Flight Instructors Training Procedures _revised AIC_x

ii.
A Precautionary landing.
c. CONSIDERATIONS OF AIRMANSHIP AND ENGINE HANDLING
AIRMANSHIP
)
and commence a turn to position the
aircraft onto final approach, from where the
appropriate type of landing may be carried
out.
i. Decide upon an appropriate landing area.
ii. Complete field approach checks.
iii. Follow procedures as described in
Exercise 17.
i. Look out – for terrain features and other aircraft.
ii. Trim aircraft nose up so that a slight forward pressure has to be maintained on control
column. Should concentration lapse, aircraft will tend to fly up and away from terrain.
iii. Maintain safe distance below base of low cloud.
iv. Low flying checks.
v. Anticipation – plan ahead taking into consideration the effect of inertia and wind.
vi. Orientation – maintain an awareness of position at all times.
vii. Check the surrounding weather conditions continuously for possible deterioration.
viii. Comply with ATC requirements where applicable.
ix. Comply with low flying regulations.
ENGINE CONSIDERATIONS
i. Fuel management.
ii. Power setting:
Mixture as required.
Pitch – high RPM as for climb.
Throttle – as required to maintain safe speed appropriate to aircraft configuration.
iii. Use of aircraft lighting according to flight conditions cockpit and external lights.
d. SIMILARITY TO PREVIOUS EXERCISES
i. Straight at level flight at various airspeeds.
ii. Medium and steep turns.
iii. Use of various flap settings.
iv. Circuits and landings.
v. Short landing.
vi. Climbing and descending.
vii. Slow Flight as in Exercise 10A.
e. DE-BRIEFING AFTER FLIGHT
1. Briefly recap on the exercise and emphasise the important aspects applicable to:
i. Judgement of height above the ground.
ii. Anticipation of inertia.
iii. Anticipation of turn radius.
iv. Effect of drift at low level.
2. Discuss the common faults students usually make.
