Chapter Twenty-Six: The First Landing
Xu Wei is very entangled in this problem, if this problem is not clarified, he will definitely do this situation after he stalls, this time there is an instructor on the side to remind, what about when flying solo, what about the license exam? Will the instructor be around? The answer is no, so he has to figure out where things are coming from. He tried hard to recall the difference between what the instructor did when he entered the stall and what he did, the airspeed meter, the attitude meter, and the heading instrument, Xu Wei suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, that's right, the heading instrument! The biggest difference is that the course is not completely stabilized when the stall occurs, and the instructor is able to maintain the consistency of the course well when the stall occurs.
Sure enough, after the plane was completely stabilized, the instructor began to evaluate Xu Wei's stall. In a long paragraph of his words, he kept repeating the phrase "keepheading!" This coincides with Xu Wei's speculation. Later, Xu Wei knew that once the course could not be maintained, the resulting stall was called uncoordinated stall, also known as "uncoordinatedstall", and the plane rollover was a precursor to entering the spiral.
“needitryagain?” Now that he knows where the root is, Xu Wei wants to do it once, even if he is still afraid of stalling in his heart.
The instructor shook his head and vetoed Xu Wei's proposal.
“no,wehavetodotwolandingsonein17atheotherinathensnotmuchtimeleft.”
The instructor seemed to be in a good mood, although Xu Wei almost went into a spiral, but he was still quite satisfied with being able to respond to his instructions in a timely and correct manner.
Seeing that the instructor did not react too much to his poor stall performance, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he was not worried about everything by the instructor. As for the landing below, Xu Wei will not be so worried about landing, theoretically speaking, landing is more difficult than stalling, but it is very important that it does not make Xu Wei feel scared like stalling, so that he has no psychological barriers, and he can let it go.
The instructor first took over the plane temporarily, and now the plane was at 4,000 feet in the airfield, and the airfield was close enough to make a rapid descent.
The instructor asked Xu Wei to remember what he was doing next, because he would also take it during the license exam. First of all, turn on the vaporizer to 1500rpm to turn on the vaporizer to heat, ten degrees of flaps, turn and spiral down with a slope of thirty degrees, and control the airspeed through pitch changes to keep it at about 80 knots, not too fast, otherwise it will damage the flaps, of course, you can also retract the flaps, there is no hard and fast rule for this. The instructor said that this was an emergency descent, Xu Wei believed it, and later when he was in Shangzhao, the principal Eric took Xu Wei to do a real emergency descent, which was really urgent, of course, this is a later story.
The plane quickly descended to 1,500 feet, and it happened that the plane was facing runway 19 straight and straight.
“nice_shoot!” The instructor laughed, "Let's confirm theweatheragain." After saying that, he said to the radio panel Nunu mouth.
Xu Wei quickly understood and listened to AWOS again.
“wind165degreesat_3ktsvis5milesovc5000ftaltimeter30.00.” Xu Wei retold AWOS's message to the instructor, and the instructor smacked his lips and looked outside, it was indeed cloudless.
“ok!” The instructor imitated Shrek's voice and said mischievously, it seems that he is in a good mood.
“nowind,nocloudnopossibilitytoencounterwindshear,soyouhavecontrol。” The instructor saw that the weather was excellent, and deliberately let Xu Wei try to land by himself.
“yougettheaircraftlandontherunwayiwillhelpyouifnecessary。” The instructor specially told Xu Wei that he would help if necessary to reassure him.
Everything went smoothly for Xu Wei today, which made Xu Wei have no psychological burden, and he was very happy to catch the control, and the instructor did the land-air dialogue.
“17afield,c46075,3miles,directtofinal,17afield。” The instructor switches to the CTAF frequency of the airport, reports his location.
Xu Wei didn't need to think about the radio and concentrated on landing. At 3miles, adjust the throttle, turn on the heating, put down the ten-degree flaps, control the descent speed, etc., these steps Xu Wei remembers, and because the weather is excellent, there is basically no crosswind interference, Xu Wei is relatively simple to operate.
Drop the 20 degree flap in 2miles...
At 1mile drop the last thirty degree flaps, on the runway centerline, hold, ready to ground...
When you reach the runway, you start to slowly close the throttle, this throttle speed must be grasped well, the instructor is not at ease, his hand has been next to the throttle, ready to take over the throttle at any time, and at the same time pay attention to the change in airspeed to prevent stalling...
At the moment when it is about to be grounded, the throttle is fully retracted, and at the same time, the steering stick is pulled back, so that the nose of the aircraft is slightly raised...
During this time, the instructor kept shouting "keepnosestraighttocenterline." "Let Xu Wei stay in the middle line of the runway, because when pulling the nose, for various reasons, the nose will be crooked, and the instructor asked Xu Wei to use the rudder to make minor adjustments. As for what counts as subtle, that's where the art of landing lies.
Another key point of landing is to judge when to pull the nose and how much, which is the most critical (important thing to say three times) to pull the nose too early, the airspeed drops too fast, the plane will land directly without gliding, and the serious stall will occur; Pull the nose too late and all three wheels are grounded at the same time, which can damage the landing gear, either way to avoid.
The difficulty of novice landing is that it is impossible to judge the distance between the plane and the ground, which largely depends on feeling, this landing, when to pull the lever, when to close the throttle have been reminded by the instructor, and there are not many real Xu Wei operations.
The Cessna series is an upper wing, the gliding ability is not strong, just glide for a few seconds, the rear wheel first lands on the ground, then the front wheel, the plane position is slightly to the left of the midline, overall it is a very good landing.
The instructor's reaction was more violent, and he patted Xu Wei's shoulder heavily, and the corners of his mouth grinned behind his ears.
“holy**man! youmakeitniceperfectamazing。 The instructor kept praising Xu Wei, Xu Wei's ears were red, and he hurriedly said to the instructor: "Because ofyourhelpsir."
“nononohowcanyoudothisinfirstlanding.” After getting off the runway, under relatively safe circumstances, he pushed Xu Wei's shoulder heavily, which was obviously not a provocation, but an agreement!
