Maneuvers and TOLs Flashcards
What needs to be done before every maneuver?
CRAC
Clean configuration flow
Fuel selector BOTH
Mixture ENRICHEN
Flaps 0
Landing configuration
Fuel selector BOTH
Mixture ENRICHEN
Flaps FULL
Steep Turns
Accomplished above 3,000’ AGL. Roll into one coordinated 360 degree turn, then follow with another coordinated 360 degree turn in the opposite direction. Roll into and out of turns at approximately the same rate.
Perform two 90 degree clearing turns
90kts (2000rpm) maintain altitude
Cruise configuration
Find a point off the nose as a reference and bug heading
Perform a 360 degree turn with 50 degrees of bank
Maintain altitude, apply back pressure and add 1-2,000 rpm
Upon rolling out on your reference point and heading , clear traffic and turn to the other side
Commercial 50 degree bank Altitude +- 100 feet Airspeed +- 10 knots Bank +- 5 degrees Rollout +- 10 degrees of heading
PVT
Same as above but 45 degree bank
Power off stall
Accomplished at an altitude that will allow completion no lower than 1,500’
Perform two 90 degree clearing turns 1500 RPM (maintain altitude) Landing configuration Bug heading Stabilized descent at 65kts Throttle idle (slowly) Wings level Maintain altitude to induce stall Recover - simultaneously reduce AOA, full power, level wings Retract flaps to 20 immediately Retract flaps to 10 when airspeed is greater than 55 Increase pitch to catch Vx Retract flaps when accelerating through Vx Cruise checklist
Commercial
Heading within +- 10 degrees
Bank not to exceed +- 20 degrees, +- 5 degrees if in turning flight
Power on stall
Need to be completed above 1,500’ AGL
Perform two 90 degree clearing turns
1500rpm maintain altitude
Clean configuration
At 60kts, simultaneously increase pitch and add 2000 rpm
Increase pitch til stall
At stall, reduce AOA, full power, wings level
Cruise checklist
Chandelles
Completion no lower than 1,500’ AGL. Consist of one max performance climbing turn beginning from straight and level flight, and ending at the completion of a precise 180 degree turn in a wings level, nose high attitude at the minimum controllable airspeed
Perform two 90 degree clearing turns
100kts (2200RPM) maintain altitude
Clean configuration
Choose reference off wing
Bug heading
Establish/maintain 30 degree bank
Full power, pitch 10-12 degrees maintaining bank
Once you get to 90 degree point, maintain pitch and slowly let out bank
At 180 degree point, wings level at minimum controllable airspeed
Accelerate while maintaining level flight
Cruise checklist
Rollout complete at 180 degree point +- 10 degrees
Just above stall speed
Then resume straight and level flight with minimal loss of altitude
8’s on pylons
Accomplished at the appropriate pivotal altitude. Maintain coordinated flight while flying a figure eight pattern which holds the selected pylons using the appropriate pivotal altitude. At the steepest point, the bank angle should be approximately 30-40 degrees
Determine wind and pivotal altitude
100knots (2200 RPM)
Enter at pivotal altitude
Perform clearing turns
Clean configuration
Select two pylons to allow for 3-5 seconds wings level between the two
Enter maneuver on 45 degree midpoint downwind
Apply appropriate pitch corrections to compensate for change in airspeed and pivotal altitude
Maintain line of sight reference to pylon
If point is in front of you, pitch down. If point moved behind you, pitch up
Begin rollout to allow plane to proceed diagonally between the two pylons at a 45 degree angle
Begin second turn
Exit maneuver on entry heading
Accelerated stall
Completion no lower than 3,000’ AGL. A smooth transition should be made from cruise attitude to a bank angle of 45 degree, maintaining coordinated turning flight, while increasing elevator back pressure steadily to induce stall.
Perform two clearing turns Slow to approximately 80kts Clean configuration Established 45 degree bank turn Slowly reduce power to idle Maintain altitude to induce stall Recover at the stall Simultaneously reduce AOA, max power, and level wings Cruise checklist
Normal landing
90 it’s in the downwind
Abeam touchdown point, power back to 1500, one notch of flaps
Descend out of TPA at 70-80kts
On base, below 85, 20 degrees flaps and slow to 70
Reference glide path with VASI or PAPI
Maintain 70 until short final and flare at 65
Soft field landing
Normal traffic pattern procedures
On short final when landing is assured, select 30 degrees flaps and slow to 65
Touch down on intended point at minimum speed with nose high pitch attitude
Keep the nose wheel off the ground as airplane slows by increasing back pressure
Normal takeoff
Line up on centerline positioning controls for wind
Increase throttle to 2000, check gauges
Looks good, full power
Airspeed alive
Slow rotation at 55
Accelerate to 79 Vy
After takeoff checklist out of 1,000’ AGL
Soft field takeoff
Flaps 10
Roll onto runway with full aft yoke, do not stop
Smoothly apply full power, check gauges
Lift off at lowest possible airspeed - remain in ground effect
Accelerate to 60 Vx and begin to climb
Accelerate to 79
At safe altitude retract flaps
Out of 1,000’ after takeoff checklist
