Hello,
I have a Multi-engine exam coming up and have come across a few questions that I have not understood and have become stuck. These are from an unknown test prep question bank I received (Answers were not included
).
If anyone could give some insight it would be much appreciated. Thanks
1.) "If an engine failure occurs and the aircraft is banked towards the operating engine without any rudder application, the resultant of the operating engine thrust force and the horizontal component of lift will cause__"
A. A slip towards the operating engine
B. A descent and turn towards the operating engine
C. A climb and turn towards the failed engine
D. A slip towards the failed engine
For me, I could not decide between A and D. From my understanding the correct response to this scenario is to apply rudder force WITH bank (2-3deg). Since the rudder part was missing, I am not sure of what the reaction and result would be (same for question 2 A,B).
2.) "To maintain a strait and level flight after an engine failure by not using rudder, the airplane__"
A. Slip towards the operative engine
B. Slip towards the inoperative engine
C. No change at all
D. Slip will be centered
3.) "What is the absolute service ceiling?"
A. The density altitude where Vx and Vy are decrease
B. The maximum density altitude the airplane is capable of attaining or maintaining
C. Which use of best rate of climb
D. The pressure altitude where Vx and Vy are equal
4.)"Absolute service ceiling"
A. Pressure altitude when Vx and Vy are equal
B. Density altitude when Vx and Vy are decrease
C. Max. density altitude the aircraft is capable of attaining or maintaining
D. Which use of best rate if climb
