How do we turn?
Wings & a prayer
Magic of Flight
Slow your roll!
Airport Traffic Patterns
100

Turn the yoke, move this control surface

What are ailerons?

100

The surface that most affects ability to fly

What are the main wings

100

This aerodynamic force works against gravity

What is LIFT

100

Slowing to land is aided by these...

What are FLAPS?

100

Climbing out, you turn onto this leg of rectangular pattern

What is CROSSWIND?

200

Controls LEVEL turns, via foot pedals

What are RUDDERS

200

This axis of flight controlled by the RUDDER

What is the VERTICLE AXIS?

200

the DOWNWARD force that works against LIFT

What is  WEIGHT or GRAVITY?

200

When adding flaps, there is a caution/concern

What is the SPEED LIMITATION.  Dont over speed.

200

You are turning PERPENDICULAR to the airport heading, on landing approach when you enter this pattern leg

What is LEFT OR RIGHT BASE leg?

300

Using this surface prevents side skidding in air known as SIDE SLIP...using this surface provides standard turns

What is RUDDER APPLICATION with your feet while turning.

300

Movement around the LONGITUDINAL AXES (nose to tail)

What is ROLL?

300

The force that propels an aircraft

What is THRUST?

300

 All 4 factors of aerodynamics

What are LIFT, WEIGHT, THRUST & DRAG

300

This is how they label runways...for example, RNWY 05...

What is RUNWAY HEADING?  Runway 050 heading.

400

Controlled turn uses these 2 wing surfaces simultaneously to turn

What are RUDDER AND AILERON?

400

Movement around the LATERAL AXIS (wingtip to wingtip) is called

What is PITCH?

400

What resists forward motion?

What is DRAG?

400

Your final flap setting is made in this airport pattern landing phase

What is FINAL LEG of airport pattern

400

You are flying opposite direction of ACTIVE RUNWAY, on this leg of airport traffic pattern...

What is LEFT or RIGHT, DOWNWIND?

500

Push yoke forward, this surface causes a decent...

What are ELEVATORS?

500

IMPORTANT:

The 3 AXIS OF FLIGHT controlled by RUDDER, ELEVATOR and AILERONS

What are YAW (vertical Axis), PITCH (Lateral Axis) & ROLL (Longitudinal Axis)

500

DAILY DOUBLE!

How do you know if your plane is correctly loaded for a flight

What is WEIGHT/BALANCE or CG Computation?

500

3 settings of this wing surface starting abeam landing point on runway, while on airport traffic pattern

What are 10, 20 and 30 degree flap settings?

500

Traffic pattern SOUTH of runway 27...

What are LEFT TURN PATTERNS?
