Flight Instructors Training Procedures _revised AIC_x

iv. Climbing and descending turns.
v. Use of various flap and power settings.
vi. Circuits and landings.
e. DE-BRIEFING AFTER FLIGHT
1. Briefly recap on the exercise and emphasise the important aspects applicable to:
i. Engine handling and shutdown procedures.
ii. Weight and performance. Ensure the aeroplane is correctly loaded and not
over its maximum take-off weight for the particular temperature and altitude.
iii. Engine failure procedures prior to and after lift off.
iv. Engine inoperative circuits and landings.
v. Asymmetric committal height and single engine overshoots.
2. Discuss the common faults students usually make:
i. Most students are told how difficult it is to fly a multi-engine aeroplane and
are told to under no circumstances must they fly below Vyse on approach.
Therefore, they tend to come in too fast causing the aeroplane to land too far
down the runway.
ii. When carrying out the simulated engine failure procedure, the student tends
to be too quick to identify the failed engine and sometimes identifies the
incorrect engine or identifies the correct engine but due to haste tends to
want to feather the other engine during “touch drills”.
iii. During single engine operation on circuits and landings, the student tends to
fly the aeroplane on the wrong side of the drag curve, thereby requiring
additional power/thrust to maintain straight and level.
iv. Some students forget to centralise the rudder trim on final approach during
single engine landings, consequently, when they close the throttle, this
causes the aeroplane to yaw in the opposite direction.
v. During simulated engine failures just after take-off, some students are so
busy trying to sort out this problem, that they omit to lookout and monitor
terrain clearance.
vi. After the engine identification, feathering and shutdown procedures, some
students forget to secure the engine by switching off magnetos, fuel/oil
cocks, closing the cowl flaps and considering fuel cross feed.
3. Discuss the student’s actual faults:
For each fault the instructor must indicate:
i. The symptoms of the fault.
ii. The cause of the fault.
iii. The result the fault could have lead to.
iv. The corrective action required.
f. BRIEFLY DISCUSS THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE NEXT LESSON
