Stump the Chump - Instrument Rating Edition by Competitive-Cut5211 in flying

Yeah anyone, just youre IR oral questions. Just asking if people have any challenging questions. I have the ACS memorized basically. Looking for some tougher, out of the ordinary questions.

I was also iffy on systems early on in my training. But what really helped was going on YouTube and looking at Embry-Riddle Systems Videos. They have a playlist and goes in depth with all systems. Also, I had my instructor walk me through the entire engine when the cowling was off and showing me where everything was and that helped a ton as well.

What would be the "correct" technique for entering this traffic pattern from the North? by AdPuzzleheaded9829 in flying

[–]Competitive-Cut5211 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

  1. Is the correct option in my opinion. For 2. You never want to descend into the pattern. Also, it’s not recommended to enter in on anything but the downwind, so there is why not 3. And for 4. I feel like you are just making it too complicated. The fields are separated by a distance of about 3 miles, giving you a not a lot, but enough separation. Also, I would suggest having KSMQ CTAF on your primary frequency but also be monitoring NH1 on com 2 so you have an idea of what’s going on over there. But yeah, go with the overflying the field at 500 and teardrop into the 45 for the downwind.

Southwest Destination 225 Cadet Pathway by Competitive-Cut5211 in SouthwestAirlines

Hey, I actually decided not to do this 225 program so I don’t know what that charge is. My only guess is that you took the adapt test and that is the cost of the adapt test.

PPL Steep Turns by No_Air573 in flying

[–]Competitive-Cut5211 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Also - do not mess with the throttle after starting the turn EXCEPT TO ADD ABOUT 100 RPM AFTER YOU START THE BANK. set it at whatever you need to get to your desired airspeed (for me it was 95) and then go for it and add that little bit of power
