flown EFIS for several years were required to fly various maneuvers manually, the aircraft parameters and flight control inputs clearly showed some erosion of flying skills. During normal maneuvers, such as turns to headings without a flight director, the EFIS…

required flight deck panels. Controllability. A measure of the response of an aircraft relative to the pilot’s flight control inputs. Controllable-pitch propeller (CPP). A type of propeller with blades that can be rotated around their long axis ... reversing without the need of changing the direction of shaft revolutions. Controlled airspace. An airspace of defined dimensions within which ATC service is provided to IFR and VFR flights in accordance with the airspace classification. It includes Class A, Class…

suitable to a changing environment. 12292 For example, a pilot may track an approach course adequately using manual control inputs. However, the pilot may also need to listen to and record the Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS), retrieve and load ... will increase workload and divert pilot attention from monitoring and controlling the flight path. If using an autopilot to track the approach, the automation performs the control inputs and allows the pilot to complete other tasks quickly and efficiently…

Diving or Rolling Beyond the Vertical Plane This maneuver may produce extreme disorientation. While in straight-and-level flight, the pilot should sit normally, either with eyes closed or gaze lowered to the floor. The instructor pilot starts a positive ... close his or her eyes and tilt the head to one side. The instructor pilot tells the pilot what control inputs to perform. The pilot then attempts to establish the correct attitude or control input with eyes closed and head…

rely on an autopilot for flight path management may experience degraded ability to fly manually when required to do so. For example, when flying in icing conditions, an automated system may make control inputs to compensate for ice accumulation. However ... pilot errors, which may result in flight path deviations or other undesired aircraft states. Pilots should anticipate the need to fly manually and be prepared to maintain the desired flight path when manual control becomes necessary. 12287 Pilots…
