Flight Instructors Training Procedures _revised AIC_x

same technique as above, but look parallel
to light beam whilst waiting for ground
features to appear.
11. LANDING RUN i. Direction to be maintained by reference to
last visible flare.
ii. Control column positioned as for type.
iii. Decreasing rudder effectiveness.
iv. Use of brakes.
12. CLEARING RUNWAY i. Same as for day flying.
ii. Radio call when clear of runway.
iii. When clear of runway:
a. Set park brake.
b. Set holding RPM – sufficient to
operate generator/alternator.
c. Control column positioned for aircraft
type.
d. Complete after landing checks.
13. TOUCH AND GO LANDING i. Same as for day – except on instruments
during climb out.
14. OVERSHOOT PROCEDURE i. Proceed as in exercise on instrument flying.
ii. Position aircraft to one side of flare path to
not obscure other aircraft taking off or
climbing out.
15. NIGHT NAVIGATION i. See Exercise 18.
NOTE: The basic flying technique taught to the student should prepare the student for night flying
using limited facilities, i.e.:
i. Single flare path.
ii. No other airfield lighting, landing or navigation aids.
iii. Restricted landing distance available (medium length runway).
iv. Restricted visual horizon.
v. No aircraft landing light.
The basic technique may be modified should additional aids, such as a double flare path and VASI’s or
PAPI’s, be available.
c. CONSIDERATIONS OF AIRMANSHIP AND ENGINE HANDLING
AIRMANSHIP
i. Taxy slowly at night and exercise caution due to the deceptiveness of speed and distance.
ii. All airmanship factors used in day flying are usually applicable to night flying.
iii. In normal VFR weather conditions, use a sensible combination of instrument and unusual
flying techniques.
iv. Be familiar with the positions of all switches and controls in the cockpit.
v. Thorough knowledge of all ATC light signals.
