14 **THE PROCESS OF INSTRUMENT**  **FLYING -**  **INTRODUCTION** H ow we successfully achieve instrument flight has been evolving away from just being an "art form." The current thrust is toward more structured processes as airspace and technology mature. No longer are we able to execute high quality instrument flight using freeform methods. The thesis of this introduction is the concept of applying structured process techniques while flying instruments. The analogy I like to use is; Instrument F light is like a cookie factory. If you put all the right ingredients in the cookie dough at the right time and cook it at the right temperature for the right time, you end up with really good cookies. If you leave anything out, you get really bad cookies ! Repeatable steps, which have been demonstrated to work consistently, make instrument flight easier and safer. Following those steps each and every time results in high quality performance. The most common faults I see on practical tests and proficienc y checks are related to leaving out (forgetting) process steps. There are solid concepts behind the titles Terminal Procedures (approach plates), Standard Departure Procedures, Obstacle Departure Procedures and Standard Terminal Arrival Procedures. Airline and Part 135 operators are required to have Standard Operating Procedures. The whole concept of Total Quality Management started to evolve in the United States a number of years ago. Dr. W. Edwards Deming introduced these methods in other countries th at were competing with us in manufacturing. With time, U . S . industry learned this concept; the key to having successful quality products evolves from understanding and improving process steps. The same is true for instrument flight. The concept of conti nuous process improvement is a key contributor to our being proficient. If new steps are learned, they should be evaluated and incorporated (as long as they contribute to safety first or ease of flight) . Process steps are not meant to be stagnant , but sh ould evolve as learning continues. Itm ust be emphasized that there is not just one set of good process steps. Many varieties exist which describe viable and correct techniques. The more important idea is that each one of us should have a set of process es that work for us individually. These steps should become a part of our flying "fiber." Now the question arises; "Should you ever deviate from your process?" The answer is a definite YES! If your normal environment changes (for example, an equipment failure), then you may deviate from your normal process. When this happens, a conscious effort must be made to evaluate the best action path. However, having an engrained normal process in mind will help you through the possible rough spots. There are many processes in instrument flying. The most fundamental is having a good instrument scan. You need a scan that is regular, repeatable and not random like the often taught hub and spoke method. The key is to f

requent ly scan the specific instruments that are critical for the mode of flight being used . Other processes include: Recovering from Unusual Attitudes, Intercepting and Tracking Courses, Holding Procedures, "Six Ts", " Missed Approach ", Timed Turns, Approach Briefing, IFR Flight Planning, Use of C hecklists, etc. Process steps for each of these will enhance your safety and comfort while flying IFR. Another consideration of striving for excellence in IFR flight is to debrief yourself after each flight. Make an honest assessment of how well you did against the standards and your existing processes. Constantly strive for process improvement, but most importantly: "Have a Process." Do not "wing it" during IFR. Bill Lewis, MCFI, DPE**Instrument	Airplane Training	Course	Outline**

# .......					A	few	words	about	the	Power **C ard:**  Please recognize that the power cards you fill out for the Simulator/FTD/Airplane are not absolute settings. The settings merely represent a starting point for ty pical conditions of flight. The concept revolves around the concept that PITCH + POWER = PERFORMANCE. We all know that changes in Temperature, Altitude, Humidity (Density Altitude), aircraft loading, and center of gravity

will require slight modifications of the required pitch and power to maintain the chosen mode of flight. Also each aircraft of the same type may perform slightly differently due to age, condition and rigging. Also increasing the flap settings will significantly change the required settings So, in using the card, constantly be aware that you may

have to set the power and pitc h somewhat differentl y than what your power card specifies.

24 **THE PROCESS OF RECOVERING FROM UNUSUAL ATTITUDES** An unusual attitude may be caused by turbulence, improper control pressures, inattention, failure of the trim system/autopilot , or often, a pilot following an attitude indicator that is in the process of failing. Severe unusual attitudes may exceed the limits of the attitude indicator. It is therefore important to practice recoveries using partial panel technique and to not trust the attitude indicator , as it may have tumbled or is inaccurate. If an unusual attitude is suspected, always look at the airspeed indicator first. There are two ty

pes of unusual attitudes: nose high and nose low . The most frequent unusual attitude is the descending turn. Because of the bank, a steep div e will tend to develop and airspeed can rapidly build to dangerous levels. If the turn exceeds medium bank , it will tend to continue rolling steeper, accelerating the spiral dive and increasing the chances of exceeding the design load factor of the aircra ft. In a spiral dive ("Graveyard Spiral"), the airspeed will be high and increasing , and the turn coordinator will be pegged in the direction of the turn. For **HIGH AIRSPEED** spiral dives, the steps to recover, **in the proper sequence** , are: 1. **REDUCE POWE R**  to eliminate the accelerating thrust of the engine. Also, the wind - milling propeller will produce some additional drag. 2. **LEVEL THE WINGS** . Do not attempt to raise the nose while the airplane is banked. This would tighten the spiral and increase the stress on the airframe. **PAUSE** , do not rush the next step. 3. **RAISE THE NOSE** . At high airspeeds, strong control pressure is unnecessary. The nose will tend to rise and without a direct indication of pitch attitude it is ea sy to over - control. There is a danger o f causing a high pitch attitude and a near stall condition. Level flight is reached when altitude stops decreasing. If it starts to increase, the airplane is climbing and you should dampen this tendency with light forward pressure. Unless the trim system or autopilot fails, dangerous nose high unusual attitudes are uncommon in general aviation aircraft. If the airplane gets into an inadvertent climb, airspeed will bleed off and the nose will drop. If it i s banked, a spiral dive may develop. However, severe turbulence, inattention, or poor technique may cause an inadvertent climb, indicated by low and decreasing airspeed. For **LOW SPEED** turning climbs, the steps for recovery, **in the proper sequence** , are: 1. **APPLY POWER** to increase airspeed and avoid the stall. 2. **NEUTRALIZE THE AILERONS** . Do not try to bank out of the turn yet! 3. **LOWER THE NOSE** to increase airspeed and avoid the stall. Level flight is reached when the altitude stops increasing . **PAUSE** , do not rush the next step. 4. **LEVEL THE WINGS** . Leveling the wings prematurely could result in a spin, due to the greater angle of attack of the aileron on the low wing. In unusual attitude recoveries, as in all partial panel work, emphas ize light control pressures and rapid instrument scan. The greatest danger is in over - controlling and creating another unusual attitude during the recovery.

### The Process of Intercepting and Tracking VORs Intercepting and tracking VOR radials is not a complex process, however, it can sometimes be confusing. Many instructors teach techniques to mentally add or subtract 180 degrees to obtain reciprocal headings. The following process eliminates the requirement to do any math in the cockpit for this purpose, and results in better positional awareness and fewer errors. 1. **TUNE** - Tune in the appropriate VOR. 2. **IDENTIF Y**  **-** Identify the VOR station to assure that you have the correct navigation al aid selected and that it is not in a test mode. 3. **VISUALIZE** - Mentally visualize your airplane right on top of the VOR that you are using. Mentally visualize that the airplane is pointed in the proper direction for the airway you want to intercept and track. Decide if the radial is on the nose or tail of your phantom airplane. 4. **TWIST** - Twist your Omni Bearing Selector (OBS) such that you put the radial either on the no se or the tail of the OBS card as visualized in step three above. 5. **TURN -**  Turn the airplane to a heading that corresponds to the number that is now on the top of the OBS card (the Course Index) . You are now flyingparallel to the radial in the correc t direction. 6. **TURN** - If the course deviation needle is pinned off scale, turn it 45 degrees toward the needle and intercept the radial. For smaller needle deviations, a smaller intercept angle may be used. 7. **TRACK** - Track the radial inbound or outbound using appropriate wind correction. Step s number three and four are the key s to not having to compute reciprocal courses. The OBS card is doing the work for you.  2002 H.

### The Process of Holding Patterns Holding patterns are the nemesis of many instrument pilots. Ihave known several instrument students who have given up on their training bec ause of the difficulty of visualizing and executing the holds. The following process was taught to me by my good friend, Captain Jim Eliason: 1. Alway s... **Always** write down the h olding c learance. Draw a circle around the holding radial (I call thi s the "Number” ). Never accept a h olding c learance without being given an e xpect f urther c learance t ime. 2. Fly direct to the holding fix. 3. Mentally

overlay the appropriate diagram below over the Directional Gy ro. One picture is for right turns, the other for left turns. 4. Visually

determine where radial (the "Number") falls on the overlay . That will tell you what kind of entry

is required. (After some practice, you can identify the required holding entry in less than a second.)

5. Follow the Six T Rules that follow in order to execute the required hold. This sy stem requires you to memorize a few simple rules. However, it is much faster and more reliable than trying to sketch the holding pattern and muddling yo ur way through the procedure. If yo u follow the few simple rules, you will get it right every time!  2002 H. William Lewis, used with permission of the author.**Instrument	Airplane Training	Course	Outline**

### THE PROCESS OF TIMED 

## TURNS Partial panel flying after the loss of your primary flight instruments certainly can be stressful. Trying to make magnetic compass turns can be filled with many errors because o f compass magnetic dip and acceleration errors. Thus, the recommended way to change the airplane's heading is by timing and using standard rate turns. Many instructors teach that you should do mental arithmetic by subtracting your current heading from th e desired heading , then divid e by three. Example: a turn from 90 degrees to 120 degrees would require a 30 degree heading change. Since standard rate is three degrees per second, this turn would require 10 seconds. Research has shown that it is very d ifficult to do mathematics while trying to use your central vision to scan the instruments. Interestingly, the same part of our brain is used for both mathematics and central vision. The following process eliminates the requirement to do any math in the cockpit for this purpose , and results in better positional awareness and fewer errors. The basic concept is to treat each 30 degree heading increment as ten seconds in time rather than a number of degrees. Here are the steps: 1. Using the Turn Coordinator, hold the airplane as level as possible , and read the compass. 2. Rotate your OBS (preferably one not being used for navigation) so that the number at the top cursor matches the magnetic heading. This example shows 090 degrees:

3. Let's say that you want to make a heading change from 090 to 210 . T hink of each major numbered division (12, 15, 18, 21) as 10 seconds each. Thus, a 40 second right turn would be required. It is easy to interpolate for fractions of a major num ber division. If you have your primary OBS set for an inbound course, you can use the same method of counting major divisions from the current magnetic heading position to the desired inbound course. No math required!  2002 H. William Lewis, used with permission of the author.**Instrument	Airplane Training	Course	Outline**

### The Process of Magnetic Turns Partial panel fl ying after the loss of your primary flight instruments is often stressful. Trying to make magnetic compass turns can be filled with many errors because of compass magnetic dip and acceleration errors. Thus, the recommended way to change the airplane's heading is by timing and using standard rate turns. See the section entitled , "The Process of Timed Turns . " When using the technique of Timed Turns, the variability of timing, rolling into the turn, rolling out of the turn , and turn coordinator accuracy /precision, it is very

difficult to get to the exact desired heading. You can usually "just get close." When you are close to the desired heading, small corrections in heading m ay be made by

using magnetic turns. Because of magnetic dip and acceleration errors, use of the magnetic compass has its complications as well: When on an East or West heading , any acceleration or climb will show a compass reading of a more Northerl y indi cation. Conversel y, any deceleration or dive will have a compass reading showing a more Southerly indication Also , when turning near Southerly headings, the compass indication will lead (be ahead of) the actual desired heading. Conversel y, when turning near Northerl y headings, the compass indication will lag (be behind) the actual desired heading. Detailed understanding of these factors will allow the pilot to make compensations and get relativel y close. Here are useful steps: 1. Fly the airplane s o that the Turn Coordinator shows absolutely **NO TURN** and is **STABLE** . 2. Note the current and desired heading on the magnetic compass. 3. If the desired heading shows on the RI GHT of the magnetic compass, you must turn **LEFT** . 4 . Conversely , if the desired heading shows on the LEFT of the magnetic compass, you must turn **RIGHT.** (This is similar to the concept of a localizer back course approach where you turn away from the needle.) 5. The timing of your turns should be: "ROLL IN TWO THREE, ROLL OUT TWO THREE" . If you roll into a standard rate turn during this step, you will get approximately a ten degree change of heading. These steps should be done successivel y until the desired heading is achieved. Another orientation co ncept to keep in mind , is that if you want the numbers on the compass to be **BIGGER ,**  you must turn **RIGHT** . If you want the numbers to get **SMALLER** , you must turn **LEFT** . At first this might seem very simple, however, it is extremely helpful to keep this in mind. **©** 2005 H.
