Aviation Simple Easy Trivia

To create lower pressure above the wing and generate lift

To provide a mounting surface for landing gear

To deflect engine exhaust away from the fuselage

To reduce fuel consumption by trapping air above the wing

Vertical speed indicator

Altimeter

Airspeed indicator

Attitude indicator (artificial horizon)

To measure runway length manually

To visually confirm no obvious damage, leaks, or obstacles are present

To practice taxi routes on the ground

To warm up the engines before starting

It increases the required takeoff distance

It only affects landing distance, not takeoff

It has no effect on takeoff distance

It always decreases takeoff distance

Requiring all electronics to be powered on during descent

Limiting passenger movement only during turbulence

No nonessential conversation or activities during critical phases of flight

Switching off cabin lights for night flights

Because it reduces fuel consumption for trailing aircraft

Because vortices can roll a smaller aircraft dangerously if too close

Because it shortens required landing distance

Because it completely cancels radio communications

Increase airspeed or lower angle of attack

Retract flaps fully immediately

Increase pitch to gain altitude quickly

Shut down one engine to balance lift

To permit unrestricted maneuvering near the runway

To ensure safe obstacle clearance and coordinated traffic flows

To allow passengers to see landmarks during descent

To reduce aircraft noise by flying closer to populated areas
