel heat. TKS system. Compressor bleed valves.

What is controlled by the waste gate of a turbocharged-reciprocating engine?. Supercharger gear ratio. Exhaust gas discharge. Throttle opening.

What indicates that a compressor stall has developed and become steady?. Strong vibrations and loud roar. Occasional loud “bang” and flow reversal. Complete loss of power with severe reduction in airspeed.

Under normal operating conditions, which combination of MAP and RPM produce the most severe wear, fatigue, and damage to high performance reciprocating engines?. High RPM and low MAP. Low RPM and high MAP. High RPM and high MAP.

Which place in the turbojet engine is subjected to the highest temperature?. Compressor discharge. Fuel spray nozzles. Turbine inlet.

A commercial operator plans to ferry a large, fourengine, reciprocating-engine- powered airplane from one facility to another to repair an inoperative engine. Which is an operational requirement for the three-engine flight?. The gross weight at takeoff may not exceed 75 percent of the maximum certificated gross weight. Weather conditions at the takeoff and destination airports must be VFR. The computed takeoff distance to reach V1 must not exceed 70 percent of the effective runway length.

What effect, if any, will landing at a higher-thanrecommended touchdown speed have on hydroplaning?. No effect on hydroplaning, but increases landing roll. Reduces hydroplaning potential if heavy braking is applied. Increases hydroplaning potential regardless of braking.

Which condition reduces the required runway for takeoff?. Higher-than-recommended airspeed before rotation. Lower-than-standard air density. Increased headwind component.

Which part(s) in the turbojet engine is subjected to the high temperatures and severe centrifugal forces?. Turbine wheel(s). Turbine vanes. Compressor rotor(s) or impeller(s).

Maximum range performance of a turbojet aircraft is obtained by which procedure as aircraft weight reduces?. Increasing speed or altitude. Increasing altitude or decreasing speed. Increasing speed or decreasing altitude.

What is an area identified by the term “stopway”?. An area, at least the same width as the runway, capable of supporting an airplane during a normal takeoff. An area designated for use in decelerating an aborted takeoff. An area, not as wide as the runway, capable of supporting an airplane during a normal takeoff.

How are turbine engines classified?. The type of compressor or combination of compressors they use. The method in which the air/fuel mixture is ignited. The flow of air through the engine and how power is produced.

Which operational requirement must be observed when ferrying an air carrier airplane when one of its three turbine engines is inoperative?. The weather conditions at takeoff and destination must be VFR. The flight cannot be conducted between official sunset and official sunrise. Weather conditions must exceed the basic VFR minimums for the entire route, including takeoff and landing.

Under what condition is VMC the highest?. Gross weight is at the maximum allowable value. CG is at the most rearward allowable position. CG is at the most forward allowable position.

When a turbine-engine-powered airplane is to be ferried to another base for repair of an inoperative engine, which operational requirement must be observed?. Only the required flight crewmembers may be on board the airplane. The existing and forecast weather for departure, en route, and approach must be VFR. No passengers except authorized maintenance personnel may be carried.

What is the best method of speed reduction if hydroplaning is experienced on landing?. Apply full main wheel braking only. Apply nosewheel and main wheel braking alternately and abruptly. Apply aerodynamic braking to the fullest advantage.
