The correct answer is B. Your plane is now headed almost due North at 12,000 feet altitude. Your heading was 270 degrees - almost due West. Then you were told to turn "Green 80" - an 80 degree turn to the right. Your new heading is 270 + 80 = 350 degrees - close to due North. Your new altitude is "Angels 12" or 12,000 feet. Service Flight Training Test #6 These planes have enough engine power and airspeed that in some cases the plane can survive conditions better than the pilots.
Sudden fast maneuvers such as pulling out of a dive, doing and emergency loop, can create gravitational or "g" forces. A pilot's
blood can suddenly be pushed down to his legs - causing him to blackout and lose control of the airplane. Good pilots have to learn
to sense when they are about to "blackout".
