This assessment consists of 30 multiple-choice questions. The questions cover aviation subjects studied for the issue of the commercial pilot's licence and general aircraft handling. The questions are answered by pointing and clicking the required answer using the mouse. To move to the next question click on the 'next' button. To go back to a question click on the 'previous' button. To change your answer point and click at another answer. The assessment is not timed. You should expect to take about 20 minutes to answer all the questions.
1)Jet airliners like the 737 or A320 have swept wings. The reason for this sweep back is?
To reduce drag at the design cruise mach number."/>
To enable these aricraft to use less space when parking at airport gates."/>
To counter the aerodynamic pitch down effect at high mach numbers."/>
2)Airbrakes are most effective"/>
On the runway immediately after touchdown"/>
In the landing configuration [Wheels down / full flap]"/>
In a rapid descent from high altitude"/>
3)Some modern airliners are fitted with slotted flaps. The purpose of these slots is to"/
Enable the flaps to be curved into an aerofoil section"/>
Re-energise the upper surface airflow to prevent flow separation at high angles of attack"/>
Increase the wing area and reduce the wing loading on takeoff and landing"/>
4)Dutch roll at high altitude is prevented in modern airliners by? Fitting full time yaw dampers"/> Automatically decreasing the rudder authority above 250kts IAS"/>
Fitting swept up winglets at the wing tips"/>
5)If an airliner is flown faster than its MMo.?
The handling characteristics may change above Mmo"/>
The drag rise due to compressibility will slow the aircraft down"/>
The aircraft must be slowed immediately as any speed in excess of Mmo will overstress the airframe"/>
6)When calculating takeoff performance speeds"/>
Vmcg should be greater than V1"/>
Vmcg should be less than or equal to V1"/>
Vmcg must be
