The distance from the datum to the point at which the weight of a component acts.

Radiation fog forms on cloudless nights with only very light winds and high relative humidity when the cold ground cools the air above it to its dew point causing condensation (fog).

Usually occurs inland in valleys and low lying areas (as these areas tend to have more moisture) and usually occurs in a high pressure system.

A Fohn wind is a warm dry wind that blows down the lee side of a mountain.

Initially, the air temperature cools dry-adiabatically (3°C/1000 ft), until its dew point temperature is reached. Condensation occurs as the air is further forced up the mountain range, resulting in the air cooling saturated-adiabatically (generally considered in the mid-latitudes to be 1.8°C/1000 ft). Clouds and precipitation form. When the air mass reaches the top of the mountain range it has lost a significant amount of its water content and so has a much lower dew point temperature.

As the air then begins to descend down the lee slope of the mountain the compressed air is initially heated saturated-adiabatically, and in effect the direct reverse to the cooling effect on the windward side occurs. As the air continues leeward and downward from the mountain range, the air, now no longer saturated, is heated dry-adiabatically.

The resultant wind is dry and warm giving clear conditions at airfields on the lee side of the mountain range.

The Foehn Effect also may be associated with mountain wave activity.

TAS will increase.

For every 1kg of air passing through the combustion chamber, 11kg of air pass bypass the combustion chamber.

Meridians converge from their maximum distance apart (at the equator) to the poles where they meet.

Great circles are the shortest distance between two points and convergency represents the change in direction experienced between those points.

Assuming I'm performing single pilot operations:

• power idle,

• max brakes (and reversers if available),

-maintain directional control using rudder input,

• After coming to a full stop set parking break.

• Inform ATC 'Stopping'.

• Initiate the appropriate process to diagnose the problem (ECAM, NITS DODAR, checklists....).

• When performing multi pilot operations the actions performed by me will depend with my current role: PF, PM and/or CM1 CM2.

A variable pitch propeller provides an optimum angle of attack for the propeller blades for a longer range which reduces fuel usage, fixed pitch propellers only have a certain rpm.

No, there is no P-factor (asymmetric blade effect) as on a propeller-driven aircraft.
