Ground effect is most likely to result in which problem?

Becoming airborne before reaching recommended takeoff speed.

What effect does high density altitude, as compared to low density altitude, have on propeller efficiency and why?

Efficiency is reduced because the propeller exerts less force at high density altitudes than at low density altitudes.

What must a pilot be aware of as a result of ground effect?

Induced drag decreases; therefore, any excess speed at the point of flare may cause considerable floating

What effect, if any, does high humidity have on aircraft performance?

It decreases performance

Floating caused by the phenomenon of ground effect will be most realized during an approach to land when at

Less than the length of the wingspan above the surface

What is ground effect?

The result of the interference of the surface of the Earth with the airflow patterns about an airplane.
