Though the current system keeps telling everyone to pull the control wheel to start climb, merely adding thrust does the same thing. It is wise to begin your final review for the test with a thorough understanding of the ACS document, available on FAA.gov. The new CFI ACS is one way of inducing and enforcing an emphasis on attitude flying. This is especially true in light of the FAA’s recent change to the way slow flight, minimum controllable airspeed is now supposed to be taught. body p { Another good point you made is that experience does not lead necessarily to better safety; complacency and rust can cause a marked *decrease* in safety with increasing hours! We also offer ground school and all supplies! There is a failure in the basic instructional understanding of aircraft control; this is transmitted down through our whole training system.

flight training questions. Helping pilots train efficiently by making them aware of what’s new only works if pilots are informed about what is obsolete and no longer on the test. SAFE and allied professionals are poised to help advance this initiative in basic flying skills and instructor professionalism. While poor decisions don’t necessarily lead to bad outcomes, I think most of us would agree bad decisions nearly always margins and make a bad outcome more likely and possibly much worse. Now offering flight simulator time for students at $45 per hour with your instructor or for pilots at $55 per hour (no instructor required). img#wpstats{display:none} Perth-based ACS Flight Training have launched a sponsorship programme designed to assist the successful individual to achieve the Flight Instructor Rating and secure full-time employment with ACS Flight Training as a Flight Instructor. A small aircraft of 2,000 lbs. But overall, absent both increased recurrent training in several key areas (risk assessment, S & R skills, decision making, EP, familiarity with increasingly complex avionics, etc.) A quick read of the NTSB accident db brings up lots of very high time, highly experienced pilots who made incredibly poor decisions. There are many highly qualified aviation educators out there! .wf-active .entry-title a { } When are they going to decide to define the problems so they can be fixed. For example, landing on a highway (no damage to aircraft nor other property, no injuries to any occupant nor to any person on the ground) may or MAY NOT be called an incident according to the individual inspector’s opinion. Current PTS for CFI-A, CFI-I, & MEI. FAA Missed ACS Codes for Commercial Pilot Exams. border: none; âLetâs do a 360 and get out of here.â. I donât believe you will find much dissent among those of us who are most experienced and knowledgeable about flight training and testing. Flight Instructor Practical Test Standards Flight Engineer Practical Test Standards Aircraft Dispatcher Practical Test Standards. We all have witnessed pilots who did not receive good attitude based instruction from the first lesson. This syllabus is written to satisfy the requirements of both 14 CFR Parts 141 and 61. Have we gone totally mad? The new CFI ACS is the right time and place for much more emphasis on teaching attitude flying. It’s a GOOD thing that pilots by and large manage a very serious issue so the outcome is either a non-event (i.e. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. td.recentcommentsavatarend, td.recentcommentsavatartop { The balance we are trying to strike in the CFI-ACS is more confident, capable CFIs that also teach by outside attitude references as primary. Maybe we should look at letting the airplane fly. Everyone is writing about what they think is wrong but no one is providing a solution. Sine of 6 degrees is .1 so one-tenth of the thrust will be component-lift. FWIW, unlike the NTSB 830 definition of “accident”, an “incident” can be much more amorphous and ambiguous. Setting the elevator trim to approximate Vx, steering with rudder and controlling altitude with changes of thrust. font-size: 2rem; What most often happens in current training programs is this; background knowledge â informing no fundamental concept – then techniques and procedures drawn directly from the laws of physics. padding: 0px 0px 2px 10px; The CFI ACS is the place where a renewed emphasis on the teaching of attitude flying concepts and techniques can spark an industry-wide increase in understanding and application of correct control paradigms. If you’re teaching the wrong thing, I don’t see how that rates as any improvement. font-size: 2.6rem; Basic knowledge and proficiency so they can safely educate the next generation. For the student, standardization of maneuvers based training allows them to see the procedure ahead of time and practice it in a simulator, procedural trainer or by "chair flying".This Cessna 172 Quick Reference Guide contains all of the Private - Commercial maneuvers in the current ACS. Other ways LOC occurs are not even mentioned. This would also reduce the pattern time for initial training. Flight Instructor certificate (FI) in the airplane category. CFIs have to know this to teach it or all is lost. _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-75571901-1']); That handbook’s many-faceted update is one of several listed in the FAA reference document What's New and Upcoming in Airman Testing. But this also points to a questionable paradigm. Universally, pilots chase the (lagging) airspeed needle instead of flying attitude as primary. We feel the new Flight Instructor Airplane ACS should have multiple task elements that require a deeper understanding of aerodynamics and a serious requirement to teach each maneuver using aircraft attitude as the primary control reference. Becoming a flight instructor is one of the most challenging and rewarding things a pilot can do. What most often happens in current training programs is this; background knowledge â informing no fundamental concept – then techniques and procedures drawn directly from the laws of physics. Associate Editor Web Dan Namowitz has been writing for AOPA in a variety of capacities since 1991. } The fact is that giving a new student a firm grasp of this basic concept, as well as effective instruction in its application from the first lesson, are the most important aspects of the entire training process. Bring reference material, backup information, discussion materials or some lesson plans for maneuvers. table.recentcommentsavatartop img.avatar, table.recentcommentsavatarend img.avatar { I agree we cannot require MCFI level standards for beginners but we do need mentoring or oversight to assure CFI growth and continuity. display: inline !important; But due to the vagaries of the training and testing process, a pilot without a good conceptual foundation in attitude flying will eventually pass his or her check ride.Â. Enter your email address to follow this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email. AOPA has been a strong advocate for the switch to ACS as a leading participant in the FAAâs Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committeeâs Airman Certification System Working Group that developed the new standards. One item now removed from airman knowledge test banks is any question about the hazardous in-flight weather advisory service now that the service has been discontinued. I continue to get applicants for flight tests who have never done a stall in a turn (though it is in the ACS and an examiner can ask for it) and one reason is their CFI is also uncomfortable performing this maneuver. Nor is it unusual for over confident pilots to engage in low level flight. Networking with highly experienced CFIâs and DPEâs, we find universal agreement that this lack of understanding is present at every level of the pilot population, and is an issue for both safety and training efficacy. LOC-I because a high time pilot decided to fly with a known mechanical deficiency isn’t uncommon. As you probably know, since 2016 the long-used practical test standards volumes have been giving way gradually to the enhanced and more fully integrated airman certification standards, with the earliest ACS volumes already moving beyond their first revisions. (When we poll pilots usually 70% do not know lift is equal on the wings in a coordinated turn or that the tail of a standard Part 23 A/C is providing downward force) This ignorance has consequences, most pilots fear any turn past 30 degrees, and will not slip (they claim it’s dangerous?) Hi John, thanks for commenting. ACS SIM CENTER PROUDLY PRESENTS OUR STATE OF THE ART FLY-IT SIMULATOR IN LAKE HAVASU CITY! ACS & PTS. and proficiency from recent flight experience — all of which come with associated costs that directly impact the population of active and new pilots — it doesn’t appear we’re chasing an attainable goal. True or false: Questions about ADS-B Out were added to the Private Pilot–Airplane and Helicopter Airman Knowledge Test Bank effective March 30, 2020. Enter any combination name, airport, mile radius, zip code, US state or CFI certifications to find flight instructors. The tasks or maneuvers/procedures from the FARs and ACS are categorized into a three stage flight training program along with the ground school curriculum for the FAA knowledge test. } .rtl td.recentcommentstexttop { What an amazing opportunity to raise the level of CFI skill, knowledge and judgment and make a difference! ©2020 Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, How to track the FAA’s topic-turnover timetable, How to track the FAA's topic-turnover timetable, What's New and Upcoming in Airman Testing. The flight instructor certificate is made up of two requirements: aeronautical knowledge and flight training. Attitude control as aircraft control must be introduced early (as it is in the Airplane Flying Handbook) and often, as the fundamental concept which enables precise and accurate aircraft control techniques. Have a Wonderful Holiday; Grateful and Present! As that process continues, quite a few original ACS versions are now in development, as learners preparing for private and commercial pilot practical tests in helicopters, as well as helicopter instrument ratings, will be interested to know. no accident) or a minor inconvenience (i.e. Class Rating Instructor (CRI) - Real benefit is it can be added to a PPL. Enter your airport code. Post was not sent - check your email addresses! CFI ENDORSEMENT LABELS. I too watched the NTSB round table discussion on LOC-I. This will be around ten feet forward of the center of lift so is contributing 600-700 ft.-lbs. Control of the aircraft is always achieved through attitude control combined with a proper power setting. ga.src = ('https:' === document.location.protocol ? body.custom-background { background-color: #e6ddd0; } Canada has a more thoughtful CFI system with 4 separate levels with graduated privileges. We are always seeking more input on aviation improvements and flight safety. At Vy the thrust component-lift will be 6 to 8 degrees above the direction of motion. With hands-off techniques, the aircraft establishes its own attitude. With the creation of a new ACS for CFI (now out in beta form), SAFE is taking a close look at this educational process. Pitch+power=performance. This does not work well. Not a member? Hands, Feet, Eyes. Basic aerodynamic knowledge informs the (attitude flying) concept, which enables the learning of proper techniques and procedures. In 2015 (the most recent year that the NTSB published those stats) LOC-I was second to system malfunction – powerplant… and my read of accident reports suggests some pilots are poorly equipped to deal with loss of power (for ANY reason) – and thus contribute to higher LOC-I numbers. Please consider this suggestion carefully and feel free to contact us for additional aspects of this problem and its remedy. The CFI ACS is the place to change this trend. View all posts by David St. George. })(); Please stand back and take a fresh look at our flight training industry. Instrument Rating ACS Exams. (Always make sure you are preparing for your practical test with the current version.). True—just one of many changes to airman training and testing that have taken effect recently or are in the works for students, advanced pilots, and flight instructors, in or out of the cockpit. Totally in agreement with the comments about attitude flying and that the leaning toward a technological solution for the answer to the loss of control problem probably won’t do much. This does not work well. What is that? The ACS provide pilots, instructors and evaluators with a single-source set of clear, logical standards that tell them what they need to know, consider and do to qualify and pass both the knowledge and practical tests for airman certification and ratings. Based upon narrative information also offered by responding pilots such as “…engine seized on C206 during cruise & landed on road…” it doesn’t appear that reportable NTSB 830 accidents were buried in the data set in great numbers.
