IR CAAP Exam (300 Questions & Answers)
On the taxi check, the magnetic compass should
A. swing opposite to the direction of turn when turning from north.
B. exhibit the same number of degrees of dip as the latitude.
C. swing freely and indicate known headings. ✔Ans – Answer (C)
swing freely and indicate known headings.
When taxiing, the magnetic compass should be checked to make sure that
the compass card is swinging freely and indicating known headings.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
standard-rate turn to the left from an east heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on east for a short time, then gradually catch
up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
B. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if
the roll into the turn is smooth.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right. ✔Ans –
Answer (B) The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic
heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will indicate the approximate
correct magnetic heading. There are no turning errors on turns from east
or west headings.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
standard rate turn to the right from an easterly heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if
the roll into the turn is smooth.
B. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left.
C. The compass will remain on east for a short time, then gradually catch up
to the magnetic heading of the aircraft. ✔Ans – Answer (A) The
compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll
into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will normally indicate the
approximate correct magnetic heading. Acceleration, not turning, errors
are found in east or west headings in the Northern Hemisphere.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
standard rate turn to the right from a south heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is
actually occurring.
B. The compass will remain on south for a short time, then gradually catch
up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left. ✔Ans –
Answer (A) The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster
rate than is actually occurring.
In turns from a southerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, the
compass leads the turn. That is, it indicates a turn in the proper direction
but at a faster rate than is actually occurring.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass when you roll into
a standard rate turn to the left from a south heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on south for a short time, then gradually catch
up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
B. The compass will indicate a turn to the left, but at a faster rate than is
actually occurring.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right. ✔Ans –
Answer (B) The compass will indicate a turn to the left, but at a faster rate
than is actually occurring.
In turns from a southerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, the
compass leads the turn. That is, it indicates a turn in the proper direction
but at a rate faster than the actual rate.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
standard rate turn to the right from a westerly heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will remain on a westerly heading for a short time, then
gradually catch up to the actual heading of the aircraft.
B. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if
the roll into the turn is smooth.
C. The compass will initially show a turn in the opposite direction, then
turn to a northerly indication but lagging behind the actual heading of the
aircraft. ✔Ans – Answer (B) The compass will indicate the
approximate correct magnetic heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will indicate the approximate
correct magnetic heading. There are no turning errors on turns from east
or west headings.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
standard rate turn to the right from a northerly heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the left.
B. The compass will remain on north for a short time, then gradually catch
up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
C. The compass will indicate a turn to the right, but at a faster rate than is
actually occurring. ✔Ans – Answer (A) The compass will initially
indicate a turn to the left.
In turns from a northerly heading in the Northern Hemisphere, the
compass will initially indicate a turn to the opposite direction. Then the
compass heading will lag behind the actual heading until the airplane
approaches an east or west heading.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
standard rate turn to the left from a west heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic heading if
the roll into the turn is smooth.
B. The compass will remain on west for a short time, then gradually catch
up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
C. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right. ✔Ans –
Answer (A) The compass will indicate the approximate correct magnetic
heading if the roll into the turn is smooth.
If you roll into a smooth, coordinated, standard-rate turn to the left or right
from an east or west heading, the compass will indicate the approximate
correct magnetic heading. Turning errors appear on turns from north or
south headings, not east or west.
What should be the indication on the magnetic compass as you roll into a
standard rate turn to the left from a north heading in the Northern
Hemisphere?
A. The compass will initially indicate a turn to the right.
B. The compass will remain on north for a short time, then gradually catch
up to the magnetic heading of the aircraft.
