1. The cantilever wing uses.
A- external struts or wire bracing.
B- no external bracing.
C- the skin to carry most of the load to the wing butt.
A cantilever wing has all its strength inside its structure. The wing spars are built in such a
way that they carry all the bending and forsional loads.
A cantilever wing uses no external bracing.
2. Moisture, mildew, chemicals, and acids have no effect on
A- glass fabric.
B- linen fabric.
C- dacron fabric.
Glass cloth used as an aircraft structural material is not affected by moisture, mildew,
chemicals, or acids. It is also fire resistant.
3. The strength classification of fabrics used in aircraft covering is based on
A- bearing strength.
B- shear strength.
C- tensile strength.
The strength of aircraft covering fabric is based on its tensile strength.
4. Before spraying any finishing materials on unpainted clean aluminum,
A- wipe the surface with avgas or kerosene.
B- remove any conversion coating film.
C- avoid touching the surface with bare hands.
It is important when preparing a bare metal surface for painting that, after it has been
cleaned, you do not touch it with your bare hands. There is enough oil on the surface of
your skin that it can contaminate the surface enough that the finish will not adhere.
5. A well-designed rivet joint will subject the rivets to
A- Compressive loads.
B- shear loads.
C- tension loads.
A properly designed rivet joint has the major part of the load in the rivets as a shear load.
6. A main difference between Lockbolt/Huckbolt tension and shear fasteners (other
than their application) is in the
A- number of locking collar grooves.
B- shape of the head.
C- method of installation.
A lockbolt has locking grooves in pin into which the collar is swaged. A shear lockbolt has
two locking grooves, and the tension lockbolt has five grooves.
7. One of the main advantages of Hi-Lok type fasteners over earlier generations is
that
A- they can be removed and reused again.
B- the sueezed on collar installation provides a more secure, tighter fit.
C- they can be installed with ordinary hand tools.
