Requirements on the day for A B cat flight test

Current class 1 medical


Certified logbook showing all requirements met


Current volume 1 and 4 AIP


Copies of the flight instruction reference texts (training manual and preflight briefs)

Flying for endurance

To fly for longest amount of time for a given amount of fuel


Assuming


Max fuel is loaded


Fuel performs work and work is constant


Work to be done as slowly as possible


Power is rate of doing work


Work = power x time


Horse power vs TAS

Flying for range

To fly for range is to fly for the greatest distance on a given amount of fuel


This assumes


Max fuel is loaded


Fuel is a constant


Work is a constant


Work = force x distance


The force here is drag and we want that to be a minimum to maximise distance


Drag drag vs IAS graph show range/cruise


Show affect of altitude (fly for best tailwind)

Forces in a glide

FCW DRAG LIFT W1 TR WEIGHT


Weight increase ROD will only affect AOD with wind


Flap AOD ROD
