Refer to Figure 4 on page 6.
What is the caution range of the glider?
  1. O to 55 knots
  2. 165 to 208 knot
  3. 55 to 100 knots
  4. 100 to 165 Knots
Explanation
Correct answer: B. 165 to 308 knots. For a glider, the yellow arc is the caution range. Gliders are built to be very durable and light aircraft. Therefore, a pilot needs to know that approaching any caution speed could easily push the aircraft beyond its abilities and structural failure can occur at the red line.
