Gû PPL - Operational Procedures

1. The document contains 20 multiple choice questions about operational procedures for private pilot license (PPL) examinations. The questions cover topics like airport operations without a control tower, special visual flight rules, satellite airport operations within class C airspace, communication requirements, emergency procedures, turbulence, crosswind landings, and taxiing. 2. Sample questions include requirements for operating under special VFR at night, considerations after a powerplant failure at night, recommended techniques for minimizing wing loads in severe turbulence, and the four fundamentals involved in maneuvering an aircraft. 3. The questions address rules and best practices for flight operations in different airspace classes and weather conditions, as well as procedures for emergencies and adverse

PPL EXAM

PPL – OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES


P66 # 18
1. When approaching to land at an airport without an operating control tower, in
Class G airspace, the pilot should:

a. make all turns to the left, unless otherwise indicated


b. fly a left-hand traffic pattern at 800 feet AGL
c. enter and fly a traffic pattern at 800 feet AGL

P65 # 14
2. To operate an airplane under SPECIAL VFR (SVFR) within Class D airspace
at night, which is required?

a. The pilot must hold an instrument rating, but the airplane need to be
equipped for instrument flight, as long as the weather will remain at or
above SVFR minimums
b. The Class D airspace must be specifically designated as a night SVFR
area
c. The pilot must hold an instrument rating, and the airplane must be
equipped for instrument flight

P64 # 12
3. Which is true regarding flight operations to or from a satellite airport, without
an operating control tower, within the Class C airspace area?

a. Prior to entering the airspace, a pilot must establish and maintain


communication with the ATC serving facility
b. Aircraft must be equipped with an ATC transponder
c. Prior to takeoff, a pilot must establish communication with the ATC
controlling facility

P65 # 17
4. When operating an aircraft in the vicinity of an airport with an operating control
tower, in Class E airspace, a pilot must establish communication prior to:

a. 8 NM, and up to and including 3,000 feet AGL


b. 5 NM, and up to and including 3,000 feet AGL
c. 4 NM, and up to and including 2,500 feet AGL

P65 # 16
5. When approaching to land at an airport with an ATC facility, in Class D
airspace, the pilot must established communication prior to:

a. 10 NM, up to and including 3,000 feet AGL


b. 30 SM, and be transported equipped
c. 4 NM, up to and including 2,500 feet AGL

P260 # 22
6. After experiencing a powerplant failure at night, one of the primary
considerations should include:

a. turning off all electrical switches to save battery power for landing
b. planning the emergency approach and landing to an unlighted
portion of an area
c. maneuvering to and landing on a lighted highway or road
P259 # 19
7. When planning a night cross-country flight, a pilot should check for the
availability and status of:

a. all VORs to be used en route


b. airport rotating light beacons
c. destination airport lightning system

P259 # 17
8. For night flying operations, the best night vision is achieved when the:

a. pupils of the eyes have become dilated in approximately 10 minutes


b. rods in the eyes have become adjusted to the darkness in
approximately 30 minutes
c. cones in the eyes have become adjusted to the darkness in approximately
5 minutes

P259 # 16
9. A pilot is entering an area where significant clear air turbulence has been
reported. Which action is appropriate upon encountering the first ripple?

a. Maintain altitude and airspeed


b. Adjust airspeed to that recommended for rough air
c. Enter a shallow climb or descent at maneuvering speed

P258 # 15
10. Which is the best technique for minimizing the wing-load factor when flying in
severe turbulence?

a. Change power settings, as necessary, to maintain constant airspeed


b. Control airspeed with power, maintain wings level, and accept variations of
altitude
c. Set power and trim to obtain an airspeed at or below maneuvering
speed, maintain wings level, and accept variations of airspeed and
altitude

P258 # 14
11. If serve turbulence is encountered during flight, the pilot should reduce the
airspeed to:

a. minimum control speed


b. design-maneuvering speed
c. maximum structural cruising speed

P257 # 09
12. When diverting to an alternate airport because of an emergency, pilots
should:

a. rely upon radio as the primary method of navigation


b. climb to a higher altitude because it will be easier to identity checkpoints
c. apply rule-of-thumb computations, estimates, and other appropriate
shortcuts to divert to the new course as soon as possible
P257 # 08
13. A pilot’s most immediate and vital concern in the event of complete engine
failure after becoming airborne on takeoff is:

a. maintaining a safe airspeed


b. landing directly into the wind
c. turning back to the takeoff field

P257 # 07
14. When turbulence is encountered during the approach to a landing, what
action is recommended and for what primary reason?

a. Increase the airspeed slightly above normal approach speed to attain


more positive control
b. Decrease the airspeed slightly below normal approach speed to avoid
overstressing the airplane
c. Increase the airspeed slightly above normal approach speed to penetrate
the turbulence as quickly as possible

P256 # 06
15. Which type of approach and landing is recommended during gusty wind
conditions?

a. A power-on approach and power-on landing


b. A power-off approach and power-on landing
c. A power-on approach and power-off landing

P256 # 05
16. A proper crosswind landing on a runway requires that, at the moment of
touchdown, the:

a. directional of motion of the airplane and its lateral axis be perpendicular to


the runway
b. directional of motion of the airplane and its longitudinal axis be
parallel to the runway
c. downwind wing be lowered sufficiently to eliminate the tendency for the
airplane to drift

P256 # 04
17. With regard to the technique required for a crosswind correction on takeoff, a
pilot should use:

a. aileron pressure into the wind and initiate the lift-off at a normal airspeed
in both tailwheel and nosewheel-type airplanes
b. right rudder pressure, aileron pressure into the wind, and higher than
normal lift-off airspeed in both tricycle and conventional-gear airplanes
c. rudder as required to maintain directional control, aileron pressure
into the wind, and higher than normal lift-off airspeed in both
conventional and nosewheel-type airplanes
P256 # 03
18. When taxiing during strong quartering tailwinds, which aileron positions
should be used?

a. Neutral
b. Aileron up on the side from which the wind is blowing
c. Aileron down on the side from which the wind is blowing

P255 # 02
19. While taxiing a light, high-wing airplane during strong quartering tailwinds, the
aileron control should be positioned:

a. neutral at all the time


b. toward the direction from which the wind is blowing
c. opposite the direction from which the wind is blowing

20. Name the four fundamentals involved in maneuvering an aircraft.

a. Power, pitch, bank, and trim


b. Thrust, lift, turns, and glides
c. Straight-and-level flight, turns, climbs, and descent
