Flyers,
1) In a rectangular course lesson, how do you (as an instructor or student)
determine the distance to fly from the rectangular field chosen?
c) The steepness of the bank required / desired

Don't want a wide pattern burning up fuel and keeping you out of glide
range, but you also don't want student pilots pulling 60-degree banks to
fly a tight pattern. (Pax probably don't appreciate it either.)

2) How is VMC affected by an increase in altitude?
b) VMC goes down.

Less thrust, although this still confuses me somewhat in terms of
indicated airspeed.


3) If taking off from an airport w/o a control tower inside Class C
airspace you are required to?

b) takeoff without permission, but contact ATC as soon as practical

Although, some satellite airports (Pearson, IIRC) have freqs posted to
contact ATC before departure.

4) What is the speed limit in Class B airspace
b) 250 knots

Tricky question: BELOW Class B is 200 knots.
