- Chapter 16: Navigation › Charting the Course › Steps in Charting the Course
Charting the Course Once the weather has been checked and some preliminary planning completed, it is time to chart the course and determine the data needed to accomplish the flight. The following sections provide a logical sequence to follow ... charting the course, complete a flight log, and filing a flight plan. In the following example, a trip is planned based on the following data and the sectional chart excerpt in Figure 16-25. Route of flight: Chickasha Airport direct…
- Chapter 5: The Teaching Process › Application of the Lesson
previously learned. For example, the flight learner may be asked to plan for the arrival at a specific nontowered airport. The planning should take into consideration the wind conditions, arrival paths, communication procedures, available runways, recommended traffic patterns, and courses ... action in the event the unexpected occurs. Upon arrival at the airport the learner makes decisions (with guidance and feedback as necessary) to safely enter and fly the traffic pattern…

overall picture and gain an understanding of the weather that affects the safe completion of a flight. Chapter 14: Airport Operations Each time a pilot operates an aircraft, the flight normally begins and ends at an airport. An airport ... small sod field or a large complex utilized by air carriers. This chapter examines airport operations, identifies features of an airport complex, and provides information on operating on or in the vicinity of an airport. The definition for airports refers…

includes a receiver with a tuning device and a VOR or omninavigation instrument. The navigation instrument could be a course deviation indicator (CDI), horizontal situation indicator (HSI), or a radio magnetic indicator (RMI). Each of these instruments indicates the course ... tuned VOR. Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) The CDI is found in most training aircraft. It consists of an omnibearing selector (OBS) sometimes referred to as the course selector, a CDI needle (left-right needle), and a TO/ FROM indicator…

Example: Key to Traffic Pattern Operations— Single Runway 1. Enter pattern in level flight, abeam the midpoint of the runway, at pattern altitude. (1,000' AGL is recommended pattern altitude unless otherwise established.) [Figure 14-39] 2. Maintain pattern altitude ... around, continue straight ahead until beyond departure end of runway. [Figure 14-39] 5. If remaining in the traffic pattern, commence turn to crosswind leg beyond the departure end of the runway within 300 feet of pattern altitude. [Figure…
- Chapter 7: Planning Instructional Activity › Scenario-Based Training (SBT) › SBT Lesson Plan
this example, the instructor pilot tells the learner to plan for arrival at a specific nontowered airport. The planning should take into consideration the possible wind conditions, arrival paths, airport information and communication procedures, available runways, recommended traffic patterns, courses ... action, and preparation for unexpected situations. Upon arrival at the airport, the learner makes decisions (with guidance and feedback, as necessary) to safely enter and fly the traffic pattern. This is followed by a discussion of what was done…
