analog flight instruments. Any flight, regardless of the aircraft used or route flown, consists of basic maneuvers. In visual flight, aircraft attitude is controlled by using certain reference points on the aircraft with relation to the natural horizon. In instrument…

- Chapter 1: Risk Management and Single-Pilot Resource Management › Situational Awareness › Obstacles to Maintaining Situational Awareness
asking about positions of other aircraft in the traffic pattern, engine instrument indications, and the aircraft’s location in relation to references on a chart, the flight instructor can determine if the learner is maintaining situational awareness. The flight instructor…
- Chapter 5: Flight Instruments › Required Navigation Instrument System Inspection › Taxiing and Takeoff
mitigate this risk by ensuring that all of the directional flight instruments are checked properly before taxiing or taking off so that the position of the aircraft in relation to the runway and other traffic is always known. 1. Turn ... instrument is unreliable. Adjust the miniature aircraft with reference to the horizon bar for the particular airplane while on the ground. For some tricycle-gear airplanes, a slightly nose-low attitude on the ground gives a level flight attitude…

fixed position relative to the natural horizon. [Figure 3-8] The principles of attitude flying require that the reference point to the natural horizon position should be cross-checked against the flight instruments to determine if the pitch attitude ... correct. If trending away from the desired altitude, the pitch attitude should be readjusted in relation to the natural horizon and then the flight instruments crosschecked to determine if altitude is now being corrected or maintained. In level flight maneuvers…
