1 and 2 are correct.

exemple 280 1 and 2 are correct.

Question 144-13 : When a pilot is facing a problem during flight he should ?

Take as much time as he needs and is available to make up his mind.

exemple 308 2, 3 and 4 are correct.

Question 144-18 : During the pre flight phase in the cockpit the captain notices that his copilot on the one hand is rather inexperienced and insecure but on the other hand highly motivated..which kind of leadership behaviourism is most inappropriate ?

The captain lets the copilot fly and observes his behaviour without any comments.

Since the co pilot is highly motivated and unless the safety of the aircraft is compromised, the captain will boost his copilot's self confidence by allowing the co pilot to operate on his own. as the captain will monitor his copilot's actions, the copilot is unlikely to be dangerous..the captain can invite the copilot to ask for support if necessary. exemple 312 The captain lets the copilot fly and observes his behaviour without any comments.

He should not further discuss this issue but should come back to this conflict during the debriefing.

Ivanivan.i don't smoke but i've seen pilots smoking in the cockpit during a flight. is that allowed thank you....most airlines do not allow pilots to smoke onboard, but only passenger areas are smoke free, according to the regulations..if you are engaged on a private flight, this is the owner's rules who apply... in corporate aviation, some passengers are heavy smokers and they smoke everywhere exemple 324 He should not further discuss this issue but should come back to this conflict during the debriefing.

Primer.why answer 4 is not correct, if you know someone is much safer flight with this person.. please explain ...in most of airline companies you will fly with a copilot or a captain that you have never met before the flight. does it will make the flight less safer no, because you will fly following your company's sop standard operating procedure..furthermore, communication will not always be excellent, even if you know each other. exemple 388 3 only is correct.

2 and 4 are correct.

As the name suggests, briefings are usually short and concise. briefing are standardized departure briefing, take off and emergency briefing, taxi briefing, take off briefing, approach briefing..example for departure briefing this will be a flaps 10 normal takeoff from runway 22, runway heading to 3000 feet. 2700 feet of runway is required with 7100 feet available. in the event of an emergency or abnormality during the takeoff roll, i will abort the takeoff and stop on the remaining runway. in the event of an emergency right after takeoff, i will secure the engine and glide to a landing straight ahead. in the event of an abnormality after takeoff or an engine failure after reaching a safe altitude, i will return for landing on the appropriate runway...a briefing must be understandable by the other crew member s , use simple words...for the question, the best answer is 2, 3 and 4 are correct , but only 2 and 4 are correct is offered at the exam. exemple 400 2 and 4 are correct.
