Private Pilot Practical TestDescriptionPrivate Pilot Practical Test / Plan Of ActionStep-by-Step Once I receive the applicant's information form and PLT codes, send them their scenario Incorporate PLT codes in to my Plan-of-Action Print Flight-Profile to take on flight The day of the test: Verify approval for test in DMS Verify proper endorsements for checkride Open my Questions & Answer page PUNCH HOLE IN OLD CERTIFICATE DPE – AM I PREPARED? SET THE ENVIRONMENT 1. Be on time 2. Physical testing environment: Ensure privacy.Eliminate possible interruptions/ have calls held, etc. 3. Psychological testing environment: Show genuine interest in the applicant. Be polite, courteous, receptive.Manage your prejudices. Keep personal or business problems to yourself ORAL QUESTIONING 1. Access all levels of learning: rote, understanding, application, correlation. Correlation: should be the objective of aviation instruction. 2. Scenario situations are one of the evaluator’s better tools for more comprehensive testing and will, to the greatest extent practicable, test the applicant’s correlative abilities. Scenarios also aid in evaluating pilot judgment, knowledge, and skill. 3. Characteristics of good oral test questions: reliable, valid, usable, objective, comprehensive, and non- discriminating. 4. Oral questioning may continue throughout the test. When the applicant is with you for the practical test and they are reviewing the online 8710, you the examiner should take control and be sure that the applicant accepts each page and does not just close each page. This is very important. Take control of this and guide the applicant through this process. Print the Knowledge Test from IACRA and compare the numbers with the original. After reviewing the 8710 in IACRA, you have a chance to return the 8710 to the applicant to correct any issues. When the applicant is with you for the practical test and they are reviewing the online 8710, you the examiner should take control and be sure that the applicant accepts each page and does not just close each page. This is very important. Take control of this and guide the applicant through this process. Have the applicant sign a printed 8710 in front of you. This is for your file. In IACRA, explain in detail in the remarks/comments section any special issues. Also in this section you can explain exactly why an applicant failed so that the next examiner has the details. You can start each checkride with the PAVE and I'M SAFE checklist. At the completion of the checkride, the DPE will keep the original test results. You return the original only if you discontinue the test or the applicant fails the test. Flight Profile: Preflight Inspection Cockpit Management Engine Starting Taxiing Before Take-off Check Normal takeoff and climb (cross wind takeoff if applicable) Start off on cross country to the first 2 or 3 checkpoints - Pilotage/Dead Reckoning Trigger Event - divert to an alternate I pick via pilotage/Dead Reckoning plus ATC Normal approach & landing at alternate Side slip for crosswind landing Soft field takeoff & landing Short field takeoff & landing Forward slip to landing Go around Takeoff towards practice area Steep turns Ground Reference maneuvers ***See Note Below Private Pilot ground reference maneuvers slides FAA Airplane Flying Handbook Ground Reference Maneuvers Slow flight *** See Slow Flight in Q&A section SAFO 17009 & SAFO 16010. This cannot be turned in to a power off stall. Per March 2019 DPE class, the applicant needs to recovery from slow flight. Power off stall Power on stall Spin awareness Instrument maneuvers, straight & level, constant airspeed climbs, constant airspeed descents, turns to headings Magentic compass turns Unusual attitudes *** See note below Emergency descent Emergency operations - systems & equipment failures Lost procedures Radio navigation return to home base (some hood work) - GPS & VOR Emergency approach & landing Post flight procedures *****Notes >>>>> Per the March 2019 Initial DPE training class an applicant can do one or two go arounds when attempting a landing. It is up to the examiner as to how many go arounds are allowed. >>>>> An applicant can also stop a maneuver and restart it if the applicant feels the maneuver got of to a bad start. For example, on a steep turn if the applicant is climbing or descending too much during the entry, the applicant can stop the maneuver and restart the maneuver. *****Note >>>>> The ground reference maneuver rectangular course cannot be a traffic pattern with a landing. The ACS states "PA.V.B.S7 Maintain altitude ±100 feet; maintain airspeed ±10 knots." Flying the pattern with a landing is NOT maintaining altitude plus/minus 100 feet. *****Note >>>>> The FAA does not recommend that you do a touch and go on a Practical Test. ***** Unusual attitude recovery >>>>>In moderate unusual attitudes, the pilot can normally reorient by establishing a level flight indication on the attitude indicator. However, the pilot should not depend on this instrument if the attitude indicator is the spillable type, because its upset limits may have been exceeded or it may have become inoperative due to mechanical malfunction. If it is the nonspillable-type instrument and is operating properly, errors up to 5 degrees of pitch-and-bank may result and its indications are very difficult to interpret in extreme attitudes. As soon as the unusual attitude is detected, the recommended recovery procedures stated in the POH/AFM should be initiated. If there are no recommended procedures stated in the POH/AFM, the recovery should be initiated by reference to the ASI, altimeter, VSI, and turn coordinator.
