TRAINING AND SAFETy
TIPS FOR STUDENTS
PRESENTED BY ASI
LOOKING TO ENHANCE TRAINING RESOURCES TO SHARE WITH
LEARNERS? Tap into the AOPA Air Safety Institute's Training and
Safety Tips, a vast collection of weekly wisdom from CFIs around
the United States.
Here are two tips we think you'll enjoy.
Don't be shy about asking, 'why?' Know the purpose of
learning maneuvers By William E. Dubois
I don't often feel the need to correct another flight instructor. But recently,
when I overheard a young CFI respond to his student's question, I really had
to bite my tongue.
The student had asked why she needed to learn a specific maneuver, and
the CFI's response was, " Because it's on the checkride. "
Here's the thing, student pilots: Without exception, every single thing
you are taught-both in the air and on the ground-serves a purpose.
And, as a budding aviator, I think you should not only learn what's
Anyway, back to all the things you are learning. The reasons for
some of what you are taught are obvious. You learn the federal aviation
regulations because, as a pilot, you'll be flying in a soup of aviation regs.
And as a responsible aviator, you are expected to know the rules and
know under what circumstances you can break them. You learn about
weather because it's the No. 1 airborne threat-and knowledge of weather
and weather services keeps you and your passengers safe. You learn
cross-country navigation because what use is an airplane that doesn't
go anywhere?
But it's the purpose behind learning the various required maneuvers that
tends to trip people up. To understand why you learn all the things you
are taught in the air, crack open the Airplane Flying Handbook. While
expected but also know why you are learning it. That's actually one of the
fundamentals of adult learning: Adults don't generally learn things well
unless they know the reason they are expected to know them. The young
CFI should have known this. It's part of his training. So, he should have
explained the " why. "
