Question 1

What are the signs and symptoms of a stall?

Answer 1

S - Speed decreasing

A- Attitude increasing

B - Buffet (2 types light / heavy )

I - Instability (flight no longer smooth)

R - RoD - large and increasing

S - stick - fully aft

Question 2

SSR - describe. How many phases? What do you do when?

Answer 2

Phase I -

Re-attach boundary layer

1. AP/ AT OFF
2. Nose down elevator (reduce AoA, STAB TRIM)
3. Roll shortest way to W/L
4. Power UP as needed
5. Retract speedbrake

​Phase II -

minimise altitude loss, return to normal flight condition

1. Check speed, adjust Power
2. Establish pitch ATT
3. Return to desired flight condition
4. AP/AT ON (if desired)

Question 3

Spin - what is it ? How do you recover?

Answer 3

Yaw-aggravated stall

1. Throttle CLSD
2. Flaps UP
3. L/R - direction of spin
4. Rudder - opposite
5. Stick - neutral - progressively forward until spin stops
6. Rudder - neutral
7. W/L and climb away

Question 4

Incipient spin recovery - how do you recover?

Answer 4

1. (Undemanded yaw)
2. Controls - NEUTRAL
3. Power - decrease
4. Wait for a/c stability to kick in
5. Roll to horizon (NRST)
6. Climb away
7. Power UP

Question 5

Spiral dive recovery

Answer 5

1. Throttle close
2. W/L
3. Ease out of dive
4. Add power wi 5kts of speed
5. Recover to normal flight
