How often do you practice emergencies?
Inspired by the EFATO thread, a general question, with some sub-parts!
How often do you as a PPL/CPL/little-flying-machine-pilot practice emergencies. For example...
- PFL
- Stall recovery in cruise
- Stall recovery from a simulated approach
- Cable break
- Fire
- EFATO
- Inadvertent flight into IMC?
- Anything else?
And which emergencies do you practice?
I'll kick-off:
- PFL about once per month
- Range of stalls every 1-2 months (more if I'm teaching them)
- Don't fly gliders, so don't do cable breaks
- Fire drills every couple of months
- EFATO from a PFL co-around maybe every third month, EFATO from the runway maybe twice per year (again, more if I'm teaching them).
- Flapless approach every 2-3 months
