Book Description
Learn to avoid stalls and spins, the #1 cause of general aviation accidents Most pilots learn the basics of stall recovery during their private pilot training. But uncontrolled stalls and spins still plague pilots each year, resulting in unnecessary accidents and injuries. This book gives a clear and concise presentation of not only stall and spin recovery, but more importantly, stall and spin avoidance. Planned stalls or spins are rarely the cause of accidents. It's when pilots fail to notice the warning signs of an imminent unplanned stall or spin that problems occur. These mistakes are normally associated with takeoffs and landings. But accidents can be avoided if pilots learn to recognize the warning signs that indicate that a stall or spin is about to take place. This book teaches pilots to pick up on these warning signals--and discusses many of the improper piloting techniques that cause them. You'll learn how to: Avoid slipping and skidding turns that may lead to stalls and spins; Recognize and deal with a variety of stall/spin situations that require different recovery techniques; Effect spin recovery in true emergency situations; Orchestrate control imputs for spin recovery; Spot the warning signals of an imminent stall; Make the crucial distinction between a spin and a spiral; Avoid or recover from inverted and crossover spins; Avoid secondary stalls. This book gives you in-depth understanding of stall and spin situations, including many exotic spins that most pilots never encounter--but critical knowledge for those who do meet them. This information in conjunction with the ability to recognize and avoid inadvertent stalls, taught by this book, can help you be a safer, more competent pilot.

Introduction to a Glider Flight Examiner Manual (FEM)
Author: Francesco Daniele Padovano
Publisher: ACCI (Asociación Cultural y Científica Iberoamericana)
ISBN: 8418476699
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Francesco Daniele Padovano is a gliding instructor with more than 15.000 flights in his experience along with training commercial pilots as a TKI at CAE. He has been one of the main instructors of the national school in Spain and holds active SPL FI-FI, Acro and TMG ratings. Among others, he has laid the foundations of the gliding training programme in Colombia and has taught in the Argentinean army in their courses dedicated to drone pilot training. He is currently developing a programme dedicated to children at risk of exclusion with a motivational programme through gliding and collaborating with various vocational schools to complement the training with gliding. He is the author of several publications in the aeronautical field: “El Manual del piloto de vuelo sin motor”, “Manual del instructor de vuelo sin motor”, “Meteorología para drones”, “Glider Flight Instructor Manual, development of the first period-basic course based on the EASA SFCL regulation of march 2020 with the introduction of competence criteria”. This book wishes to propose a standard for SPL examiners based on CBTA (Competence Training and Assessment) and related mission sheet. After the publication of the book "Glider flight instructor manual" with the introduction of the competence criteria (CBTA), this text is the natural evolution because, if a competence-based teaching system is proposed, the evaluation at examination level of the candidates for obtaining the licences and ratings, foreseen in the EASA regulation EU 2020/358, remains unresolved. Therefore, this text aims to provide a solution to the doubts that may arise for examiners when conducting an examination.

Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
The overwhelming majority of a software system’s lifespan is spent in use, not in design or implementation. So, why does conventional wisdom insist that software engineers focus primarily on the design and development of large-scale computing systems? In this collection of essays and articles, key members of Google’s Site Reliability Team explain how and why their commitment to the entire lifecycle has enabled the company to successfully build, deploy, monitor, and maintain some of the largest software systems in the world. You’ll learn the principles and practices that enable Google engineers to make systems more scalable, reliable, and efficient—lessons directly applicable to your organization. This book is divided into four sections: Introduction—Learn what site reliability engineering is and why it differs from conventional IT industry practices Principles—Examine the patterns, behaviors, and areas of concern that influence the work of a site reliability engineer (SRE) Practices—Understand the theory and practice of an SRE’s day-to-day work: building and operating large distributed computing systems Management—Explore Google's best practices for training, communication, and meetings that your organization can use
