JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes

Introduction The enclosed specific aircraft training notes form the basis of the flying training for the JAR-FCL Private Pilots Licence. They have been set out to show the content of each flying lesson and will prove a useful aid throughout the course. For expanded information, reference should be made to one of the many informative Flying Manuals from the school shop. Towards the end of the course the student pilot will be readied for the final test for the issue of the licence. Full details of this test, called a PPL Skill Test, are contained in FCL Standards Document 19 a copy of which will be available for student pilots reference. When applying for the licence the CAA syllabus states that a pilot should have flown: A course minimum of 45 hours (of which5 hours may be in a Flight Navigation Procedure Trainer or Flight Simulator) including: 1) Minimum 25 hours dual 2) Minimum of 10 hours solo The 25 hours dual must include: 1) At least 5 hours solo cross-country including at least one solo triangular crosscountry of at least 150 nautical miles, with 2 landings away. And of course, have completed all the relevant ground examinations including Radio Telephony. National PPL The syllabus for the NPPL is identical apart from Exercise 18C which is omitted. The flight test is split into two flights. Your instructor will give you more details.

Climbing Exercise 7 (2) Aim: To learn how to climb with varying amounts of flap and how to raise flap during the climb. Airmanship: Lookout. Engine checks. Flap operating speeds. Application re Go Around. Air Exercise: From normal climb, note the rate of climb. Lowering Flap At normal climb speed, lower 10 stage of flap. Maintain normal climb speed of 65 knots. Raise the nose and select recommended speed for go around, 60 knots. Raise the nose and select recommended speed for best angle of climb, 55 knots. Select 20 flap. Select 30 flap. Effect Note reduced climb rate plus lower nose and trim change. Climb rate largely restored. Attitude and trim change. Good climb rate with reduced speed, means better angle of climb. Attitude and trim change. Reduced rate of climb plus lower nose attitude and trim change. Further reduced rate of climb plus lower nose attitude and trim change Effect Attitude and trim change. Rate of climb increases plus higher nose attitude as flap is retracted.

Raising Flap Reduce flap by stages. Climb at appropriate speed. Resume normal climb of 65 knots.

Caution: Raising flap from full to zero in one selection is to be avoided as it can cause aircraft sink which is hazardous at low speeds or near the ground. The correct procedure is to reduce flap in stages applying control column back pressure to prevent sink and to select the next higher attitude for the flap setting plus trimming.

Descending Exercise 8 (3) Aim: To teach how to descend at greater than normal rates of descent without increasing the airspeed. e.g. Sideslip. Airmanship: Lookout. Anticipate safe recovery by 200ft AGL. Application re flapless landings. Forced landings. Engine fires. See pilots handbook re slipping with flap selected. Air Exercise: Sideslip Entry From straight glide at 65 knots, adopt a moderate bank to the left (15) using opposite rudder to maintain heading. Simultaneously adjust nose attitude for 65 knots. Note the increased rate of descent and turn coordinator ball out of balance. Although greater bank angles give greater rate of descent care must be taken to maintain adequate rudder control especially with flap selected. In The Slip Maintain selected bank and sufficient opposite rudder to maintain direction. Hold attitude for correct speed, 65 knots. Caution: Ensure safe speed maintained since ASI can give erroneous indications during a slip. Recovery To Glide Anticipate safe recovery. e.g. Not below 200ft AGL. Level wings simultaneously centralising rudder. Readjust pitch attitude to maintain 65 knots. Slipping Turn From a gliding turn to the left at 65 knots. Apply opposite rudder to the turn maintaining the bank angle with ailerons. Adjust pitch attitude to maintain correct speed. Note increased rate of descent and turn coordinator ball out of balance. Maintain selected bank with sufficient opposite rudder. Maintain safe IAS. To recover apply rudder pressure in the direction of the turn to regain balanced flight whilst using aileron control to maintain bank. Adjust pitch attitude to maintain correct IAS.

Slow Flight Exercise 10A (1) Aim: To acquaint the pilot with the handling characteristics at speeds close to the stall and so allow the development of the necessary sensory and other perceptions to gauge the closeness of the stall. In addition, to give practise in controlling the aircraft at these slower speeds, especially as regards maintaining balance when manoeuvring. Airmanship: Lookout. HASELL. Engine handling/temperature and pressures. Safe height. Never fly at these slow speeds except take off and landing unless with instructor. Air Exercises: Level Flight Introduce HASELL safety checks. Estimate/set power for flight at Vs1 + 5kts (50 knots). Select attitude and trim. Check and adjust. Maintain altitude, heading and balance. Note sluggish controls, high nose attitude and hence poor forward lookout. Also cannot maintain altitude with control column pressures. Must use control column and power. Note: Keep hand on throttle. Finally towards the end of this stage the flying instructor should begin to introduce student distractions as required. Flying time spent on this and other stall/spin awareness exercises is to be recorded separately in the student pilots logbook.

Devon & Somerset Flight Training Dunkeswell Aerodrome Honiton Devon EX14 4LG

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes

Slow Flight Exercise 10A (2) Aim: To acquaint the pilot with the handling characteristics in the range Vs1 + 5kts and Vso + 5kts down to minimum speed(s) at which the aircraft can be safely controlled, concluding with the symptoms of the approach to the stall and the recovery to safe flight. Airmanship: HASELL. Lookout. Engine handling/temperatures and pressures. Safe height. Never fly at these speeds unless with an instructor. Air Exercises: After the preceding part 1 exercises, the instructor should demonstrate, with subsequent student practise, the effects of applying full power in the landing configuration (to climb) and high power in the landing configuration as on a short field approach (descent) as described below. Full Power In Landing Configuration Instructor to demonstrate aircraft in full flap climb at 45 knots and necessity to maintain balance. Note poor rate of climb and if relax rudder pressure the ball moves off centre. Subsequent yaw can lead to roll. The loss of speed could lead to stall/spin. Student practise Vso + 5kts (45 knots) flapped climbs whilst retracting flap to simulate go around action. High Powered Flapped Descent From low speed flight, instructor to demonstrate in full flap descent simulating low speed short field approach. Whilst descending allow the IAS to fall off sufficient to cause stall warner to operate. Note that the aircraft could stall albeit with the nose still relatively low. Student practise the descent at 45 knots then entering fully flapped climb, initially at 45 knots reverting to normal climb as flap is retracted. Demonstration of Symptoms During Approach to Stall Instructor conclude the exercise by demonstrating the symptoms approaching the stall. It is recommended that a lowish power setting, say 1950 RPM be used for this demonstration. The instructor should demonstrate the symptoms stressing that only a relatively small

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes movement of the control column is necessary to return the aircraft to safe controlled flight. Student to practise effecting recovery at the stall warner stage. This part of the flight is to be used to sow the seeds of a recovery technique and so develop the students competence in achieving safe recoveries to normal flight in the event of reaching a dangerous situation in the air. The instructor should stress that there is nothing dangerous about stall recovery provided action is taken soon enough and at the right altitude.

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes

Stalling Exercise 10B Aim: To examine the symptoms of an approaching stall, the characteristics of a stall and to teach the standard recovery with a minimum height loss, ensuring that the student knows when the aircraft has safely recovered. Airmanship: HASELL(HELL). Repeat as necessary during the exercise. Air Exercise: After student having been shown a stall. Entry HASELL. Lookout, clearing turn. Aircraft wings level and in balance. Close throttle (prevent yaw). Maintain height (pitch). Ailerons neutral. Note datum height. Note: Symptoms on entry: - Falling airspeed. - Sloppy controls. - High nose attitude. - Stall warner. - Slight buffet. In The Stall Hold control column fully back. Prevent yaw. Ailerons neutral. Note: Symptoms in the stall: - Low IAS, high rate of descent. - Heavy buffet. - Sink. - Nose pitches down. - Possible wing drop (Do not use aileron). - Note stall speed, control column fully back and cannot raise the nose. The aircraft is now no longer controllable in pitch. Recovery 1) With Power: Holding ailerons neutral. Control column forward gently. Full power. Prevent yaw. Airspeed rises. Ease out of dive to 65 knots.

Devon & Somerset Flight Training Dunkeswell Aerodrome Honiton Devon EX14 4LG

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes Approx height loss 150ft. 2) Without Power (Elevator Only): Control column fully forward until buffet stops. Prevent yaw with rudder. Airspeed increases. Ease out of dive to 65 knots. Approx height loss 300ft.

Spin Avoidance Exercise 11A Aim: To recognise the symptoms of an approach to a spin and to recover at the incipient stage from various flight attitudes. Airmanship: HASELL(HELL) safety checks. Essential recover by 3000ft AGL. Constant lookout. Air Exercise: 1. Recovery at the incipient stage from straight and level flight. Entry HASELL/HELL. Set up slow flight straight and level. Slowly apply control column back pressure without maintaining balance i.e. allow yaw to occur. The wing will normally drop as the aircraft stalls. Note: If reluctant to drop, use more rapid movement of control column, more power or rudder. Delay stall recovery until wing drops between 45 and 60. Recovery Control column forward and rudder to prevent yaw. Power as required. Level the wings and regain balanced flight. Return to normal straight and level. Student practice. 2. Recovery at the incipient stage. Repeat from straight descent, climb, level turns, climbing and descending turns. Important: 1. For the purpose of training, the incipient stage is that period when a wind drops at the stall to more than 45 but not more than 90. Clean aircraft configuration to be used. 2. Prompt recovery is essential. If nose drops well below horizon power should not be applied until initial recovery is effected and nose is being raised towards the horizon. This is to avoid height loss. 3. Time spent on these exercises must be logged separately. 4. Per: AD 2009 10-09, fully developed spins are not permitted in the Cessna 152.

Crosswind Approach and Landing Exercise 12 & 13 (2) Aim: To teach the procedure and control technique to take off and land safely during cross wind conditions Airmanship: All normal considerations apply. Check aircraft manual for crosswind limitations. Your personal limitations? Air Exercise: 1. Pre Take Off: Calculate crosswind component, line up with control column into wind. 2. Take Off: Progressively centralise control column as speed increases to maintain lateral level. Keep straight with rudder, beware of weathercock effect. Do not raise nose wheel until take off speed. Lift off cleanly at 55 to 60 kts, make immediate allowance for drift. 3. Climb and Circuit: Maintain extended runway centre line on climb out. Normal circuit pattern plus allowance for drift. 4. Approach and Landing: Approach as normal, flap as required. Allow for drift and round out as normal. Just before touchdown, make sure aircraft is facing down centre line with control column into wind. After touchdown, lower nose immediately, but gently to assist with directional control. Keep control column into wind during ground roll. Note: The lift off speed should be a few knots higher than normal during cross wind conditions. Hence the different speed quoted above.

Flapless Approach and Landing Exercise 13 (1) Aim: To teach the technique of approach and landing without flap. Airmanship: Normal considerations apply. Air Exercise: 1. Downwind Leg: If surface wind is light it is permissible to fly further downwind due to flatter angle of approach. 2. Base Leg: Establish descent in good time using less power than normal. No flap. Trim 70 kts and turn 70 kts 3. Final Approach: Speed 65 kts. It is preferable to aim for a normal approach slope as a flatter approach path will result in a restricted forward view. Small power adjustments are to be used to maintain descent path. Cross the hedge at approx 60 55 kts. 4. Landing: A shallower round out will be required. The higher speed will involve a longer float and landing run. Touchdown approx 50 kts. Be prepared to use brakes.

Glide Approach and Landing Exercise 13 (2) Aim: To teach how to complete a successful approach and landing from a predetermined position without the use of power. This exercise forms the basis for forced landing procedure. Airmanship: Normal airmanship considerations apply. Engine handling. Air Exercise: 1. Downwind Leg As for normal circuit but earlier turn on to base leg. Select aiming point upwind of the intended point of touchdown. 2. Base Leg: Check drift, wind velocity and decide when to close the throttle. Select/check carb heat and close throttle when sure of reaching touchdown point. Trim for 65 kts glide. No flap. The wind will determine the position for establishing the glide. Better late than early. Maintain heading, look at selected aiming point and assess if too high or low. If very high, lower one stage of flap. If high or low turn away/towards runway. 3. Final Approach: Ensure maintain correct speed on final turn. Lower nose as necessary. Caution re wind gradient effect in strong winds. Lower further stages of flap as required to reach intended landing point. Caution: If undershooting on this exercise, do not stretch the glide. If high or if not on the ground in good time with insufficient runway left, initiate a go around. 4. Landing: Initiate round out in good time due to high rate of descent and large attitude change. Student practice to achieve a high standard due to application re forced landing procedure.

Short Field/Soft Field Take Off and Landing Exercise 12 & 13 (3) Aim: To teach take off and landing techniques where the field length is restricted or the surface is soft due to grass, mud, snow, slush etc. Airmanship: Normal considerations apply. Consult flight manual for performance. Air Exercise: 1. Short Field Take Off: Having determined best take off path re obstacles, surface slope, and wind etc. Take off checks complete; align aircraft with selected path using max run available. 10 flap to be used. Open up to max power against the brakes. Check RPM and Ts & Ps. If satisfactory release the brakes for take off. Be prepared for swing and raise nose wheel at 50 kts. Climb away at 55 kts for the best angle of climb if obstructions exist; otherwise when clear of obstacles at a safe altitude raise flaps, climb at 65 kts. Trim. Landing: Initial approach as for standard circuit but in light winds turn onto base slightly later. When established on final select full flap and make precision approach to selected touchdown point. Adjust attitude for 55 kts. Descent controlled with power and speed with elevator. As touchdown is approached, adjust aircraft attitude and apply power as required to reduce the speed to 50 kts. Power should be maintained throughout the round out and the throttle closed just before or as the main wheels contact the ground. There should be no float. After landing, gently lower the nose wheel and apply brakes. 2. Soft Field: Take Off: Having determined best take off path re obstacles, surface slope, and wind etc. Take off checks complete; align aircraft with selected path using max run available. 10 flap to be used. Apply full power. If the ground is very soft a rolling start may be desirable. The control column should be held back to permit the aircraft to leave the

Devon & Somerset Flight Training Dunkeswell Aerodrome Honiton Devon EX14 4LG

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes ground at the lowest possible speed. As the aircraft does so, the control column backpressure should be relaxed and the aircraft flown parallel to the ground and allowed to accelerate to 55 kts prior to climb out which is as for short field. Landing: The approach is as above and the touchdown is to be made with the nose wheel held clear of the ground as long as possible. If the landing distance permits, a trickle of power may be left on to improve elevator control and minimise weight on the nosewheel both during landing roll and taxiing.

Operation At Low Level (Bad Weather Circuit) Exercise 18B(1) Aim: To teach how to manoeuvre the aircraft in the event of having to make a circuit at low level e.g. under a low cloud base and or in poor visibility. Airmanship: Normal aspects apply. 500ft rule etc, in training. Low speed cruise configuration. Avoid annoyance to people and livestock, in training. Air Exercise: (Either at an aerodrome or in the countryside in conjunction with Exercise 17) Note: The under mentioned is the recommended training procedure to cover the worst case i.e. poor visibility and low cloud. In the cases of poor visibility and no low cloud, or good visibility and low cloud, the circuit pattern and height can be modified to suit. Where practicable for best lookout a left hand circuit is advisable.

A. In poor visibility, a 180 rate 1 turn is about right to position the aircraft on the downwind leg. This gives about the right radius for a poor visibility circuit. The angle of bank could be modified slightly in the case of a crosswind. The a/c should not normally be lower than, say, 400ft AGL and not closer to the cloud base than 200ft. B. The distance out from the field or runway should be close enough to retain sight of the field in poor visibility but far enough out to make a safe base turn. C. Downwind checks as normal include 20 flap for low safe cruise configuration. In training at an airfield, the R/T call would be G-RY, Downwind, Low Level Left/Right Hand

VOR Tracking Exercise 18C (1) Aim: To teach how to track/intercept a track to and from a VOR Airmanship: Lookout. Safety altitude. FRIEDAL. AIP latest information. General Notes: The ground radio facility is known as the VOR (VHF omni-range) Station Each station transmits signals in all directions, hence the term omnidirectional. The signals are arranged to produce an infinite number of courses or tracks, 360 of which can selected and identified by the VOR receiver in the aircraft. Each bearing from a station is called a radial. The audio signals from the station carry an identification feature and sometimes an ATIS transmission. As stated, VHF band is used (between 108MHz and 117.95MHz), the signals are line of sight and are relatively free from interference. Basically, the aircraft equipment comprises antennae, receiver, frequency selector, and course deviation indicator (CDI). Warning flag device is fitted to show when the equipment readings are likely to be unreliable. Likely range of the equipment is as follows: Aircraft Altitude 1,000ft 2,000ft 4,000ft 8,000ft Approx Range 40nm 55nm 78nm 110nm

It should be realised that each radial subtends an arc of approximately 1nm at 60 nm from the station, so intercepting a radial some distance from the station can require a larger closing angle than when close in. The VOR stations signals, one fixed and one rotating- are in phase when aligned with Magnetic north. Thus all bearings or radials are in degrees Magnetic.

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes To Track To A Station Check before flight in the UK Air Pilot (AIP) and obtain frequency, ident, hours of operation, precise location, and designated operational coverage. The user should having tuned and identified the station: Select required radial on the CDI Confirm no warning flag Ensure correct TO/FROM indication (i.e. Aircraft heading and CDI reading similar) While maintain heading, CDI needle L or R will indicate which way to turn The number of dots that the needle is off will show the amount of track error Assess track error, multiply by 3, plus drift allowance and select new heading A normal bite would be 30 degrees As the needle moves to the centre, reduce the angle. Remember, full needle deflection is 10 degrees. As the aircraft nears the station, the radial width will reduce considerably. When very close in, it becomes impractical to fly using the CDI. Best option is to fly using your established heading.

See illustration below:

Devon & Somerset Flight Training Dunkeswell Aerodrome Honiton Devon EX14 4LG

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes

Example: If CDI needle shows 2 dots to the left, this means deflection of 4 degrees. 4 x 3 = 12 degrees, so change heading 12 degrees to left (+ or -) wind allowance. To Track From A Station As before and having tuned and identified the station Select the required radial on the CDI Confirm no warning flag Ensure a correct TO/FROM indication i.e. CDI says FROM and both the CDI reading and the aircraft heading are similar Maintain heading and CDI needle either left of right will indicate which way to turn The number of dots that the needle is off will show the track error

Devon & Somerset Flight Training Dunkeswell Aerodrome Honiton Devon EX14 4LG

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes Assess the error, multiply by 3, plus or minus a drift allowance and select a new heading. A normal bite would be 30 degrees

Note: If the needle was deflected fully to one side, the safest way to assess the track error is to find the QDR by rotating the OBS knob in order to centralise the needle. The difference between the QDR and the required track will be the track error. Reassess, return the CDI to the required radial and fly the new heading. As the needle centres, reduce the bite. Remember, as the aircraft flies away from the station the radial will widen and accuracy becomes important

To Assess Time To A Station Tune and identify the station as before, assuming it is wished to establish the approximate time to the station, proceed as follows: Turn the aircraft so that it is flying at 90 degrees to the radial being tracked Centre the CDI and note the time As soon as the CDI starts to move, turn the OBS to set a new radial 10 degrees ahead

Devon & Somerset Flight Training Dunkeswell Aerodrome Honiton Devon EX14 4LG

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes When the needle centres again, note the elapsed time. Then apply the following formula:

ADF Tracking and Position Finding Exercise 18C (2) Aim: To teach how to track to and from a Non-Directional Beacon, also how to plot the aircraft position using NDB and VOR. Airmanship: Normal aspects apply. Lookout. Safety altitude. Must have instinctive idea of QDMs. General Notes: The student must understand the different type of beacon emissions and appreciate that if an a/c homes on to a beacon without allowing for drift i.e. flies the a/c with the ADF needle centred the a/c will reach the station but not its original track but pointing upwind! Air Exercise: (Initially practise in the clear, then under the IMC hood) 1. Flying a Pre-Selected Track To a Station Normally the pilot would have verified before flight the frequency, ident, hours of operation, range, position, type of emission etc. The ADF would have been tuned, idented and set to ADF. Needle operation would have been tested. A fixed ADF card is assumed. A RMI would be easier. Two methods are given: Method A 1. Check ADF needle and turn aircraft so needle reads zero. Ensure DI and compass synchronised. 2. The heading on DI is the QDM to station. 3. Maintain. Any deviation of ADF needle shows drift and the way to turn. 4. To regain original track, turn towards the wind (same side as needle) until the ADF needle is Method B 1. Refer to ADF needle. 2. Ensuring DI and compass synchronised, mentally transpose ADF needle to DI face. The transposed position is the aircraft QDM. Decide if the QDM is as required or if aircraft required heading change to intercept required track. 3. If need to intercept, decide if to turn left or right and the

Devon & Somerset Flight Training Dunkeswell Aerodrome Honiton Devon EX14 4LG

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes the same number of degrees on the other side of the nose. 5. Maintain until needle moves twice as far away from the nose. This confirms that the original track has been regained. Turn part way towards the station by a suitable amount to allow for drift. 6. Maintain new heading. If it is correct, the ADF needle will not move. 7. In practise, it will be necessary to correct further, as needle moves one way or the other. If needle does move then must correct. Pilot must decide if drift allowance is too much or too little. Repeat 4 to 6. Then make new drift allowance. Maintain. Remember: The direction of needle swing will show which way to turn. Also, no need for too much arithmetic: to find actual QDM, either turn the aircraft to centre the ADF needle and read the heading or read the needle and add (if right of centre) or subtract (if left of centre) the aircraft heading. See diagram below. 8. If the QDM is not the one required, alter the heading as necessary i.e. decide direction and the bite, select a new heading until the needle reading + or heading = QDM amount of bite e.g. Attack at 30. 4. Turn the aircraft to the new heading. 5. Mentally transpose the needle and find the QDM. Initially it will be the same until the new heading has had time to work. Remember: The difference between the aircraft and the required track will be shown by the ADF needle when the aircraft is on the required track. Example: Steering 300, looking for 270, will be on track when needle says 30. (As the needle approaches 30 the bite can be reduced). 6. By this method, the pilot constantly knows his QDM, without maths. As aircraft reaches required track a new heading can be estimated to take care of any drift. 7. When the aircraft is on the new heading the position of the ADF needle must be noted. This is essential. 8. If the needle remains fixed, the drift has been cancelled. If the needle moves (left or right) the aircraft heading must be corrected first to regain the required track, then again to try a new drift allowance.

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes Whichever of the two methods is used, the pilot must remain orientated at all times. The ADF needle is the key to where the station is and if the aircraft is drifting to or from its required track.

If no allowance is made for drift i.e. the pilot just flies to the station by constantly flying to keep the needle centred, the following shows what happens:

The aircraft starts with the best of intentions but will end up at the station headed into the wind and not on the required track, or from the intended direction. This last could be important if one was trying to avoid high ground! To achieve a required track the track must be intercepted, then maintained, by making a precise allowance for drift. Overflying The Station/Beacon If a careful track is maintained with the corrections sharpened up as the aircraft approaches the station (but the heading alterations kept small) the aircraft should make a good station passage. The needle will oscillate/fluctuate as the station is approached but if a fairly accurate passage is made the needle will swing fairly quickly through 180 and point to the rear. If a transit is made just to one side, the needle will move fairly smartly through 180 without too many oscillations. If a transit is made well to one side, the needle will reverse much more slowly and finish up not quite pointing to the rear of the a/c. So the pilot will be able to infer a lot of useful information from the behaviour of the needle.

JAR-PPL Cessna 152 Exercise Notes Measuring Time To The Station This can be done using the principle outlined in VOR TRACKING leaflet. This aid is, however, not quite so accurate. Remember: The time taken for a change of 1 of bearing measured in seconds = minutes to the station. In practice, of course, one would have to measure over 10 or more. Obtaining a Fix Using 2 NDBs and a VOR Tune and identify the 2 stations in turn, or if using 1 NDB & VOR simultaneously and obtain bearings from the station(s). In the case of NDB, this means obtaining QDM as outlined above in paragraph 1, then deducting the variation, and taking the reciprocal. Plot this figure as a QTE. In the case of VOR i.e. with variation, plot as is from the VOR rose datum. In either case, the fix lies where the two bearings cross, assuming that the bearings were taken simultaneously or within, say, 30 seconds of each other. Anything more will give a measurable error. Tracking From a Station Either treat the ADF dial as a plus and minus indicator to find the QDM (which is now opposite to the aircraft heading) or mentally transpose the ADF needle to find the QDM:

To intercept a given QDM turn the aircraft in the same direction that the needle is moving (assuming that it is moving and the aircraft is not on the required QDM). As for tracking to a station a definite bite or attack angle must be used: the bite will to some extent depend upon the wind (direction & strength). Then wait for the new heading to work and maintain until the aircraft is on the new QDM, or nearly so, adjust as required to maintain the new required QDM. Tracking from a station requires sharper thinking due to the QDM and heading being opposite. But the principles are the same. If using the ploy: the difference between the aircraft heading and required track will be on the ADF indicator when on the required track still works, but one has to use the reciprocal of the new heading selected.

Example: In the above sketch, if the ADF needle moved left by another 10 i.e. QDM110 this means that the a/c has drifted to the right, and needs a correction of heading to the left say, steer 240, take the reciprocal 060. Then the ploy: the difference between 060 and the required track 100 = 40. When steering hdg 240 the ADF needle will initially show +50 (at the bottom of the ADF indicator) and as the new heading bites the ADF needle would move (if the wind is not too strong) towards +40. Then the a/c is back on track. If the needle doesnt move, a bigger bite is required. Once on the track again, it would be necessary to fly another heading, say try 260. In which case the ADF needle would move to +20. If the new heading were exactly right, the ADF needle would not move, hopefully, indicating that the a/c remained on the required track. Important: If the pilot is unsure, at any time, steer the heading of the required track and even though the aircraft may not be on the required track the ADF needle will show immediately which side of track the aircraft is, and also which way to turn. This works irrespective of whether the needle is pointing ahead or behind the aircraft.

Basic Instrument Flying Exercise 19 (1) Aim: To teach how to control the aircraft in straight and level flight by sole reference to instruments. Airmanship: All normal airmanship considerations apply but care must be taken re: controlled airspace and/or weather considerations if IMC flight involved. Introduction of FREDAL and suction gauge checks. Air Exercise: 1. Achieving & Maintaining Straight & Level Flight, Normal Cruise From a condition other than straight and level and using internal and external references: Achieving Select approximate straight and level attitude using the Artificial Horizon (AH). Set cruise power. Initially scan AH, Altitude, DI then trim. Widen scan to include secondary supplementary instruments. Re-trim. If wings are level and heading is constant, the aircraft will be in balance. If wings are level and aircraft in balance but heading is changing, it could mean the AH is Unserviceable (U/S) Maintaining When straight and level achieved, the primary supporting instruments will be DI and VSI. If turbulent use DI and Alt. For small errors in Altitude use pitch changes. For larger errors re-adjust power. Scan to include the suction gauge. Correcting Technique: Change, Check, Hold, Adjust, Trim. Pitch changes: Max bar width. Heading changes: Max bank of heading error in degrees. Max rate 1 turn. Alt in excess +/100ft: readjust power and pitch. Note: Accurate trimming essential. Better to prevent instrument deviations that to cure!
