What is the distance in kilometers from 49°S 180°E/W to 58°S
180°E/W ?
From position A, 04°N 030°W, an aircraft flies 600 nm due South, then
600 nm due East, then 600 nm due North, then 600 nm due West.
The final position of the aircraft in relation to A will be:
When should a direct reading compass in an aircraft be "swung" ?
A magnetic compass will be most effective at:
Using a Lamberts chart overprinted with a 'standard' grid (aligned with
the Greenwich Meridian) and a Parallel of Origin of 76°N an aircraft at
100°E flying a grid heading of 050° will have a true heading of
On a Polar Stereographic chart two points are plotted: 77°S 066°W and
77°S 041°W. If the scale of the chart is given as 1:5,000,000 at 77°S
the length of the rhumb line joining them in millimetres is:
The usual use for an Oblique Mercator chart is:
An aircraft departs from 80°N 060°W on an initial great circle track of
330°T. Given that its groundspeed is 500 kts use a Polar Stereographic
construction, assuming great circles are straight lines and there is no
scale expansion, to find the position of the aircraft after three hours of
flight. It will be:
For gyro steering purposes a Polar Stereographic chart is overlaid with
a
grid aligned with the
on a track of 120°T would have a grid track of:
On a Lambert's Conformal chart convergency is correct:
On a Polar Stereographic chart the great circle bearing of B (80°S
060°E) from A (80 °S 060°W) is approximately:
On a Mercator chart a rhumb line appears as:
An aircraft on a magnetic heading of 321° with 10° port drift measures
the relative bearing to an NDB as 270°. Variation is 10° East at the
aircraft and 15° East at the NDB. What is the QDM to the NDB?
If the groundspeed is 236 kts and the distance to go is 354 nm the time
to go is:
Required track 070°T, variation 30°W, deviation +1°, drift 10°S. What
is the required compass heading ?
Required track 300°T, drift 8°S, variation 10°W, deviation +4°. What is
the required compass heading ?
If the groundspeed is 135 kts and the distance to go is 433 nm the time
to go is:
An aircraft travels 100 km in 20 minutes. How long will it take to
travel 215 nm?
Fuel

gallon available the aircraft's endurance is:
Heading 145°T, TAS 270 kts, wind velocity 205°T/30 kts. What is the
drift and groundspeed?
The QDM of runway 08 is 083°. The wind, as given by Air Traffic
Control, is 035°/30 kts. Variation is 20°W. What is the headwind
component?
Required track is 260°T, TAS 220 kts, wind velocity 275°T/30 kts.
Variation is 15°W. What is the required true heading and
groundspeed?
Track 210°M, heading 215°M, TAS 360 kts, variation 15° East. If the
aircraft covers 64 nm in 12 minutes the wind (°T) which has affected
the aircraft is:
The required track is 003°T, TAS 130 kts, wind velocity 190°T/40 kts,
variation 15° West. What is the required true heading and
groundspeed?
An aircraft is to land on runway 22 and the wind is given by Air Traffic
Control as steady from 260°. A 10 kts headwind component is required
and the aircraft has a 35 kts crosswind limit. Variation is 20°W.
What are the minimum and maximum wind speeds which the aircraft
can accept?
Given true track 352°, variation 11°W, deviation -5° and drift 10°S the
required compass heading is:
On a 12% glide slope with a groundspeed of 540 kts the required rate
of descent is:
Heading 276°M, an island bears 30° left on the Airborne Weather
Radar. Variation is 12°W. What is the true bearing of the aircraft from
the island?
An aircraft is approaching a co-located VOR/DME at FL390 and is to
descend to be overhead the VOR/DME at FL70. If the rate of descent
is 2,500 ft/min and the mean groundspeed in the descent is 248 kts
the descent should commence at a DME range of:
