Aviation Rules: How Well Do You Know Them?

Being a lowly AF Pilot , and that too, with a strictly Fighters background, I managed a bare 5/10 in this quiz and could finally get 10/10 only after FOUR more attempts.

Pretty poor, I know, but, would you like to check out your knowledge?

Try at: THIS!!


Enjoy!

6/10 on first try, but I am Brit Mil so I don't feel bad about not knowing the US civil regs. The Weather Station Symbol sent shivers up my spine though... memories of student met brief at Shawbury (which appeared to be the only place in the known universe where QFF was briefed daily).

6/10.

Not bad I guess for someone who got as far as Air Experience Flights and throwing up in a Jag T2 during his flying 'career'.

6/10

I got 6/10 as well, and funnily enough, I'm an ex cycle proficiency instructor. Maybe there is a common link here Flarkey!
Perhaps with my knowledge of two wheels, I could have been a harrier ace, and excelled with bicycle type undercarriage landings (now please be kind with any sarcasm that may head my way)

8/10 PPL unused for 25 yrs.

After an excellent landing you can use the airplane again!

An engineer gets 4 wrong and still scores 7/10 - I like that scoring system!

10/10 but guessed on numbers 8 & 9 as I don't pay that much attention to FAA requirements on those two.

8 out of 10, but I'm AAC and haven't flown for 2 1/2 years. I score one point per excuse and voila - 100%!

6/10. I was in the Air Cadets once (briefly). Knew three, the rest were lucky guesses.
