  Adverse yaw demonstration. While at a low airspeed, have the student enter left and right turns without using rudder pedals. (8) Have the student practice turns, climbs, and descents at low airspeeds. (9) Demonstrate the proper flap extension and retraction ... procedures while in level flight to avoid a stall at low airspeeds. Note the change in stall speeds with flaps extended and retracted. (10) Utilize realistic distractions at low airspeeds. Give the student a task to perform while flying…

  Chapter 5: Maintaining Aircraft Control: Upset Prevention and Recovery Training › Slow Flight

  pilot training and testing purposes, slow flight includes two main elements: ⦁ Slowing to, maneuvering at, and recovering from an airspeed at which the airplane is still capable of maintaining controlled flight without activating the stall warning—5 to 10 knots ... appropriate to takeoffs, climbs, descents, approaches to landing, and go-arounds. Slow flight should be introduced with the target airspeed sufficiently above the stall to permit safe maneuvering, but close enough to the stall warning for the pilot to experience…

  Indicated altitude—read directly from the altimeter (uncorrected) when it is set to the current altimeter setting. 2. True altitude—the vertical distance of the aircraft above sea level—the actual altitude. It is often expressed as feet above mean ... level (MSL). Airport, terrain, and obstacle elevations on aeronautical charts are true altitudes. 3. Absolute altitude—the vertical distance of an aircraft above the terrain, or above ground level (AGL). 4. Pressure altitude—the altitude indicated when the altimeter setting…

  This error is generally greatest at low airspeeds. In the cruising and higher airspeed ranges, IAS and CAS are approximately the same. Refer to the airspeed calibration chart to correct for possible airspeed errors. • True airspeed (TAS)—CAS corrected ... altitude and nonstandard temperature. Because air density decreases with an increase in altitude, an aircraft has to be flown faster at higher altitudes to cause the same pressure difference between pitot impact pressure and static pressure. Therefore, for a given…

  CHAPTER 1. GROUND TRAINING: STALL AND SPIN AWARENESS › 100. STALL/SPIN EFFECTS AND DEFINITIONS › j. Altitude and Temperature

  stall speed increases. The increased weight requires a higher AOA to produce additional lift to support the weight. j. Altitude and Temperature. Altitude has little or no effect on an airplane’s indicated stall speed. Thinner air at higher altitudes ... will result in decreased aircraft performance and a higher true airspeed for a given indicated airspeed. Higher than standard temperatures will also contribute to increased true airspeed for a given indicated airspeed. However, the higher true airspeed has no effect…
