APS Graduate Quiz: Get Your APS Patch
Welcome to your APS Advanced Graduate Quiz!
Is there any aerodynamic benefit to a skidding turn that outweighs the stall/spin risks of that maneuver?
Yes. It's a safe way to increase turn rate when low and slow.
No. The stall/spin risk is too high.
Skidding your base to final turn is completely safe.
What are Alternate Control Strategies?
They are prevention or recovery strategies requiring the use of other flight controls either singly or in combination to manage the effects of a jammed, failed, or non-responsive primary flight control.
They are alternate methods of controlling the airplane such as auto-pilot or having the captain use his opposite hand to manage thrust.
They psychological strategies to influence the crew's manual handling skills in a positive manner.
At a given speed during unstalled flight, if you increase your G-loading are you pulling stall speed closer to you (i.e. increasing stall speed)?
Only when above Va.
Yes
No
Only when below Va.
If you encounter a spin, if your airplane has a published spin recovery procedure, should you use that procedure instead of the NASA Standard Spin Recovery technique?
Yes
No. The NASA method is always superior.
Does just maintaining 5 degrees nose up on the attitude indicator and maximum continuous power mean you are not stalled and don’t need to take any other action?
No
Yes
