PA-34 220T

 

Q1. What is the Green Arc (Normal Operating Range) for Oil Temperature?

Correct answer is – 100°F to 240°F

Q2. What is the maximum airspeed for manual extension of the landing gear?

Correct answer is – 85 KIAS. Explanation: The POH directs the pilot to reduce power and maintain an airspeed below 85 KIAS before initiating manual gear extension.

Q3. To prevent excessive engine stress, continuous operation should be avoided under which of the following combinations of engine speed and manifold pressure?

Correct answer is – Between 2000 and 2200 RPM avoid continuous ground operation (for 2 blade propeller only) above manifold pressure 32″ of Hg.

Q4. During a gear-up emergency landing, which items should be turned OFF before touchdown?

Correct answer is – Battery, ignition switches, and fuel selector valve controls. Explanation: Securing electrical power and fuel supply reduces the risk of fire following a gear-up landing.

Q5. When does stall warning sound?

Correct answer is – 5 to 10 knots before the actual stall and mild airframe buffeting and gentle pitching may precede the stall.

Q6. Propeller over speed:

Correct answer is – (Caused by propeller governor malfunction & allows the propeller to rotate at full low pitch) Reduce throttle; Move the propeller control to full decrease RPM (do not feather); Check for control availability; Then reduce airspeed; Adjust throttle to maintain 2600 RPM

Q7. Under what condition will the landing gear warning horn sound?

Correct answer is – When the landing gear is not down and locked at low throttle settings. Explanation: The warning horn alerts the pilot to a potential gear-up landing by sounding whenever throttle settings are reduced and the gear is not down and locked.

Q8. During a gear-up emergency landing, when should the throttles be closed?

Correct answer is – Just before touchdown. Explanation: Keeping some power during the approach aids control, but throttles should be closed immediately before touchdown to minimize damage and landing distance.

Q9. What is the maximum continuous power rating of the engine?

Correct answer is – 200 BHP

Q10. Which action is required to manually extend the landing gear in flight?

Correct answer is – Place the landing gear selector in GEAR DOWN and pull the emergency gear extension knob. Explanation: Manual extension requires the selector to be in the DOWN position followed by pulling the emergency extension knob and confirming three green lights.

Q11. Why must fuel be drained from the low points in the fuel system before each flight?

Correct answer is – To remove moisture or sediment and check for proper fuel (Fuel drains are provided to remove any accumulated water, sediment, or contamination from the fuel system and to verify that the correct fuel is present before flight.)

Q12. Under which of the following conditions should the alternate air system NOT be used?

Correct answer is – During ground operations and takeoffs (Alternate air is unfiltered and may allow dust, dirt, and debris to enter the engine. Therefore, the primary filtered air source must always be used during takeoffs and ground operations.)

Q13. To execute manual extension of landing gear in flight

Correct answer is – Maintain speed below 85 KIAS, set the landing gear selector switch to gear down, and pull the emergency gear extension knob.

Q14. Following an emergency gear extension due to a gear system malfunction, what should be done with the emergency gear extension control?

Correct answer is – Leave it in the extended position until maintenance inspection. Explanation: The POH warns that the control should remain extended until the aircraft has been placed on jacks and the hydraulic and electrical systems have been inspected.

Q15. Unfeather (Fine) to Feather (Coarse):

Correct answer is – Nitrogen
