climb.
ii. Increase Power then change the Attitude,
check the Speed then Trim the aircraft.
(PAST and CCHAT). Make sure that the
student increases the power in the correct
order and prevents yaw with the rudder.
iii. Have the student level-off at a given altitude.
Point out the need to start levelling the
aircraft at 10% of the rate of climb in feet
before the aircraft reaches the given
altitude.
iv. Regain cruise.
Attitude, Speed, Power then Trim (ASPT).
Ensure the student reduces power in the
correct order and prevents yaw with the
rudder.
i. On a given heading have the student initiate
a descent visually. Point out the outside
then the inside indications of a descent.
Power, Attitude, Speed and then Trim
(PAST).
ii. Have the student level-off at a given altitude.
Point out the need to start levelling the
aircraft at about 10% of the rate of descent
in feet before reaching the desired altitude.
Power, Attitude, Speed and then Trim.
(PAST and CCHAT).
iii. Have the student climb 500ft., level-off and
then descend 500ft. at given speeds and on
specified headings.
i. Have the student practice straight and level
flight and show him how to set the D/I to the
compass.
a. The instructor must ensure that an adequate lookout is maintained particularly whilst the
student is under the hood.
b. It is absolutely essential that the D.I. is synchronized with the compass about every 10 to 15
min.
ENGINE CONSIDERATIONS
a. Watch out for overheating during climbing.
b. Make sure that the student knows how to increase and decrease power in the correct order.
c. Consider the use of cowl flaps during climbs and descents, if fitted.
d. The workload for the student is very high and in all probability the engine instruments will not
be looked at. It is most important that the student develop his scan to include these
instruments from the first lesson.
