Now that you've started imagining yourself in the left seat (the pilot in command generally sits there), what is it you are flying?
This is a little confusing and is one of the most common missed questions on the exam.
Category : airplane, rotocraft (helicopter), glider, lighter than air, powered lift.
> categories are broken into Classes: Single Engine Land, Single Engine Sea, Multi Engine Land, Multi Engine Land, Helicopter, Gyroplane, Airship, and Free Balloon.
>>Types of aircraft are more specific, like a make and model of a car.
Think of Class as "Sub Class" meaning underneath the Category of...
First Task: Look online and arrange the Category and Classes. For example, would a Multi Engine Class be under the Category Airplane or Lighter than Air? [hint gliders and powered lifts don't have a class]
Second Task: Give examples of each class and category. For example, what category and class is a Cessna 310 ?
Third Task: Ask brother Knapp what Category, Class and Type of aircraft he has flown. Report on the most unusual aircraft he has flown and describe its Category, Class and Type.
When operating an aircraft the most maneuverable craft must yield to the lesser maneuverable craft.
Fourth Task: Give examples of all the Category and Classes and determine who yields to who. Does it make sense?
First Task: The Multi-Engine Land Would Be Under the Airplane Class Along with the Single-Engine Land
ReplyDeleteSecond Task: The Category and Class of a Cessna 310 Would Be Category: Airplane Class: Multi-Engine Land
Third Task: Brother Knapp if i can Remember Correctly said he Has Flown Single-Engine and Multi-Engine Land, I Cant Seem to Remember the Type Though. For the Most unusual He Said He Hasn't Flown Many Unusual Plane From what he can Remember.
Foruth Task: If I Understude Correctly A Boeing 737-800 Would Be A Multi-Engine Land and Under the Category of Airplane. Now a UH-64 Would Be under Helicopter and The Category of Rotocraft.
