Keep ahead of the student.

Encourage student to do hand flying while workload is low to develop instrument scan (cruise).

While talking about Instrument Scans actually give (You know TEACH) your student a 'Scan' (ask the Rex Interview panel how many pilots have stalled the metro sim during an interview)

Climb: Primary Scan AI-ASI
S&L: AI-VSI
Descent: AI-VSI
Secondary: T scan
And the cross check: Inverted V scan


Build in big safety margins.

Make sure you are well aware of your company’s policies for simulating engine failures: Blue Line +10 above 500' with gear selected up, at night 1000' above LSALT, NOT in IMC

No 1 engine feathered landings. This is so old school thinking!! Read about Duchess at YSBK

No full VMCA demonstrations!! Read about Aerostar off Coffs
