1.112
State the angle of attack and velocity, compared to
L/D MAX, at which an airplane achieves maximum glide
endurance.
1.113
Describe the effects of changes in weight, altitude,
configuration, wind, and propeller feathering on
maximum glide range and maximum glide endurance
performance and airspeed.
1.114
Define the regions of normal and reverse command as
they relate to maximum endurance angle of attack and
velocity.
1.115
Describe the relationship between velocity and
throttle setting required to maintain level flight
within the region of normal and reverse command.
