1	(Refer to figure 18.) A 70 percent increase in stalling speed would imply a bank angle of 70°. 67°. 83°.
2	Which statement is true relating to the factors which produce stalls? The stalling angle of attack is independent of the speed of airflow over the wings. The critical angle of attack is a function of the degree of bank. The stalling angle of attack depends upon the speed of the airflow over the wings.
3	Which statement is true concerning the aerodynamic conditions which occur during a spin entry? After a full stall, both wings remain in a stalled condition throughout the rotation. After a full stall, the wing that drops continues in a stalled condition while the rising wing regains and continues to produce some lift, causing the rotation. After a partial stall, the wing that drops remains in a stalled condition while the rising wing regains and continues to produce lift, causing the rotation.
4	During a steady climb, the angle of climb depends on excess thrust. thrust required. power available
5	As the CG location is changed, recovery from a stall becomes progressively more difficult as the CG moves rearward. less difficult as the CG moves rearward. more difficult as the CG moves either forward or rearward.
6	The tendency of an aircraft to develop forces that further remove the aircraft from its original position, when disturbed from a condition of steady flight, is known as positive static stability. static instability. dynamic instability.
7	If the aircraft's nose initially tends to return to its original position after the elevator control is pressed forward and released, the aircraft displays negative dynamic stability. positive static stability. neutral dynamic stability.
8	What is the effect of center of gravity on the spin characteristics of an aircraft? If the CG is too far aft, spins can become high-speed spirals. If the CG is too far forward, spin entry will be difficult. A flat spin may develop if the CG is too far aft.
9	What is characteristic of the indicated airspeed if the CG is at the most forward allowable position and constant power and altitude are maintained? Indicated airspeed will be less than it would be with the CG in the most rearward allowable position. Indicated airspeed will be greater than it would be with the CG in the most rearward allowable position. There is no relationship between CG location and indicated airspeed.
10	If the CG of an aircraft is moved from the aft limit to beyond the forward limit, how will it affect the cruising and stalling speed? Increase both the cruising speed and stalling speed. Decrease both the cruising speed and stalling speed. Decrease the cruising speed and increase the stalling speed.
