AIRSPEED

#5. The velocity maximum operating (VMO) is a speed expressed in?

• ATrue airspeed (TAS).
• BComputed airspeed (COAS).
• CCalibrated airspeed (CAS).
• DEquivalent airspeed (EAS).

#1. considering the maximum operational Mach number (MMO) and the maximum operational speed (VMO), the captain of a pressurized aircraft begins his descent from a high flight level. In order to meet his scheduled time of arrival, he decides to use the maximum ground speed at any time of the descent. He will be limited?

• ABy the MMO.
• BBy the VMO in still air.
• CInitially by the MMO, then by VMO below a certain flight level.
• DInitially by the VMO, then by the MMO below a certain flight level.

#2. In a standard atmosphere and at the sea level, the callbrated airpseed (CAS) is?

• ALower than the true airspeed (TAS).
• BEqual to the true airspeed (TAS).
• CIndependent of the true airspeed (TAS).
• DHighter than the true airspeed (TAS).
