A. if you take off to the right or left of the wind direction, then the crosswind exceeds the safety limit for this aircraft. B. if you take off facing into the wind, then the headwind requires a shorter takeoff distance. C. Faster airspeed at takeoff is possible if you take off with a tailwind. D. if you take off facing away from the wind, then the tailwind requires a longer takeoff distance. E. your anchor is not strong enough while you are floating away from the shelter of the island. F. (Wind is not relevant for this flight.)

You are concerned about thunderstorms because A. passengers could get sea sick before the plane takes off. B. the waves are large enough to capsize (sink) the floatplane. C. the larger waves create extra drag on the floatplane, reducing its acceleration. D. the waves are breaking (making “whitecaps”) causing sea spray (water droplets in the air) that could get into the engine causing it to stop. E. (Waves are not relevant for this flight.) (Note: the correct answer is not shown.) A. hazardous thunderstorms are predicted along your planned route. B. thunderstorms are dangerous, so you should always be concerned about thunderstorms. C. the Convective Available Potential Energy (CAPE) is large for this flight. D. your onboard weather radar is not working and has been disabled. E. a cold front is approaching later in the day, which might bring bad weather including thunderstorms. 2 3 Return SaveMedia Comment Attach File Submission Details Grade: 3.7 / 5 Fly B - Step 6 Reasoning - quiz.next Nancy Tse submitted Jan 19 at 4:04pm Add a Comment: 0.5 / 1 point 3.

B. fractus clouds have been reported. C. lenticular clouds have been reported. D. your passengers tend to get airsick easily. E. your aircraft is not strong enough to survive in turbulence. F. it is more difficult / exhausting to fly in turbulence. G. (Turbulence is not relevant for this flight.) (Note: the correct answer is not shown.) A. the hills can block your view of other aircraft approaching to land at Lyall harbour. B. the wind can be accelerated and channeled by the valleys — creating wind shifts and wind shear. C. air flowing over hills creates lenticular clouds and updrafts that allow you to soar higher for longer durations. 4 5 Return SaveMedia Comment Attach File Submission Details Grade: 3.7 / 5 Fly B - Step 6 Reasoning - quiz.next Nancy Tse submitted Jan 19 at 4:04pm Add a Comment: 1 / 1 point You are concerned with the topography (hills, valleys, inlets) of Saturna island because Correct Answer: (Note: the correct answer is not shown.)

C. air flowing over hills creates lenticular clouds and updrafts that allow you to soar higher for longer durations. D. air flowing over the hills can create mountain waves — creating wind shifts and wind shear. E. Lyall harbour is too small to maneuver the floatplane while taxiing on the water. F. if your aircraft is too heavy and if you are flying at low altitude toward the island, you might crash into the hills. G. it you can get close to the solid ground of Saturna, then you can take advantage of “ground effect” to take off quicker. H. (Topography is not relevant for this flight.)
