Sample SHGM CPL(H) Practice Questions
Try these sample questions to review concepts for the SHGM CPL(H) exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 26+ question experience with AI tutoring.
1Does holding a CPL(H) alone establish that a pilot and operator may conduct any commercial external-load operation?
A.Yes, all helicopter commercial tasks are automatically included
B.No, applicable ratings, training, operational approvals and aircraft limitations still apply
C.Yes, if the load is below structural mass limits
D.Only passenger consent is additionally required
Explanation: A pilot licence is one element of operational authorization. The proposed task must also satisfy its applicable aircraft, crew and operator requirements.
2Under SHT-FCL FCL.300, what is the minimum age for CPL licence issuance, distinct from a provider's ground-school admission rules?
A.16
B.17
C.18
D.21
Explanation: FCL.300 specifies 18 for CPL applicants. That licensing requirement should not be presented as a universal age rule for every preliminary training activity.
3What is the principal purpose of a helicopter transmission freewheeling unit following loss of engine drive?
A.Keep the rotor mechanically locked to the stopped engine
B.Allow the rotor to overrun the engine for autorotation
C.Maintain normal engine torque without fuel
D.Lock all rotor blades at zero pitch
Explanation: The freewheeling unit allows the rotor side to turn faster than the engine drive. This prevents a failed engine from imposing its full drag through a rigid drive connection.
4What motion distinguishes cyclic feathering from collective pitch change?
A.All blades receive the same pitch increase throughout each revolution
B.Blade pitch varies with azimuth to control rotor-disc orientation
C.Rotor rpm is changed once per revolution
D.The entire tail boom moves laterally
Explanation: Cyclic input varies blade pitch around the rotor azimuth. Collective changes the common pitch setting of the blades instead.
5A helicopter's torque indication reaches its limit before the turbine-temperature limit during a lift. Which interpretation is correct?
A.The unused temperature margin authorizes additional torque
B.The torque limit remains binding even with temperature margin
C.Only rotor rpm limits matter during lifting
D.The torque gauge may be ignored in a steady hover
Explanation: Engine and transmission limits apply independently. Remaining margin on another indication does not authorize exceeding the torque limit.
6In an unobstructed hover over flat terrain, what does a serviceable radio altimeter reference?
A.Mean sea level
B.The selected QNH pressure surface
C.The reflecting surface beneath the aircraft
D.The destination's published elevation
Explanation: A radio altimeter measures height relative to the reflecting surface below. Its indication is not automatically altitude above mean sea level.
7A 2,400 kg helicopter has lateral CG on the centreline. A 120 kg load is added 0.60 m right of centreline. What is the new lateral CG?
A.0.029 m right
B.0.030 m left
C.0.060 m right
D.0.120 m right
Explanation: Added lateral moment is 120 × 0.60 = 72 kg m. Divide by total mass 2,520 kg: CG = 0.0286 m right.
8A helicopter's fuel tank is aft of its current CG. With no other mass changes, how does burning fuel tend to move the CG?
A.Aft toward the tank
B.Forward away from the tank
C.It cannot move because fuel is consumable
D.Always to the rotor mast
Explanation: Removing mass aft of the current CG shifts the remaining mass distribution forward. The magnitude requires the actual tank geometry and fuel quantity.
9A mission needs an out-of-ground-effect hover. Which performance evidence is appropriate?
A.An in-ground-effect hover chart alone
B.The applicable HOGE chart at actual mass, altitude and temperature
C.The cruise maximum airspeed alone
D.The structural external-load limit alone
Explanation: Ground effect reduces induced power demand near a suitable surface. A HIGE capability does not establish the required HOGE performance.
10A planning exercise uses pressure altitude 3,000 ft, ISA temperature 9°C, actual temperature 29°C, and density-altitude correction 120 ft per °C above ISA. What is approximate density altitude?
A.3,240 ft
B.4,200 ft
C.5,400 ft
D.6,480 ft
Explanation: Temperature is 29 − 9 = 20°C above ISA. Add 20 × 120 = 2,400 ft to 3,000 ft, giving approximately 5,400 ft; use approved charts for actual performance.
