Question

In the eyes of those who create those exams over there, how do such questions help one to be a safe pilot? Does such knowledge (other than for those at Test Pilot School, i.e. Empire, Edwards AFB, NAS Pax River) help us fly the plane after an engine failure at V1, etc? Or turn the autopilot knob smoother?

After lift-off, maxumum bank at initial climb speeds of at least V2 + 10 knots might be 15 degrees and an extra degree of bank angle (up to 30, with 25 degrees preferred) allowed for every knot above minimum flap/slat retraction speeds etc, should require very little theoretical baloney.
