Pupils in Flying Must
Learn Full-Flight First l
It may seem rather like putting j
the cart before the horse that the
pupil In flying Is taught thoroughly j
how to handle a machine In full
flight before he even knows how to
take off or to land, writes Alan War­
wick, In Pearson’s Magazine. The
point Is, of course, that at several
thousand feet In the air errors of
control can be made more or less
with Impunity. There Is ample
time for the pupil to correct them
or. If he gets himself tied up Into
knots, the Instructor can straighten
things out.
Lending a machine, or taking-off.
on the other hand, gives no such
latitude. The machine Is very near
the hard, hard ground. Wherefore,
both these phases of flying an air­
plane—more particularly the land­
ing—call for a precision of judg­
ment that the pupil obviously cannot
possess until he has become thor­
oughly familiar with the controls, a
familiarity he only acquires In mid­
air.
To the beginner It may well seem
that the delicate work of landing a
machine—achieving the Ideal three-
point landing, tail-skid and two
wheels setting gently on the ground
together—Is something far too diffi­
cult for him ever to accomplish. But
as his lessons proceed he soon mod­
ifies his views. Such Is the confl
dence and self-reliance he acquires
that, when at last he comes to mas­
tering the take-off and landing, the
control-column has become almost |
part of himself, and he finds they
are problems well within his com
pass.
Before taking the tests for his
"A” license, the new pilot must have
flown at least three hours solo. The
tests themselves. In addition to
showing flying skill, include a
simple medical examination. The
additional questions put by the med­
ical examiner are searching enough.
The qualifying pilot must also dis­
play knowledge of the elementary
rules relating to air traffic. For In­
stance, he must know the correct
method of approaching a landing
ground, and what he has to do
when meeting another machine In
mid-air.
