Operational Manual is:
All 6 questions — Flight & Duty Time Limitations (FTL)
Air Regulations (Advanced) · DGCA ATPL. The correct option is marked on each.
Q1. Operational Manual is:
- A.Prepared by the manufacturer and authorized by operator
- B.Prepared by the DGCA and authorized by operator
- C.Prepared by the operator and authorized by manufacturer
- D.Prepared by the operator and authorized by the DGCA✓
Q2. If you fly into Severe Turbulence which flight condition should you intend to maintain -
- A.Constant Airspeed
- B.Level flight attitude✓
- C.Constant Altitude and Constant Speed
- D.Constant Ground speed
Why: Level flight attitude. Slow to manoeuvring speed and hold a level attitude, accepting changes in altitude and speed. Reference: FAA knowledge-test standard (turbulence penetration)
Q3. To overcome severe turbulence pilot should maintain
- A.Constant flt attitude✓
- B.Constant airspeed
- C.Constant airspeed and attitude
- D.None of the above
Why: Constant attitude. In severe turbulence slow to manoeuvring speed and hold a level flight attitude; accept the changes in height and speed, because chasing altitude overstresses the aircraft. Reference: FAA knowledge-test standard (turbulence penetration)
Q4. To counter turbulence:
- A.Maintain a level flight attitude✓
- B.Maintain heading
- C.Maintain bank
- D.Maintain airspeed
Why: Maintain a level flight attitude (at manoeuvring speed), accepting height and speed changes. Reference: FAA knowledge-test standard (turbulence penetration)
Q5. For the purpose of testing the flight recorder system:
- A.A minimum of one hour of the oldest recorded data must be erased to get a valid test .
- B.A total of one hour of the oldest recorded data accumulated at the time of testing may be erased.✓
- C.A total of not more then one hour of recorded data may be erased.
- D.All the above are wrong.
Q6. If you fly into severe turbulence, which flight condition should you attempt to maintain:
- A.Constant air speed (VA)
- B.Level flight attitude✓
- C.Constant altitude and constant airspeed
Why: Level flight attitude. Slow to manoeuvring speed (VA) and hold a level attitude, accepting changes in altitude and airspeed; trying to hold altitude or speed overstresses the aircraft. Reference: FAA knowledge-test standard (turbulence penetration)
