Explain autokinesis, its dangers, and how to avoid it.

Autokinesis is a night illusion where while staring at a stationary light, it appears to move. This is dangerous because you may think you're avoiding traffic but really you're just turning away from a stationary light. Or it could be traffic coming directly at you and you turn the wrong way to avoid it. Avoid this by using peripheral vision and side viewing and not staring at light.

Choose one of the three oxygen system types. (Continuous Flow, Diluter Demand, Pressure Demand) Explain the limitations and the use of this type of oxygen system.

Continuous Flow: this oxygen delivery system uses either an oronasal or a nasal cannula mask connected to an oxygen tank filled with ABO.

It's typically used in smaller aircraft due to the cost efficiencies and less often use. Oronasal is effective up to FL250

Under the "Area of Operation" in the CFI PTS titled "Operation of Systems", select one of the sub-areas and demonstrate instructional knowledge of that sub-area in writing.

Fuel: 0ur aircraft uses a fuel injected system which means it needs a pump to get the fuel from the tanks to the engine. In addition to the sumps and fuel selector you see each preflight, there are filters to ensure the fuel has no contaminants. We have 2 pumps, engine driven and electric, for redundancy and safety. There is a fuel flow transducer to maintain fuel flow to the cylinders and a regulator to control the fuel to air ratio. Then the fuel/air mixture goes to a distributor where it gets divided and sent to each cylinder. Oil: Cools the engine, lubricates moving parts, cleans by moving debris Hydraulics: Our brakes use hydraulic fluid. When you push down on the brake pedals, hydraulic fluid moves from a reservoir through the lines and puts pressure on the brake pads, squeezing them and actuating the brakes.

What are 3 levels of Maslowe's Hierarchy of Needs?

Physiological Safety Self-Actualization

Explain the importance of professionalism in aviation and specifically flight training. Use as many of the FAA desired qualities as you can as well as your own thoughts.

Professionalism is extremely important since a flight instructor will have a huge impact in how their students fly and behave throughout their careers. Showing commitment to your students will emphasize the seriousness of their flight training and hopefully inspire commitment back from them. Communicating effectively both in and out of the plane leads to increased safety and better relationships with students which means better instruction. I would want my students to remember me for being more than a fun or nice instructor, I'd want them to remember how much they learned from me, the safe decisions we made together and that I helped train them to make, and hopefully how I inspired them to be grow and evolve while pursuing their goals.
