The presence of carburetor ice in an aircraft equipped with a fixed-pitch propeller can be verified by applying carburetor heat and noting

a decrease in rpm and then a gradual increase in rpm

An on glide slope indication from a trip-color VASI is

a green light signal

In the Northern Hemisphere, a magnetic compass will normally indicate initially a turn toward the west if

a right turn is entered from a north heading

Which aileron positions should a pilot generally use when taxiing in strong quartering headwinds?

aileron up on the side from which the wind is blowing

What is the definition of a high-performance airplane?

an airplane with an engine of more than 200 horsepower

How are significant weather prognostic charts best used by a pilot?

for determining areas to avoid (freezing levels and turbulence)

In which environment is aircraft structural ice most likely to have the highest accumulation rate?

freezing rain

Every physical process of weather is accompanied by, or is the result of, a

heat exchange

On aircraft equipped with fuel pumps, when is the auxiliary electric driven pump used?

in the event engine-driven fuel pump fails

The presence of ice pellets at the surface is evidence that there

is a temp inversion with freezing rain at a higher altitude
