flight mechanics

#2. For an aircraft in level flight, if the wing CP is aft of the CG and there is no thrust/drag couple, the tailplane load must be:

• Aupward
• Bdownward
• Czero
• Dforward

#9. A constant rate of climb in an aeroplane is determined by:

• Awind speed
• Bthe aircraft weight
• Cexcess engine power
• Dexcess airspeed

#15. For a glider having a maximum L/D ratio of 20 :1, the flattest glide angle that could be achieved in still air would be:

• A1 ft in 10 ft
• B1 ft in 20 ft
• C1 ft in 40 ft
• D1 ft in 200 ft
