Aviation Insights from Bay Area Flight Instructor
Real-world multi-engine flying tips, aviation safety insights, and training advice from an experienced Bay Area flight instructor. Learn from practical scenarios.
Multi-engine aerodynamics involve understanding Vmc, the critical engine, and four aerodynamic factors (PAST) affecting controllability. Vmc varies based on conditions (SMACFUMO), with factors like density altitude, power setting, and propeller configuration influencing it. Understanding these factors is crucial for safe operation on one engine.
