Enough to fly to the first point of intended landing and to fly after that for 30 minutes at normal cruising speed.

What is the specific fuel requirement for flight under VFR at night in an airplane?

Enough to fly to the first point of intended landing and to fly after that for 45 minutes at normal cruising speed.

What action, if any, is appropriate if the pilot deviates from an ATC instruction during an emergency and is given priority?

File a detailed report within 48 hours to the chief of the appropriate ATC facility, if requested.

Which best describes the flight conditions under which flight crewmembers are specifically required to keep their safety belts and shoulder harnesses fastened?

Safety belts during takeoff and landing and while en route; shoulder harnesses during takeoff and landing.

With respect to passengers, what obligation, if any, does a pilot in command have concerning the use of safety belts?

The pilot in command must brief the passengers on the use of safety belts and notify them to fasten their safety belts during taxi, takeoff, and landing.

Which records or documents shall the owner or operator of an aircraft keep to show compliance with an applicable Airworthiness Directive?

aircraft maintenance records

Which aircraft has the right-of-way over the other aircraft listed?

aircraft towing other aircraft

Preflight action, as required for all flights away from the vicinity of an airport, shall include

an alternate course of action if the flight cannot be completed as planned

According to 14 CFR part 91, at what minimum altitude may an airplane be operated unless necessary for takeoff and landing?

an altitude allowing for an emergency landing without undue hazard, if a power unit fails

Except when necessary for takeoff or landing, what is the minimum safe altitude required for a pilot to operate an aircraft over congested areas?

an altitude of 1,000 ft above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft.

When an ATC clearance has been obtained, no pilot in command may deviate from that clearance unless that pilot obtains an amended clearance. The one exception to this regulation is

an emergency

When two or more aircraft are approaching an airport for the purpose of landing, the right-of-way belongs to the aircraft

at the lower altitude but it shall not take advantage of this rule to cut in front of or to overtake another

Which preflight action is specifically required of the pilot prior to each flight?

become familiar with all available information concerning the flight

Your transponder is inoperative. In order to enter Class B airspace, you must submit a request for a deviation from the

controlling ATC facility at least 1 hour before the proposed flight

For a VFR flight not in the vicinity of an airport, the PIC must

determine runway lengths at airports of intended use

In addition to other preflight actions for a VFR flight away from the vicinity of the departure airport, regulations specifically require the pilot in command to

determine runway lengths at airports of intended use and the aircraft's takeoff and landing distance data

If an in-flight emergency requires immediate action, the pilot in command may

deviate from any rule of 14 CFR part 91 to the extent required to meet that emergency

Which is normally prohibited when operating a restricted category civil aircraft?

flight over a densely populated area

Which aircraft has the right-of-way over the other aircraft listed?

glider

in an emergency or if the person is a medical patient under proper care

As Pilot in Command of an aircraft, under which situation can you deviate from an ATC clearance?

in response to a traffic alert and collision avoidance system resolution advisory

You are pilot-in-command of a VFR flight that you think will be within the fuel range of your aircraft. As part of your preflight planning you must

obtain weather reports, forecasts, and fuel requirements for the flight

Unless otherwise specifically authorized, no person may operate an aircraft that has an experimental certificate

over a densely populated area or in a congested airway

Safety belts are required to be properly secured about which persons in an aircraft and when?
