| 1. Rig fixed wing aircraft (8233) |
| The angle of incidence is that acute angle formed by |
| A - the angular difference between the setting of the main airfoil and the auxiliary airfoil (horizontal stabilizer) in reference to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. |
| B - a line parallel to the wing chord and a line parallel to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. |
| C - a line parallel to the wing from root to tip and a line parallel to the lateral axis of the aircraft. |

| 2. Install instruments and perform a static pressure system leak test (8629) |
| What marking color is used to indicate if a cover glass has slipped? |
| A - Red. |
| B - White. |
| C - Yellow. |
| |
| 3. Inspect, check, service, troubleshoot and repair heating, cooling, air conditioning, pressurization (8537) |
| The primary function of the cabin pressurization system outflow valve is to |
| A - provide protection against overpressurization. |
| B - maintain the desired cabin pressure. |
| C - maintain the same cabin air pressure at all altitudes. |
| |
| 4. Install, check and service airframe electrical wiring, controls, switches, indicators and protective (8851) |
| Grounding is electrically connecting a conductive object to the primary structure. One purpose of grounding is to |
| A - prevent current return paths. |
| B - allow static charge accumulation. |
| C - prevent development of radio frequency potentials. |
| |
| 5. Form, lay out and bend sheet metal (8170) |
| You can distinguish between aluminum and aluminum alloy by |
| A - filing the metal. |
| B - testing with an acetic acid solution. |
| C - testing with a 10 percent solution of caustic soda. |
| |
| 6. Inspect, check, service, troubleshoot and repair aircraft fuel systems (8776) |
| If an aircraft is fueled from a truck or storage tank which is known to be uncontaminated with dirt or water, periodic checks of the aircraft's fuel tank sumps and system strainers |
| A - can be eliminated except for the strainer check before the first flight of the day and the fuel tank sump check during 100-hour or annual inspections. |
| B - are still necessary due to the possibility of contamination from other sources. |
| C - can be sharply reduced since contamination from other sources is relatively unlikely and of little consequence in modern aircraft fuel systems. |
| |
| 7. Inspect, test and repair fiberglass, plastics, honeycomb composite and laminated primary and seconda (8086) |
| Which of the following, when added to wet resins, provide strength for the repair of damaged fastener holes in composite panels? 1. Microballoons. 2. Flox. 3. Chopped fibers. |
| A - 2 and 3. |
| B - 1 and 3. |
| C - 1, 2, and 3. |
| |
| 8. Perform airframe conformity and airworthiness inspections (8303) |
| Where would you find the operating conditions that make a 100-hour inspection mandatory? |
| A - 14 CFR Part 91. |
| B - 14 CFR Part 43. |
| C - AC 43.13-2A. |
| |
| 9. Inspect, check, service troubleshoot and repair hydraulic and pneumatic power systems (8463) |
| Some hydraulic systems incorporate a device which is designed to remain open to allow a normal fluid flow in the line, but closed if the fluid flow increases above an established rate. This device is generally referred to as a |
| A - hydraulic fuse. |
| B - flow regulator. |
| C - metering check valve. |
| |
