Objectives

To teach how to maintain safe flight control in all configurations while manoeuvring at speeds in the approach speed range.

Motivation

During take-off, approach and landing, the student will have to manoeuvre the aeroplane in an approach speed range. The ability to control the aeroplane safely throughout this speed range is critical. Approach airspeeds may be necessary for circuit spacing, during a circling approach, while overshooting, or may be encountered if the pilot is distracted.

The majority of the following terms are used in this instructor guide.  Others may be encountered in flying various aeroplane types.

Applicable Speeds

V_A — Manoeuvring Speed - the maximum speed at which the application of full available aerodynamic control will not overstress the aeroplane.

V_F — Design Flap Speed - the maximum speed at which wing flaps may be actuated.

Objectives

To teach the student to:

• maintain safe flight control following an engine failure during a takeoff or overshoot
• perform the correct emergency procedures
• attain the appropriate airspeeds and, if the aeroplane is capable, continue to climb

Motivation

The takeoff and overshoot are two of the most critical phases of flight.  Failure of an engine at these times requires prompt, correct responses by the pilot to maintain safe control of the aeroplane.

Organizing the way you conduct your multi-engine instruction will help your students to master the required knowledge and skill more efficiently. Think of the training as having four parts:

Objectives

To teach how to take off, fly the circuit and land safely in a predetermined touchdown zone under existing traffic, runway and weather conditions.

Motivation

As well as having more complex systems, multi-engine aeroplanes tend to operate at higher airspeeds and heavier weights.  These factors impose greater demands upon a pilot's ability to control the aeroplane and adapt quickly to changing conditions.

Essential Background Knowledge

Review existing runway conditions and requirements:

As air travel becomes more popular, so grows the need for effective wildlife management at airports. Over the years, aircraft noise has diminished while the numbers of aircraft have increased dramatically. Not only are birds and mammals less able to avoid aircraft movements-there are fewer places left for these animals to find refuge.
