Flight Instructors Training Procedures _revised AIC_x

c. CONSIDERATIONS OF AIRMANSHIP AND ENGINE HANDLING
+
Adjust attitude to attain the correct
speed, trim and note:
Attitude – lower than best rate climb.
Speed – cruise climb.
Power – cruise climb.
Configuration – as required.
c. Instrument indications.
Rate of climb is less than for best rate
of climb.
d. Engine considerations.
Improved cooling.
AIRMANSHIP
i. Lookout.
ii. Vertical and horizontal limits of General Flying Area.
iii. Visibility considerations – sun and cloud.
iv. Trimming – use following sequence:
a. Change aircraft attitude with elevator.
b. Check aircraft nose movement when new desired attitude is obtained.
c. Hold aircraft nose position in new attitude until the approximate speed is
achieved.
d. Adjust aircraft nose attitude until correct speed is obtained.
e. Re-trim aircraft for hands and feet off.
v. Concentrate on attitude flying.
ENGINE CONSIDERATIONS
i. Mixture control during climb.
ii. Pitch setting for climb.
iii. Throttle – power limitations and settings as per aircraft manual.
iv. Temperatures and pressures – use of cowl flaps if applicable.
d. SIMILARITY TO PREVIOUS EXERCISES
i. Effects of controls – Primary and Secondary.
ii. Straight and level flight.
iii. Attitude flying.
iv. Trimming.
v. Engine Handling.
e. DE-BRIEFING AFTER FLIGHT
1. Briefly recap on the exercise and emphasise the important aspects applicable to:
i. Initiating the climb. The student must anticipate the pitch and yaw changes
resulting from the application of the climbing power, and apply the necessary
corrections to maintain heading and balance. During the attitude change from
straight and level into the straight climb the importance of the correct procedure
must be pointed out: Change, Check, Hold, Adjust, and Trim.
ii. Maintaining the climb.
a. During the phase the frontal visibility may be reduced. In order to ensure
a very good lookout, the nose may have to be lowered periodically
during the climb.
