- Chapter 2: Aeronautical Decision-Making › TEAM Checklist: Choose and Implement Risk Controls › The DECIDE Model
First, adjust the power to the maximum controllable level on both engines. Because the left engine is the only engine delivering thrust, the yaw increases to the right, which necessitates application of additional left rudder application. Figure ... engine and adjust power to maintain descent angle to a landing. However, in this case the pilot feathered the left engine because he assumed the engine failure was a left engine failure. During twin-engine training, the left engine…
- Chapter 16: Navigation › Effect of Wind
aircraft heading coincides with the TC and the wind is blowing from the left, the track does not coincide with the TC. The wind causes the aircraft to drift to the right, so the track falls to the right ... aircraft coincide with the desired course. If the mass of air is moving across the course from the left, the aircraft drifts to the right, and a correction must be made by heading the aircraft sufficiently to the left…

dispatcher, Everyman neglected to complete the fuel cross-feed check before taking off. Everyman, who was flying solo, left the right-fuel selector in the cross-feed position. Once aloft and cruising, he noticed a right roll tendency and corrected ... with aileron trim. He did not realize that both engines were feeding off the left wing’s tank, making the wing lighter. After two hours of flight, the right engine quit when Everyman was flying along a deep canyon gorge…

respond due to the lack of thrust. If the fuselage is rolling right, and the pilot puts in left cyclic to correct, the combination of fuselage angle to the right and rotor disk angle to the left becomes quite large…

turn is approximately one-half completed, can create the illusion of diving while turning. Tilting to Right or Left While in a straight-and-level attitude, with the pilot’s eyes closed, the instructor pilot executes a moderate or slight ... skid to the left with wings level. This creates the illusion of the body being tilted to the right. Reversal of Motion This illusion can be demonstrated in any of the three planes of motion. While straight and level, with…
