An aviation instructor's ability to teach in a manner that gives learners a positive image of aviation contributes to the instructor ... success. [Figure 8-3] Figure 8-3. Learners learn more when instruction is presented in a positive and professional manner. Chapter 3, The Learning Process, emphasized that a negative self-concept inhibits the perceptual process, that fear adversely affects learner…
- Chapter 6: Flight Controls › Flight Control Systems › T-Tail
Additionally, the distance between the wings and the tail, the position of the engines (such as being mounted on the tail) may increase the susceptibility of deep stall events. Therefore a deep stall may be more prevalent on transport versus ... general aviation aircraft. Since flight at a high AOA with a low airspeed and an aft CG position can be dangerous, many aircraft have systems to compensate for this situation. The systems range from control stops to elevator down springs…

In small airplanes, this is the power-off stall speed at the maximum landing weight in the landing configuration (gear and flaps down ... white arc. VS1. The stalling speed or the minimum steady flight speed obtained in a specified configuration. For most airplanes, this is the power-off stall speed at the maximum takeoff weight in the clean configuration (gear up, if retractable…

Flights Along Airways or Routes. A position report is required by all flights regardless of altitude, including those operating in accordance with an ATC clearance specifying “VFR-on-top,” over each designated compulsory reporting point along the route being flown ... Flights in a Radar Environment. When informed by ATC that their aircraft are in “Radar Contact,” pilots should discontinue position reports over designated reporting points. They should resume normal position reporting when ATC advises “RADAR CONTACT LOST” or “RADAR SERVICE…

There are three basic positions or attitudes used in moving a seaplane on the water, differentiated by the position of the floats and the speed ... seaplane through the water. They are the idling or displacement position, the plowing position, and the planing or step position.
