Commercial checkride in a couple of weeks. Taking it in a C172R with a 6-pack. Do your worst.

You've landed at your destination when you realize that you've overflown the 100 hour inspection AD required for the seat rails of your aircraft. There is no maintenance on the field. Name at least two ways you can restore your aircraft to an airworthy condition.

Check out the second half of 91.409(b)
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
Does being able to exceed the 100 hours by 10 hours apply to ADs aswell?
I-r0ck@reddit
Not unless the AD specifically states that
LeagueResponsible985@reddit
#1 is correct. As to #2 You're not flying aaircraft subject to AD 87-20-03 R2. What else can you do to restore your aircraft to an airworthy condition?
Fabulous-Golf7949@reddit
What are some limitations of the eye?
How long does it take to recognize an imminent collision and what are some visual indications that you are on a collision course with another aircraft?
How will you brief your passengers on the use of supplemental oxygen if you bring it with you? What will you say?
What type of fire extinguisher do you have? Why?
Explain P-Factor and what it is beyond telling me the down-moving blade takes a “bigger bite” of the air.
What hydraulic fluid do your brakes use?
How is oil pressure measured on your aircraft? How is fuel pressure measured?
What is the name of the struts that you have on your airplane?
What makes an aircraft airworthy?
What is the most important step in spin recovery? What causes a flat spin and why?
Where do you most expect to find SLD?
Do you need a ferry permit to fly an airplane with an inoperative ELT to a location where the repair/replacement can be made?
How do you obtain a ferry permit?
What documents must be carried on board an aircraft equipped with an MEL?
How do you recover from a tailplane stall and what causes one?
What type of front is most likely to bring freezing rain? Why?
If your Mode-C transponder fails entirely while en route under IFR in domestic airspace at 6,000’, what action will you take? Can you continue the flight to the destination?
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
Blind spots, sensitivity especially at night, fovea being almost entirely cones and all the rods are around the eye
I do not know an exact time, but if I had to guess anywhere from 5-15 seconds. Some visual indicators include the plane appearing to be still or not moving and at the last moment it rapidly enlarges, called the blossom effect.
I would tell them how to apply the oxygen mask and what to expect when they put the mask on. I would mention the type of oxygen it is.
I would have to go out to an airplane and check
The angle of attack of the downward swinging blade is higher than the angle of attack of the upward swinging blade, producing more thrust and yawing the aircraft to the left. More prominent at low airspeeds and high angles of attack.
It is an oleo hydraulic fluid
Oil pressure is applied to the end of a tube which straightens out a pointer and through linkage reads on the gauge. My plane does not have a fuel pressure gauge.
Oleo strut
It is in a safe condition for flight and conforms to its type and design
I would say power idle is the most important because it is the first step and helps prevent a flat spin, which is caused by both the wings and elevator being stalled, so there is no airflow over the plane.
Cumulus clouds
You do not need a ferry permit for that
FSDO
I know the MEL must be on board and available to the pilots
Elevator up, retract flaps and reduce power, icing on the horizontal stabilizer
Cold front because of the temperature inversion
I will report it to ATC, and yes I can legally continue I would just have to make a lot of position reports
Fabulous-Golf7949@reddit
Pretty solid my man. Think about the SLD again and also consider the question about the freezing rain question again, too.
Also, your answer about MEL’s is true, but incomplete. Just take a look at 91.213 quickly. You need one more document, at least.
Also review the AFH on spin recovery again. Power reduction is not the most important step.
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
Warm front during winters
You would need a letter of authorization aswell, which that and the MEL constitutes a STC for the aircraft.
The AFH states that rudder is the most important control for recovery in a single engine.
BigOwen9@reddit
How do aircraft pressurize?
LeagueResponsible985@reddit
On your quest to become a Commercial Pilot, you skipped the instrument rating. What limitations will be placed on your certificate?
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
I cannot carry passengers for hire further than 50nm or at night
BigOwen9@reddit
What else
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
61.133 only mentions that, you less you mean English proficient.
herknav@reddit
if you own a plane and have a customer/client base of just 3 friends, can you be compensated to shuttle those three friends around?
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
No since I own the plane I would have operational control and therefore this would be an illegal charter
herknav@reddit
what if it’s just one rich friend? and he “wet leases” you with the airplane?
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
Assuming he is maintain operational control and not selling seats then that’s fine
herknav@reddit
does this change your answer?

Teach me how to do a level turn.
For some reason i never practiced teaching the basics and guess what I got asked...
Gloomy_Buy_2085@reddit
Why would you get asked to teach on a CPL ride?
Goop290@reddit
I misread the title thats why
Gloomy_Buy_2085@reddit
Fair enough lol
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
You want to begin by turning the aileron in the direction you want to turn, similar to turning a steering wheel. Once you have achieved the bank you want to turn at, say 30 degrees, you can holt the ailerons in a neutral position and the aircraft will be turning. To maintain level altitude, you will need to add slight back pressure on the yoke, due to some vertical lift being converted into horizontal lift. If you want to maintain the same airspeed, you will als need to add a bump of power, say 50 RPM. To exit the turn, begin the rollout by smoothly turning the ailerons in the opposite direction until wings level, and reducing that back pressure and taking out that bump of power to maintain your altitude and airspeed.
Goop290@reddit
Sorry thought it said cfi ride... otherwise nice lol
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
All good lol
Tuckboi69@reddit
I purchased a new plane and I need you to fly it to my base. Can I pay you to do so?
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
Yea
Tuckboi69@reddit
And what reg allows you to do that?
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
119.1e
Necessary_Use_4729@reddit
Can you go fly without the left phalange
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
Had to look up what a phalange is but assuming you mean the bones I would need a SODA
CluelessPilot1971@reddit
Look it up again
cookie7754@reddit (OP)
Lmao, then I guess probably not
