Lesson 4: Slow Flight and Stall Recovery
Dual—ground: 0.5, flight: 1.0
Objective:
Introduce student to slow flight and stall characteristics.
Discussion topics:
fundamentals of slow flight and stalls
spin awareness
Review:
constant airspeed climb and descent
turns to headings
practice area familiarization
Introduce:
flight at various airspeeds from cruise to slow flight
maneuvering during slow flight emphasizing correct use of rudder to negate increased adverse yaw at slow airspeeds
power-off stalls and recovery
power-on stalls and recovery
Completion standards:
Demonstration of understanding of stall and recovery concept
Demonstrates understanding of slow-flight concept through flight at minimum controllable airspeed
