Flight Maneuver Spotlight: Slow Flight
Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
|
Welcome to the latest edition of the Flight Maneuver Spotlight series. Here we’ll highlight the various maneuvers you’ll practice during your flight training and be expected to demonstrate during your Private Pilot checkride.
One of the most valuable skills a pilot can develop, crosswind landings demand precise control and sound technique. In this spotlight, we’ll review the key steps for managing drift and maintaining alignment during landing when the winds aren’t straight down the runway.
Each maneuver is part of Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course and includes a narrated video animation, along with step-by-step instructions that include performance standards and common errors. Study them while on the ground or print them for quick reference in the airplane.
The flight maneuver is from Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course.
