Subsection 1 - Physics of The Atmosphere Level 1

This document contains multiple choice questions about physics of the atmosphere, aerodynamics, theory of flight, and flight stability and dynamics. It covers topics like what a barometer indicates, units of atmospheric pressure, how stall speed is affected by weight, how profile drag changes with speed, how a boundary layer fence affects wing characteristics, when a stall warning device should operate, how wing position impacts stability, and that Dutch roll involves a rolling and yawing motion.
