) )<br />
Note: Do not attempt to correct for the apparent<br />
slip.<br />
v. Roll out downwind and note the increased<br />
groundspeed for a constant indicated<br />
airspeed.<br />
Note: Do not reduce power.<br />
Turning into wind i. Head the aircraft directly downwind.<br />
ii. Look out.<br />
iii. Commence a balanced medium turn<br />
through 180°.<br />
iv. Visual contact with the ground gives an<br />
impression of “skidding out” during the turn.<br />
EFFECT OF TURBULENCE DURING<br />
LOW FLYING<br />
BAD WEATHER LOW FLYING<br />
Whilst flying at minimum level, describe to the<br />
student an assumed bad weather situation<br />
which will necessitate the demonstration of:<br />
A simulated bad weather circuit and landing<br />
either at base or onto a suitable field.<br />
Note: Do not attempt to correct for the apparent<br />
skid.<br />
v. Roll out into wind and note the reduced<br />
groundspeed for a constant indicated<br />
airspeed.<br />
CONCLUSION: It will be necessary to take the<br />
effect of drift into account when turning to avoid<br />
obstacles.<br />
i. More marked over uneven ground, trees,<br />
hills and near thunderstorms.<br />
ii. Beware of strong downdrafts downwind of<br />
hills and mountains, as well as in the<br />
vicinity of thunderstorms.<br />
iii. Whenever practical avoid possible areas of<br />
turbulence during low flying,<br />
iv. Before or encountering turbulence:<br />
a. Repeat low flying checks.<br />
b. Increase altitude if practical.<br />
c. Counteract downdraft by increasing<br />
power.<br />
d. In strong downdrafts where full<br />
power cannot counter the effect of<br />
the downdraft, turn out of the<br />
downdraft.<br />
i. Obtain ATC clearance (actual or<br />
simulated).<br />
ii. Complete field approach check.<br />
iii. Approaching the circuit area, prepare the<br />
aircraft for slow safe cruising.<br />
iv. Keep a good look out and radio listening<br />
watch.<br />
v. Join the circuit as instructed by ATC. At<br />
uncontrolled airfields or simulated landing<br />
areas, comply with the statutory radio and<br />
joining procedures.<br />
vi. Position onto downwind, maintaining sight<br />
of the runway. Complete before landing<br />
checks.<br />
vii. Maintain visual contact with the runway<br />
