8. LESSON 8: PRECAUTIONARY LANDING
Training methodology:
The instructor practices approach to suitably selected area, with engine operating. The instructor
assesses student’s selection of area for landing, and performance of the maneuver by the student.
During this practice, it is allowed to review the area, having assessed the slope and obstacles in the
vicinity, from at least 150 ft AGL.
The student, on instructor’s request, selects area for landing and performs approach, without completing the
landing; on instructor’s signal, the student increases throttle and interrupts the maneuver at safe altitude.
Conditions for passing: The student is able to select area suitable for landing, review the area safely, and
plan the landing using engine power.
9. LESSON 9: EMERGENCY LANDING
PRACTICE
Flight level is 1000ft / 300m AGL –
1600ft / 500m AGL Training methodology:
The instructor reduces engine power to idle on downwind of the traffic pattern. Approach must end on the
runway without further use of engine power. The student, with engine at idle or switched off, performs
approach to 1/3 of runway length, and full landing,
The instructor does not signal the time of reducing
engine power to idle beforehand.
At least three last landings from minimum of 15 emergency landings must be performed with engine
switched off. The instructor is responsible for safe performance of this exercise, taking into account the
altitude, position of aircraft in traffic pattern, wind speed and direction, and other operating conditions.
Having mastered emergency landing at an airfield, the instructor and the student leave the airfield and
enter the practice area, where the instructor reduces engine power to idle; the instructor does not signal
the time of reducing engine power to idle beforehand, and the student must select area for landing, plan
the landing, and perform approach onto selected area, without performing actual landing.
The instructor must interrupt the approach at 150ft AGL, not lower.
Conditions for passing: The student is able to plan the landing on assigned section of runway without use
of engine power. He is able to fly safely, plan the landing, and land with engine off. He is able to use
sideslips to correct the approach angle. In the practice area, the student is able to select area suitable for
landing and plan the landing correctly.
10. LESSON 10: CROSSWIND TAKE-OFF AND LANDING
Training methodology:
The student practices take-offs and landings with crosswind, up to the limit defined in aircraft manual.
The student focuses on compensating the drift. When the student learns how to use the wing low method
when landing in crosswind conditions. The instructor explains to the student the amount of aileron and
rudder deflections needed, which depends on the strength of the crosswind.
The student practices compensation for crosswind during take-off, climb out, descent, flare, after
touchdown, and during landing roll out.
Conditions for passing: The student is able to maintain correct controls of the aircraft during take-off,
descent, flare and roll out in crosswind conditions.
