  1. To stall an aircraft simply increase the angle of attack until you.....stall.

    Flaps up, flaps down, power on, power off, doesn't matter you will still stall the airplane.

    Slow cruise? We called it slow flight, but, you have to maintain altitude, decrease power to about 1500rpm, continue to hold ALT, drop flaps, hold alt, more flaps, hold altitude, and keep adding power little by little until you can hold 50 knots about at the same altitude.

    I did it tonight in a 172 for fun

    Steep turns are about 60 degrees or 65, anything pass the little white lines on your attitude indicator. So bank the plane like a world war II fighter and use rudder.  Pull back on the yoke to maintain altitude, climb, or descend..depending on the maneuver...

    you may have to decrease the roll a bit to gain some altitude, but then bank right back to a steep turn...Be careful not to overload the airplane with excessive G's or you will stall at even 80 knots..Know the planes load factor and you can feel the g's...Good luck and it is spelt maneuvers even tho I have been spelling everything wrong and typing like crapp. Id rather you know how to spell maneuvers before you do them

    happy flying my friend


  2. stall:

    1.lookout, pick reference point ahead, carb heat on, smoothly reduce throttle to idle, progressive backpressure to maintain height, passing 60kts carb heat off, keep the backpressure coming until it stalls.

    2. lookout, pick reference point ahead, carb heat on, smoothly reduce throttle to 1500rpm, backpressure to maintain height, white arc flaps 20, anticipate balloon, reset throttle to 1500rpm, passing 60kts carb heat off, keep the backpressure coming until it stalls.

    for the stalls you shouldn't deviate from your reference point throughout the whole maneouver.

    fast cruise - full power, maintain height

    slow cruise - power approx 1700rpm, nose up, maintain height

    steep turns: pick reference point, lookout, roll, balance, backpressure, passing 30 degrees increase power to 2400rpm, maintain 45 degrees bank angle, approaching reference point roll out, balance, relax backpressure.

  3. This is the official source, but definitely ask your CFI.

  4. First of all. ASK YOUR INSTRUCTOR.......... if you don't know how to do thies, or the principals at work, it can kill you.

    At UND someone made training video's and put them on the school's website but unless you have a login you can't view them. they are also on some itunes website. I found one or two of them on youtube.

    Good luck and don't kill your self

  5. read the manual...  oh,wait, you flight simming?  if so... cool!

  6. If you're in a sim, for flaps follow the above description. Without flaps is easy. Lower your power, and wait to bleed of some speed, then  raise the nose SLIGHTLY. If you're in a realistic sim, you want to wait for the stall. If you get the nose up too much, you'll have a very hard time recovering. Cruising is going to have to do with fuel mixtures and manifold temps, and I'm not qualified to answer that. The steep turns are pretty easy. Bank less than you think you need to and let it slide just a bit. Push the rudder over to tilt the nose toward the ground, and you'll be into a spiraling turn pretty quick. Just be gentle. Cessnas are kinda wimpy.

    If you're considering doing this stuff in an actual aircraft. Find an experienced instructor, pay the man, and learn. This is not the kind of stuff you want to try at home with amateur instruction. Instructors are absolutely important when trying something new, no matter how many hours you've got. I had an idiot friend who tried to teach himself. Said he'd been flying long enough to be careful enough. He took out a tree, pissed off the insurance people, and gave a few doctors a lot of work.

  7. Man, I have to go back years for this, and I will try my best, which is not going to be very helpful, but here you go: (if I am wrong, accept my apology now)

    Stall- with flaps- obviously lower flaps, reduce air speed, and pull back on the yolk (depending on drag) you should be going under 20 knts.  Almost at a standstill, and if into heavy head wind, actually flying bakwards, then, woosh, you will stall and descend.

    The rest, beats the h**l outta me.  And um, my disclamer:  Don't try this until actually told properly how to do so by a proffesional.  (All these meneuvers are done by proffesionals)
