Flight Performance and Planning Quiz
Test your knowledge on critical concepts in flight performance and planning. This quiz is designed for aviation enthusiasts, students, and pilots to gauge their understanding of essential flight principles.
- Assess your understanding of takeoff and landing performances.
- Evaluate your knowledge on weight and balance calculations.
- Challenge yourself with real-world flight scenarios and calculations.
To minimize the side loads placed on the landing gear during touchdown, the pilot should keep:
Direction of motion of the aircraft parallel to the runway
Down wing lowered sufficiently to eliminate the tendency for the aircraft to drift
Longitudinal axis of the aircraft parallel to the direction of its motion
If an altimeter setting is not available before flight, to which altitudeshould the pilot adjust the altimeter?
The elevation of the departure area
The elevation of the nearest airport corrected to mean sea level
Pressure altitude corrected for nonstandard
If the tower-reported surface wind is 010° at 18 knots, what is the crosswind component for a Rwy 08 landing?
7 knots
15 knots
17 knots

810 miles
635 miles
645 miles
What would be the endurance at an altitude of 7,500 feet, using 52 percent power?
NOTE: with 48gallons of fuel –no reserve
6.1 hours
7.7 hours
8.0 hours
What would be the approximate true airspeed and fuel consumption per hour at an altitude of 7,500 feet, using 52 percent power?
103 MPH TAS, 6.3 GPH

The CG of an aircraft may be determinedby:
Dividing total arms by total moments
Dividing total moments by total weight
Multiplying total weight by total moments
If all index units are positive when computing weight and balance, the location of the datum would be at the:
Centerline of the main wheels
Nose, or out in front of the airplane
Centerline of the nose or tailwheel, depending on the type of airplane
