Diverse Departure Obstacle Assessment to 25/46 NM 4. Takeoff Obstacles. Takeoff Obstacles Notes in the “Takeoff Minimums and (OBSTACLE) Departure Procedures” section of the Terminal Procedures Publication (TPP) identifies obstacle(s) that penetrate the 40:1 OCS. The obstacle notes ... alert the pilot to the height and location of the obstacles relative to the DER so they can be avoided. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways: the pilot may be able to see and avoid the obstruction…

pilot is expected to comply with the crossing altitude as a provision of the clearance. Any other clearance in which pilot execution is optional will so state “AT PILOT’S DISCRETION.” EXAMPLE-1. “United Four Seventeen, descend and maintain ... thousand.” NOTE-1. The pilot is expected to commence descent upon receipt of the clearance and to descend at the suggested rates until reaching the assigned altitude of 6,000 feet. EXAMPLE-2. “United Four Seventeen, descend at pilot…

Lift-Off Since a good takeoff depends on the proper takeoff attitude, it is important to know how this attitude appears and how it is attained. The ideal takeoff attitude requires only minimum pitch adjustments shortly after the airplane lifts ... attain the speed for the best rate of climb (VY). [Figure 6-3] The pitch attitude necessary for the airplane to accelerate to VY speed should be demonstrated by the instructor and memorized by the student. Flight instructors should…
