Sample ANAC Private Pilot Helicopter (PPH) Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your ANAC Private Pilot Helicopter (PPH) exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Under RAAC 61.520, which statement correctly describes the minimum total helicopter flight time for a Private Pilot Helicopter applicant?

A.25 hours

B.40 hours, reduced to 35 only when the complete recognized course is conducted by a Type III CIAC

C.50 hours

D.60 hours

Explanation: RAAC 61.520 sets 40 hours as the normal helicopter minimum and permits 35 hours when the applicant completes the full recognized course at a Type III CIAC. Required dual, solo, cross-country, night, and other approved training elements still apply.

2Under RAAC 61.520, how is prior airplane-pilot experience credited toward the total helicopter hours for a PPH applicant?

A.Any PPA license automatically reduces the helicopter minimum to 30 hours

B.Five hours of credit at 100 or more airplane hours, or 10 hours at 500 or more airplane hours, with a maximum reduction of 10 hours

C.Twenty hours of credit for any airplane experience

D.All airplane hours count one-for-one toward the helicopter minimum

Explanation: RAAC 61.520 credits 5 hours when the applicant has at least 100 airplane hours and 10 hours when the applicant has at least 500 airplane hours. Credits reduce only the total-hours requirement, and the maximum reduction is 10 hours; merely holding a PPA license does not create a blanket 30-hour helicopter pathway.

3Under RAAC 61.520, what are the minimum dual-instruction and solo-flight components for PPH certification?

A.15 hours dual instruction and 5 hours solo flight

B.20 hours dual instruction and 10 hours solo flight

C.25 hours dual instruction and 15 hours solo flight

D.30 hours dual instruction and 10 hours solo flight

Explanation: RAAC 61.520 requires at least 20 hours of dual instruction and 10 hours of solo daytime helicopter flight, including at least 5 solo cross-country hours.

4Under RAAC 61.520, what distance and landing requirements apply to the qualifying PPH cross-country flight?

A.At least 50 NM total distance with a landing at 1 other aerodrome

B.At least 100 NM total distance with full-stop landings at 2 different aerodromes or heliports

C.At least 150 NM total distance with full-stop landings at 3 different aerodromes

D.At least 200 NM total distance with at least 1 intermediate fueling stop

Explanation: RAAC 61.520 requires a cross-country flight of at least 100 NM (180 km), with two full-stop landings at two different aerodromes.

5Which assessment sequence must a PPH applicant complete under RAAC 61.505 and ANAC's TCEXAM process?

A.Only a flight-school attendance certificate; no examinations are required

B.A theoretical-knowledge examination followed by a flight-proficiency test that includes an oral component

C.Only an online English-language multiple-choice examination

D.Only a medical examination and ten solo landings

Explanation: RAAC 61.505 requires the applicant to pass the theoretical-knowledge examination and a flight-proficiency test, including the applicable oral examination. The ANAC TCEXAM theory component is therefore only one part of the licensing assessment.

6Under RAAC Parte 67 (Normas Médicas Aeronáuticas), what class of Aeronautical Medical Certificate (Certificado Médico Aeronáutico — CMA) is required to exercise the privileges of a Private Pilot Helicopter (PPH) license?

A.CMA Clase 1

B.CMA Clase 2

C.CMA Clase 3

D.CMA Clase 4

Explanation: Under RAAC Parte 67, applicants and holders of a Private Pilot License (PPA/PPH) must hold a valid Certificado Médico Aeronáutico Clase 2 (CMA Clase 2). CMA Clase 1 is reserved for commercial and airline transport pilots, while CMA Clase 3 is for air traffic controllers.

7What score does ANAC require to pass its 100-question TCEXAM theoretical examination for PPH?

A.60%

B.70%

C.75% overall and in each applicable knowledge area

D.90%

Explanation: ANAC states that TCEXAM draws 100 questions and requires 75% correct answers. RAAC 61.085 also requires at least 75% overall and in each applicable knowledge area.

8For a direct helicopter VFR flight with no alternate leg in the calculation, what does RAAC 91 Appendix H require in addition to fuel to reach the destination?

A.Only 15 minutes at any power setting

B.Twenty minutes at best-range speed plus 10% of the planned flight time, together with contingency fuel

C.Thirty minutes at maximum continuous power, with no contingency allowance

D.Forty-five minutes at normal cruise and no other planning allowance

Explanation: RAAC 91.151 directs helicopter fuel planning to Appendix H. For the direct-destination VFR case, Appendix H requires fuel to the destination, then 20 minutes at best-range speed plus 10% of planned flight time, and additional fuel for contingencies.

9When the helicopter VFR fuel plan uses a required alternate, which reserve structure does RAAC 91 Appendix H specify?

A.Destination only, with no fuel for the alternate

B.Destination, then the farthest applicable alternate, then 20 minutes at best-range speed, plus contingency fuel

C.Destination plus a fixed 45-minute reserve, regardless of alternate distance

D.The nearest alternate only, with no final reserve

Explanation: Appendix H's alternate case requires fuel to the destination, then to the farthest applicable alternate, followed by 20 minutes at best-range speed, plus additional contingency fuel. It does not publish a separate 30-minute night-VFR helicopter rule.

10Under RAAC Parte 91.155, what are the basic VFR weather minimums for helicopters operating in uncontrolled airspace (Class G) at or below 3,000 ft AMSL or 1,000 ft AGL?

A.Flight visibility of at least 5 km and 1,500 meters horizontal cloud clearance

B.Flight visibility of at least 1,000 meters (1 km), remaining clear of clouds, at an airspeed allowing adequate time to see other traffic or obstacles

C.Flight visibility of at least 3 km and 500 ft vertical cloud separation

D.Flight visibility of at least 8 km with no cloud ceiling restrictions

Explanation: Under RAAC Parte 91.155, helicopters operating in Class G uncontrolled airspace at or below 1,000 ft AGL (or 3,000 ft AMSL) may operate with a reduced flight visibility down to 1,000 meters and remaining clear of clouds (libre de nubes), provided the helicopter is operated at a speed that gives the pilot adequate opportunity to observe other traffic or obstacles to avoid a collision.
