Aviate - Navigate - Communicate
Chapter 1 Aviate – Skills Assessment
This course outlines the use of a Personal Skills Assessment for Private |
Pilot Airplane tasks. The same process can be applied other certificates |
and ratings |
In this chapter we will use the PTS to determine a pilot’s current state of |
demonstrated Aviate skills. |
This is accomplished by identifying the PTS tasks that relate to the Aviate
functions, for the ratings currently held. The Private Pilot PTS Areas of |
Operation that outline many Aviate skills are: |
• | Takeoffs, Landings, and Go-Arounds
• | Performance Maneuver |
• | Ground Reference Maneuvers |
• | Slow Flight and Stalls |
• | Basic Instrument Maneuvers |
• | Emergency Operations |
