- Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Ground Effect
Figure 5-16. Ground effect changes airflow. Ground effect also alters the thrust required versus velocity. Since induced drag predominates at low speeds, the reduction of induced drag due to ground effect will cause a significant reduction of thrust required ... parasite plus induced drag) at low speeds. Due to the change in upwash, downwash, and wingtip vortices, there may be a change in position (installation) error of the airspeed system associated with ground effect. In the majority of cases, ground…
- Chapter 11: Helicopter Emergencies and Hazards › Ground Resonance
Ground Resonance Helicopters with articulating rotors (usually designs with three or more main rotor blades) are subject to ground resonance, a destructive vibration phenomenon that occurs at certain rotor speeds when the helicopter is on the ground. Ground resonance ... balance rotor. The unbalanced rotor disk vibrates at the same frequency (or multiple thereof) of the airframe’s resonant frequency, and the harmonic oscillation increases because the engine is adding power to the system, increasing the magnitude (amplitude…
- Chapter 9: Techniques of Flight Instruction › Integrating Instruction Techniques › Ground Instruction
Integrating Instruction Techniques A flight instructor uses many instructional techniques during ground instruction, when using simulation, and during hands-on aircraft training. Since flight training costs are high and new aircraft are more complex than in the past, the total ... time without sacrificing the quality of the end product. This section looks at teaching techniques in greater detail. Ground Instruction Ground instruction can be highly effective if it follows an overall plan designed to prepare the learner for flight…

- Appendix 4. FAA Form 7233-4 - International Flight Plan
Specify in Item 15 the point or points where change of flight rules is planned. The IFR plan will be routed to ATC, and the VFR plan will be routed to a Flight Service for Search and Rescue services. NOTE ... flight plan. ATC does not have knowledge of a VFR flight plan’s status. 3. Type of Flight (Item 8b) (a) The type of flight is optional for flights remaining wholly within U.S. domestic airspace. (b) Indicate the type…
