Objective Statements

Question 1

“Middle Name”

Answer 1

I know I have lost directional control when i have full rudder deflection into the operating engine and the aircraft begins to yaw toward the inoperative engine. To recover I will simultaneously reduce power on the operating engine and reduce the angle of attack

Question 2

Critical Engine

Answer 2

Is the engine that when failed most adversely affects the performance and handling qualities of the airplane

Question 3

VMC

Answer 3

Is the minimum airspeed at which directional control can be maintained with the critical engine inoperative

Question 4

Maneuvering Speed

Answer 4

Is the maximum airspeed at which full abrupt control inputs can be made without structural damage to the aircraft. At speeds below maneuvering speed, the aircraft will stall before exceeding the design limit load factor. At airspeeds above maneuvering speed the design limit load factor will be exceeded before the aircraft stalls

Question 5

Stabilized Approach

Answer 5

Is one in which the pilot establishes and maintains a constant angle glidepath towards a predetermined point on the landing runway. It is based on the pilot’s judgment of certain visual cues, and depends on a constant final descent airspeed and configuration

Question 6

Aiming Point

Answer 6

The point on the ground at which, if the airplane maintains a constant glidepath, and was not flared for landing, it would contact the ground

Question 7

Relative wind

Answer 7

The direction of the airflow produced by an object moving through the air. the relative wind for an airplane in flight flows in the direction parallel with opposite to the direction of flight; therefore, the actual flight path of the airplane determines the direction of the relative wind

Question 8

Slow Flight

Answer 8

To teach the student positive aircraft control at the speed at which any increase in angle of attack, increase in load factor or reduction in power would result in an immediate stall

Question 9

Slow flight PTS tolerance

Answer 9

At least 3,000 AGL
±50' 
±10° heading
\+5/-0 KTS
Specified Bank ±5°

Question 10

Power off Stall

Answer 10

To teach the student how to recognize and recover from a stall in landing configuration

Question 11

Power off Stall PTS tolerance

Answer 11

At least 3,000 AGL
±10° heading
Bank not exceed 20°
Recover at “onset’’ of stall

Question 12

Power on Stall

Answer 12

To teach the student how to recognize and recover from a stall in take off or departure configuration.

Question 13

Power on Stall PTS tolerances

Answer 13

At least 3,000 AGL
±10° heading
Bank not exceed 20°
Recover at “onset’”

Question 14

VMC Demo

Answer 14

To Teach the student how to recognize and recover from a loss of direction control

Question 15

VMC Demo PTS Tolerances

Answer 15

Recover within 20° heading

Question 16

Accelerated Stall

Answer 16

To demonstrate to the student that the aircraft will stall at a higher speed under increased load factor

Question 17

Accelerated Stall PTS Tolerances

Answer 17

At least 3,000 AGL
45° bank
Recover at “onset”

Question 18

Steep Turns

Answer 18

To teach the student to fly in a steep bank, maximum performance turn while using inside and outside references

Question 19

Steep Trun PTS Tolerances

Answer 19

50° bank
±100 Feet
±10 KTS
±5° bank
Rollout ±10° heading

Question 20

Drag Demonstration

Answer 20

To demonstrate to the student the effects of various airspeeds and configurations on performance

Question 21

Ground Reference Maneuvers

Answer 21

To develop division of attention between flightpath and ground references while controlling the airplane and watching for other aircraft in the vicinity
