1What does SHT-FCL FCL.200 require as the minimum age for PPL issuance?
A.16
B.17
C.18
D.21
Explanation: FCL.200 sets a minimum age of 17 for PPL applicants. Separate conditions govern training, solo flight and medical fitness.
2An instructor says a helicopter limitation may be ignored because today's flight is only private practice. Which source should govern?
A.The approved RFM limitation remains applicable
B.The limitation applies only to commercial flights
C.The pilot's total hours replace the limitation
D.A passenger's agreement removes the limitation
Explanation: Approved aircraft limitations apply to the operation of the aircraft. A private training purpose does not authorize exceeding them.
3Why is a PPL(A) theory pass not proof that all PPL(H) knowledge requirements are satisfied automatically?
A.The two qualifications have no common knowledge
B.Helicopter-specific courses and applicable credit rules must still be addressed
C.Helicopters have no theory examination
D.Only the candidate's preferred language matters
Explanation: Current SHT-1TBS distinguishes PPL(H) courses and cross-category bridge subjects. Shared general knowledge does not erase helicopter-specific requirements.
4A pilot stares at an isolated light at night and perceives it moving. Which illusion may explain this?
A.Autokinesis
B.A reliable indication that the helicopter is drifting
C.A guaranteed moving aircraft
D.A radio-altimeter error
Explanation: Autokinesis can make a stationary light appear to move when viewed without useful surrounding references. A wider visual scan and appropriate instruments help avoid acting on that illusion.
5What should a pilot do before flying after starting medication that may cause drowsiness?
A.Assume non-prescription medicines cannot affect flying
B.Assess aeromedical fitness with appropriate professional advice before flying
C.Compensate by flying lower
D.Use a short flight as the first test of side effects
Explanation: Both illness and medication can impair performance. Fitness must be established before flight rather than tested during it.
6A student feels confident after several successful flights and stops checking weather escape options. What is the concern?
A.Confidence always demonstrates full competence
B.Reduced threat assessment can accompany overconfidence
C.Weather planning matters only on a first solo
D.Recent success guarantees the next flight's conditions
Explanation: Recent success can encourage underestimation of changing hazards. Confidence should be supported by current information and a deliberate assessment of alternatives.
7In a METAR, what does wind group 24012KT report?
A.Wind toward 240° at 12 km/h
B.Wind from 240° true at 12 kt
C.Wind from 024° at 12 kt
D.Wind from 240° magnetic at 12 m/s
Explanation: METAR wind direction is reported in degrees true and speed in the indicated unit. This group means wind from 240° true at 12 knots.
8Why can a sea breeze create an important change near a coastal helicopter landing site during a sunny day?
A.Land heating can draw cooler surface air inland and change local wind
B.The sea breeze always blows offshore at noon
C.It guarantees the same wind at every height
D.It cannot affect low-level turbulence
Explanation: Land often warms faster than water during the day. The resulting circulation can bring an onshore surface flow and a wind-change boundary.
9A warm, humid day produces rapidly growing towering cumulus along the planned route. What development merits particular concern?
A.Guaranteed smooth air beneath all clouds
B.Convective showers or thunderstorms with strong vertical currents
C.A permanent improvement in visibility everywhere
D.Elimination of gusts as clouds grow
Explanation: Rapid vertical cloud growth indicates active convection. Further development can produce turbulence, heavy precipitation and dangerous wind changes.
10Which word indicates a distress situation involving grave and imminent danger requiring immediate assistance?
A.ROGER
B.STANDBY
C.MAYDAY
D.WILCO
Explanation: MAYDAY is the radiotelephony distress signal. It is distinct from acknowledgement and waiting instructions.
