Question 7 of 12 Number: 5583 Question: A pilot accidently turning OFF the IRS in flight, and then turns it back ON a few moments later. Following this incident:

1. 2. 3. 4.

it can only be used for attitude reference everything returns to normal and is usable the IRS is usable in NAV MODE after a position update no useful information can be obtained from the IRS

Question 9 of 12 Number: 4355 Question: The automatic flight control system (AFCS) in an aircraft is coupled to the guidance outputs from an inertial navigation system (INS). The aircraft is flying between inserted waypoints No. 3 (55°00'N 020°00'W) and No.4 (55°00'N 030°00'W). With DSRTK/STS selected on the CDU, to the nearest whole degree, the initial track read-out from waypoint No. 3 will be: 1. 270° 2. 266° 3. 278°

4. 274°
