A repair, as performed on an airframe, shall mean

the restoration of the airframe to a condition for safe operation after damage or deterioration.

A hung start in a jet engine is often caused by

the starter cutting off too soon.

When we think of aviation safety in a contemporary way, human error is

the starting point.

A person should approach or leave a helicopter in the pilot's field of vision whenever the engine is running in order to avoid

the tail rotor.

What effect, if any, will aviation gasoline mixed with jet fuel have on a turbine engine?

the tetraethyl lead in the gasoline forms deposits on the turbine blades.

The total piston displacement of a specific engine is

the total displaced by all pistons during the revolution of the crankshaft.

The clearance between the piston rings and the ring lands is measured with a

thickness gauge.

The side clearances of piston rings are measured with a

thickness gauge.

The twist of a connecting rod is checked by installing push-fit arbors in both ends, supported by parallel steel bars on a surface plate. Measurements are taken between the arbor and the parallel bar with a

thickness gauge.

When a charging current is applied to a nickel cadmium battery, the cells emit gas

toward the end of the charging cycle.

For sketching purposes, almost all objects are composed of one or some combination of six basic shapes; these include the

triangle, circle, cube, cylinder, cone, sphere.

Jet fuel number identifiers are

type numbers and have no relation to the fuel's performance in the aircraft engine.

Under which conditions will the rate of flow of a liquid through a metering orifice (or jet) be the greatest (all other factors being equal)?

unmetered pressure, 17 PSI; metered pressure, 5 PSI; atmospheric pressure, 14.7 PSI.

Unless otherwise specified or required, aircraft bolts should be installed so that the bolthead is

upward, or in a forward direction.

When taxiing an airplane with a quartering tailwind, the elevators and

upwind aileron should be held in the down position.

A fuel that vaporizes too readily may cause

vapor lock.

The potential difference between two conductors which are insulated from each other is measured in

volts.

If dye penetrant inspection indications are not sharp and clear, the most probable cause is that the part

was not thoroughly washed before the developer was applied.

(Refer to Figure 25.) In a functional and operating circuit, the depicted logic gate's output will be 0

when one or more inputs are 0.

The "SHEL" model is another human factors tool. The goal is to determine not only what the problem is, but also

where and why it exist.

Aspect ratio of a wing is defined as the ratio of the

wingspan to the mean chord.
