1. If the pitot tube and outside static vents become clogged, which instruments would be affected?Not learned 2. Which instrument will become inoperative if the pitot tube becomes clogged?Not learned 3. Which instrument(s) will become inoperative if the static vents become clogged?Not learned 4. (Refer to Figure 3.) Altimeter 1 indicatesNot learned 5. (Refer to Figure 3.) Altimeter 2 indicatesNot learned 6. (Refer to Figure 3.) Altimeter 3 indicatesNot learned 7. (Refer to Figure 3.) Which altimeter(s) indicate(s) more than 10,000 feet?Not learned 8. Altimeter setting is the value to which the barometric pressure scale of the altimeter is set so the altimeter indicatesNot learned 9. How do variations in temperature affect the altimeter?Not learned 10. What is true altitude?Not learned 11. What is absolute altitude?Not learned 12. What is pressure altitude?Not learned 13. Under what condition is indicated altitude the same as true altitude?Not learned 14. If it is necessary to set the altimeter from 29.15 to 29.85, what change occurs?Not learned 15. The pitot system provides impact pressure for which instrument?Not learned 16. (Refer to Figure 5.) A turn coordinator provides an indication of theNot learned 17. (Refer to Figure 6.) To receive accurate indications during flight from a heading indicator, the instrument must beNot learned 18. (Refer to Figure 7.) How should a pilot determine the direction of bank from an attitude indicator such as the one illustrated?Not learned 19. Deviation in a magnetic compass is caused by theNot learned 20. In the Northern Hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate initially a turn toward the west ifNot learned 21. In the Northern Hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate initially a turn toward the east ifNot learned 22. In the Northern Hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn toward the north ifNot learned 23. In the Northern Hemisphere, the magnetic compass will normally indicate a turn toward the south whenNot learned 24. In the Northern Hemisphere, if an aircraft is accelerated or decelerated, the magnetic compass will normally indicateNot learned 25. During flight, when are the indications of a magnetic compass accurate?Not learned 26. If a pilot changes the altimeter setting from 30.11 to 29.96, what is the approximate change in indication?Not learned 27. If a flight is made from an area of low pressure into an area of high pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted, the altimeter will indicateNot learned 28. If a flight is made from an area of high pressure into an area of lower pressure without the altimeter setting being adjusted, the altimeter will indicateNot learned 29. Under what condition will true altitude be lower than indicated altitude?Not learned 30. Which condition would cause the altimeter to indicate a lower altitude than true altitude?Not learned 31. What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a standard rate turn to the right from a south heading in the Northern Hemisphere?Not learned 32. Deviation error of the magnetic compass is caused byNot learned 33. What is an advantage of an attitude indicator that is displayed digitally?Not learned 34. The Air Data Computer or ADCNot learned 35. Glass cockpit aircraft refer toNot learned
