Objective Statements Flashcards
Turns Around a Point
To teach the student how to keep a constant radius around a point while correcting for wind using inside and outside references.
+/-100’; +/-10 knots
S-Turns
To teach a student how to fly a series of S-Turns across a linear ground feature, with semi-circles of equal size and shape, accounting for wind effects while maintaining constant altitude and airspeed.
+/-100’; +/-10 knots
Rectangular Course
To teach the student how to fly a ground track equidistant from all sides of a rectangular area on the ground, accounting for wind effects while maintaining constant altitude and airspeed while using inside and outside references.
+/-100’; +/-10 knots
Steep Turns
To teach the student to fly in a steep bank, maximum performance turn while using inside and outside references.
+/-100’; +/-10 knots; bank +/-5º; +/-10º of entry heading
Slow Flight
To teach the student positive aircraft control at the speed in which any increase in angle of attack, increase in load factor or reduction in power would result in a stall warning or aerodynamic buffet.
+/-50’; heading +/-10º; airspeed +5/-0 knots; bank +/-5º
Power Off Stall
To teach the student how to recognize and recover from a stall in the landing configuration.
+/-10º heading or +/-5º bank (up to 20º)
Power On Stall
To teach the student how to recognize and recover from a stall in the takeoff or departure configuration.
+/-10º heading or +/-10º bank (up to 20º)
Accelerated Stall Demonstration
To demonstrate to the student that the aircraft will stall at a higher airspeed under increased load factor.
45º bank
Vmc Demo
To teach the student how to recognize and recover from a loss of directional control.
Recover within 20º; +/-5 knots of Vyse
Drag Demo
To demonstrate to the student the effects on aircraft performance under various configurations.
