FL 110

FL 130

14) An aircraft flying at FL 100 from Marseille (QNH 1012 hPa) to Palma de Mallorca (QNH 1006 hPa) experiences no change to true altitude. The reason for this is that : Report

the air at Palma de Mallorca is warmer than that at Marseille

the air at Palma de Mallorca is colder than that at Marseille

the altimeters are erroneous, and need to be tested

15) During a flight over the sea at FL 100 from Marseille (QNH 1012 hPa) to Palma de Mallorca (QNH 1012 hPa), the true altitude is constantly increasing. What action, if any, should be taken ? Report

Have your altimeter checked, because its readings are obviously wrong

Recheck the QNH because one of the QNH values must be wrong

None, the reason for the change is that the air around Palma is warmer than the air around Marseille

16) During a flight over the sea at FL 100 from Marseille (QNH 1016 hPa) to Palma de Mallorca (QNH 1016 hPa), the true altitude is constantly decreasing. What is the probable reason for this ? Report

The air at Marseille is warmer than that at Palma de Mallorca

One of the QNH values must be wrong

The altimeter is faulty

17) During a flight over the sea at FL 135, the true altitude is 13500 feet; local QNH is 1019 hPa. What information, if any, can be gained about the air mass in which the aircraft is flying? Report

Its average temperature is the same as ISA

It is warmer than ISA

It is colder than ISA

18) An aircraft is flying over the sea at FL 90; the true altitude is 9100 feet; local QNH is unknown. What assumption, if any, can be made about the air mass in which the aircraft is flying ? Report

It is colder than ISA

There is insufficient information to make any assumption

Its average temperature is the same as ISA

19) An aircraft is flying over the sea at FL 120, with a true altitude of 12000 feet; local QNH is 1013 hPa. What assumption, if any, can be made about the air mass in which the aircraft is flying ? Report

It is warmer than ISA

There is insufficient information to come to any conclusion

Its average temperature is the same as ISA

20) An aircraft is flying over the sea at FL 100, with a true altitude of 10000 feet; local QNH is 1003 hPa. What assumption, if any, can be made about the air mass in which the aircraft is flying ? Report

It is warmer than ISA

Its average temperature is about ISA

It is colder than ISA
