STEEP TURNS

1. Clearing turns, maintain altitude.

2. Panel checks.

3. Set power to 2500 RPM.

4. Enter the maneuver on a cardinal heading.

5. Roll into turn smoothly using coordinated rudder and aileron slightly increase pitch as you roll past 30 degrees establish 45 degree bank add power to maintain airspeed.

6. Maintain altitude by establishing a reference on the aircraft cowling with the horizon, verify altitude with altimeter and VSI.

7. Turn 360 degrees in one direction and start roll-out 20 degrees before desired heading.

8. Return to cruise configuration.

POWER - ON STALLS

1. Clearing turns, maintain altitude.

2. Panel checks.

3. Reduce power to 1500 RPM, Carb Heat on if applicable, maintain altitude with pitch.

4. Slow to Vr.

5. Carb Heat off if applicable, then smoothly add Full Power.

6. Smoothly increase pitch till stall occurs, if asked for a turning stall apply 15 degrees bank while increasing pitch.

7. Reduce pitch, level wings (rudder then aileron), verify recovery.

8. Return pitch to climb attitude, Vy, if obstacle Vx.

9. Return to heading and altitude.

POWER - OFF STALLS

1. Clearing turns, maintain altitude.

2. Panel checks.

3. Reduce power to idle, Carb Heat On if applicable, maintain altitude with pitch.

4. When airspeed in white arc apply Full Flaps.

5. Establish Glide - 1.3 Vso.

6. Pitch nose to just above horizon, increase pitch to maintain altitude till stall occurs, if asked for a turning stall bank aircraft 25 degrees after you pitch nose above horizon.

7. Reduce pitch, Carb Heat Off if applicable, apply Full Power, level wings (rudder then aileron).

8. Verify recovery, return pitch to level attitude, Flaps to 20 degrees or remove 1st notch depending on type of aircraft.

9. Verify altitude loss has been stopped with altimeter and VSI.

10. Pitch to climb attitude.

11. Verify positive rate of climb with altimeter and VSI.

12. Retract the rest of the flaps slowly, or one notch at a time.

13. Climb at Vy unless obstacle use Vx.

NOTE: If asked to perform an imminent stall, recover from the stall at first indication of buffeting.

SLOW FLIGHT

1. Clearing turns, maintain altitude.

2. Panel checks.

3. Power to 1500 RPM, Carb Heat ON if applicable.

4. Increase pitch slowly to maintain altitude, trim nose up.

5. When in the white arc add Full Flaps.

6. As aircraft slows power to maintain altitude, pitch to maintain airspeed, trim as required.

Clean - Vs-10 to Vs Dirty - Vso-10 to Vso.

7. When established in slow flight do two 90 degree turns, no more than 10 degrees bank.

8. Climb and descend as requested.

9. Remember make only small corrections.

10. Recover from maneuver.

a. Carb Heat OFF if applicable, apply Full Power.

b. Decrease pitch to maintain altitude, trim as required.

c. Remove flaps slowly as aircraft accelerates.

11. Return to cruise configuration.

DESCENT TO CONTROLLED FIELD

1. Obtain ATIS or AWOS information if available.

2. Contact tower ASAP when within 15 NM of airport, you must contact before entering Class D Airspace.

3. Descend to Traffic Pattern altitude before entering Class D Airspace.

4. Before descending:

a. Mixture Full Rich unless High Elevation.

b. Check Fuel, Master, Magnetos, Carb Heat and Radio Frequency.

DESCENT TO UNCONTROLLED FIELD

1. Contact UNICOM or MULTICOM ASAP when within 10 NM of airport. Check the closest automated weather if available for local wind direction and speed if available.

2. Cross field 500 feet above Traffic Pattern Altitude if wind direction is unknown to visually check runways, wind sock, and segmented circle for Traffic Patterns. Remain clear of Departure and Approach ends of the runways.

3. Begin descent to Traffic Pattern altitude to enter the 45 for Downwind or crosswind for the favored runway determined by the wind direction.

4. Make radio calls on all legs of the Traffic Pattern.

5. Before descending:

a. Mixture Full Rich, unless High elevation.

b. Check Fuel, Master, Magnetos, Carb Heat and Radio Frequency.

DEPARTING AIRFIELDS

1. Climb out on runway heading to within 300ft. pattern altitude then straight out or 45 degrees off runway heading to pattern altitude then on course or as directed by tower.

2. After passing pattern altitude lower pitch and make two gentle "S" turns for collision avoidance then back to climb attitude. Gentle turns should be made at least every 1,000 ft. for collision avoidance.

3. After reaching cruise altitude, level off, set throttle and mixture.
