If anyone can help me find the answers to any of these questions I would not only say you da man, but thanks
1. Define Reverse command of the power region?
30. All systems working on an ILS, what transmisometers are you using?
31. With convective activity and lightning nearby the temp is?
66. If RVR minimums are inop, what do you do, or use?
94. How many transponders do you need in RVSM?
This sounds an awful lot like some sort of exam/test....but I'll bite.
1. The region where you need MORE power to fly SLOWER (think of slow flight). Also called Region of Reverse Command.
30. All sytems working on an ILS (assuming you are using an ILS with marker beacons), you are using 3 transmitters (LOC, GS, beacons).
31. What are they asking? If the answer is higher, lower or the same, I believe temperatures are lower near convective activity due to downdrafts (but don't quote me on that).
66. If the RVR transmissometers are inop, you convert the RVR minimums to equivalent value in SM and use those (1SM=5000RVR)
94. Nick already answered it.
Wow, I should have your job love2fly (if you really are a lear 35 FO). If anyone thinks instructing isn't valuable, I knew all but one of those (the RVSM question, the biggest metal I fly is a PA44) off the top of my head.
Not to fast freezingflyboy, i instructed for almost two years and I guess I wasn't really one of those guys who valued knowing dumb questions, like I posted above. You could of looked a lot cooler and just answered the questions and been modest, but chose to look like a cocky cfi
I didn't mean to imply that were never an instructor. Ive just been reading thr forums for a while (weather has been real bad here) and hate to see the guys trying to get around instructing, like its some sort of lepper colony. I'm with you though, if it won't save my ass one day I don't need to know it. But with the exception of #31 up there (who cares what the temp is near a T-storm???), all of those questions are things I think you should know without a whole lot of thought. But ask me what max oil pressure is in the Seminole? I don't know, thats why someone painted colors on the guages!

the disadvantages of a swept wing?
- Produce less lift than straight wings.
- Must fly faster to produce same amount of lift.
- Stall at the tip first.
- Dutch roll. a/c will roll whenever it yaws.
the Advantages of a swept wing?
- Produce less drag
- Increases the airplanes critical mach number, allowing it to fly faster.
- Increase lateral stability.
lol about the oil press limitations freezingflyboy! im with you on that one. since Flight School i hated when folks wanted me to memorize numbers that were indexed in the cockpit already! its like who cares if i remember? all that matters is if i can read it on the gauge!

(Please excuse any spelling)
Since you started off with a "you da man", my inclination was to ignore your question. Where did you get these questions ???
1. What ? Are you talking about use of flex power, max sustained thrust vectoring or the Obama power grid ?
30. Depends on your OpsSpecs
66. Don't have a clue what you're asking.
94. Depends on your company OpsSpecs.
I hope that you were shortening or paraphrasing some of these questions. Otherwise the test writer is an idiot.
Anyway, Ref. #30, the transmissometers you are using (to determine visibility for approach legality) are the ones installed at the runway of your intended landing, assuming that that runway has any working transmissometers installed.
Can you Help????
Say What ??
