Avionics Internship Test
Intern has to take Avionics internship test in which they will be asked 50 multiple-choice questions. They have to score grade A or A* on this test to be eligible for the internship. Here’s a sample set of questions on the Avionics topic.
1. What is the reason for using CRT used instead of LCD or LED displays?
(A) To meet the required brightness level
(B) Cheap to manufacture
(C) Low energy of operation
(D) Lightweight
View Answer
Explanation: To clearly see the flight parameters displayed on the combiner glass against the bright sky, it is necessary to achieve a display brightness of 30,000 Cd/m square. This high brightness requirement is the reason why CRT is used instead of LCD or LED, even though CRT’s are heavier and require more power to run.
2. Monocular rivalry occurs due to the brain trying to concentrate on _________
(A) two equal displays on both the eyes
(B) two different displays on both the eyes
(C) one eye with display and the other eye without display
(D) both the outside world image and the displayed image in one eye
View Answer
Explanation: Monocular rivalry occurs because the brain is trying to process different images from each eye and rivalry can occur between the eye with a display and the eye without a display. The effect is most significant when flying at night when one eye sees less light whereas the other eye sees more. To overcome this binocular system is used where both the eyes are presented with the flight parameters.
3. Why are mechanical instruments retained when high tech LED displays are available?
(A) LED displays are costly
(B) LED Displays cannot withstand the flight environment conditions
(C) Probability of failure
(D) Accuracy
View Answer
Explanation: Although high tech LED Displays are available the mechanical systems are still used as a fail-safe for the LED display. There is always a chance of electrical failure due to engine failure and power supply may be cut off. In situations like this mechanical systems are necessary to land the plane safely.
4. What are isolated word recognizers?
(A) Systems that can recognize anyone’s voice
(B) System that is not fully voice commanded
(C) Systems that require a pause between each word to recognize
(D) Systems that only accept one-word command
View Answer
Explanation: An isolated word recognizer requires pauses between each word said as it cannot recognize fully connected speech. The DVI control in an aircraft must not be an isolated voice recognizer to ensure smooth man-machine interface.
5. How are FBW signals transmitted?
(A) Simplex
(B) Duplex
(C) Time division multiplexing
(D) Code division multiplexing
View Answer
Explanation: Transmission of electric signals is a key element in a FBW system. Faster the signal transmission, quicker the response of the aircraft to the pilot stick controls. Time division multiplexing is used where signals can be transmitted along a network comprising only of two wires as only one set of data is being transmitted at any particular time.
