General Quiz

Select the Answer that corresponds to the displayed Question.
incorrect
1.  Which has the more critical center of gravity range, an airplane or a helicopter?




incorrect
2. . What is the significance of the empty weight center of gravity range of an aircraft?




incorrect
3. Why is empty weight center of gravity range not given in the Type Certificate Data Sheets for some aircraft?




incorrect
4.  What is meant by moment in the computation of weight and balance?




incorrect
5.  Why must we consider the category under which an aircraft is licensed when we compute its weight and balance?




incorrect
6.  What is meant by the arm of an item that is installed in an aircraft?




incorrect
7.  What is meant by the datum that is used for weight and balance computations?




incorrect
8. Where can you find the leveling means that are specified for a particular aircraft?




incorrect
9. What is meant by the tare weight that is used in a weight and balance computation?




incorrect
10.  What is meant by undrainable fuel?




Select the Question that corresponds to the displayed Answer.
incorrect
11. This makes it possible to find the point about which the aircraft would balance (the center of gravity).




incorrect
12. In the aircraft flight manual or weight and balance records required by 14 CFR §23.1583.




incorrect
13. For safety of flight and for most efficient performance of the aircraft.




incorrect
14. In the Type Certificate Data Sheets for the aircraft.




incorrect
15. The weight of the fuel and its moment must be subtracted from the weight and moment of the aircraft as it was weighed.




incorrect
16. It must be subtracted from the scale reading to find the weight of the aircraft.




incorrect
17. Multiply the weight of the item in pounds by its distance from the datum in inches.




incorrect
18. No more fuel than the quantity necessary for one-half hour of operation at rated maximum continuous power. It is the maximum amount of fuel used in weight and balance computations when low fuel may adversely affect the most critical balance conditions.




incorrect
19. The maximum permissible weight of a loaded aircraft (passengers, crew, cargo, etc.), less its fuel.




incorrect
20. The aircraft is weighed, and the empty weight center of gravity is computed. These values are recorded in new weight and balance records that are started for the aircraft.
