¨C) exceptionally permissible to avoid delays.
þD) not permissible and essentially dangerous.

2 The center of gravity has to be located...


¨A) right of the lateral C. G. limit.
¨B) behind the rear C.G. limit.
¨C) in front of the front C.G. limit.

3 The empty weight and the corresponding center of gravity (CG) of an aircraft are
initially determined...
¨A) through data provided by the aircraft manufacturer.
¨B) for one aircraft of a type only, since all aircraft of the same type have the same mass and CG
position.
¨C) by calculation.
þD) by weighing.

4 Loads must be adequately secured in order to...


¨A) allow steep turns.
¨B) prevent excessive 'g'-loading during the landing flare.

¨A) center of pressure.
¨B) stagnation point.
¨C) neutral point.
þD) center of gravity.

6 The center of gravity (CG) defines...


¨A) the point on the longitudinal axis or its extension from which the centers of gravity of all masses
are referenced.
¨B) the distance from the datum to the position of a mass.
¨C) the product of mass and balance arm.
þD) the point through which the force of gravity is said to act on a mass.

10 The required data for a mass and balance calculation including masses and balance
arms can be found in the...

are maintained.

icing conditions inadvertantly, it should be left without delay.

¨D) To visualize the range limitation from the departure aerodrome
