Maneuver Objectives & Definitions

Question 1

Turns Around a Point Obj

Answer 1

teach keep constant radius around point
correcting for wind
using inside & outside refs

ALT 100
ASPD 10

Question 2

S- Turns Obj

Answer 2

fly a series of S- Turns across linear ground feature
with semicircles equal size & shape
account for wind effects
constant altitude & airspeed

ALT 100
ASPD 10

Question 3

Rectangular Course Obj

Answer 3

fly ground track equidistant from all sides of rectangular area on ground
account for wind
constant airspeed & altitude
using inside & outside refs

ALT 100
ASPD 10

Question 4

Steep Turns Obj

Answer 4

fly steep bank, maximum performance turns while using inside & outside refs

ALT 100
ASPD 10
BANK 5
Hdg Rllout 10

Question 5

Slow Flight Obj

Answer 5

teach positive aircraft control at speed in which any increase AOA, increase load factor, or reduction power result in stall warning or aerodynamic buffet

Alt 50
Hdg 10
Aspd +5/-0
Bank 5*

Question 6

Power Off Stall Obj

Answer 6

recognize & recover from stall in landing config

Alt
Hdg 10 (straight flight)
Aspd
Bank 5* not exceed 20* (turning)

Question 7

Power On Stall Obj

Answer 7

recognize & recover from stall in Takeoff/Departure config

Alt
Hdg 10* (S&L)
Aspd
Bank 5* not exceed 20* (turning)

Question 8

Accelerated Stall Demonstration Obj

Answer 8

demonstrate acft will stall at higher airspeed under increased load factor

Coordinated 45* bank (ACS)

Question 9

Vmc Demo Obj

Answer 9

teach student to recognize & recover from loss of directional control

Recover +/- 20* entry heading

aspd 5 of VSSE/VYSE during recovery

Question 10

Drag Demo

Answer 10

demonstrate effects on acft performance under various configs

Question 11

Vmc

Answer 11

Calibrated Airspeed at which directional control can be maintained with the critical engine inop

Question 12

Critical Engine

Answer 12

Engine that, when it fails, has the most adverse effects on directional control of the airplane

Question 13

“Middle Name”

Answer 13

I know have lost directional control when I have full rudder deflection into the operating engine and aircraft begins to yaw toward inop engine.

To Recover I will simultaneously reduce power on operating engine as needed and reduce AOA to regain directional control and then smoothly re-apply full power on the operating engine

Question 14

Maneuvering Speed

Answer 14

Max airspeed at which full, abrupt control inputs can be made without structural damage to the aircraft.

At airspeeds below maneuvering speed, the aircraft will stall before exceeding design limit load factor.

At airspeeds above maneuvering speed the design limit load factor will be exceeded before the aircraft stalls.

Question 15

Stabilized Approach

Answer 15

Is an approach in which the pilot establishes and maintains a constant angle glide path towards a predetermined point on the landing runway. Based on pilot’s judgement on certain visual cues, and depends on constant final descent airspeed and configuration

AFH 8-9

Question 16

Aiming Point

Answer 16

Point on the ground at which, if airplane maintains constant glide path and was not flared for landing, it would contact the ground.
