And while I might be somewhat biased, you can’t go wrong attending an AOPA Fly-In. Our events have grown significantly over the years, expanding to the two-day format in 2017. Our opening fly-in of the season in Missoula, Montana was our first visit to this part of the country, and it won’t be our last. Pilots had several opportunities to experience my favorite type of flying – getting out into the backcountry. We scheduled three different fly-outs around Missoula, one capped off with a potato bake sponsored by the 1,000 nm | 260 ktas | 6 people Recreational Aviation Foundation, and a trip to the Museum of Mountain Flying’s “Always” movie set. Our second fly-in this season takes us to one of the oldest cities in the United States—Santa Fe, New Mexico, September 14 and 15, sure to be rich with culture and history. Attendees will also have a great opportunity to hone their aviation skills through workshops ranging from owner-performed aircraft maintenance to VFR backcountry flying adventure and skills, and IFR beginner and refresher courses. Aspiring photographers can combine their love of photography and flying with a workshop in aviation photography. Once the crisp autumn air rolls in, you can find us in Carbondale, Illinois, October 5 and 6. Attendees will enjoy a vibrant music scene and gourmet cuisine, along with magnificent cliffs, spectacular hiking trails, and picturesque lakes. Our last fly-in of the season will be in Gulf Shores, Alabama, October 26 and 27. Known for its white sandy beaches and warm blue water, attendees will be able to enjoy the beautiful views and hopefully, some much-deserved rest and relaxation. 1,343 nm | 213 ktas | 6 people For more information on each of our fly-ins visitwww.aopa.org/flyins . We look forward to seeing you this fly-in season and wish you nothing but safe travels and blue skies! Mark R.

The controller asymptotically tracks a time-parameterized position reference, and depends on an orientation look-up rule to detemine the vehicle orientation from a desired acceleration. A coordinated-flight look-up rule compatible with the controller provides a nominal level of capability for traditional flight trajec- tories. A generalized coordinated look-up rule compatible with the controller provides more advanced capability, including stability for high angle of attack and hovering maneuvers, at the expense of an additional requirement from the reference trajectory. Basic simulation results are used to verify the controller, and a simulation software framework is described which will enable more extensive simulation and provide a platform for the final controller implementation.

  • 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.

Slow flight should be practiced from straight flight requires a certain minimum airspeed. This glides, straight-and-level flight, and from medium critical airspeed depends on certain factors, such as banked gliding and level flight turns. Slow flight at gross weight, load factors, and existing density altitude. approach speeds should include slowing the airplane The minimum speed below which further controlled smoothly and promptly from cruising to approach flight is impossible is called the stalling speed. An speeds without changes in altitude or heading, and important feature of pilot training is the development determining and using appropriate power and trim of the ability to estimate the margin of safety above the settings. Slow flight at approach speed should also stalling speed. Also, the ability to determine the include configuration changes, such as landing gear characteristic responses of any airplane at different and flaps, while maintaining heading and altitude. airspeeds is of great importance to the pilot. The student pilot, therefore, must develop this awareness in FLIGHT AT MINIMUM CONTROLLABLE order to safely avoid stalls and to operate an airplane AIRSPEED This maneuver demonstrates the flight characteristics correctly and safely at slow airspeeds. and degree of controllability of the airplane at its minimum flying speed. By definition, the term “flight SLOW FLIGHT at minimum controllable airspeed” means a speed at Slow flight could be thought of, by some, as a speed which any further increase in angle of attack or load that is less than cruise.

This revised guidebook is designed to help communities and airports work cooperatively to plan for and establish compatible land use around airports and work towards mitigating existing incompatible conditions. Land use compatibility is a significant, yet often unrecognized, factor in aviation safety. When asked to describe an airport safety-related matter, many people refer to the perimeter fencing or the security checkpoint within an air carrier airport. Seldom does the average citizen recognize that bright lights, residential developments, wetlands, and tall towers pose hazards to airports, their users, and nearby residents.

  • Easy Access Rules for Sailplanes
    Easy Access Rules for Sailplanes EASA eRules: aviation rules for the 21st century Rules and regulations are the core of the European Union civil aviation system. The aim of the EASA eRules project is to make them accessible in an efficient and reliable way to stakeholders. EASA eRules will be a comprehensive, single system for the drafting, sharing and storing of rules. It will be the single source for all aviation safety rules applicable to European airspace users. It will offer easy (online) access to all rules and regulations as well as new and innovative applications such as rulemaking process automation, stakeholder consultation, cross-referencing, and comparison with ICAO and third countries’ standards. To achieve these ambitious objectives, the EASA eRules project is structured in ten modules to cover all aviation rules and innovative functionalities. The EASA eRules system is developed and implemented in close cooperation with Member States and aviation industry to ensure that all its capabilities are relevant and effective.
