Figure 6: TURN PATTERN
As you complete the second 30-degree AOB turn, reverse into a 45-degree AOB turn for 90 degrees of
heading change. As you enter the 45-degree AOB turn, you will need to increase the power and adjust
back stick pressure to achieve a little higher nose attitude than for the 30-degree AOB turn in order to
maintain a constant altitude and airspeed. As the aircraft approaches the reversal heading, remember to
lead the reversal. As the wings approach the level position, decrease the nose attitude in order to maintain
a constant altitude. As you continue the rolling reversal and as you approach 45 degrees AOB, you will
need to adjust back stick pressure and the power in order to continue to maintain a constant altitude and
airspeed.
At the completion of the second 45-degree AOB turn, lead the reversal and roll into a 60-degree AOB turn
in the opposite direction for 120 degrees of heading change. Remember, more power and back stick
pressure will be required to maintain a constant airspeed and altitude. In the 60-degree AOB reversal, use
the same technique as in the 45-degree AOB reversal, except that the amount of heading lead and nose
attitude change will be greater. Upon completion of the second 60-degree AOB turn, resume straight and
level flight at 250 KIAS.
