7.13.2. Description.

p. 130

7.13.2.1. Airspeed - 110-120 KIAS.

p. 130

7.13.2.2. Gear – Down.

p. 130

7.13.2.3. Flaps – TO.

p. 131

7.13.2.4. Attitude – 3 degrees nose high; 0-30 degrees AOB.

p. 131

7.13.3. Procedure. Slow and configure as for an instrument approach. Practice level flight, turns, and descents.

p. 131

7.13.4. Techniques. Use known pitch and power settings. Use 60-to-1 to determine pitch change for target descent rate on simulated approaches. Practice level, shallow bank turns at 110 KIAS to simulate corrections on final. Practice level off at simulated minimum descent altitude (MDA). Practice 30-degree bank turns at 120 KIAS to simulate maneuvering on a circling approach.
