Terry You had good instruction Terry. I'd only add for you to monitor your airspeed as well. In other words, never omit an available cue. Its not something I was actually trained to do, just something I developed myself to be sure I dont lose any speed. Although I do remember in my training losing airspeed in the turns practising power off landings while concentrating too much on finding a field. Having carefully trimmed the C150 to 65 kt glide speed I was maybe dropping to 55 kts in the turns. I can still remember the instructors warning to "watch the f......k airspeed in the turn or it will bite you one day" Rather than watching the airspeed more carefully, I just developed the habit of dipping the nose a bit to make sure of it. I think its just an overload thing. While I do normally keep a close watch on my airspeed, when I am turning I think I focus too much on the attitude indicator instead of the ASI, as well as focusing outside of course. I guess I am one of those people who have trouble walking and chewing gum at the same time! Terry |

Exactly. The difference between a loaded turn and simply allowing the nose to fall through with reduced back pressure. snip for brevity I consider the imparting of this attitude in a student pilot a critical aspect of stall recovery training. I can't emphasize it's importance enough to new instructors. After following many of these threads over the years I am truly thankful for the instructors who followed these tenants in my primary training. Roger Halstead (K8RI & ARRL life member) (N833R, S# CD-2 Worlds oldest Debonair) www.rogerhalstead.com Me too ! One of the things they emphasized was if I ever encountered an accelerated stall close to the ground was to just point the nose in the direction it wanted to go. * How does that fix a developing yaw?

It's my uneducated opinion that too many perfectly good airplanes get turned to scrap because pilots continue to commit to an action that has become untenable. You have a hand on the throttle and it's important to remember to be ready to push it in if you don't like the way things are shaping up. Absolutely. Don't let ego get in the way of good judgement. True again. Sometimes it's not ego, though. A lot of thigs come into play, especially if conditions are tough. It's a curious thing, the sort of single-mindedness that often accompanies an accident. Bertie Lesson here is go-around if concerned and make sure you are preset for that option? Yeah. Should be, but we're only human. We have a two approach limit, too. We're not allowed to do a third one ( company manual) the number of accidents off a third approach is alarming. so you just stay up there? :) |

"WingFlaps" wrote in message ... My instrument flight test required level steep turns partial panel, which I assume was 45 degrees or more. How do you judge a 45 degree bank angle with just a TC as you would have with partial panel (no AH)? A 45 degree turn in most planes is going to peg the needle in the turn indicator. And the last thing you want to be doing partial panel are manouvers like that. Standard rate at the most. It's certainly not in the PTS or any FAA-endorsed curriculum. |

Ken -- IGNORE ABOVE --- Assuming you're not flying an F-4 in a sim, we'll move on to reality.... This fear is (correctly) pounded into every aspiring/training pilot -- don't cross control stall on turn to final! A pilot is trained to do 2g coordinated turns, even in twink flying, gee I wonder why. It's a perfectly safe thing to do and IIRC was Perfectly safe if not close to the ground and the pilot is proficient ant not just current. a requirement for a pilot's license. Are you just making this stuff up as you go along? The Practical Test Standard requires the demonstration of a steep turn at 45 degree bank and a safe or recommended airspeed. That's as steep and high g as it gets and it's not going to be 2g in my plane. 2Gg turns are fun nor are they hazardous when not done close to the ground. When I took Bo specific training the instructor started talking me into a steep turn. I asked if it was OK to just roll into it and go. I He said "OK", so I just rolled left and pulled. Coming up on the proper heading he said now lets do one the other direction where by I rolled to the right and pulled. This brought a laughing comment, "You really like to do these things don't you?" My puzzled "sure", brought the explanation that most of the Bo pilots would only grudgingly do 45 degrees let alone 60. You should have heard them complain when told the instructors would be blocking the yokes so they couldn't use the ailerons when doing stalls.:-)) I've found few of newer pilots and instructors like 2G at 60 degrees or the stalling characteristics of the Deb so when I go out to practice it's only the "old timers" who go along. When I took the PTS it was 60 degrees and 2Gs. By not going to 60 degrees in steep turns the students miss out on the different banking tendencies/characteristics. I often think it should be put back to that. There have been moments where I've been glad they did things that way back then. One such moment was when a ultra light flying far later than allowed popped out of the dark directly in front of me when I was no more than a couple hundred yards (if that) from the end of the runway. Another was on the VOR approach to MtPleasant where you fly directly over the runway at 500 feet to the VOR to go missed on 27. When the instructor's voice went up an octave and he said and I quote..."What that...Oh, ****! Pull UP, Pull UP! I went full power, stood the Deb on end and did a push over to level off that left things floating. He never would tell me how close we came but from his actions I'd say probably no more than a few feet. BTW I did all of that under the hood. I mentioned to the CFI that I figured had it been really close he'd have taken over. He said he figured that I knew the limits of the plane and would react quicker than he could even if he could see. He was right though, The urgency (I couldeven feel him tense sitting next to me) told me that this should be a maximum effort and not just a climb. Made me glad I use 120 for approaches instead of 80 or 90 too:-)) Neither of these were things covered in primary training or the PTS. They took a lot of time and practice getting to know the limits of the Deb. Roger Halstead (K8RI & ARRL life member) (N833R, S# CD-2 Worlds oldest Debonair) www.rogerhalstead.com I agree. I had to do 60 degree banked turns for my Private as well. -- Dudley Henriques |
