In making this determination, the commissioner will consider the applicable factors set out at 17 AAC 45.900 and the following: (1) the number of aircraft based at the airport, other than those based on leased premises, the demand for transient aircraft fee parking, and the amount of space available for assigned-space aircraft parking at the airport; (2) the potential impact of assigned-space aircraft parking fees on airport users; and (3) the department's estimate of the cost to implement the requirements of 17 AAC 45.500 - 17 AAC 45.590 at the airport compared to the potential revenue the department would receive for assigned-space aircraft parking at the airport. (b) The department will inform the public that the commissioner has designated an airport for assigned-space aircraft parking by giving notice in accordance with 17 AAC 45.400.

    January - February 2010 Recreational Aircraft Association Canada www.raa.ca The Voice of Canadian Amateur Aircraft Builders $6.95 Elevated: Angus Watt's CH-750 Elevated: The original Zenith 701 was designed as an Angus Watt’s Ch-750 ultralight go-anywhere all metal bush plane that could be plans built by anyone with a 4 ft tabletop bending brake and a pair of snips. It was rarely described as a thing of beauty but so well does it fulfill its mission that these planes are found all over the world. They are inexpensive to construct, and because of their leading edge slats they can get in and out of extremely short patches of clear ground. 22 Recreational Flyer January - February 2010 Elevated: Angus Watt’s Ch-750 WITH THE ADVENT of the Light Sport category in and the only part interchangeable with the 701 is the US, Chris Heintz saw the need for an updated the signature Zenith all-flying rudder.

  • Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’S Note to Flightlab Students
    Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’s Note to Flightlab Students The collection of documents assembled here, under the general title “Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight,” covers a lot of ground. That’s because unusual-attitude training is the perfect occasion for aerodynamics training, and in turn depends on aerodynamics training for success. I don’t expect a pilot new to the subject to absorb everything here in one gulp. That’s not necessary; in fact, it would be beyond the call of duty for most—aspiring test pilots aside. But do give the contents a quick initial pass, if only to get the measure of what’s available and how it’s organized. Your flights will be more productive if you know where to go in the texts for additional background. Before we fly together, I suggest that you read the section called “Axes and Derivatives.” This will introduce you to the concept of the velocity vector and to the basic aircraft response modes. If you pick up a head of steam, go on to read “Two-Dimensional Aerodynamics.” This is mostly about how pressure patterns form over the surface of a wing during the generation of lift, and begins to suggest how changes in those patterns, visible to us through our wing tufts, affect control. If you catch any typos, or statements that you think are either unclear or simply preposterous, please let me know. Thanks.

  • Maneuver Descriptions
    2017-2018 Senior Pattern Association Section III Maneuver Descriptions NOTE: MANEUVER DESCRIPTIONS THAT FOLLOW ARE TAKEN VERBATIM FROM THE APPROPRIATE AMA RULE BOOKS FROM WHICH THE MANEUVERS WERE TAKEN. THE ONE EXCEPTION IS FOR THE SQUARE HORIZONTAL EIGHT, FOR WHICH EVERY APPEARANCE IN THE AMA RULE BOOK ENDED AS AN INCOMPLETE DESCRIPTION. THE SPA BOARD HAS CREATED WHAT WE THINK WOULD BE THE APPROPRIATE ENDING, WHICH IS SHOWN ON PAGE 34 IN ITALICS. Anatomy of an SPA Maneuver by Phil Spelt, SPA 177, AMA 1294 SPA pilots are flying what is called “Precision Aerobatics,” in the official AMA publications” -- the old-time way (pre turnaround). The emphasis in that name is on the word “Precision.” That means pilots are supposed to display precise control of their aircraft in front of the judges. This precision should, ideally, be shown from the moment the plane is placed on the runway until it stops at the end of the landing rollout. Technically, the judges are only supposed to “judge” during the actual maneuvers, but they will notice either wild or tame turnarounds – whether deliberately or accidentally. An SPA maneuver consists of five sections, which can be viewed as an onion sliced through the middle vertically – so there are 2 pairs of layers, or parts, surrounding the actual maneuver in the center, as illustrated. The outer pair (sections 1 and 5) comprises the “free flight” area, which is used to turn the aircraft around and get it lined up to enter the next maneuver. Most pilots use a Split-S maneuver for the turnaround, thus maintaining the track of the plane at the distance from the runway at which the maneuvers are performed.

  • NEWS RELEASE Continental Aerospace Technologies
    NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release Continental Aerospace Technologies™ announces partnership with Piper Aircraft® to launch the Pilot 100 training aircraft Mobile, Alabama, April 2, 2019 — Continental®, an AVIC International Holding (HK) LTD company (HKEX: 232.HK), announces the partnership with Piper Aircraft® to launch the Pilot 100 and Pilot 100i training aircraft. Piper Aircraft® has selected the certified Continental IO-370-DA3A engine for the new Pilot 100/100i single engine trainer. After careful consideration, Piper® determined that the engine met their requirements to answer increasing requests from flight schools of all sizes for a robust, proven trainer platform at a lower price point in both VFR and IFR configurations With an all-time high demand for new pilots, Piper Aircraft® has announced the Pilot 100/100i, to meet the needs of a wide variety of training schools and curriculums. Based on the PA-28 airframe, one of the most successful training platforms in the history of general aviation, Piper® combined an airframe, avionics and engine package that allows the aircraft to be very aggressively priced and fills the need for a trainer tailored to the primary single- engine training needs of these schools. The Pilot 100/100i allows schools to invest in new initial trainers at a price point that is compatible with their needs while relying on a proven and tried design. “We congratulate Piper Aircraft® for their vision, ability to gauge the market trends, and their commitment to the training market. We are very excited to collaborate with Piper® on the new certified engine design. We worked with the Piper® engineering team to make sure that they benefit not only from an outstanding value, but also from all the enhancements that we have incorporated in our new engine line.
