Airmanship and Aerodynamics Part I – Maneuvers

2 years ago
25

In a three part series, Jim Alsip Master CFI-Emeritus shares the relationship between airmanship, commonly referred to as stick and rudder skill, and aerodynamics. Understanding this magical relationship will make you an accomplished airman, a superb pilot, a great stick.

In Part I, Jim will ask you to reflect on flight maneuvers and how they are taught; Part II is a discussion about using the flight controls. Parts one and two will give you a deeper understanding of how airmanship relates to aerodynamics. In Part III, your expanded appreciation for aerodynamics will challenge how you fly an airplane.

Please, do not expect these videos to teach you to fly maneuvers. Instead, Jim invites you to ponder your understanding of using the flight controls; be thoughtful about your habits; be honest about your ability to use stick and rudder.
