Here you can discuss climbing and descending.

It is said that the entry step for a climb is setting full throttle (step 1). Step 3 is pitching up for 75 kts. IMHO (and keeping in mind my real life PPL lessons), this is completely wrong. The first step should be pitching the nose up and let the cruise speed bleed off till it nears the climb spee…

On normal propeller equipped Cessnas with normal cruise speeds, propeller overspeed should not occur. However, remember that we are not training for real life operations here and that we are us…

Hi there, I just wanted to check about the turning reference table, in the Descent Power-off row it refers to 68KIAS as Vx, I am not knowledgeable in the topic but I thought 68KIAS would be Vg. As it was already stated that Vx is 65KIAS

Hi! Make sure you are in a stable climb with full power, flying at or close to 75 knots. Then turn targeting 20 degrees of bank. Turn for at least 90 degrees one way. Then level out. Do the same for the other way. If this still does not make your turns register, let me know and we can check the flig…
