You're going to use a runway at nearby Erie Municipal Airport (48V) for this maneuver. This flight begins at the start of the long runway (Runway 33) at 48V. Take off, and climb to 6,000 feet MSL, which is about 850 feet AGL. Circle left back toward the airport, with the goal of lining up with the short runway (about heading 090). Configure for low cruise.
After you cross over the big runway, roll to the right so that you can see the numbers for Runway Runway 33 over your right wing. Adjust your airspeed (by varying your altitude) to maintain the numbers in the same spot over the wing: pitch down (which causes you to speed up) if the numbers start moving forward of the wing; pitch up to slow down if they drift behind the wing.
Here are the lessons and missions to study after flying these chap_22 missions:
- Commercial Pilot Lesson 3 is all about a double-engine failure (most of which you learned in Chapter 6).
- Solo Flight-Engine Failure lesson is a double-engine failure in the Baron, which is a good review for the flights in this chapter.
