Estimated time to complete:
- 60 minutes

Aircraft:
- Mooney M20M "Bravo"

Objectives:
- Handling an Advanced Emergency - Case #5

 

For case #5 of the advanced flight challenges, you're going to really make use of the flight simulator and do things you absolutely cannot do in real life. For one thing, we won't tell you in advance what will happen during each flight.

You'll just have to pay attention to the airplane and figure it out and then get safely on the ground. That's certainly the most realistic way to train. Everything seems OK now, but in a few minutes something bad is going to happen. And we're not going to give it away!

The first thing you should do, during the few minutes you have at the beginning of each flight before something goes wrong, is to get situational awareness: where are you, where are you headed, how high are you, and where is the nearest (or best) airport when you're ready to land?
