B. so warm that all precipitation will be as rain, which is not a problem for this IFR flight. C. very cold, but is expected to be warmer due to sunrise before you arrive at your destination. D. cold near the ground, but warm air aloft (in a trough of warm air aloft), which could cause hazardous freezing rain. E. colder higher in the atmosphere, as indicated by the temperature sounding.

B. likely, but not a hazard because the de-icing equipment on the aircraft can remove it. C. likely, but not a hazard because the aircraft is certified to fly into light icing conditions. D. unlikely, because the precipitation is already frozen (as snow) and will not stick to the wings. E. in the forecast for a range of altitudes that you plan to pass through enroute to your cruise altitude. F. not an issue for this flight.

B. are not a problem, because you will be flying below them. C. will require that you cancel this flight because you are not allowed to fly in clouds. D. will make it difficult to find the destination airport. E. can contain supercooled cloud droplets (liquid water below freezing) that can freeze to the aircraft. F. are not a major concern for this flight. A. not a problem because some of the seats are empty. B. a problem because the total weight (including fuel and baggage) is too heavy if the aircraft encounters light icing. C possibly a problem because you did not calculate weight and balance before takeoff 3 4 Return SaveMedia Comment Attach File Submission Details Grade: 4.2 / 5 Fly C - Step 6 Reasoning - quiz.next Nancy Tse submitted Jan 26 at 1:18pm Add a Comment: 1 / 1 point For this flight, weight and balance are 1 / 1 point Other issues include the following: A. not a problem because some of the seats are empty. B. a problem because the total weight (including fuel and baggage) is too heavy if the aircraft encounters light icing. C. possibly a problem because you did not calculate weight and balance before takeoff. D. possibly a problem if ice accumulates on the aircraft and adds to the weight and changes the balance. A. There is no guarantee that the weather will be good, or will improve, at the cruising altitude of 8,000 ft. B. It is so dark outside that it is difficult to see whether ice is accumulating on the aircraft. C. Even if you decide to turn around and fly back to Yellowknife, you might accumulate even more ice on the way back. D There is no guarantee that there will be a layer of air aloft that will be warmer than freezing 4 5 Return SaveMedia Comment Attach File Submission Details Grade: 4.2 / 5 Fly C - Step 6 Reasoning - quiz.next Nancy Tse submitted Jan 26 at 1:18pm Add a Comment: 1 / 1 point Other issues include the following: A.

There is no guarantee that there will be a layer of air aloft that will be warmer than freezing. E. The tailwind should allow you to get to your destination faster, before too much ice builds up. F. The weather forecast said that you would find good weather, and weather forecasts are usually correct. G. Ice accumulation on the aircraft can increase drag and reduce lift, making it difficult to continue flying. H. There were not any other issues for this flight. 5 Return Save [Show More]
