If the pitot tube becomes blocked during a descent, the airspeed indicator:
This question has been flagged as being in an exam by multiple students, give it more attention
A
under-reads or over-reads, depending on the air density.
B
over-reads.
C
under-reads.
D
indicates a constant speed.
Explanation
Airspeed is calculated by taking readings from static port and subtracting it from the readings from the pitot tube(measuring total pressure). When blocked the pitot reading will remain constant, in the descent as pressure increases the difference between the 2 values will now start to decrease, meaning the airspeed indicator will show a decreasing speed. So the answer here is under reads.

A
Overread
B
Increase then decrease
C
The reading will stay at that level
D
Underread
Explanation
The Altimeter measures the difference between the fixed pressure in the capsule and static pressure. If the static port is blocked the relationship will not change and the backup static source must be used. Backup static will slightly under read.

What is the definition for updraft or downdraft shear?
This question has been flagged as being in an exam by multiple students, give it more attention
A
The changes in the vertical component of wind vector.
B
The changes in the horizontal component of wind vector with vertical distance.
C
The changes in the horizontal component of wind vector.
D
Windshear resulting exclusively from thunderstorms (single-, super-, and multi-cell) and microbursts.
Explanation
Be carful not to fall into the trap of selecting the answer about thunderstorms and microbursts. It contains the word exclusively. Although yes they do create updraft and downdraft, it is not the only reason for it.

The wake turbulence caused by an aircraft in flight is mainly the result of
1. An aerodynamic effect (wing tip vortices)
2. The engines action (propellers rotation or engine gas exhausts)
3. The importance of the drag devices (size of the landing gear, of the flaps, etc.)
The combination regrouping all the correct statements is

Explanation
Wake turbulence refers to the vortices at the edge of each wing (called wing tip vortices) due to the generation of lift. The higher pressure under the wing "wants" to reach the lower pressure above it. See Principle of Flight topic for more explanations.
