Two stories; Tips and Tricks for Flying with the Garmin GFC500 AFCS Autopilot on Page 33, and Pilot’s Guide to Autopilots on Page 40, will be of interest to you if you have or are looking to install an autopilot in your Cessna. I asked at the beginning of this column how aviation is like a leisure suit. That was a trick question, they are not alike. While the form of the leisure suit—the polyester fabric— may last forever, the idea of it was short-lived and, some would say, ill-conceived. Aviation is different. The form of it may change over time. It may evolve from fabric-covered wings and hand-propping, to self-landing aircraft, but the idea of it is eternal. Blue skies, P.S. If you have a photo of yourself in a leisure suit, I’d love to see it. Bonus points if you are standing by an airplane in a leisure suit.

  • 11ADOBL04 December 2010
    11ADOBL04 December 2010 Use of rudder on Airbus A300-600/A310 (extracted from former FCOM Bulletin N°15/1 – Subject N°40) Reason for issue On February 8th, 2002, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), in cooperation with the French Bureau d'Enquêtes et d'Analyses (BEA), issued recommendations that aircraft manufacturers re-emphasize the structural certification requirements for the rudder and vertical stabilizer, showing how some maneuvers can result in exceeding design lim- its and even lead to structural failure. The purpose of this Bulletin is to re-emphasize proper operational use of the rudder, highlight certification requirements and rud- der control design characteristics. Yaw control General In flight, yaw control is provided by the rudder, and directional stability is provided by the vertical stabilizer. The rudder and vertical stabilizer are sized to meet the two following objectives: Provide sufficient lateral control of the aircraft during crosswind takeoffs and landings, within the published crosswind limits (refer to FCOM Operating Limitations chapter). Provide positive aircraft control under conditions of engine failure and maximum asymmetric thrust, at any speed above Vmcg (minimum control speed - on ground). The vertical stabilizer and the rudder must be capable of generating sufficient yawing moments to maintain directional control of the aircraft. The rudder deflection, necessary to achieve these yawing moments, and the resulting sideslip angles place significant aerodynamic loads on the rudder and on the vertical stabilizer. Both are designed to sustain loads as prescribed in the JAR/FAR 25 certification requirements which define several lateral loading conditions (maneuver, gust loads and asymmetric loads due to engine failure) leading to the required level of structural strength.

Safety issues in the report focused on Boeing 737 rudder malfunctions, including rudder reversals; the adequacy of the 737 rudder system design; unusual attitude training for air carrier pilots; and flight data recorder parameters. Safety recommendations concerning these issues were addressed to the Federal Aviation Administration. The National Transportation Safety Board is an independent Federal Agency dedicated to promoting aviation, raiload, highway, marine, pipeline, and hazardous materials safety. Established in 1967, the agency is mandated by Congress through the Independent Safety Board Act of 1974 to investigate transportation accidents, study transportation safety issues, and evaluate the safety effectiveness of government agencies involved in transportation. The Safety Board makes public its actions and decisions through accident reports, safety studies, special investigation reports, safety recommendations, and statistical reviews. Recent publications are available in their entirety at http://www.ntsb.gov/.

    MEDIA RELEASE Broomfield, Colorado, USA, 6 July 2021 EXTENSIVE LIST OF NEW FEATURES FOR THE PILATUS PC-24 SUPER VERSATILE JET Based on customer feedback from over 50,000 hours of fleet operations, Pilatus has incorporated numerous new features into Super Versatile Jets which come off the production line from this year onward. As it is Pilatus‘ core philosophy to continuously improve and provide support over the life of the aircraft, many of these new features can be retrofitted in earlier serial number PC-24s. Starting with the passenger experience, the cabin features new executive seats which provide more comfort, more intuitive controls, and lighter weight. They fully recline to a flat position. The seats are attached to the cabin’s flat floor with quick -release mechanisms to facilitate rapid seating configuration changes on the ground. In lieu of the standard forward left-hand coat closet, operators may now choose to install a galley with options for a microwave oven, a coffee or espresso maker, a generous work surface, dedicated ice storage, and capacity for standard catering units. Smarter avionics For PC-24 flight crews, Pilatus and Honeywell have continued to develop and refine the Advanced Cockpit Environment (ACE). A touch-screen avionics controller replaces the multi-function controller as standard equipment. The touch-screen controller was first introduced in the PC-12 NGX, and has proven to be very well liked for entering and editing flight plan data, changing radio frequencies, and controlling the weather radar. It features a slip-resistant design around the bezel for stability and input precision in turbulence.
