Flight Training - September/October 2022 - 49
DON'T FORGET THE AVIONICS
Take the time to learn the airplane and how it flies,
but don't forget the avionics. While the Sling didn't fly
too differently other than being lighter on the controls,
the avionics and particularly the autopilot took some
instruction to understand. Before and after the checkout,
I watched some instructional videos on YouTube
to make sure I felt proficient.
If your instructor glosses over avionics, stop him
Reasons
to fly
a new
airplane:
or her. Part of earning the sign-off should be learning to
use every system on the airplane to proficiency, including
autopilot or systems you don't think you'll use. For
advanced avionics, online training tools and simulators
can help, or you can ask the flight school to hook up
ground power to improve your buttonology.
Going through the process of learning to fly a
new-to-you airplane will brush off the dust of book
learning, improve your stick-and-rudder skills, and
give you a new reason to fly. And CFIs, this applies
to you, too. We so often sit in the right seat and rarely
touch the controls, especially as our students improve.
So, find that airplane that you've always wanted to put in
your logbook, and try something new. You'll be a better
aviator and instructor because of it. FT
