Title:
EAA 18 VMC and IMC Club Meeting Timmerman Airport Civil Air Patrol Hangar
Topic:
Discussion on Flight Characteristics Due to Change in Center of Gravity
Speaker(s):
Jim Szajkovics, Tim Meyer
Brief Description:
VMC (Visual Meteorological Conditions) Question of the Month: How do airplane flight characteristics change as the CG is moved from a forward position to an aft position, and why. We will discuss the importance of the proper calculation and loading of the airplane in order for us to operate it safely.
IMC (Instrument Meteorological Conditions) Question of the month: How can runway centerline stripes be used to measure or monitor takeoff and landing performance? We view and discuss short videos presenting flight scenarios that any VFR ( Visual Flight Rules) pilot can learn from others. Members discuss short videos and how they would respond to the given scenario. This is an open Forum for free ideas and we all learn from Shared Experience! All are welcome to join in the discussion.
