Heres what they are and what you need to understand about each: Crossed-Control Stall What It Is: This stall occurs when the aircraft is in a skidding turn, typically with ailerons applied in one direction and rudder in the opposite direction (e.g., left aileron, right rudder). 65 knots in a Cessna 172).

The small aileron “tabs” were not doing a great job in crosswind ability. Left downwind on a blustery day with live weather actually shows a virga burst over the field, with local winds gusting 36 knots, making for some extreme conditions in such a tight canyon. Taking off in violent winds was a task.

Brief that you will use the right rudder to align the aircraft straight with the runway and the left aileron to counteract drift. This allows you to configure appropriately and ensures a stabilized approach. Take your ground speed in knots and divide it by two. So if your Vso is 50 knots, then aim to fly 70 knots.

At one point, we were watching an RV on final approach when a green and white Citabria swooped into view from above the restaurant in a steep, descending turn and appeared to cut off the RV. A target moved across my traffic display at 450 knots (518 miles per hour). "I Photo by The Bear. Ice on Sodus Bay. Photo by The Bear.

Flying at 60 knots? Two key aspects make good approaches. Pilots select their target airspeed for each approach. For example, it’s good practice to add a few knots to V-ref when landing in gusty conditions. times the aircraft’s stall speed on short final. times the aircraft’s stall speed on short final.

Upgraded wheel pants, flap and aileron seals, vortex generators, and a 3-bladed prop have been added. I configured the airplane the same way as noted on the Piper Climb chart: 105 mph (91 knots), flaps 10 ° , full throttle. Time To Fly Our aircraft can cruise for about 4 ½ hours plus an hour of reserve fuel at 130 knots.

The primary flight controls on the DC-10 (ailerons, rudder, elevators, spoilers) were all operated by hydraulic pressure and the first officer was quick to realize that his controls were unresponsive to his inputs. During the final approach, Haynes noted a high sink rate alarm from the aircraft’s ground proximity warning syst em (GPWS).
