1 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Private Pilot (15 questions) Unit 3a: Airports, Air Traffic Control, and Airspace 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 Learning Statement Code: PLT141 The numbers 9 and 27 on a runway indicate that the runway is oriented approximately 009 and 027 true. 090 and 270 true. 090 and 270 magnetic. [2] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT077 (Refer to Figure 49.) What is the difference between area A and area E on the airport depicted? A may be used for taxi and takeoff; E may be used only as an overrun. A may be used for all operations except heavy aircraft landings; E may be used only as an overrun. A may be used only for taxiing; E may be used for all operations except landings. [3] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT141 (Refer to Figure 66.) Which sign is a designation and direction of an exit taxiway from a runway? J. F. K. Copyright 2010 Gleim Publications Inc. Page 1 Printed for Michael Montefusco

2 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Private Pilot (15 questions) Unit 3a: Airports, Air Traffic Control, and Airspace [4] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT141 When approaching taxiway holding lines from the side with the continuous lines, the pilot may continue taxiing. should not cross the lines without ATC clearance. should continue taxiing until all parts of the aircraft have crossed the lines. [5] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT141 An airport s rotating beacon operated during daylight hours indicates there are obstructions on the airport. that weather at the airport located in Class D airspace is below basic VFR weather minimums. the Air Traffic Control tower is not in operation. [6] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT141 A military air station can be identified by a rotating beacon that emits white and green alternating flashes. two quick, white flashes between green flashes. green, yellow, and white flashes. [7] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT039 (Refer to Figure 51.) The segmented circle indicates that the airport traffic is left-hand for Runway 36 and right-hand for Runway 18. left-hand for Runway 18 and right-hand for Runway 36. right-hand for Runway 9 and left-hand for Runway 27.

3 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Private Pilot (15 questions) Unit 3a: Airports, Air Traffic Control, and Airspace [8] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT077 (Refer to Figure 50.) If the wind is as shown by the landing direction indicator, the pilot should land on Runway 18 and expect a crosswind from the right. Runway 22 directly into the wind. Runway 36 and expect a crosswind from the right. [9] Gleim #: Source: FAR Learning Statement Code: PLT201 Which is the correct traffic pattern departure procedure to use at a noncontrolled airport? Depart in any direction consistent with safety, after crossing the airport boundary. Make all turns to the left. Comply with any FAA traffic pattern established for the airport. [10] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT150 The recommended entry position to an airport traffic pattern is 45 to the base leg just below traffic pattern altitude. to enter 45 at the midpoint of the downwind leg at traffic pattern altitude. to cross directly over the airport at traffic pattern altitude and join the downwind leg. [11] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT147 (Refer to Figure 48.) While on final approach to a runway equipped with a standard 2-bar VASI, the lights appear as shown by illustration This means that the aircraft is above the glide slope. below the glide slope. on the glide slope.

4 Gleim FAA Test Prep: Private Pilot (15 questions) Unit 3a: Airports, Air Traffic Control, and Airspace [12] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT147 A slightly high glide slope indication from a precision approach path indicator is four white lights. three white lights and one red light. two white lights and two red lights. [13] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT509 The greatest vortex strength occurs when the generating aircraft is light, dirty, and fast. heavy, dirty, and fast. heavy, clean, and slow. [14] Gleim #: Source: AFH Chap Learning Statement Code: PLT119 During a night flight, you observe steady red and green lights ahead and at the same altitude. What is the general direction of movement of the other aircraft? The other aircraft is crossing to the left. The other aircraft is flying away from you. The other aircraft is approaching head-on. [15] Gleim #: Source: AIM Para Learning Statement Code: PLT502 If instructed by ground control to taxi to Runway 9, the pilot may proceed via taxiways and across runways to, but not onto, Runway 9. to the next intersecting runway where further clearance is required. via taxiways and across runways to Runway 9, where an immediate takeoff may be made.
