For normal and crosswind takeoff and climb, you must show instructional knowledge of what elements?
|
Review of wind conditions
Takeoff hazards Use of wing flaps Alignment with takeoff path Initial positioning of flight controls Power application Directional control during accel. Climb attitude, power, airspeed Crosswind correction and track Checklist use |
|
|
What are the common errors related to a normal and crosswind takeoff and climb?
|
Improper initial control and flap position
Improper power application Removal of hand from throttle Poor directional control Improper use of ailerons Improper pitch during liftoff Improper climb config and airspeed Drift during climb |
|
|
What are the completion standards for Normal and crosswind takeoff and climb?
|
Vy +/- 5 kts during the climb
Retract landing gear and flaps after positive rate of climb is established |
|
|
For short field takeoff and climb, you must show instructional knowledge in what elements?
|
Takeoff hazards, esp. obstacles
Positioning/aligning for max t/o area Initial climb attitude |
|
|
What are the common errors related to short field takeoff and climb?
|
Failure to position for max utilization of available takeoff area
Improper initial position of flight controls and flaps |
|
|
What are the completion standards for Short field takeoff and climb?
|
Climb at Vx +5/-0 kts until 50 ft above surface.
Accelerate to and maintain Vy +/- 5 kts. Retract lndg. gear and flaps after positive rate of climb is established. |
|
|
For soft field takeoff and climb, you must show instructional knowledge in what elements specific to this maneuver?
|
Factors relating to transfer of weight from gear to wings quickly as possible.
Align w/ takeoff path w/o stopping. Acceleration in ground effect to Vy. |
|
|
What are the common errors related to soft field takeoff and climb?
|
Allowing plane to stop on takeoff surface before beginning takeoff.
Hazards of settling back to takeoff surface after becoming airborne. |
|
|
Related to load factor, the stall speed of an airplane increases in proportion to what?
|
The square root of the load factor
|
|
|
What factors can affect the stall of an aircraft?
|
Configuration of flaps/gear
Weight CG Load Factor Wing contamination Turbulence |
|
|
What is used to recognize an oncoming stall? 2 categories
|
Buffeting
Control effectiveness reduced |
|
|
What is the procedure for entering Slow Flight?
|
Clear
Select an altitude and heading Reduce throttle from cruising Raise nose as necessary Lower landing gear below Vle Lower flaps below Vfe Increase power to maintain level flight |
|
|
What is "speed instability"?
|
A slow flight characteristic wherin turbulence decreases the airspeed. At slower than L/D max, Drag increases with the decrease of airspeed. This cycles so that unless power is added or the nose is lowered, a stall will result
|
|
|
What are common errors in slow flight?
|
Not clearing the area
Not enough back pressure- alt. loss Uncoordination Fixating on airspeed Not anticipating flap action on controls Poor power management Poor division of attention between control and orientation |
