IF Flashcards
Initial nose up attitude on takeoff?
10 deg. NU WL
Nose up attitude on climb out to maintain 140?
15 deg. NU (WL) - Approx. 10-12 NU FPM
Normal IFR climb speed
140 KIAS
Normal AoB for IFR climbing turns?
30 deg. AoB
If accelerating through what speed during an IF UP recovery should you deploy speedbrake?
200 KIAS
Post IF UP recovery checks?
H - Height, at safe height
I - Instruments; Crosscheck HUD, AI and BFI
R - Reason: Establish cause of UP
O - Oxygen: Check connections, flow and cabin pressure
O - Orientation: Check position
O - Overstress: Check for exceedance of airframe limits
Instrument Descent
200 KIAS
9 deg. ND
10% TQ
Speedbrake OUT
En-route descent
220 KIAS
10 deg. ND
5% TQ
Speedbrake IN
Penetration descent (icing/OBOGS fail/pressurisation fail)
250 KIAS
20 deg. ND
IDLE
Speedbrake OUT
When can you do slower rates of descent in IF flying and how would you fly them?
Below 2000ft
1000ft/min rate of descent
140-180KIAS
(could use 20% TQ, 4 deg. ND, 180KIAS)
Configured descent
15% TQ
Lower nose to maintain 120KIAS
1000ft/min RoD
Radar to Visual
FIRADS
Call App. when required
“VAL APP, AXX, request Radar to Visual [for SIA?], with [ATIS CODE COPIED]”
Set QFE WHEN DIRECTED!
Follow controller’s directions (set bugs, think descent profiles and speeds, etc)
Set up kit on TSD to aid SA (VOR as well?)
Once VMC can call “AXX, VMC below, request own navigation/to Tower?”
Change to Tower and join
ATN checks on a MID?
Altimeter - Set SPS
Transponder
Nav Aids
When would you set RPS in IF?
UPs
Emergency LL Abort
140 KIAS climb level off anticipation?
10% RoC
