T-34 AIRCRAFT EXAM

  1. When a conflict exists between the information in the T-34 NATOPS manual and the FAA Model D45 Airplane Flight Manual, which manual takes precedence? ______
  1. What is the maximum allowable gross weight for this aircraft? ______lbs. (FAA Manual)
  1. The baggage compartment is limited to an allowable load of ______lbs.

(NATOPS page 1-46)

4. The PRNFC T-34 is registered in the ______category. Intentional

______and ______maneuvers, except those listed in the FAA manual are prohibited. (FAA Manual)

  1. The T-34 engine is a ___ cylinder Continental model # O-470-4. It is equipped with a Bendix pressure fuel ______system. (NATOPS page 1-14)
  1. Total usable fuel is ______gallons. (NATOPS Figure 1-32)
  1. Unused fuel from the fuel control is returned to the sump tank, which is vented to the ______wing tank. The return flow is approximately ____ gallons per hour at ______speed.(NATOPS page 1-16)
  1. Caution for maximum difference in fuel levels in the two wing tanks is ______gallons. (NATOPS page 1-21)
  1. Engine oil pressure moves the propeller blades to ______pitch; centrifugal force moves the blades to ______pitch. Insufficient oil pressure will tend to cause a propeller ______. (NATOPS page 1-14)
  1. The capacity of the oil tank is ___ gallons plus ½ gal. expansion space. The minimum quantity of oil required for flight is _____ quarts for a cold engine, and _____ quarts for a hot engine.(NATOPS page 1-15)
  1. The 28 volt electrical system is powered by a 75-ampere engine driven generator and a ______volt storage battery. (NATOPS page 1-21)
  1. The generator automatically cuts in at ______RPM and reaches ______rated output at ______RPM. (NATOPS page 1-21)
  1. The landing gear and flaps are ______operated. A safety switch on the ______main gear prevents accidental gear retraction when weight is on the wheels. The safety switch can be by-passed for emergency retraction of the gear, while on the ground, by use of the landing gear emergency retract switch located on each instrument panel. (NATOPS pages 1-23, 1-25)
  1. The landing gear emergency extension system is designed for emergency ______only, and must ______be used to ______the gear. (NATOPS page 1-26)
  1. The five steps in operating the emergency extension system are: (NATOPS Figure 5-4)
  1. ______

b. ______

c. ______

  1. ______
  1. ______
  1. 100% deflection of flaps indicates a flap extension of ______degrees. In the event of an electrical failure, or flap motor failure, no emergency back-up system is provided for operation of flaps. (NATOPS page 1-23)
  1. Pulling the throttle back in the range of ____ to ____ inches MAP sounds the landing gear warning horn anytime the gear is not fully ______. (NATOPS page 1-25)
  1. Normal climb power setting is ______and 2600 RPM. Reduced power setting for climb can cause high engine operating temperatures, due to loss of cooling otherwise obtained from fuel auto-enrichening. (NATOPS page 3-11)
  1. While best rate of climb speed is 81 knots, normal climb is flown at ______knots to provide adequate engine cooling. (NATOPS page 3-11)
  1. For an engine failure in flight, the airspeed which should be maintained for best glide is ______knots. With the prop in positive high pitch, the glide ratio is ______. If an engine failure occurred at 5,000 ft, and there was no appreciable wind, the aircraft maximum gliding distance would be ______statute mi. (NATOPS Fig 5-2)
  1. Minimum run takeoff is accomplished by using ______% flaps. (NATOPS page 3-10)
  1. Departing from a hard surface runway, at 4,000 ft. elevation, on a 75 deg F day, with no flaps, and no wind, requires ______ft to takeoff and climb to 50 ft. (FAA Manual)
  1. For a standard day, clean configuration, zero wind, at 5,000 feet, and a gross weight of 2775, using 2200 RPM and 23 inches MAP (63% power) power setting, the aircraft has a specific range of ______naut. miles/lb, and a true airspeed of ______kts. (NATOPS Fig 11-10)
  1. By using 2000 RPM and 20 inches MAP (48% power) in the situation above, how much further could you fly, assuming you start with full fuel tanks, and not considering the impact of fuel reserve requirements. Distance ______naut. mi, at true airspeed ______kts. (NATOPS Fig 11-10).
  1. Assume that N84639 is being used for a flight with a 190 lb pilot and 190 lb passenger. The fuel tanks are full, oil is at 12 qts, and a 50 lb load is being carried in the baggage compartment. What is the takeoff gross weight? ______lbs. What is the total moment? ______inch-lbs/1,000. Is the aircraft within the safe weight and balance envelope? ______(yes/no).
