Flight Instructors Training Procedures _revised AIC_x

2. DEMONSTRATE THE EFFECT OF POWER
CHANGES FROM THE CLIMB POWER
SETTING
*
iv. Maintain altitude and allow the speed to
increase to cruise speed before setting
cruise power.
v. Conform to all the requirements for straight
and level flight.
vi. Trim as required.
vii. Instrument indications.
viii. Engine considerations.
i. Lookout.
ii. Maintain straight flight.
Reference point / heading.
Balance.
Wingtips equi-distant from horizon.
Drift considerations.
iii. Note the consideration for the climb.
Attitude – for the best rate of climb.
Power – best rate of climb.
Speed – climb.
Configuration – clean.
iv. Instrument indications:-
Note rate of climb.
v. Engine considerations.
vi. Decrease power to cruise power while
maintaining attitude, anticipate yaw and
pitch.
a. Aircraft yaws.
b. Speed decreases.
vii. To maintain:-
a. Straight flight:
Apply rudder as required, and trim.
b. Climb at best rate of climb speed:
Adjust attitude by lowering the nose.
Trim and note:
Attitude – lower than for BRC.
Speed – Best rate of climb.
Power – cruise.
Configuration – clean.
c. Instrument indications.
Decrease in rate of climb.
d. Engine considerations.
viii. Increase power to climb power and adjust the
attitude to maintain speed.
NOTE: Practice further power changes (maximum
through minimum), but do not allow the speed to
change before making the attitude adjustment i.e.
anticipate the changes due to power/speed/attitude
relationship.
SUMMARY: To maintain the required speed any
change in power will affect the nose attitude as well
as the rate of climb. The lower the power, the
lower the nose attitude and rate of climb and vice
versa.
