Flight Test Guide - Recreational Pilot Permit - Aeroplane - TP 12475
Sixth Edition (revised), March 2021
Pilot Training Record - Multi-Engine
Proper records are essential to keep track of the student's progress and to ensure continuity of training. The sample form given here has been designed to conform to the existing flight test report form so that it may be used with both the flight test guide and this instructor guide. If it is helpful, use it. If it is not, ignore it, and continue to use whatever record keeping you have used in the past.
Ex. 4 — Take-Off, Circuit and Landing
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:
Organizing the Training
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:
Ex. 6 - Engine Failure (Cruise Flight) and Manoeuvring with One Engine Inoperative
Objectives
To teach the student:
Ex. 3 - Taxiing
Objectives
To teach how to fly a multi-engine aeroplane safely, avoiding interference with other traffic, under varying conditions.
Motivation
All flights involve taxiing. Manoeuvring multi-engine aeroplane can be demanding due to the larger size, engine placement and heavier weight. Therefore, safe taxiing habits must be developed.
Essential Background Knowledge
Review:
Ex. 1 - Aeroplane Familiarization and Preparation For Flight
Objectives
To teach the student to:
Ex. 12 – Emergency Procedures/Malfunctions
Objectives
To teach:
- recognition of an emergency condition or system malfunction
- how to complete all procedures in accordance with the POH
Motivation
When an abnormal or unsafe condition is detected, a pilot must correctly assess the situation, then carry out the proper procedure to resolve the problem. Alternative action must also be considered if the pilot is not able to fully resolve a system malfunction. The alternative may be to divert to an airport nearby, while coping with limited aeroplane systems.
