Q

When maneuvering the airplane, a suitable control sequence to follow (the same as in visual flight) is:

5 steps

A
  1. Visualize the desired new flight path and airspeed.
  2. Select the attitude and the power required to achieve the desired performance by moving the controls, and then checking when the airplane has achieved the estimated attitude on the AI.
  3. Hold the attitude on the AI, allowing the airplane to settle down into its new performance, and allowing the pressure instruments that experience some lag to catch up.
  4. Make small adjustments to attitude and power until the actual performance equals the desired performance.
  5. Trim (which is vital, if you are to achieve accurate and comfortable instrument flight).he pilot, and not to change aircraft attitude.
