which of the following is a correct response to counteract the feelings of hypoxia in flight
|
promptly descend altitude
|
|
14 CFR 91.17 requires that blood alcohol level be less than
|
0.04 % when piloting an aircraft
|
|
According to current regulations, how many hours must elapse between consuming alcohol and piloting an aircraft
|
8 hours
|
|
Which of the following statements concerning the combination of alcohol and altitude is true
|
altitude multiplies the effects of alcohol
|
|
Hypoxia is the result of which of these conditions
|
Insufficient oxygen reaching the brain
|
|
which is true regarding the presence of alcohol within the human body
|
judgement and decision-making abilities can be adversely affected by even small amounts of alcohol
|
|
It takes how long for the alcohol from one drink to completely leave the body
|
3 hours
|
|
Which is a common symptom of hyperventilation
|
Drowsiness
|
|
As hyperventilation progresses a pilot can experience
|
symptoms of suffocation and drowsiness
|
|
To overcome symptoms of hyperventilation, a pilot should
|
slow the breathing rate
|
|
Which would most likely result in hyperventilation?
|
Insufficient carbon dioxide
|
|
A state of temporary confusion resulting from misleading information being sent to the brain by sensory organs is known as
|
spatial disorientation
|
|
How may a pilot overcome spacial disorientation
|
By relying on his flight instruments
|
|
Which of the following flight conditions would indicate a pilot is experiencing spacial disorientation
|
graveyard spiral
|
|
To scan properly for traffic, a pilot should
|
use a series of short, regularly spaced eye movements that bring successive areas of the sky into the central visual field
|
|
Which technique should a pilot use to scan for traffic to the right and left during straight-and-level flight
|
systematically focus on different segments of the sky for short intervals
|
|
What effect does haze have on the ability to see traffic or terrain features during flight
|
all traffic or terrain features appear to be farther away than their actual distance
|
|
Haze creates which of the following atmospheric illusions?
|
being at a greater distance from the runway
|
|
Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM)
|
systematic approach to the mental process used by pilots to consistently determine the best course of action for a given set of circumstances
|
|
Risk management, as part of the Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) process, relies on which features to reduce the risks associated with each flight
|
situational awareness, problem recognition, and good judgment
|
|
The Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) process identifies the steps involved in good decision making. One of these steps includes a pilot
|
identifying personal attitudes hazardous to safe flight
|
|
An early part of the Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) process involves
|
taking a self-assessment hazardous attitude inventory test
|
|
Examples of classic behavioral traps that experienced pilots may fall into are: trying to
|
Complete a flight as planned, please passengers, meet schedules, and demonstrate the "right stuff"
|
|
The basic drive for a pilot to demonstrate the "right stuff" can have an adverse effect on safety, by
|
generating tendencies that lead to practices that are dangerous, often illegal, and may lead to a mishap
|
|
Most pilots have fallen prey to the dangerous tendencies or behavior problems at some time. Some of these dangerous tendencies or behavior patterns which must be identified and eliminated include:
|
Peer pressure, get-there-itis, loss of positional or situational awareness, and operating without adequate fuel reserves
|
|
what are some of the hazardous attitudes dealt with in Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM)
|
Antiauthority (don't tell me), impulsivity (do something quickly without thinking), macho (I can do it)
|
|
The passengers for a charter flight have arrived almost an hour late for a flight that requires a reservation. Which of the following alternatives best illustrates the ANTIAUTHORITY reaction
|
those reservation rules do not apply to this flight
|
|
The pilot and passengers are anxious to get to their destination for a business presentation. Level IV thunderstorms are reported to be in a line across their intended route of flight. Which of the following alternatives best illustrates the IMPULSIVITY reaction
|
they want to hurry and get going, before things get worse
|
|
While conducting an operational check of the cabin pressurization system, the pilot discovers that the rate control feature is inoperative. He knows that he can manually control the cabin pressure, so he elects to disregard the discrepancy. Which of the following alternatives best illustrates the INVULNERABILITY reaction
|
what is the worst that can happen
|
|
While on an IFR flght, a pilot emerges from a cloud to find himself within 300 feet of a helicopter. Which of the following alternatives best illustrates the "MACHO" reaction
|
He flies a little closer, just to show him
|
|
A pilot and friends are going to fly to an out-of-town football game. When the passengers arrive, the pilot determines that they will be over the maximum gross weight for takeoff with the existing fuel load. Which of the following alternatives best illustrates the RESIGNATION reaction
|
well, nobody told him about the extra weight
|
|
Hazardous attitudes which contribute to poor pilot judgement can be effectively counteracted by
|
redirecting that hazardous attitude so that appropriate action can be taken
|
|
What is the first step in neutralizing a hazardous attitude in the ADM process
|
recognition of hazardous thoughts
|
|
what should a pilot do when recognizing a though as hazardous
|
Label that thought as hazardous, then correct that thought by stating the corresponding learned antidote
|
|
When a pilot recognizes a hazardous thought, he or she then should correct it by stating the corresponding antidote. Which of the following is the antidote for ANTIAUTHORITY
|
Don't tell me. follow the rules. They are usually right
|
|
When a pilot recognizes a hazardous thought, he or she should correct it by stating the corresponding antidote. Which of the following is the antidote for MACHO
|
taking chances are foolish
|
|
What does good cockpit stress management begin with
|
good life stress management
|
|
To help manage cockpit stress, pilots must
|
condition themselves to relax and think rationally when stress appears
|
|
The decide Model is comprised of a 6-step process to provide a pilot a logical way of approaching Aeronautical Decision Making. These steps are:

Detect, estimate, choose, identify, do, and evaluate
|
|
Which of the following is the first step of the Decide Model for effective risk management and Aeronautical Decision Making
|
