Chapter 5: Maintaining Aircraft Control: Upset Prevention and Recovery Training › Stalls › Accelerated Stalls
Accelerated Stalls While pilots may understand the cause of an accelerated stall, it takes training to experience how these stalls develop and occur. The objectives of demonstrating an accelerated stall are to determine the stall characteristics of the airplane, experience ... stalls at speeds greater than the +1G stall speed, and develop the ability to instinctively recover at the onset of such stalls. This is a maneuver only commercial pilot and flight instructor applicants may be required to perform…

CHAPTER 3. FLIGHT TRAINING: SPINS › 300. SPIN TRAINING › a. Spin training must be accomplished in an aircraft that is approved for spins
Spin training must be accomplished in an aircraft that is approved for spins. Before practicing intentional spins, the AFM or POH should be consulted for the proper entry and recovery techniques. b. The training should begin by practicing both power ... power-off stalls to familiarize the applicant with the aircraft's stall characteristics. Spin avoidance, incipient spins, actual spin entry, spin, and spin recovery techniques should be practiced from an altitude above 3,500 feet AGL. c. Spin avoidance training…

CHAPTER 2. FLIGHT TRAINING: STALLS › 200. STALL TRAINING › f. Stalls During Go-Arounds
Cross Controlled Stalls in Gliding Turns. Perform stalls in gliding turns to simulate turns from base to final. Perform the stalls from a properly coordinated turn, a slipping turn, and a skidding turn. Explain the difference between slipping and skidding ... turns. Explain the ball indicator position in each turn and the aircraft behavior in each of the stalls. e. Power-Off (Approach-To-Landing) Stalls (1) Have the student perform a full-flap, gear-extended, power-off stall with…

Chapter 5: Maintaining Aircraft Control: Upset Prevention and Recovery Training › Stalls › Cross-Control Stall
Cross-Control Stall The objective of the cross-control stall demonstration is to show the effects of uncoordinated flight on stall behavior and to emphasize the importance of maintaining coordinated flight while making turns. This is a demonstration-only maneuver ... practical test. However, all pilots should be familiar with the situations that can lead to a cross-control stall, how to recognize and avoid this stall, and how to recover should one occur. The aerodynamic effects of the uncoordinated, cross…

CHAPTER 1. GROUND TRAINING: STALL AND SPIN AWARENESS › 104. TYPES OF STALLS
TYPES OF STALLS. Stalls can be practiced both with and without power. Stalls should be practiced to familiarize the student with the aircraft’s particular stall characteristics without putting the aircraft into a potentially dangerous condition. In multiengine airplanes, single ... engine stalls must be avoided. Descriptions of some different types of stalls follows: a. Power-off stalls (also known as approach-to-landing stalls) are practiced to simulate normal approach-to-landing conditions and configuration. Many stall/spin accidents have occurred…
