Pick up the correct statement from the following:

The speed of the aircraft relative to the ground, is called cruising speed

The speed of the aircraft relative to wind, is called air speed

When wind is blowing the direction of the flight, air speed is less than cruising speed

All the above.

[#]

The fuse large includes

passengers chamber

pilot's cabin

tail of aircraft

all the above.

[#]

Wing loading of an aircraft is

load of the wings

None of these.

[#]

Speed of

sound at 0°C is 1190 km p.h.

sound varies 2.4 km p.h. per degree centrigrade rise in temperature

sound at 0°C is called one Mach

an aircraft flying at 2975 km p.h., is called 2.5 Mach

All the above.

[#]

The depressions and undulations in the pavement, are caused due to

improper compaction of subgrade

impact of heavy wheel loads

punching effect

flexible gears

all the above.

[#]

Airport elevation is the reduced level above M.S.L. of

control tower

highest point of the landing area

lowest point of the landing area

none of these.

[#]

The lift off distance is the distance along the centre of the runway between the starting point and

end of the runway

end of stopway

point where air craft becomes air borne

point where air craft attains a height of 10.7 m

none of these.

[#]

According to I.C.A.O. the slope of transitional surface at right angles to the centre line of runway, is kept

1 in 4

1 in 5

1 in 6

1 in 7

1 in 10

[#]

The landing and take off of the air craft is made against the direction of wind. In no case the centre line of the runway should make an angle with the wind direction exceeding

10°

20°

30°

40°

[#]

10.

Pick up the correct statement from the following:

The distance between the points of intersection of the extreme tangents to the transition curve is kept greater than 7500 m x sum of grade changes at the point of intersection

The rate of change of grade is limited to 0.3% per 30 m length of the curve

According to I.C.A.O. the maximum longitudinal gradient along a runway is limited to 1.5%

All the above.

[#]

11.

The bearing of the runway at threshold is 290°, the runway number is

N 70° W

290°

29°

W 20° N

[#]

12.

According to I.C.A.O. all markings on the runways are painted white and on taxiways

black

red

yellow

green

[#]

13.

The best direction of a runway is along the direction of

longest line on wind rose diagram

shortest line on the wind rose diagram

line clear of wind rose diagram

none of these.

[#]

14.

The bearing of the longest line of a wind rose is S 45° E, the bearing of the runway will be numbered

135°

315°

both (c) and (d)

[#]

15.

Pick up the correct statement from the following:

Minimum turning radius of aircrafts decides the size of the apron and the radius of the curves at taxi-ends

Take off and landing distances for an aircraft, determine the minimum runway length

The length of the normal haul of the air craft decides the frequency of operation

All the above.

[#]

16.

Pick up the correct statement from the following:

Tar concrete pavements are suitable if fuel spillage occurs

Rubberised tar concrete hot blast as well as spillage

Epoxy asphalt concrete resists the jet fuels and provides more elastic pavement

Epoxy asphalt concrete sets in very small time

All the above.

[#]

17.

The length of runway is increased per 300 m rise above M.S.L.

[#]

18.

The length of a runway under standard atmospheric conditions is 1800 m. If the actual reduced level of the site is 1200 m, the design length of the runway is

2360 m

2460 m

2560 m

2660 m

[#]

19.

Two single runways may be arranged so as to have

L-shape
