  Chapter 17: Aeromedical Factors › Health and Physiological Factors Affecting Pilot Performance › Climbing While Turning

  relying on flight instruments for assessing true aircraft attitude. A pilot should not attempt any of these maneuvers at low altitudes or in the absence of an instructor pilot or an appropriate safety pilot. Climbing While Accelerating With the pilot ... level attitude for several seconds, then accelerates while maintaining straight-and-level attitude. The usual illusion during this maneuver, without visual references, is that the aircraft is climbing. Climbing While Turning With the pilot’s eyes still closed…

  Chapter 2: Aeronautical Decision-Making › Automation › Autopilot Systems

  procedures have remedied some of the earlier problems with automation. Pilots must maintain their flight skills and ability to maneuver aircraft manually within the standards set forth in the PTS. It is recommended that pilots of automated aircraft occasionally disengage ... utilized properly. At no time is the moving map meant to substitute for a VFR sectional or low altitude en route chart. Equipment Use Autopilot Systems In a single-pilot environment, an autopilot system can greatly reduce workload. [Figure…

  Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Load Factors › Stalls

  that of stalling. As a generalization, a recovery from a stall made by diving only to cruising or design maneuvering airspeed, with a gradual pull up as soon as the airspeed is safely above stalling, can be effected with ... unless recovery has been effected with the aircraft’s nose near or beyond the vertical attitude or at extremely low altitudes to avoid diving into the ground…

  Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Load Factors › Chandelles and Lazy Eights

  great a gain in altitude; in low-powered aircraft, it may result in a net loss of altitude. The smoothest pull-up possible, with a moderate load factor, delivers the greatest gain in altitude in a chandelle and results ... better overall performance in both chandelles and lazy eights. The recommended entry speed for these maneuvers is generally near the manufacturer’s design maneuvering speed, which allows maximum development of load factors without exceeding the load limits. Rough…

  Chapter 11: Aircraft Performance › Climb Performance Factors › Region of Reversed Command

  fact that at low airspeeds near the stall or minimum controllable airspeed, the power setting required for steady, level flight is quite high. Flight in the region of normal command means that while holding a constant altitude, a higher airspeed ... power setting and a lower airspeed requires a lower power setting. The majority of aircraft flying (climb, cruise, and maneuvers) is conducted in the region of normal command…
