3-Maximum weight for take-off is always the ____ of runway limit weight, climb limit weight, obstruction limit weight, and maximum structural take-off weight.
A) Largest
B) Least
C) Greatest correct for temperature, field elevation, and wind
D) Not enough information or no correct answer given
4-Maximum structural take-off weight varies with?
A) Temperature, field elevation, and altimeter setting
B) Flap setting and wind
C) All of the above
D) Not enough information or no correct answer given
5-Using more flaps/slats for take-off will?
A) Increase ground roll and increase climb gradient
B) Decrease ground roll and increase climb gradient
C) Increase ground roll and decrease climb gradient
D) Decrease ground roll and decrease climb gradient
6-Since we know performance figures (weights and speeds) are conservative it is ok to take-off or land as long as our weight and planned speeds are close to the calculated figures.
A) True
B) False
7-How much climb capability is lost after one engine on a twin engine aircraft fails?
A) Less than 20%
B) Less than 50%
C) 50%
D) More than 50%
8-Airport AAA has three parallel runways all oriented 13/31. 31L has 11,150 feet available for take-off, 31C has 9,750 feet available for take-off, and 31R has 9,500 available for take-off. 31R has the largest take-off weights, why?
A) Dispatch didn't calculate the weights correctly.
B) The other pilot or engineer didn't calculate the weights correctly.
C) Poor take-off technique.
D) Obstacles
9-Using maximum engine thrust for take-off will always result in larger take-off weights?
A) True
B) False
10-Obstacle data obtained from two different vendors will match.
A) True
B) False
Hope this sparks some discussion and thought. I'll post answers and short explanation Monday 5/18.
