Block 2 Test Flashcards
What are the fundamentals of BAIF?
Crosscheck
Instrument interpretation
Aircraft control
Types of Scans
Inverted V
Rectangle
Radial
BAIF Errors
Fixation
Omission
Emphasis
Fixation
Fixating attention towards one instruments more than others
Omission
Skipping attention towards one instrument
emphasis
rely on one instrument that is easily understood
Control Performance Method
Attitude + Power = Performance
Primary Supporting Method
Primary instruments are the instruments that provide the most pertinent information for the specific portion of flight. Supporting or secondary
instruments back up the primary information
Straight and Level (primary pitch, bank, power)
Primary Pitch = Alt, Bank = HI, Power = Airspeed
Change of Airspeed in Straight and Level and Turning Flight
Pitch = Altimeter Bank = HI Power = Tach
Constant Airspeed Climbs/Descents
Pitch = Airspeed, Bank = HI, Power = Tach or MP
Constant Rate Climbs/Descents
Pitch = VSI
Bank = HI
Power = Airspeed
VOR meaning
Very-High Frequency Omnidirectional Range
VOR Components
Airborne/aircraft Ground Stations Flags - Off/TO/FROM CDI Dots
Kinds of VOR
VOR
VORDME
VORTAC
Slant Range Error
the most error when close and high
HSI/RMI
Combines heading indicator and an nav
