For the FAA Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) Airplane Single Engine (ASE) checkride, the demonstration stalls are specific maneuvers that you, as a CFI candidate, must perform and explain to demonstrate your instructional knowledge and ability. There are indeed four demonstration stalls youll need to master for the CFI checkride.

For example, describing a Cuban eight maneuver would involve such writing as, enter the (in Farsi , R-L), Cuban eight (in English, L-R), maneuver no lower than (in Farsi , R-L), 10,000 AGL (in English, L-R), at a minimum of (in Farsi , R-L), 450 knots (in English, L-R). Watching such scribbling could make ones head spin!

You may pilot aircraft with a Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) of 1320 pounds, carry no more than one passenger, and fly only during the daytime up to 10,000 feet MSL (or 2,000 AGL). A great option for that is taking an interactive ground school, such as the private airplane pilot course on Pilotinstitute.com. Multiengine land.

There are phases of flight when it’s critical that you know how to handle the airplane at slower speeds. Departure and arrival are two of the most critical phases of a flight and involves flying the airplane slow while being very close to the ground. When an airplane exceeds its critical angle of attack, an aerodynamic stall happens.

Flying a single engine airplane, under IFR, in the clouds, in a non-radar environment and without an autopilot, adds a great deal to the pilots work load. After all, I had just aced my checkride. With three airplanes, we departed Springfield for Fairfield, Iowa to compete in an NIFA competition against five other schools.

But, as you near the runway, the airplane starts to float. So you may have to discuss and demonstrate this during your checkride. For example, a Cessna 172 with a 36-foot wingspan will begin to experience ground effect between 30 and 36 feet Above Ground Level (AGL). You’re landing. You feel in control.
