- Chapter 9: Techniques of Flight Instruction › Positive Exchange of Flight Controls › Procedure
Procedure During flight training, there should always be a clear understanding between learners and flight instructors about who has control of the aircraft. The preflight briefing should include procedures for the exchange of flight controls. A positive three-step process ... exchange of flight controls between pilots is a proven procedure and one that is strongly recommended. When an instructor is teaching a maneuver to a learner, the instructor normally demonstrates the maneuver first, then has the learner follow along…
- Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Wingtip Vortices › Avoiding Wake Turbulence
Avoiding Wake Turbulence Wingtip vortices are greatest when the generating aircraft is “heavy, clean, and slow.” This condition is most commonly encountered during approaches or departures because an aircraft’s AOA is at the highest to produce the lift necessary ... land or take off. To minimize the chances of flying through an aircraft’s wake turbulence: • Avoid flying through another aircraft’s flight path. • Rotate prior to the point at which the preceding aircraft rotated when taking off behind another…
- Chapter 11: Helicopter Emergencies and Hazards › System Malfunctions › Recovery Technique (Uncontrolled Right Yaw)
Recovery Technique (Uncontrolled Right Yaw) If a sudden unanticipated right yaw occurs, the following recovery technique should be performed. Apply full left pedal. Simultaneously, apply forward cyclic control to increase speed. If altitude permits, reduce power. As recovery is affected ... adjust controls for normal forward flight. A recovery path must always be planned, especially when terminating to an OGE hover and executed immediately if an uncommanded yaw is evident. Collective pitch reduction aids in arresting the yaw rate…
- Chapter 14: Airport Operations › Collision Avoidance › Clearing Procedures
Clearing Procedures The following procedures and considerations are in place to assist pilots in collision avoidance under various situations: • Before takeoff—prior to taxiing onto a runway or landing area in preparation for takeoff, pilots should scan the approach area ... possible landing traffic, executing appropriate maneuvers to provide a clear view of the approach areas. • Climbs and descents—during climbs and descents in flight conditions that permit visual detection of other traffic, pilots should execute gentle banks left and right…
- Chapter 14: Airport Operations › En Route › Vortex Avoidance Procedures
Vortex Avoidance Procedures The following procedures are in place to assist pilots in vortex avoidance in the given scenario. • Landing behind a larger aircraft on the same runway— stay at or above the larger aircraft’s approach flight path ... past the intersection, continue and land prior to the intersection. If the larger aircraft rotates prior to the intersection, avoid flight below its flight path. Abandon the approach unless a landing is ensured well before reaching the intersection. [Figure…
