PPL - Aircraft General Knowledge The test consists of 12 questions. You are given 25 minutes to complete. To pass you need to score 75% Login or personal details are not required. Should you desire to download a Certificate of Accomplishment if you pass, do not forget to fill your name (as you want it written on the Certificate), at the end of the quiz. Information transmitted to the cockpit mounted engine oil temperature gauge is provided by a temperature sensor located : within the hot sections of the engine. upstream of the oil cooler after passing through the oil cooler but before reaching the hot sections of the engineThe recommended practice in respect of life jackets for flight in light aircraft over extensive areas of water is that they should be: stowed under individual seats. worn inflated at all times. worn un inflatedElemental to one complete Otto Cycle is that each piston moves: up once and down once. up twice and down twice. up four times and down four time.The gyro of a heading indicator continuously precesses during flight operations and should be regularly realigned with the magnetic compass: when the wings are level in level unaccelerated flight or when the wings are level during an unaccelerated climb. when the wings are level during accelerated flight or slowing down. when the wings are level with all non essential electrical loads switched off.The centre of pressure by design is behind the aircraft centre of gravity which is balanced in straight and level flight by: neither an upward or down ward tail plane force as the aircraft will be in equilibrium the tail plane producing an upward force. the tail plane producing a downward force.If a static vent became blocked at cruise level, how would this affect the barometric instruments during a subsequent descent? Altimeter : remain static ASI : over-read Altimeter : remain static ASI : under-read Altimeter : under read ASI : over-readMinor aircraft maintenance which a private pilot is legally permitted to carry out: must be entered in a log book and certified by a licensed engineer. must be entered in a log book and certified by the pilot concerned. is not required to be recorded.The speed scale of an airspeed indicator is colour coded. The green band is: the caution range (Vne) the normal operating range (Vno) the flap extension range (Vfe)If, on a single engined aircraft, the only alternator or generator fails during flight: the flight may continue normally as the battery will cope with any electrical load. the electrical loads should be reduced to a minimum and a landing made as soon as safely practicable. the master switch should be turned off and the flight continued without electrical power.Differential aileron where the Up going aileron moves further than the down-going aileron is a design feature that helps to counteract: positive aircraft instability. adverse aileron drag. aircraft inertia.All aircraft have prescribed positive and negative 'G' load limits which form part of the Certificate of Airworthiness. If it is suspected that the positive 'G' load limit has been exceeded if only for a short period and by a small amount: primary structural damage or failure could have occurred and the aircraft must not be flown again until inspected by a qualified engineer. the aircraft commander should carry out a walk round inspection on landing and if satisfied with the structural integrity of the aircraft, take no further action no action is necessary as the maximum certificated loading limits are by design 20% below the value of structural failure.The valve which allows oil to either flow through or by-pass a serviceable engine oil cooler is: temperature activated manually activated. pressure activatedyou can go back for a final check or press SUBMIT to validate.
