Name:_____________________SCAN Homework #1 (20 Minutes)
Convert the following: 89sm = _____ nm 148 Imp. Gal. = ____ US Gal. 73km = _____ sm 10 qts oil = _____ lbs 21 US Gal. = _____ L 18° C = ____ °F 182 lbs. = ____ kg 1. If your ground speed (GS) is 170 kmph, how long will it take you to travel 200sm? At that rate, how much fuel (in US Gal) will you burn if your engine consumes 72 L/hour? 2. After flying for 4 hours and 15 minutes at 165 mph, how many nautical miles (nm) have you traveled? 3. Given the following information, what will be your GS, wind correction angle (WCA), and magnetic heading (MH) for this flight: True airspeed (TAS) = 125 mph TC = 302° Variation (VAR) = 7°W Wind = 250@9kts 4. Given the following, what is the wind speed and direction? TAS = 92kts GS = 115mph MH = 085° TC = 101° VAR = 8°E 5. Today you decide to fly from airport A (elevation 73' MSL) to airport B (elevation 2100' MSL). Given the following information, determine the total time for the flight (lift-off to touchdown), the total fuel required for the flight (not considering VFR fuel requirements), and the MH for each segment (climb, cruise, and descent). Speed Rate Fuel Burn (GPH) Climb 73KTAS +1000FPM 17.1 Cruise 140KTAS ------- 12.7 Descent 145KTAS -500FPM 8.4 Total Distance: 200nm Cruise Altitude: 9,500 MSL TC = 160° Wind = 280@15 VAR = 15°E
