Make sure you're at the recommended altitude (600-1,000 feet AGL) per ACS guidelines. Maintain 600-1,000 feet AGL. Maintain 600-1,000 feet AGL. On theupwind leg, expect slower groundspeed and shallow the bank angle when turning your crosswind. Use a crab angle again on the crosswind leg to track straight.

Youll want to perform any ground reference maneuver between 600 and 1000 feet Above Ground Level (AGL). Use coordinated aileron and rudder pressures to swiftly, but not excessively, angle into this turn. Base to Upwind Leg As your aircraft moves from the downwind leg onto the base leg, the tailwind transforms into a crosswind.

If utilizing Runway 17 with left traffic, the crosswind turn will be heading 080, downwind 350, base 260, etc. VFR to MVFR…then 2 miles visibility and a ceiling of 1,200 feet agl. Then the CFI should increase the winds so they are 10 knots (or more) above the demonstrated crosswind component.

The airplane will be flown at 1,000’ AGL parallel to and at an equal distance from the field boundaries – about ½ – ¾ miles from the boundary as you would fly a traffic pattern. As the airplane turns onto the following base leg, the tailwind will decrease and becomes a crosswind.

We counteract adverse yaw by applying rudder in the direction of the turn. The amount of rudder required depends on roll rate and airspeed. Airspeed and attitude change constantly, and we must change rudder input along with them. We apply right rudder to counteract the left-turning tendencies.

Adjust pitch and power for the desired airspeed and approach angle.The approach should be stabilized on the extended runway centerline no lower than 300’ AGL. At this time, it should be gently lowered.Maintain directional control and crosswind correction with appropriate rudder aileron input.
