Ace the FAA Written Test | 7 Questions on Aircraft Performance from the Private Pilot Written Exam

Описание: This video reviews 7 actual test questions from the FAA private pilot written exam regarding aircraft performance. This video is great for private pilot written test prep. The questions covered in the video include topics such as how to calculate density altitude, how to calculate takeoff and landing ground roll distances, crosswinds on takeoffs and landing, how air temperature and humidity affects aircraft performance, and how to calculate fuel consumption.

Suggested study resources include chapters 4, 11, and 16 from the Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge (PHAK) and Chapter 6 from the Airplane Flying Handbook.

Below is the list of questions from this video that pilots in flight training may see on the FAA private pilot written exam regarding aircraft performance:

0:12 - Question #1: What is the crosswind component for a landing on Runway 18 if the tower reports the wind as 220 degrees at 30 knots?

0:58 - Question #2: Determine the approximate landing ground roll distance at a pressure altitude of 1,250 feet, with 8 knots of headwind and standard air temperature.

2:21 – Question #3: What is the approximate ground roll distance necessary for takeoff assuming outside air temperature of 90 degrees, pressure altitude of 4,000 feet, takeoff weight of 2,600 lbs. and headwinds of 20 knots?

3:36 – Question #4: What effect, if any, does high humidity have on aircraft performance?

4:04 - Question #5: How to determine density altitude given the current altimeter setting, temperature, and airport elevation.

5:43 - Question #6: Which combination of atmospheric conditions will reduce aircraft takeoff and climb performance?

6:22 - Question #7: How to determine expected fuel consumption for a flight.
