1 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Instrument Pilot (20 questions) Name: Date: Circle the correct answer on the question sheets AND fill in the corresponding circle on the separate answer sheet. [1] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Which is the maximum tolerance for the VOR indication when the CDI is centered and the aircraft is directly over the airborne checkpoint? Plus 6 or minus 4 of the designated radial. Plus or minus 6 of the designated radial. Plus or minus 4 of the designated radial. [2] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 106.) The course selector of each aircraft is set on 360. Which aircraft would have a FROM indication on the TO/FROM indicator and the CDI pointing left of center? [3] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para A handheld GPS is not authorized for IFR use. authorized for IFR use under VM authorized for IFR use under IMC until the runway is in sight.

2 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Instrument Pilot (20 questions) [4] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 111.) In which general direction from the VORTAC is the aircraft located? Southeast. Northwest. Northeast. [5] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 100.) What is the magnetic bearing TO the station as indicated by illustration 4? [6] Gleim #: Source: AAH Chap 4 To ensure situational awareness while using an autopilot system it is important to ensure that all navigational databases are current. current navigational charts are required. pilots must verify that the aircraft is tracking the intended flight profile. [7] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 An aircraft which is located 30 miles from a VOR station and shows a 1/2 scale deflection on the CDI would be how far from the selected course centerline? 2 1/2 miles. 3 1/2 miles. 1 1/2 miles.

3 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Instrument Pilot (20 questions) [8] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 105.) If the magnetic heading shown for aircraft 6 is maintained, which ADF illustration would indicate the aircraft is on the 255 magnetic bearing FROM the station? [9] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 103.) On the basis of this information, the magnetic bearing TO the station would be [10] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 As a rule of thumb, to minimize DME slant range error, how far from the facility should you be to consider the reading as accurate? No specific distance is specified since the reception is line-of-sight. Two miles or more for each 1,000 feet of altitude above the facility. One or more miles for each 1,000 feet of altitude above the facility. [11] Gleim #: Source: AAH Chap 4 In an autopilot-controlled system, what device actually moves the control surfaces? Servo. Gyroscope. Vacuum pump. Copyright 2011 Gleim Publications Inc. Page 3

4 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Instrument Pilot (20 questions) [12] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 Which DME indication should you receive when you are directly over a VORTAC site at approximately 6,000 feet AGL? [13] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 100.) Which RMI illustration indicates the aircraft to be flying outbound on the magnetic bearing of 235 FROM the station? (Wind 050 at 20 knots.) [14] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 105.) If the magnetic heading shown for aircraft 3 is maintained, which ADF illustration would indicate the aircraft is on the 120 magnetic bearing TO the station? [15] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para When a VOR/DME is collocated under frequency pairings and the VOR portion is inoperative, the DME identifier will repeat at an interval of 20 second intervals at 1020 Hz. 60 second intervals at 1350 Hz. 30 second intervals at 1350 Hz.

5 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Instrument Pilot (20 questions) [16] Gleim #: Source: IFH Chap 7 (Refer to Figure 103.) On the basis of this information, the magnetic bearing FROM the station would be [17] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para (Refer to Figure 82.) Which is an acceptable range of accuracy when performing an operational check of dual VOR s using one system against the other? [18] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Which indications are acceptable tolerances when checking both VOR receivers by use of the VOT? 001 FROM and 005 FROM, respectively. 176 TO and 003 FROM, respectively. 360 TO and 003 TO, respectively. [19] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para How should the pilot make a VOR receiver check when the aircraft is located on the designated checkpoint on the airport surface? With the aircraft headed directly toward the VOR and the OBS set to 000, the CDI should center within plus or minus 4 of that radial with a TO indication. Set the OBS on 180 plus or minus 4 ; the CDI should center with a FROM indication. Set the OBS on the designated radial. The CDI must center within plus or minus 4 of that radial with a FROM indication. Copyright 2011 Gleim Publications Inc. Page 5

6 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Instrument Pilot (20 questions) [20] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para How should the pilot make a VOR receiver check when the aircraft is located on the designated checkpoint on the airport surface? Set the OBS on the designated radial. The CDI must center within plus or minus 4 of that radial with a FROM indication. With the aircraft headed directly toward the VOR and the OBS set to 000, the CDI should center within plus or minus 4 of that radial with a TO indication. Set the OBS on 180 plus or minus 4 ; the CDI should center with a FROM indication. Copyright 2011 Gleim Publications Inc. Page 6
