• Gear down & T/O flaps

Question 3

Steep Turns Procedure

Answer 3

1. Establish aircraft on a heading @ 150 KIAS
2. Turn to a specific heading with 45° or 60° AOB
3. Maintain airspeed and altitude

Correct altitude deviations by adjusting the pitch attitude

Question 4

Rate (Timed) Turns Procedure

Answer 4

1. Establish aircraft on a cardinal heading @ 150 KIAS
2. Initiate the turn 3 seconds prior to the clock indicating XX:00 or XX:30
3. Turn to a specific heading using a Half-SRT or Full SRT
4. Maintain airspeed and altitude
5. Check clock every 30° of HDG change to ensure correct rate/timing of turn

Question 5

Answer 5

90° of HDG change every minute

Question 6

How many ° of HDG change should happen in a minute for a SRT?

Answer 6

180° of HDG change every minute

Question 7

How long should a 30° HDG change take for a Half-SRT?

Answer 7

30° of HDG in 20 secs

Question 8

How long should a 30° HDG change take on a full SRT?

Answer 8

30° of HDG in 10 secs

Question 9

Constant Airspeed Climb Configuration

Answer 9

• 150 KIAS
• 55% Power
• 6° Nose Up

Question 10

Constant Airspeed Descent Configuration

Answer 10

• 150 KIAS
• 15% power
• 0° nose down

Question 11

Constant Airspeed Level Off Configuration

Answer 11

• 150 KIAS
• 33% Power
• 3.5° Nose Up

Question 12

S-1 Pattern Procedure

Answer 12

1. Start on any numbered/cardinal heading @ 150 KIAS
2. Three seconds prior to clock getting to XX:00, initiate a 1000 fpm constant airspeed descent (reduce power to 15% and set attitude to 0° Nose Up)
3. After 250’ of altitude change, check clock for 15sec of elapsed time
4. Three seconds prior to the end of 1min or 50’ of altitude prior to level off altitude, initiate a constant airspeed climb (increase power to 55% and set attitude to 6° nose up)
5. After 250’ of altitude change, check clock for 15sec of elapsed time
6. Repeat another series of constant airspeed descent followed by a constant airspeed climb
7. After final constant airspeed climb, level off (decrease power to 33% and set attitude to 3.5° nose up)

Question 13

Nose High Unusual Attitude Recovery

Answer 13

1. Recognize
2. Confirm
3. Relax back stick pressure & allow nose to fall towards the horizon
4. Roll aircraft towards 90° AOB (but not past 90° AOB)
5. Use power as necessary to maintain airspeed above stall speed
6. As fuselage dot approaches the horizon bar, establish a wings-level attitude

Steps #3-5 should occur simultaneously

Question 14

Nose Low Unusual Attitude Recovery

Answer 14

1. Recognize
2. Confirm
3. Roll wings level
4. Start to pull up when wings are level (adjust power/use speed brake to recover below max speed)

Question 15

GCA Maneuver Procedure

Answer 15

1. Start on a cardinal heading with a base altitude @ 200 KIAS
2. Use a SRT for a 90° heading change while maintaining altitude
3. Maintain altitude and heading while slowing to 150 KIAS
4. Use a SRT for a 90° heading change while maintaining altitude

Transition to BAC:
5a. Reduce power to 15% torque
5b. Lower landing gear when below 150 KIAS, lower flaps to T/O, and slow to 120 KIAS
5c. Before Landing Checklist
5d. Maintain 120 KIAS

6. Reduce power to 24% torque and initiate a 2000 ft descent at a 600fpm rate
7. IP will give 3-10° heading change…maintain this heading

Execute a Missed Approach:
8a. Set power to MAX
8b. Raise nose to 10-15° Nose High
8c. Raise gear after two positive rates and flaps to UP after 110 KIAS

9. Set 8-10° nose high and climb at 180KIAS
10. Approx. 200 ft prior to level off altitude, transition to 200 KIAS cruise configuration at the starting altitude and last assigned heading

Question 16

Enroute Descent Configuration

Answer 16

*220 KIAS
*10% power
*10° Nose Down

With a 4000 fpm descent rate
