For Question 51 select "B", "C" or "D" ("A" is selected only as an example)!
51. What does the red line on an airspeed indicator represent?
A) Select a correct answer below. B) Maneuvering speed. C) Turbulent or rough-air speed. D) Never-exceed speed.

53. How do variations in temperature affect the altimeter?
A) Pressure levels are raised on warm days and the indicated altitude is lower than true altitude. B) Higher temperatures expand the pressure levels and the indicated altitude is higher than true altitude. C) Lower temperatures lower the pressure levels and the indicated altitude is lower than true altitude. D) None of the above.
54. Altimeter setting is the value to which the barometric pressure scale of the altimeter is set so the altimeter indicates:
A) calibrated altitude at field elevation. B) absolute altitude at field elevation. C) true altitude at field elevation. D) None of the above.
55. (Refer to figure 3 below.) Altimeter 1 indicates:
A) 500 feet. B) 1,500 feet. C) 10,500 feet. D) None of the above.
56. If it is necessary to set the altimeter 29.15 to 29.85, what change occurs?
A) 70-foot increase in indicated altitude. B) 70-foot increase in density altitude. C) 700-foot increase in indicated altitude. D) None of the above.
57. Under what condition is indicated altitude the same as true altitude?
A) If the altimeter has no mechanical error. B) When at sea level under standard conditions. C) When at 18,000 feet MSL with the altimeter set at 29.92. D) None of the above.
58. What is pressure altitude?
A) The indicated altitude corrected for position and installation error. B) The altitude indicated when the barometric pressure scale is set to 29.92. C) The indicated altitude corrected for nonstandard temperature and pressure. D) None of the above.
59. What is density altitude?
A) The height above the standard datum plane. B) The pressure altitude corrected for nonstandard temperature. C) The altitude read directly from the altimeter. D) None of the above.
60. What is true altitude?
A) The vertical distance of the aircraft above sea level. B) The vertical distance of the aircraft above the surface. C) The height above the standard datum plane. D) None of the above.
