Normal Flight
Familiarization
Execute a coordinated, level 30-degree AOB turn for 90 degrees of heading change with reversal while
maintaining altitude and optimum AOA. Descend 500 ft at 500 fpm by reducing the power approximately
5% below what is required to maintain level flight while maintaining optimum AOA. Fifty feet prior to
reaching the desired altitude, increase the power and adjust the nose attitude to resume level flight.
Execute another coordinated, level 30-degree AOB turn for 90 degrees of heading change with reversal
while maintaining altitude and optimum AOA.
NOTE: This exercise may be adjusted for weather and/or MOA boundaries.
Climb 500 ft by increasing the power by approximately 5% above what is required to maintain level flight
and climb at 500 fpm while maintaining optimum AOA. Fifty feet prior to reaching the desired altitude,
reduce the power and adjust the nose attitude to resume level flight.
Resume normal flight by increasing the power to MRT, retracting the speed brakes, and raising the landing
gear. Raise the flaps and slats at 140 KIAS. Maintain level flight while accelerating to 250 KIAS. Trim as
required to relieve stick pressure as the aircraft accelerates. Reduce the power as necessary to maintain
250 KIAS in level flight.
