(809) During an operational check of the fire warning system, you press
- A.
Only the TEST switch
- B.
Both TEST and NORMAL switches
- C.
Only the TEST WARNING ON switch.
- D.
Both TEST ON and TEST OFF switches.
Correct Answer
A. Only the TEST switchExplanation
Pressing only the TEST switch during the operational check of the fire warning system is the correct answer. This is because the TEST switch is specifically designed to initiate a test of the system, allowing the operator to verify its functionality. Pressing both the TEST and NORMAL switches or only the TEST WARNING ON switch would not provide a comprehensive test of the system.

(816) When operating an engine that is installed on aircraft, position the aircraft so the wind is blowing
- A.
At an unnoticeable level
- B.
Directly into the inlet, within 45.
- C.
At a 90ï‚° angle to the engine exhaust.
- D.
Directly into the exhaust, within 45.
Correct Answer
B. Directly into the inlet, within 45.Explanation
When operating an engine that is installed on an aircraft, it is important to position the aircraft so that the wind is blowing directly into the inlet, within ±45°. This is because the inlet is designed to take in air for the engine's combustion process, and having the wind blow directly into the inlet helps to ensure a proper air-to-fuel mixture. Additionally, positioning the aircraft within ±45° allows for some flexibility in wind direction while still maintaining an effective airflow into the engine.Rate this question:

(816) The term trim means to adjust the engine systems for optimum performance per the limits in the technical order (TO). The two methods used to trim an engine are
- A.
Hydraulic and mechanical.
- B.
Hydraulic and electronic
- C.
Manual and mechanical.
- D.
Manual and electronic.
Correct Answer
D. Manual and electronic.Explanation
The term "trim" refers to adjusting the engine systems for optimum performance within the limits specified in the technical order (TO). This adjustment can be done using two methods: manual and electronic. The manual method involves making physical adjustments to the engine components, while the electronic method involves using electronic systems and controls to optimize the engine performance. Therefore, the correct answer is manual and electronic.Rate this question:

(817) When checking the turbine section, you do not measure
- A.
Fan turbine inlet temperature (FTIT).
- B.
Turbine inlet temperature (TIT).
- C.
Exhaust gas temperature (EGT)
- D.
Intake gas temperature (IGT).
Correct Answer
D. Intake gas temperature (IGT).Explanation
When checking the turbine section, you do not measure the intake gas temperature (IGT). The turbine section of a turbine engine is responsible for converting the energy from the combustion process into mechanical energy to drive the compressor and other engine components. The temperature measurements that are typically taken in the turbine section include the fan turbine inlet temperature (FTIT), turbine inlet temperature (TIT), and exhaust gas temperature (EGT). However, the intake gas temperature (IGT) is not typically measured in the turbine section.Rate this question:

(818) Prior to starting the engine when doing an anti-ice valve operational check on an F–16C/D, place the anti-ice engine switch to
- A.
ON.
- B.
OFF.
- C.
START.
- D.
MANUAL.
Correct Answer
B. OFF.Explanation
When performing an anti-ice valve operational check on an F-16C/D, the correct step is to place the anti-ice engine switch to OFF. This is because the purpose of the check is to ensure that the anti-ice valve is functioning properly. By placing the switch to OFF, it allows for a controlled test of the valve's operation without the engine being started.Rate this question:

(818) Which F–16 operational check allows you to start the jet fuel starter (JFS) without advancing the throttle to idle or supplying fuel to the aircraft engine?
- A.
Interface operational.
- B.
Bleed schedule.
- C.
Dry motoring.
- D.
Wet motoring
Correct Answer
C. Dry motoring.Explanation
Dry motoring is the correct answer because it allows you to start the jet fuel starter (JFS) without advancing the throttle to idle or supplying fuel to the aircraft engine. Dry motoring is a procedure used to test the JFS and ensure its proper functioning without actually starting the engine. This check is important for safety and maintenance purposes.Rate this question:
