Whatis Your Aviation Knowledge Ranking? Part 1/5
The formula for Coefficient of Lift is simplified as CL = L/qA. What does the 'q' in the equation stand for?
Question 1 out of 20
I have no idea.
q = Dynamic Pressure = ½ρV² = ½ x Density x Velocity²
q = Dynamic Pressure = ½ρV² = ½ x Fluid Density x True Airspeed²
q = Dynamic Pressure = Pitot Pressure + Static Pressure
q = Lift = ½βV² = ½ x Wing Surface x Velocity²
q = Pressure = ½ρV² = ½ x Air Density x Acceleration²
q = quantum energy²

How come an F-22 Raptor is able to maintain altitude even with a 90° bank angle but a boeing 747 is not?
Question 4 out of 20
Because a boeing is heavier compared to a jet fighter and even with 4 engines, it will not be able to produce sufficient lift to counteract its weight thus unabling it to maintain altitude
Because a boeing is not a jet fighter and does not have the maneuveribility of a jet fighter
Because a jet fighter has a more powerful thrust compared to a 747 giving more accelration and thus producing more lift for it to maintain its altitude
Because an F-22 has a thrust-to-weight ratio of more than 1, which if combined by any lift produced by its fuselage would be sufficient to counteract its weight and maintain its altitude in such a flight condition
Because compared to a Boeing 747, an F-22 has more excess lift as an effect of its powerful thrust enabling it to maintain its altitude in any flight condition
Because jet fighters are agile and powerful, plus it is lighter than a boeing 747. A Boeing is not designed to fly at such bank angles, thus it will exceed its limitations

The mid air collision between DHL Flight 611 and Bashkirian flight 2937 might have been avoided if the TCAS advisory of both aircrafts gave lateral directions (turn left/turn right) & not just vertical directions (climb / descent), why did it not?
Question 6 out of 20
Because the TCAS can only give one information at a time and it also cannot give accurate horizontal directions because it was not set in the correct mode. Plus, an atc instruction was also given and this takes priority over the TCAS
Because the TCAS cannot determine an aircraft's bearing in relation to another aircraft but can only read it's height. It works on the concept of a secondary radar where it interrogates the intruder aircraft for its baro-altitude.
Because the TCAS of both aircrafts were malfunctioned. It should have given both information at the same time.
Because the TCAS will take only the fastest possible solution and put it as an advisory, it this case, since the two aircrafts were already too close to each other, the TCAS advised them to climb and descent instead. It can give lateral directions.
I have no idea
TCAS works on the basis of CPA. At high closure speeds, time and not distance is more crucial. This plus to the fact that a transponder can give a more accurate baro information than bearing is why present TCAS only gives vertical resolutions
The TCAS was wrongly programmed and it should have given both the lateral and the vertical resolutions

Inertial Navigation Systems are open to what error?
Question 11 out of 20
Acceleration Error but only occurs in a classic strapdown INS which does not have Ring Laser Gyros
Calculation and Pilot Error
I have no idea
Integration Drift where small errors in the measurement of acceleration and angular velocity are integrated into progressively larger errors in velocity, which is compounded into still greater errors in position
Integration Error where errors in the measurement of angular acceleration and velocity are integrated into progressively larger acceleration error, which is compounded into still greater errors in position
Magnetic Dip error which occurs when the aircraft is flying at relatively high latitudes where the angle of magnetic dip is extremely high. This is the same form of error which occurs in regular magnetic compasses
Waypoints are not input into the IRS but into the FMS

What do you know about 'Water Injection'?
Question 12 out of 20
I have no idea
It is a system used in jet and turbine engines where water and coolant is sprayed or injected into the compressor to avoid excessive heating to the compressor blades which could eventually lead to a compressor stall or a rotor burst
It is a system where water is injected into the pistons of a piston engine immediately after combustion occurs and allow the piston heads to cool faster and avoid excessive thermal expansion which may affect engine performance
It is an inflight medical procedure where passengers who suffers an acute dehydration due to abnormal cabin humidity or any other reasons are given pure saline or H2O glucose injections to avoid further aggravation of their condition
It is used in many types of engines, where water is injected into the intake air, especially in a jet engine. The effect is not to cool to the engine but instead to cool the air itself and increase it's density as well as to increase the mass
It was used in piston engines and early jet engines to give additional power especially during the takeoff run. Water is injected into the intake air to cool the engine and allow a better engine perfrormance
Water injection is a system used in piston engines where additional to the air and fuel mixture in the carburetor, water droplets are also injected into the venturi to avoid overheating of the mixture and prevent premature combustion

PAED 051212 35010G15KT 9999 VCSHSN BKN080 OVC120 610802 510008 QNH2938INS BECMG 2021 01010KT 9999 VCSHSN BKN060 BKN120 610604 510305 QNH2930INS T05/03Z TM03/16Z. In the TAF above,what does the '610802' mean?
Question 16 out of 20
610802 is a turbulence forecast. The forecast is light turbulence from less than 30 meters up to 2,400m/8,000 ft. 6= Turbulence group 1= Light turbulence 08= Height above aerodrome 02= Thickness of layer
610802 is an icing forecast. The forecast is for light icing from a height of 2,400m/8,000 ft. up to 3,000m/10,000 ft. 6= Icing group 1= Type of icing 080= Height above aerodrome 2= Thickness of layer
I have no idea
It is a code for weather type and time of it forming. 61 = Thunderstorms and shower 0802 = around 0800 for 2 hours
It stands for the date and time of the particular forecast. 6 = month of June, 1 = stand for 1st day of the month 0802 = TAF valid from 0800 to 0200 of the next day in UTC
Its a reference code for its corresponding sattelite imagery and infra-red weather mapping
Those are serial numbers for the forecast. All forecasts have serial numbers so that pilots do not get confused on which forecast is produced for which time and airport.

Is it true that hydraulic accumulators uses either Nitrogen or Helium instead of Carbon Dioxides or oxygen and why?
Question 20 out of 20
Accumulators accumulates energy, so why does it require gasses?
Hydraulic accumulators do not have any gasses in it instead, like any other hydraulic systems, it uses oil or any incompressible fluids.
No it is not true because all the gasses have been used in hydraulic accumulators. As long as it is an imcompressible fluid, it will work in accumulators
No, it is not true as hydraulic accumulators do use Carbon Dioxide as it is fire retardent and can never combust. Oxygen however is never used as it has a totally opposite characteristic than CO2
Yes it is true that Helium and Nitrogen is preferred over O2 or carbon dioxide. This is because Carbon Dioxide can liquify at a lower pressure than those applied to an acumulator (around 800-900 psi) and oxygen may leak into the oil system & combust
Yes it is true that Helium and Nitrogen is preferred over O2 or CO2 because 02 may leak into the hydraulics system and cause a fire while CO2 has a low freezing point compared to Helium or Nitrogen
Yes it is true that Helium and Nitrogen is preffered over O2 and CO2 because both of the latter gasses has a high combustability and may cause a very high fire risk especially when it leaks into the hydraulic oil lines
