  attempt any of these maneuvers at low altitudes or in the absence of an instructor pilot or an appropriate safety pilot. Climbing While Accelerating With the pilot’s eyes closed, the instructor pilot maintains approach airspeed in a straight ... maintaining straight-and-level attitude. The usual illusion during this maneuver, without visual references, is that the aircraft is climbing. Climbing While Turning With the pilot’s eyes still closed and the aircraft in a straightand-level attitude, the instructor…

  Chapter 11: Aircraft Performance › Performance › Rate of Climb (ROC)

  Rate of Climb (ROC) ROC is a comparison of altitude gained relative to the time needed to reach that altitude. ROC is simply the vertical component of the aircraft’s flight path velocity vector. For maximum ROC performance, a pilot ... achieve a maximum gain in altitude over a given period of time. Maximum ROC expedites a climb to an assigned altitude. This gains the greatest vertical distance over a period of time. For example, in a maximum AOC profile…

  addition of a VFR or other restriction; i.e., climb or descent point or time, crossing altitude, etc., does not authorize a pilot to deviate from the route of flight or any other provision of the ATC clearance. b. When ... altitude information of an ATC clearance means that ATC has offered the pilot the option to start climb or descent when the pilot wishes, is authorized to conduct the climb or descent at any rate, and to temporarily level…

  rate of accumulation is slightly greater than the rate of sublimation. A representative accretion rate for reference purposes is less than ¼ inch (6 mm) per hour on the outer wing. The pilot should consider exiting the icing conditions before they ... become worse. b. Light- The rate of ice accumulation requires occasional cycling of manual deicing systems to minimize ice accretions on the airframe. A representative accretion rate for reference purposes is ¼ inch to 1 inch…

  This causes a pressure differential that is indicated on the instrument needle as a climb or descent. When the pressure differential stabilizes at a definite ratio, the needle indicates the rate of altitude change. Figure 8-5. Vertical speed indicator ... different types of information: Trend information shows an immediate indication of an increase or decrease in the aircraft’s rate of climb or descent. • Rate information shows a stabilized rate of change in altitude. The trend information is the direction…
