  Chapter 7: Automation & Flight Path Management › Integrated Flight Path Automation Systems

  While pilots often rely on the autopilot, they also need to be able to fly the aircraft manually within appropriate standards. Pilots should train and practice using automation under VFR with an appropriately qualified and knowledgeable flight instructor before attempting ... flight. In addition, using a flight simulation training device provides the opportunity to practice and repeat automation procedures with a simulated high workload. Through appropriate training and practice, pilots learn to operate autopilot systems with ease and in a routine…

  Preflight Inspections The preflight inspection is a thorough and systematic means by which a pilot determines if an aircraft is airworthy and in condition for safe operation. POHs and owner/information manuals contain a section devoted to a systematic method ... performing a preflight inspection. Minimum Equipment Lists (MEL) and Operations With Inoperative Equipment Under 14 CFR, all aircraft instruments and installed equipment are required to be operative prior to each departure. When the FAA adopted the minimum equipment list…

  allows for maximum power during takeoff but can result in a propeller overspeed at a higher airspeed. A performance evaluation of the flight condition was performed for the particular aircraft model involved in this incident. This evaluation indicated that ... necessary to maintain level flight may be different than the speed associated with engine-out best glide speed. The appropriate emergency procedures should be followed to mitigate the emergency situation in the event of a propeller overspeed; however, pilots should…

  Choose (a Course of Action) After the problem has been identified and its impact estimated, the pilot must determine the desirable outcome and choose a course of action. In the case of the multiengine pilot given the simulated failed engine ... plan that will take him or her to the objective. Sometimes, there may be only one course of action available. In the case of the engine failure already at 500 feet or below, the pilot solves the problem by identifying…

  Single-Pilot Resource Management Single-pilot resource management (SRM) specifically refers to appropriate management of all resources available to the single pilot. SRM includes competencies such as situational awareness, communication skills, teamwork, task allocation, aeronautical decision-making, risk management, controlled ... management (CRM). 12350 Learning to recognize these resources is an essential part of SRM. In addition, a pilot should evaluate whether there is time to use a particular resource. For example, ATC assistance may be very useful if a pilot…
