Flight Instructors Training Procedures _revised AIC_x

4. BEST ANGLE OF CLIMB
Demonstrate using power, speed and
configuration as per aircraft manual.
5. THE CRUISE CLIMB
From the normal straight climb adjust the
speed and power as required for a cruise
climb. (As per aircraft manual).
*
speed (or the appropriate flap position).
ii. Raise the flaps from the full flap position, as
prescribed in the aircraft manual – Note the
height lost during the recovery.
i. Lookout.
ii. Maintain straight flight.
iii. Reference point/Heading and Balance.
iv. Note the considerations for the normal climb.
v. Instrument indications, note rate of climb.
vi. Engine considerations.
vii. Make the appropriate power, speed and
configuration changes as required for the
best angle of climb.
viii. To maintain:
a. Straight flight.
Adjust and trim as required
b. Climb as for best angle.
Adjust attitude to attain appropriate
speed for the flap setting, trim and
note:
Attitude – as for best angle speed.
Speed – best angle of climb.
Power – as required.
c. Instrument indications, rate of climb
less than for best rate of climb.
d. Engine considerations.
ix. Summary:
Although the rate of climb is lower than for
the best rate of climb conditions, due to the
configuration and lower IAS the angle of
climb will be steeper i.e. more height gained
in relation to distance covered.
i. Lookout.
ii. Maintain straight flight.
Reference point/Heading and Balance.
Wingtips equal-distant from horizon.
Drift considerations.
iii. Note the considerations for the normal climb:
Attitude – as for best rate of climb speed.
Speed – best angle of climb.
Power – climb.
Configuration – clean instrument.
iv. Instrument indications.
Note rate of climb.
v. Engine considerations.
vi. Make the appropriate power and speed
changes.
vii. To Maintain:
a. Straight Flight.
Adjust and trim as required and better
visibility.
b. Cruise Climb.
