Responsibilities of All Aviation Instructors
Helping learners learn Providing adequate instruction Emphasizing the positive Ensuring aviation safety Demanding appropriate standards of performance
Additional Responsibilities of Flight Instructors
Pilot proficiency
Flight instructor endorsements
Additional training and endorsements Pilot supervision Practical test recommendations Learner’s pre-solo flight thought process Evaluation of learner piloting ability See and avoid responsibility

Definition of Learning
A change in behavior as a result of experience
What are the 8 defense mechanisms
Repression Reaction Formation Rationalization Denial of Reality Displacement Projection Compensation Fantasy

What is adverse yaw?
the tendency of an airplane to yaw in the opposite direction of the turn. For example, as you roll to the right, your airplane may initially yaw to the left.
When you roll your airplane to the right, your right aileron goes up, and your left aileron goes down. The aileron in the upward position (the right aileron in this example) creates less lift and less drag than the aileron that is lowered. The aileron angled downward (the left aileron in this example) produces more drag and more lift, initially yawing the airplane in the opposite direction of your roll.
What are the left turning tendencies?
P-Factor
Gyroscopic Precession
Spiraling Slipstream
Torque
If the student didn’t understand something, what defense mechanisms would they use to try to trick you?
Denial of reality or reaction formation
What is the difference between supervision and evaluation?
Supervision = guidance, not always showing restraint, observe standards
Evaluation = post flight critique. keeping student informed, taking notes
How does forward CG affect stall?
higher stall speed, closer to angle of attack, more stable
How does aft CG affect stall?
harder to recover, father from critical AOA, less stable
What are the characteristics of an effective question?
Is adapted to the learners ability Presents a challenge Is brief and concise, but clear Centers on one idea Applies to the subject
Characteristics of learning
Learning is..
Result from experience
Active process
Multifaceted
Purposeful
Things to minimize student frustration?
Keep learners informed
Critique constructively
Give credit when due Approach learners as individuals Motivate learner Be consistent Admit errors
