What does the tachometer show?

• The speed at which the engine crankshaft is turning.

• The speed of the aircraft through the air.

• The direction and strength of the wind.

• The GPS position of the aircraft.

Which two gauges measure the properties of the engine oil?

• Atmospheric barometer and thermometer

• Manifold pressure and tachometer

• Attitude indicator and directional gyro

• Oil pressure and temperature gauges

Why is it important to know the direction of the winds at ground level at an aerodrome?

• Aircraft take-off and land into the wind (headwind).

• So you can determine the air temperature.

• Aircraft land and take-off with the wind (tailwind).

• To avoid the smoke coming off of industrial buildings.
