- 14 CFR § 91.1091 Qualifications: Flight instructors (aircraft) and flight instructors (simulator).
Qualifications: Flight instructors (aircraft) and flight instructors (simulator). (a) For the purposes of this section and § 91.1095: (1) A flight instructor (aircraft) is a person who is qualified to instruct in an aircraft, in a flight simulator ... flight training device for a particular type, class, or category aircraft. (2) A flight instructor (simulator) is a person who is qualified to instruct in a flight simulator, in a flight training device, or in both, for a particular type…

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 and land beyond its touchdown ... point. [Figure 14-47A] • Landing behind a larger aircraft on a parallel runway closer than 2,500 feet—consider the possibility of drift and stay at or above the larger aircraft’s final approach flight path and note…

Airplane—an engine-driven fixed-wing aircraft heavier than air, that is supported in flight by the dynamic reaction of the air against its wings. • Glider—a heavier-than-air aircraft, that is supported in flight by the dynamic reaction ... against its lifting surfaces and whose free flight does not depend principally on an engine. • Lighter-than-air aircraft—an aircraft that can rise and remain suspended by using contained gas weighing less than the air that is displaced…
- Chapter 11: Aircraft Performance › Performance › Straight-and-Level Flight
Level Flight All of the principal components of flight performance involve steady-state flight conditions and equilibrium of the aircraft. For the aircraft to remain in steady, level flight, equilibrium must be obtained by a lift equal to the aircraft ... weight and a powerplant thrust equal to the aircraft drag. Thus, the aircraft drag defines the thrust required to maintain steady, level flight. As presented in Chapter 4, Aerodynamics of Flight, all parts of an aircraft contribute to the drag…
- 14 CFR § 91.326 Exception to operating certain aircraft for the purposes of flight training, flightcrew member checking, or flightcrew member testing.
Exception to operating certain aircraft for the purposes of flight training, flightcrew member checking, or flightcrew member testing. (i) The authorized instructor, designated examiner, person receiving flight training or being checked or tested, or persons essential for the safe operation ... aircraft; and (ii) Notwithstanding any operating limitation applicable under § 91.9(a) that prohibits the carriage of passengers for compensation or hire, up to two persons enrolled in a LODA training course for the same aircraft may observe the flight training…
- 14 CFR Part 91, Appendix G to Part 91—Operations in Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) Airspace
this appendix, an operator may be authorized to conduct RVSM operations if the Administrator finds that its aircraft comply with this section. (b) The applicant for authorization shall submit the appropriate data package for aircraft approval. The package must consist ... least the following: (1) An identification of the RVSM aircraft group or the nongroup aircraft; (2) A definition of the RVSM flight envelopes applicable to the subject aircraft; (3) Documentation that establishes compliance with the applicable RVSM aircraft requirements…
