Slow Flight
Maneuver standards: ALT +/- 100’ Bank 5°+/-5° HDG +/-10° Speed +10 -0kts
NOTE: Minimum safe altitude for this maneuver is 1500’ AGL, Crosswinds Aviation requires a minimum altitude of 3,500’ AGL.
Slow flight is performed in the landing Configuration
1. Perform clearing turns
2. Reduce throttle to 1700 RPM
3. As airspeed decreases a gradual increase in back elevator pressure will be required to
maintain altitude
4. Trim off control pressure as necessary.
5. Below 85 KIAS (White Arc)
6. Flaps 10°– watch for ballooning tendency, increase forward elevator as necessary to maintain
altitude.
7. Flaps 20°
8. Flaps FULL
9. Trim to relieve control pressures
10.Maintain altitude and heading
11.Slow to an airspeed that is 5 to 10 knots above published Vso.
12.Maintain directional control using outside visual references and inside instrument references
13.Practice gentle climbs, descents, and turns at constant airspeed
Recovery procedure
1. smoothly apply full power
2. Lower nose at a rate that will maintain altitude (0 VSI)
3. Retract flaps to 20°
4. Maintain level altitude (0 VSI)
5. Retract flaps to 10°
6. Maintain level altitude (0 VSI)
7. Approaching 65 KIAS, retract flaps to 0°
8. Approaching cruise airspeed, trim as necessary
9. Complete CRUISE checklist
Power On Stalls
Maneuver standards: ALT +/- 100’ Bank 45°+/-5° HDG +/-10° Speed +/-10kts
NOTE: Minimum safe altitude for this maneuver is 1500’ AGL, Crosswinds Aviation requires a minimum altitude of 3,500’ AGL.
Power on stalls are performed in the Take off Configuration
1. Perform clearing turns
2. Set power to 1700 RPM
3. Below 110 KIAS
4. Flaps 10° (or flaps up)
