Title:
When Engine(s) Go Silent
Topic:
Speed To Fly For Airplane Pilots
Date and Time:
Saturday, April 15, 2023, starting at 09:00 Central Daylight Time (07:00 PDT; 08:00 MDT; 10:00 EDT; 04:00 HST; 06:00 AKDT; 07:00 Arizona; 14:00 GMT)
Speaker(s):
Prof. Dr. Nihad Daidzic, Minnesota State University, ATP AMEL, CFI-IA, MEI-IA, CFI-RH, CFI-G. FAASTeam rep. at MSP FSDO.
Brief Description:
Join us for A VIRTUAL cup of coffee, a donut, and a LIVE WEBINAR as Professor Doctor Nihad Daidzic talks to us about fixed-wing aircraft aerodynamic efficiency, aircraft descent aerodynamics, and gliding performance in cases of partial and full engine(s) failures. The effect of weight, altitude, horizontal and vertical atmospheric motions on descent and gliding performance are discussed.
Due to these variables, descent speed-to-fly (STF) varies with weight, wind, and vertical atmospheric motion. Development of piloting best-practices for airplanes in different flight scenarios are based on the fundamental aerodynamic and aircraft performance theory and principles.
