With this system coming online, the aircraft’s autopilot and auto thrust systems disengaged as the systems could not agree on the true airspeed of the aircraft. They received a block clearance between 30,000ft and 35,000ft.

As I am executing the abnormal engine checklist and reviewing the single-engine procedures, the right engine rpm steadily decreases to below flight idle, and the aircraft is yawing significantly from the differential thrust. ForeFlight indicated we could reach there with a 900 fpm descent rate. I had no control of the left engine.

This configuration provides the necessary power for both climb and cruise, while also offering valuable training for managing asymmetric thrust in the event of an engine-out situation. The pre-landing check is the first step in ensuring the aircraft is ready for a stable descent.

Understanding the Basics of Flight Principles of Flight: Lift, Weight, Thrust, and Drag Flying a plane for the first time requires a basic understanding of the forces that make flight possible. Thrust, produced by the engines, moves the plane forward, while drag, or air resistance, slows it down.

I filed my IFR flight plan, received a clearance and took off into the gray winter sky. We entered the holding pattern over Jeff City, flew two circuits and finally received our approach clearance. It was also destroying the propellers air foils causing a loss of thrust. Phil was a cool head under pressure. I didnt know.

So for passengers travelling to Milan, they can board through the Schengen level and for those flying to Singapore, they have to board through the non Schengen level and that also includes passport check and clearance. At this point we started our descent as we passed by some snowy mountains. Reverse thrust and spoilers were deployed.

The sharp pitch-up moment captured on camera may have been the pilot seeing the building at the last minute, pitching up abruptly to try to increase clearance. At some point, either to increase thrust while pitching up or to arrest the sudden descent, the pilot increased the engine power to full. hours total flight time.
