- Chapter 18: Emergency Procedures › Emergency Response Systems › Ballistic Parachutes
Emergency Response Systems Airplanes may have installed systems that provide alternatives in certain emergency situations. For example, ballistic parachute systems, if installed, may be deployed in an emergency allowing an airplane to descend slowly enough toward the ground such that ... occupants usually survive the resulting impact with minor or no injuries. Airplanes may also have an Emergency Autoland (EAL) system, which can take over control of the aircraft when necessary for a safe outcome. Ballistic Parachutes Deployment of an airplane…
- Chapter 8: Aviation Instructor Responsibilities and Professionalism › Evaluation of Learner Ability › Keeping the Learner Informed
Evaluation of Learner Ability Evaluation of a learner’s ability is an important element of instruction. Used in this context, evaluation refers to judging a learner’s ability to perform a maneuver or procedure. Demonstrated Ability Evaluation of demonstrated ability ... suitably modified to apply to the learner’s experience and stage of development as a pilot or mechanic. The evaluation considers the learner’s mastery of the elements involved in the maneuver or procedure, rather than merely the overall performance…

Figure 9-29. Sample emergency checklist. Critical items to be checked include the position of the fuel tank selector, the quantity of fuel in the tank selected, the fuel pressure gauge to see if the electric fuel pump is needed ... position of the mixture control, the position of the magneto switch, and the use of carburetor heat. Many actual emergency landings have been made and later found to be the result of the fuel selector valve being positioned…

forth in the MEL. Once the aircraft leaves the ground, any mechanical failures should be addressed using the appropriate checklists and approved AFM, not the MEL. Although a pilot may refer to the MEL for background information and documentation, actions ... flight should be based strictly on instructions provided by the AFM (i.e., Abnormal or Emergency sections). Configuration Deviation List A Configuration Deviation List (CDL) is used in the same manner as an MEL but it differs in that it addresses…
- Chapter 7: Automation & Flight Path Management › Integrated Flight Path Automation Systems
While pilots often rely on the autopilot, they also need to be able to fly the aircraft manually within appropriate standards. Pilots should train and practice using automation under VFR with an appropriately qualified and knowledgeable flight instructor before attempting ... flight. In addition, using a flight simulation training device provides the opportunity to practice and repeat automation procedures with a simulated high workload. Through appropriate training and practice, pilots learn to operate autopilot systems with ease and in a routine…
- Chapter 18: Emergency Procedures › Introduction
order to properly assess the hazards of flight and mitigate flight risk, a pilot needs to develop the appropriate knowledge, risk management, and skill, to effectively and safely pilot an LSA. Chapter 18: Emergency Procedures Introduction This chapter describes certain ... abnormal and emergency situations that may occur in flight. The key to successful management of an emergency situation, and/or preventing an abnormal situation from progressing into a true emergency, is a thorough familiarity with, and adherence to, the procedures developed…
