29
When diverting to an alternate airport because of
an emergency, pilots should
30
A. apply rule-of-thumb computations, estimates,

new course as soon as possible. B. rely upon
radio as the primary method of navigation. C.
climb to a higher altitude because it will be
easier to identify checkpoints.

operating with an excessively rich mixture.
33
An abnormally high engine oil temperature
indication may be caused by A. a defective
bearing. B. the oil level being too low. C.

34
Frequent inspections should be made of aircraft
exhaust manifold-type heating systems to minimize
the possibility of
35
A. a cold-running engine due to the heat
withdrawn by the heater. B. exhaust gases
leaking into the cockpit. C. a power loss due
to back pressure in the exhaust system.
