- CHAPTER 2. FLIGHT TRAINING: STALLS › 200. STALL TRAINING › a. Stall Avoidance Practice at Slow Airspeeds
This loss of power will result in a VMC lower than the stall speed at higher altitudes. (VMC is the minimum control speed with the critical engine inoperative). Also, some airplanes have such an effective rudder that even ... following training elements are based on Report No. FAA-RD-77-26: a. Stall Avoidance Practice at Slow Airspeeds (1) Assign a heading and an altitude. Have the student reduce power and slow to an airspeed just above the stall…

Figure 5-35. Normal, slipping, and skidding turns at a constant altitude. If the climb is entered with no change in power setting, the airspeed gradually diminishes because the thrust required to maintain a given airspeed in level flight ... insufficient to maintain the same airspeed in a climb. When the flight path is inclined upward, a component of the aircraft’s weight acts in the same direction as, and parallel to, the total drag of the aircraft, thereby increasing…

This error is generally greatest at low airspeeds. In the cruising and higher airspeed ranges, IAS and CAS are approximately the same. Refer to the airspeed calibration chart to correct for possible airspeed errors. • True airspeed (TAS)—CAS corrected ... altitude and nonstandard temperature. Because air density decreases with an increase in altitude, an aircraft has to be flown faster at higher altitudes to cause the same pressure difference between pitot impact pressure and static pressure. Therefore, for a given…
- Chapter 11: Aircraft Performance › Climb Performance Factors › Range Performance
NOTE: The straight line that is tangent to the sea level power curve is also tangent to the altitude power curve. The effect of altitude on specific range can also be appreciated from the previous relationships. If a change ... altitude causes identical changes in speed and power required, the proportion of speed to power required would be unchanged. The fact implies that the specific range of a propeller-driven aircraft would be unaffected by altitude. Actually, this is true…

Indicated altitude—read directly from the altimeter (uncorrected) when it is set to the current altimeter setting. 2. True altitude—the vertical distance of the aircraft above sea level—the actual altitude. It is often expressed as feet above mean ... level (MSL). Airport, terrain, and obstacle elevations on aeronautical charts are true altitudes. 3. Absolute altitude—the vertical distance of an aircraft above the terrain, or above ground level (AGL). 4. Pressure altitude—the altitude indicated when the altimeter setting…

Evaluation program—(1) Application. Approval by evaluation is requested as a part of the application for approval of the Category II manual. (2) Demonstrations. Unless otherwise authorized by the Administrator, the evaluation program for each aircraft requires the demonstrations specified ... successful. A successful approach is one in which— (i) At the 100-foot decision height, the indicated airspeed and heading are satisfactory for a normal flare and landing (speed must be plus or minus 5 knots of programmed airspeed…
