Common errors by Dash-2, Dash-3, or Dash-4
1.
Problem: too much nose-to-tail for Dash-3 and Dash-4 due to
failure to anticipate power requirements
Correction:
a.
Anticipate power requirements
b.
Average out movements of aircraft between you and lead
2.
Problem: erratic formation due to each aircraft flying formation on
preceding aircraft instead of on lead
Correction: all aircraft must reference lead for stepdown and
preceding aircraft for lateral separation
