Level-off
Chapter 8.4
Objectives
To know the procedure for Level-off
To know the procedure for Level-off Cruise (POWER CONTROLLED FLIGHT)
To know the procedure for Level-off Circuit (POWER CONTROLLED FLIGHT)
Level-off from the descent
There are two kinds of transitions:
1. Leveling off into CRUISE from the descent
- The power is increased according to the tables for the flight at cruising speed
Level off from the descent
There are two kinds of transitions:
2. Leveling off into the CIIRCUIT at a reduced constant airspeed.
- The power of the engine is reduced to a value at which the initial approach speed is eventually stabilized.
Procedure Transition into Cruise, POWER / ATTITUDE / TRIM
Transition from descent into climb with a GO AROUND
The GO AROUND / BALKED LANDING procedure is described in Chapter 13.
Questions
What is the correct sequence for manipulations during the transition from a descent to a straight and level flight?
- POWER
- ATTITUDE
- TRIM
- Mixture set
When entering the aerodrome circuit, you go directly from a descent into a SPEED CONTROLLED FLIGHT. What power do you set when you enter the straight and level flight?
- A known value for maintaining the preselect speed
