I. IDENTIFICATION: Identify what is being asked and write your answer before the number. (2pts ea.)

1. It is the electronic systems used on aircraft, artificial satellites, and spacecraft where it includes also
the communication and navigation.

2. Stores flight information and audio from the cockpit and often recovered from an aircraft crash.

3. On what date did the first government sponsored the organization in support of aviation and
development.

4. Series of Curtis JN- 2biplane that has wooden control stick for flight controls of the aircraft.

5.
What is Avionics?
6.

7. Detects the location of nearby aircraft to supplement air traffic control which provides instructions
for avoiding collision.

8. It determines the aircraft locations and position on or above the surface of the earth.

9. It connects flight deck to the ground and the flight deck to the passengers and provides aircraft
intercoms.

10. It is important for aircraft flying at night or in instrument meteorological conditions.

II. FILL IN THE BLANKS: Put the correct word on the blank given below to complete the paragraphs. (2pts ea.)

A. The cockpit of an aircraft is a typical location for avionic equipment, including control, _______________,
_______________, _________________, __________________, and ____________________. The majority of
aircraft power their avionics using 14- or _____ DC electrical systems; however, larger, more sophisticated
aircraft (such as airliners or military combat aircraft) have AC systems operating at 400 Hz, 115 volts AC.

B. The first hints of ________________ emerged in the 1970s when flight-worthy __________________ screens
began to replace electromechanical displays, gauges and instruments. A "glass" cockpit refers to the use of
computer _______________ instead of gauges and other analog displays. Aircraft were getting progressively
more displays, dials and information dashboards that eventually competed for space and pilot attention. In the
1970s, the average aircraft had more than ______ cockpit instruments and controls.
