1.
When decelerating on a westerly heading in the Northern hemisphere, the compass card of a direct reading magnetic compass will turn :
a) clockwise giving an apparent turn towards the north
b) clockwise giving an apparent turn toward the south
c) anti-clockwise giving an apparent turn towards the south
d) anti-clockwise giving an apparent turn towards the north
2.
An aircraft in the northern hemisphere makes an accurate rate one turn to the right/starboard. If the initial heading was 330°, after 30 seconds of the turn the direct reading magnetic compass should read:
a) less than 060°
b) 060°
c) more than 060°
d) more or less than 060° depending on the pendulous suspension used
3.
When turning right from 330°(C) to 040°(C) in the northern hemisphere, the reading of a direct reading magnetic compass will:
a) under-indicate the turn and liquid swirl will decrease the effect
b) over-indicate the turn and liquid swirl will decrease the effect
c) over-indicate the turn and liquid swirl will increase the effect
d) under-indicate the turn and liquid swirl will increase the effect
4.
When accelerating on an easterly heading in the Northern hemisphere, the compass card of a direct reading magnetic compass will turn :
a) clockwise giving an apparent turn toward the south
b) clockwise giving an apparent turn toward the north
c) anti-clockwise giving an apparent turn toward the north
d) anti-clockwise giving an apparent turn toward the south
5.
An aircraft in the northern hemisphere is making an accurate rate one turn to the right. . If the initial heading was 135°, after 30 seconds the direct reading magnetic compass should read?
a) more or less than 225° depending on the pendulous suspension used
b) less than 225°
c) 225°
d) more than 225°
6.
When accelerating on a westerly heading in the northern hemisphere, the compass card of a direct reading magnetic compass will turn:
a) clockwise giving an apparent turn towards the north
b) anti-clockwise giving an apparent turn towards the south
c) clockwise giving an apparent turn towards the south
d) anti-clockwise giving an apparent turn towards the north
7.
When an aircraft on a westerly heading on the northern hemisphere accelerates, the effect of the acceleration error causes the magnetic compass to:
a) to turn faster than the actual turning rate of the aircraft
b) indicate a turn towards the south
c) lag behind the turning rate of the aircraft
d) indicate a turn towards the north
8.
Which of the following statements is correct concerning the effect of turning errors on a direct reading compass?
a) Turning errors are greatest on east/west headings, and are greatest at high latitudes
b) Turning errors are greatest on north/south headings, and are greatest at high latitudes
c) Turning errors are greatest on north/south headings, and are least at high latitudes
d) Turning errors are greatest on east/west headings, and are least at high latitudes
9.
In northern hemisphere, during an acceleration in an easterly direction, the magnetic compass will indicate:
a) an increase in heading
b) a decrease in heading
c) a heading of East
d) an apparent turn to the South
10.
At the magnetic equator, when accelerating after take off on heading West, a direct reading compass :
a) indicates a turn to the south
b) overheads the heading
c) under reads the heading
d) indicates the correct heading
11.
Given: True Track 245 degrees, Drift 5 degrees right, Variation 3 east, Compass Heading 242, Calculate the deviation?
a) 5 degrees east.
b) 1 degrees east.
c) 5 degrees west.
d) 1 degree east.
12.
Deviation on the standby compass is?
a) Independent of the latitude of the aircraft's position.
b) Zero on the magnetic equator.
c) Positive if Compass North is to the west of Magnetic North.
d) Dependent on the heading of the aircraft.
13.
Which of the following variables affect deviation? 1. Magnetic latitude. 2. Aircraft heading. 3. Aircraft altitude. 4. Aircraft electronic equipment.
a) 1,2 and 3.
b) 2 and 3.
