Vx and Vy with take off flaps will be ?
Other factors remaining constant how does increasing altitude affect vx and vy in terms of tas Lower than that clean configuration. best explanation ever PDF Why_Vx_and_Vy_Change_With_Altitude. 
Considering tas maximum range and maximum endurance other factors remaining constant Both will increase with increasing altitude. in flight maximum range speed maximum endurance speed are eas use very simple 'ertm' diagram (ertm e as/r as(rectified air speed or cas)/t as/m ach) the eas/ias line vertical tas increase with increasing altitude.

Which of following diagrams correctly shows movement of power required curve with increasing altitude h1 < h2 2106 Is airspeed on ground at which pilot assumed to have made a decision to continue or discontinue take off. tas increases with altitude (from ertm graph) thus curve moves right power required = drag x tas if tas increases drag increases power required increases thus curve moves up. Question 72-12
In a steady descending flight descent angle gamma equilibrium of forces acting on aeroplane given t = thrust d = drag w = weight Is airspeed on ground at which pilot assumed to have made a decision to continue or discontinue take off. a descent a negative climb more drag we have steeper descent angle is drag thrust/weight = sin descent angle drag = thrust + weight x sin descent angle in descent weight vector on longitudinal axis of airplane added to thrust this the reason why airplane needs less energy to descent than to climb. Question 72-13
An aeroplane executes a steady glide at speed minimum glide angle if forward speed kept constant effect of a lower mass on following parameters rate of descent / glide angle / cl/cd ratio Increases / increases / decreases. the forward speed kept constant example if speed minimum glide angle 100 kt when we lower mass we keep 100 kt because we maintain this speed we have to increase our rate of descent to reach 100 kt thus glide angle increases too cl/cd ratio reduced because lift reduced too. Question 72-14
An aeroplane in a power off glide at speed minimum glide angle if pilot increases pitch attitude glide distance Increases / increases / decreases. it doesnt matter whether attitude changed pitch up or pitch down there only one attitude that gives you minimum glide angle so any change from it will decrease distance you glide the glide angle the angle of slope on which aircraft descending therefore a minimum glide angle the smallest angle this slope hence shallowest. Question 72-15
Which of following combinations basically has an effect on angle of descent in a glide ignore compressibility effects Configuration angle of attack. your angle of glide/descent a function of lift/drag ratio all you have to do fly at vmd (velocity minimum drag) your aircraft which means flying at correct angle of attack then of course extending flap or airbrake or change propeller pitch (configuration) will also have an effect. Question 72-16

Question 72-17
Compared with still air effect a headwind has on values of maximum range speed and maximum gradient climb speed respectively that attention on parle la vitesse meilleur angle montée non pas du meilleur angle montée la question du livre qcm institut mermoz indique à la fin la photo est difficilement exploitable «par rapport au sol» mais cela ne change strictement rien la vitesse meilleur angle montée est défini rapport à avion pas rapport au vent ' 0 3457 226 The maximum range speed increases the maximum gradient climb speed not affected. maximum range speed increases when striving maximum range it advantageous to reduce time of exposure to a headwind component increase time of exposure to a tailwind component maximum gradient climb speed the speed not affected ground distance will be reduce with a headwind (ground speed different) the gradient over ground changes but vx speed stays constant the maximum climb angle speed vx (vmd a jet 1 1vs a prop) unaffected wind because object to achieve maximum angle. Question 72-18
The maximum speed in horizontal flight occurs when The maximum thrust equal to total drag. as long as available thrust exceeds required thrust in level flight aircraft will accelerate once drag increases to equal maximum thrust aircraft will not accelerate thus maximum speed achieved when maximum thrust equal to total drag. Question 72-19
With respect to optimum altitude which of following statements correct An aeroplane sometimes flies above or below optimum altitude because optimum altitude increases continuously during flight. as long as available thrust exceeds required thrust in level flight aircraft will accelerate once drag increases to equal maximum thrust aircraft will not accelerate thus maximum speed achieved when maximum thrust equal to total drag. Question 72-20

Question 72-21
The speed maximum lift/drag ratio will result in The maximum range a propeller driven aeroplane. the speed maximum lift/drag ratio (l/d max) will result in maximum range a propeller driven aeroplane for propeller driven aeroplane curve lowest point of power required curve the tas at wich least power needed (as opposed to producing least drag) is therefore best endurance in level flight it also maximum rate of climb speed because gap between power required power available greatest (more power needed above below minimum power speed). Question 72-22

Question 72-23
Which of following factors will lead to an increase of ground distance during a glide while maintaining appropriate minimum glide angle speed The speed maximum climb angle vx. by maintaining appropriate minimum glide angle speed it permits to fly longest ground distance without wind thus only way to increase ground distance to benefit from a tailwind. Question 72-24
Which of following factors leads to maximum flight time of a glide The speed maximum climb angle vx. the wind affects only ground distance to maintain flight as longer as possible you must have lowest rate of descent this rate of descent varies with mass for a heavier aircraft lowest rate of descent speed reach at a higher speed than when this aircraft empty total drag proportional to v² therefore his rate of descent increased. Question 72-25
When v1 has to be reduced because of a wet runway one engine out obstacle clearance / climb performance Decreases / remains constant. v1 has to be reduce because in case of stop on a wet runway we will reduce our speed slower than on a dry runway obstacle clearance decreases (if failure occurs after v1) because from v1 to vr we will gain speed on one engine only by decreasing v1 due to wet runway take off distance to reach our screen height will be increased margin from obstacle will be reduced now our climb performance remains constant because it not affected the value of v1 we are now flying (the question states 'how does v1 affect one engine out climb performance' our climb performance are not affected v1). Question 72-26
Which statement concerning inclusion of a clearway in take off calculation correct The field length limited take off mass will increase. a clearway an area beyond paved runway free of obstacles the length of clearway may be included in length of take off distance available (toda) our maximum takeoff distance limited this condition we must be at 35 ft at end of toda with an engine out the takeoff run available increased we can take off at a later point the field length limited take off mass will increase the acceleration stop distance available (asda) remains same (we are not allowed to stop on clearway this not a stopway) thus v1 decreased because after passing v1 we must be able to take off with an engine out make 35 ft within toda img /com_en/com032 109b jpg in both cases v1 must decrease imagine if you maintain v1 at 100 kt what will happen?. Question 72-27
Which of following factors favours selection of a low flap setting the take off High field elevation distant obstacles in climb out path long runway a high ambient temperature. obstacles are distant we have a long runway low flap setting will increase ground run but increases climb capabilities the use of flaps especially beneficial a short runway with no obstacles or only a low obstacle further away not using flaps beneficial a very long runway with a nearby obstacle the picture below shows choices in a somewhat exaggerated way .
