3. DEMONSTRATE THE EFFECT OF
DIFFERENT FLAP SETTINGS WHILE
MAINTAINING THE STRAIGHT CLIMB
(Best rate)
i. Select optimum/intermediate flap (Observe
Vfe).
ii. From optimum/intermediate flap, lower full
flap.
iii. From the full flap configuration, raise all the
flaps in one stage.
iv. Demonstrate the correct way to extend and
retract flaps.
*,
i. Lookout.
ii. Maintain straight flight.
a. Reference point/heading.
b. Balance.
c. Wingtips equi-distant from horizon.
iii. Note the considerations for the best rate of
climb:
Attitude – lower than for BRC.
Speed – Best rate of climb.
Power – cruise.
Configuration – clean.
iv. Instrument indications:
Note rate of climb.
v. Select flap, anticipate pitch changes, and
maintain attitude:
Speed decreases.
vi. To maintain:
a. Straight flight.
No noticeable change.
b. Climb, with optimum/ intermediate flap
setting.
Adjust attitude to attain correct speed
for the flap setting (as per aircraft
manual), trim and note:
Attitude – as for flap setting speed.
Speed – as for flap setting.
Power – climb.
Configuration – optimum/intermediate
flap.
c. Instrument indications:
Note decrease in rate of climb.
vii. Engine considerations.
i. Emphasise the same considerations as
above, with special reference to:
a. Nose attitude/speed.
b. Rate of climb/descent.
i. Before raising flap note altimeter reading
and rate of climb.
ii. During flap retraction adjust the attitude to
maintain the appropriate flap position. Note
of climb/descent indications.
iii. Note large trim requirements to remain in
trim.
