A change in behavior as a result of experience
What are the 8 defense mechanisms
Repression Reaction Formation Rationalization Denial of Reality Displacement Projection Compensation Fantasy
Characteristics of an effective assessment?

What is adverse yaw?
the tendency of an airplane to yaw in the opposite direction of the turn. For example, as you roll to the right, your airplane may initially yaw to the left.
When you roll your airplane to the right, your right aileron goes up, and your left aileron goes down. The aileron in the upward position (the right aileron in this example) creates less lift and less drag than the aileron that is lowered. The aileron angled downward (the left aileron in this example) produces more drag and more lift, initially yawing the airplane in the opposite direction of your roll.
What are the left turning tendencies?
P-Factor
Gyroscopic Precession
Spiraling Slipstream
Torque
If the student didn’t understand something, what defense mechanisms would they use to try to trick you?
Denial of reality or reaction formation
What is the difference between supervision and evaluation?
Supervision = guidance, not always showing restraint, observe standards
Evaluation = post flight critique. keeping student informed, taking notes
How does forward CG affect stall?
higher stall speed, closer to angle of attack, more stable
How does aft CG affect stall?
harder to recover, father from critical AOA, less stable
What are the characteristics of an effective question?
Is adapted to the learners ability Presents a challenge Is brief and concise, but clear Centers on one idea Applies to the subject
Characteristics of learning
Learning is..
Result from experience
Active process
Multifaceted
Purposeful
Things to minimize student frustration?
Keep learners informed
Critique constructively
Give credit when due Approach learners as individuals Motivate learner Be consistent Admit errors
Repression
Place uncomfortable thoughts into an inaccessible area of mind
Denial of Reality
Ignore or refuse to acknowledge their poor performance
Compensation
Disguise undesirable quality by emphasizing a more positive one
Projection
Relegate the blame for their shortcomings to others
Rationalization
The student cannot accept the real reason for their behavior
Reaction Formation
Individual develops behaviors/attitudes that are the opposite of what is desired
Fantasy
Student engages in daydreaming about how things should be rather than reality
Displacement
Unconscious shift of emotion, affect or desire from the original object to a more acceptable, less threatening substitute (Aggression)
Items in the Instructor’s Tool Box
Do not interrupt Do not judge Think before answering Be close enough to hear Do not insist on last word Concentrate Beware of biases Look for underlying feelings Watch for nonverbal behavior Avoid rehearsing answers while listening

Aviator’s Model Code of Conduct
- General Responsibilities of all aviators
- Passengers and people on the surface
- Training and proficiency
- Security
- Environmental Issues
- Use of technology
- Advancement and promotion of general aviation
Instructor Do’s
Be professional at all times Avoid profanity Be sincere Define common terms Continue professional development etc.....
Instructor Don’ts
Use profanity Ridicule learner's performance Say one thing but do another Disrespect the learner etc....
What records do CFI need to have?
- Sign logbook for all ground and flight training
- Solo Flight Privileges = Name / Date
- Knowledge/Practical Exam = kind of test / date / results
- 3 years, you need to keep it
- 189
What do you need to teach 414?
- CFI > 24 months & 200 dual given
2. 5 applicants with 80 % pass rate & 400 dual given
What are limitations as CFI?
- cant conduct more than 8 hours of flight training in 24 hour period
- must have an appropriate category and class rating
- can’t self endorse
- can’t give instruction in aircraft that requires type rating, unless instructor holds type rating
- cant provided instrument training for the issuance of an instrument rating, a type rating not limited to VFR, or the instrument training required for commercial pilot and airline transport pilot certificates without CFII
How do you renew your CFI?
- Retaking the practical test
- Getting an additional rating
- Having a 80% pass rate
- Serves as check pilot
- Providing graduation of flight instructor refresher course (FIRC)
- pass an official US armed forces military instructor pilot or examiner

Have to retake the practical, items for check are found on task table on page 20 of PTS
tell me what I’d need to do if I was a Private Pilot Rotorcraft Helicopter and wanted to get an ASEL rating added onto my private pilot certificate.
