  Chapter 8: Flight Instruments › Compass Systems › Magnetic Compass Induced Errors

  minimize the difference between the compass indication and the actual aircraft magnetic heading. The AMT records any remaining error on a compass correction card like the one in Figure 8-35 and places it in a holder near the compass ... Only AMTs can adjust the compass or complete the compass correction card. Pilots determine and fly compass headings using the deviation errors noted on the card. Pilots must also note the use of any equipment causing operational magnetic interference such…

  Chapter 9: Techniques of Flight Instruction › Assessment of Piloting Ability › Correction of Learner Errors

  Correction of Learner Errors Correction of learner errors does not include the practice of taking over from learners immediately when a mistake is made. Safety permitting, it is frequently better to let learners progress part of the way into ... aircraft. It is difficult for learners to learn a maneuver properly if they seldom have the opportunity to correct an error. On the other hand, learners may perform a procedure or maneuver correctly and not fully understand the principles…

  Chapter 3: The Learning Process › Errors › Learning from Error

  Error Recovery Given that the occasional error is inevitable, it is a worthwhile exercise to practice recovering from commonly made errors, or those that pose serious consequences. All flight learners need to learn and practice a lost procedure to ensure ... which they have lost their way. It is useful to devote the same sort of preparation to other common learner errors. Learning from Error Error can be a valuable learning resource. Learners naturally make errors, which instructors can utilize…

  Chapter 6: Threat and Error Management Introduction Threats What is an Error? Causes of Errors Insufficient Training & Experience Introduction Pilots use risk management as described in earlier chapters to analyze the likelihood and potential severity of an incident or accident ... encounter unforeseen hazards or threats. In addition, a pilot may respond inappropriately to a given condition, thus making an error. This chapter provides strategies pilots may use once flight begins. Threats Threats have the following characteristics: • Threats occur outside…

  Chapter 7, Section I: Airplane Basic Flight Maneuvers › Turns › Steep Turns

  During training in steep turns, as in any other maneuver, attend to the most important tasks first. Keep the pitch attitude relatively constant, and more time can be devoted to cross-check and instrument interpretation. During recovery from steep turns ... released and power decreased. The common errors associated with steep turns are the same as those discussed later in this section. Remember, errors are more exaggerated, more difficult to correct, and more difficult to analyze unless rates of entry…

  Misinterpretation of changes in heading, with resulting corrections in the wrong direction. 3. Failure to note and remember a preselected heading. 4. Failure to observe the rate of heading change and its relation to bank attitude. 5. Overcontrolling in response ... especially during changes in power settings. 6. Anticipating heading changes with premature application of rudder control. 7. Failure to correct small heading deviations. Unless zero error in heading is the goal, a pilot will tolerate larger and larger deviations. Correction…
