  • CHAPTER 2. FLIGHT TRAINING: STALLS › 200. STALL TRAINING › f. Stalls During Go-Arounds

    Cross Controlled Stalls in Gliding Turns. Perform stalls in gliding turns to simulate turns from base to final. Perform the stalls from a properly coordinated turn, a slipping turn, and a skidding turn. Explain the difference between slipping and skidding ... turns. Explain the ball indicator position in each turn and the aircraft behavior in each of the stalls. e. Power-Off (Approach-To-Landing) Stalls (1) Have the student perform a full-flap, gear-extended, power-off stall with…

  • CHAPTER 1. GROUND TRAINING: STALL AND SPIN AWARENESS › 104. TYPES OF STALLS

    TYPES OF STALLS. Stalls can be practiced both with and without power. Stalls should be practiced to familiarize the student with the aircraft’s particular stall characteristics without putting the aircraft into a potentially dangerous condition. In multiengine airplanes, single ... engine stalls must be avoided. Descriptions of some different types of stalls follows: a. Power-off stalls (also known as approach-to-landing stalls) are practiced to simulate normal approach-to-landing conditions and configuration. Many stall/spin accidents have occurred…

  • CHAPTER 2. FLIGHT TRAINING: STALLS › 200. STALL TRAINING › c. Engine Failure in a Climb Followed by a Gliding Turn

    Power-On (Departure) Stall (1) At a safe altitude, have the student attempt coordinated power-on (departure) stalls straight ahead and in turns. Emphasize how these stalls could occur during takeoff. (2) Ask the student to demonstrate a power ... departure) stall and distract him/her just before the stall occurs. Explain any effects the distraction may have had on the stall or recovery. c. Engine Failure in a Climb Followed by a Gliding Turn. This demonstration will show the student…

  • 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 ... level VMC is lower than stall speed. For these airplanes, demonstrating loss of directional control may be safely conducted by limiting rudder travel to simulate maximum rudder available. Limiting rudder travel should be accomplished well above the power-off stall…

  • Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Load Factors › Load Factors and Stalling Speeds

    Load Factors and Stalling Speeds Any aircraft, within the limits of its structure, may be stalled at any airspeed. When a sufficiently high AOA is imposed, the smooth flow of air over an airfoil breaks up and separates, producing ... abrupt change of flight characteristics and a sudden loss of lift, which results in a stall. A study of this effect has revealed that an aircraft’s stalling speed increases in proportion to the square root of the load factor…

  • CHAPTER 2. FLIGHT TRAINING: STALLS › 200. STALL TRAINING

    CHAPTER 2. FLIGHT TRAINING: STALLS 200. STALL TRAINING. Flight instructor-airplane and flight instructor-glider applicants must be able to give stall training. The flight instructor should emphasize that techniques and procedures for each aircraft may differ and that pilots ... each aircraft flown. The most effective training method contained in Report No. FAA-RD-77-26, General Aviation Pilot Stall Awareness Study, is the simulation of scenarios that can lead to inadvertent stalls by creating distractions while the student…
