- Chapter 9: Approaches and Landings › Emergency Approaches and Landings (Simulated)
field first elected until the instructor terminates the simulated emergency landing. This provides the instructor an opportunity to explain and correct any errors; it also gives the pilot an opportunity to see the results of the errors. However ... more advantageous field within gliding distance, a change to the better field should be permitted. The instructor should thoroughly explain the hazards involved in these last-minute decisions, such as excessive maneuvering at very low altitudes. Instructors should stress slipping…
- Chapter 7: Aircraft Systems › Propeller Overspeed in Piston Engine Aircraft
recommends that the information be read and taken into consideration for the safety of flight. The document explains that a single-engine aircraft experienced a propeller overspeed during cruise flight at 7,000 feet. The pilot reported that the application ... unable to reach the airport and was forced to conduct an off-field landing. It was further explained that a determination was made that the propeller experienced a failure causing the blade pitch change mechanism to move…

after the altimeter is set does it indicate the correct altitude. The word “correct” will need to be better explained when referring to types of altitudes, but is commonly used in this case to denote the approximate altitude above ... uncorrected, after the barometric pressure setting is dialed into the Kollsman window. The additional types of altitudes are further explained later…
- Chapter 18: Emergency Procedures › Engine Failure After Takeoff (Single-Engine)
make an emergency turn back after takeoff should use the services of an authorized flight instructor who can explain and demonstrate the practicality (or impracticality) of “the impossible turn” in the specific make and model used during training…

bank angle, the continued high rate of turn would cause the turn to be completed prematurely. Another way to explain this effect is—the wind is drifting the airplane downwind at the same time its groundspeed is slowing…
- Chapter 9: Techniques of Flight Instruction › The Telling-and-Doing Technique › Instructor Tells—Instructor Does
carefully planned demonstration of the procedure or maneuver with accompanying verbal explanation. While demonstrating inflight maneuvers, the instructor should explain the required power settings, aircraft attitudes, and describe any other pertinent factors that may apply. This is the only step ... explanation as closely as possible. In addition, it should be demonstrated in the same sequence in which it was explained so as to avoid confusion and provide reinforcement. Since learners generally imitate the instructor’s performance, the instructor needs…
