How should the maneuver be changed if traffic is encountered

Immediately discontinue

200

What is the French term that serves as the origin of the Chandelle’s name

Monter en chandelle. (Translated as “to climb like a candle”.)

200

What FAA document do we use for testing Chandelle's

ACS  

200

The goal of the chandelle is to gain as much _____________for a given bank angle and power setting

altitude

200

What is the appropriate configuration for maximum performance climb

clean

400

How do you know when to start rolling out of the bank

When the VISUAL 90 degree point has been reached

400

Practical uses for the chandelle during general aviation operations

Evading terrain, Simultaneously climbing and changing directions, Evading ground obstacles while climbing out of an airport, Traffic Avoidance

400

Per the Cessna POH how much does the entry speed change when going from a Normal to a Utility category

It doesn’t

400

Which primary flight instrument needs more pressure as the maneuver is completed and airspeed is just above stall

Rudder

400

What airspeed is used for chandelle

Cessna 105 KIAS/ Archer 100 KIAS. This is based on the weight of the airplane which will affect the maneuvering speed.

600

What would cause an immediate failure during the maneuver

Stalling at any point

600

Which pilot group famously used the Chandelle in combat

WWII Japanese Zero Pilots

600

What are the AGL tolerances of this maneuver

1,500 AGL

600

A chandelle in which the pull-up produces a load factor greater than ______will not result in as great a gain in altitude

2G

600

Establish and maintain a bank no more than _____ when starting the chandelle

30 degrees

800

What would cause maximum altitude not to be reached

Not maintaining a consistent pitch

800

Which country’s airforce adopted the chandelle for combat first

France

800

What maneuver can be substituted for the Chandelle

Lazy Eights

800

As airspeed decreases and angle of attack increases, this margin becomes smaller near the end of the chandelle

What is the stall margin

800

This is the primary reason for adding full power at the beginning of a chandelle

What is to achieve maximum climb performance

1000

If the initial bank is too shallow, what would the result be

stall

1000

What year was the Chandelle first demonstrated

1913

1000

What regulation states you need to clear the area

AIM 4-4-15

1000

This aerodynamic condition can occur if coordination is not maintained and one wing exceeds the critical angle of attack first

What is an accelerated stall

1000

Explain the steps during the 90 degree point to the 180 degree point

Maintain a constant pitch attitude and a coordinated, constant rate, rollout of the turn
