What is the maximum indicated airspeed you may fly when operating under BasicMed? Can you fly a multiengine airplane that is authorized to carry eight occupants under BasicMed? No, pilots are not authorized to operate an airplane with more than one engine under BasicMed. June 31, 2026 June 15, 2028 June 30, 2028 Correct!

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. With three airplanes, we departed Springfield for Fairfield, Iowa to compete in an NIFA competition against five other schools. This was the situation on Friday, December 1, 1972.

But how to do so when you’ve known the airplane since its early development years, as I have? She warned me ahead of time that the airplane wouldn’t appear different from the outside but to expect something truly different inside. The logic is, if you can enter the airplane with the key fob, you can start the engine.

Large turbine engine powered airplanes are not permitted to operate below the Class B airspace when en route to or from the primary airport within the airspace. Class B Speed Limitations Aircraft flying within the Class B airspace may fly at an indicated airspeed of up to 250 knots.

A lot of reports come from air carrier pilots, which makes sense because they fly the most, but there are plenty of GA airplanes in the mix as well. One pilot got such warning after ATC vectored the airplane onto a charted segment 700 feet below the charted altitude for that segment. Plus controllers and mechanics.

Thats your true airspeed. Calibrated airspeed is not the same as indicated airspeed. However, the difference is a few knots for general aviation airspeeds and altitudes. For example, if its 120, look for the number 12 on the scale. Read the corresponding number on the outer scale.

There’s a reason why basic airplane attitude instrument flying comes first in any Instrument curriculum – it’s the foundation for everything else you’ll do in IFR flying. As the complete instrument pilot, you should be able to maintain heading, altitude, and airspeed at speeds ranging from cruise to approach.

The higher speed creates extra lift, causing the airplane to bank further into the turn. The pilot’s job is to prevent the airplane from banking too quickly or too far. In our example, the right wing has more lift, and thus more drag, than the left wing as the airplane rolls. As the aircraft pitches up, the airspeed drops.

Caught in series of up and down drafts, the autopilot pitched the Warrior aggressively to maintain altitude and the indicated airspeed trended too high in each updraft.

So, on days when we are taking off or landing at an airfield with low air density, we require faster true airspeeds to generate the required lift. This increased true airspeed, along with other factors increases takeoff and landing distances. High-density altitude, on the other hand, indicates thin air.

Concorde was a beautiful airplane, and it remains the object of much nostalgic admiration, but the world did not hurry to replace it. Now that ban, whose obtuse wording would apply even to a perfectly silent supersonic airplane if there were such a thing, is under new scrutiny, and NASA is studying ways of making sonic booms less annoying.

As part of your preflight preparation, you should always consult the POH/AFM performance charts to determine the airplane performance is acceptable for a safe takeoff and climb for the conditions and location. Once the brakes are released as the airplane accelerates, adjust the airplane’s pitch to attain minimum drag and maximum acceleration.

This is a hard one to gain insight from other than this: Some atmospheric events are bigger than our plastic airplanes. Without knowing the horizontal wind direction and speed at this point it is impossible to say what his indicated airspeed was. His ground speed had dropped to 75 kt so he also had less kinetic energy reserve.
