RMIT Flight Training Night Circuits RMIT Mass Brief Night Circuits 1/2004 1 NIGHT CIRCUITS Aim: To take-off safely, complete a circuit and land correctly at night. Application: Night flying Revision: Main instrument in our scan is the AH Instrument Scans - Selective radial scan. Definitions: Last Light - is the End of Daylight (EoD) and is found in the AIP’s. Without a night rating, must be on ground 10min beforehand. Principles: Aerodrome Lighting - Taxiway lighting is either green centreline or blue sideline lights. - Holding point is amber lighting. - Obstacles have red flashing light at top.

Considerations: Go-around - as per day, except 100% instruments. - be aware of somatagravic illusion. Lighting Failures - landing light failures will be practised - carry portable electric torch for cockpit lighting failures. Air Exercise: Pre-Flight - conducted normally, paying particular attention to lighting. Start Up - as per day, except clear prop with strobes Take-Off - conducted 100% visual, as per day - lift-off, climb out on 100% instruments - check +ve RoC, safe IAS, maintaining RWY X-Wind - conducted 75% instruments, 25% visual Downwind - 50% instruments, 50% visual Base - 75% visual, 25% instruments Final Brief 23 RMIT Flight Training Night Circuits RMIT Mass Brief Night Circuits 1/2004 3 - 100% visual - use RWY lighting for approach guidance RMIT Flight Training Night Circuits RMIT Mass Brief Night Circuits 1/2004 4 Landing - RWY lights at shoulder level, power to IDLE - watch end lights to judge FLARE and HOLDOFF Airmanship: - Lookout - Remember instrument scans - Trust instruments and be aware of illusions - Correct handover/takeover procedure - Be familiar with aerodrome lighting Brief 23作者: xy8701 时间: 2015-4-7 23:02:28
