Configuration Demonstration

Whiteboard

Objective Exhibit power + airspeed required in different configurations.	Flight Configuration Demonstration	Motivation Different aircraft configuration produce different airspeed and power combinations.
Elements Configuration: Attitude and power Region of reverse command Altitude loss Go-arounds Takeoffs		Procedure Clean configuration Establish VA Slow to VG holding altitude, note power Slow to just above stalls, note power Acknowledge stall indications Accelerate to level flight Note airspeed and altitude loss Landing configuration Establish VA Extend flaps, slow to reference landing speed (65) Note power Slow to just above stall speed Verbalize stall indications, note power Accelerate to level flight Note airspeed and altitude loss
Risk Management Airspeed limitations Region of reverse command Stalls and spins Stall warning indications	Common Errors Inappropriate back-pressure Inadequate yaw controls Fixation on airspeed or altimeter Not anticipating lift changes with flaps	Completion Standards Recovery >1500 ft. AGL Altitude ± 100 ft. Airspeed +5/-0 knots Heading ±10°
