-
- STAGE I OBJECTIVES: These lessons involve a review
of VFR pilot operations, and an introduction to "Attitude Instrument Flying"
which consists of instrument scan, instrument interpretation, and positive aircraft
control. Although you learn these skills separately, and in a deliberate sequence, the
ojective of this stage will be your ability to integrate these skills into unified,
smooth, positive control responses to maintain any prescribed flight path.
-
- STAGE I COMPLETION STANDARDS:
- You will demonstrate positive aircraft conrol,
solely by reference to instruments, in a variety of circumstances. You will maintain
specified altitude within 100 feet, assigned heading within 10 degrees, and desired
airspeed within 10 knots.
|
-
-
- STAGE II OBJECTIVES: These lessons are to develop
the skills necessary for performing instrument approaches, and are repeated as necessary
to gain proficiency.
-
- STAGE II COMPLETION STANDARDS:
- You will demonstrate positive aircraft conrol,
solely by reference to instruments, while executing a variety of IFR operations and while
conducting instrument approaches. You will maintain specified altitude within 50 feet,
assigned heading within 5 degrees, and desired airspeed within 5 knots.
|
-
-
- STAGE III OBJECTIVES: These lessons usually
require 4 or more flights, and involve Cross-Country IFR under a variety of circumstances,
including a PAR approach, if available. The objective is to develope and enhance IFR
navigation skills, with emphasis on utilizing the IFR system during flights away from the
local area.
-
- STAGE III COMPLETION STANDARDS:
- You will demonstrate positive aircraft conrol,
solely by reference to instruments, while executing IFR operations and instrument
approaches while on cross-country flights. You will maintain specified altitude within 50
feet, assigned heading within 5 degrees, and desired airspeed within 5 knots, and comply
with all departure, enroute and arrival clearances and procedures.
|
-
-
- STAGE IV OBJECTIVES: This stage requires several
more flights, and involve local approach procedures, including a PAR approach, if
available. The objective is to increase IFR proficiency with an increased workload.
-
- STAGE IV COMPLETION STANDARDS:
- You will increase proficiency in all aspects of
IFR and VFR operations, by demonstrating positive aircraft conrol, solely by reference to
instruments. You will maintain specified altitude within 50 feet, assigned heading within
5 degrees, desired airspeed within 5 knots, and no greater than 3/4 scale deflection of
off-course indications during approaches. These are review lessons which should be
repeated as often as necessary, in preparation for the practical test.
