Sample Navigation questions with answers

Three questions from the free preview. Think of your answer first, then open the explanation.

  1. 1.Which pressures do the ADIRU and SAARU use to calculate airspeed?

    • A.Pitot pressure only
    • B.Pitot and static pressure
    • C.Static pressure only
    Show answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B. Pitot and static pressure

    Airspeed comes from the difference between pitot and static pressure. Ref AMM 34-11-00.

  2. 2.Where does the 777 pitot-static system get static pressure?

    • A.Static ports on the engine cowls
    • B.Flush static ports on the fuselage
    • C.Static holes on the pitot probes
    Show answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B. Flush static ports on the fuselage

    Static pressure comes from flush static ports on the fuselage. Ref AMM 34-11-00.

  3. 3.How are the static ADMs and SADMs connected to the static ports?

    • A.One left and one right port, joined
    • B.All left and all right ports grouped
    • C.Each module to its own static port
    Show answer and explanation

    Correct answer: A. One left and one right port, joined

    One left and one right port are tubed together and then connected to the module, cancelling sideslip effects. Ref AMM 34-11-00.
