Touch and Go @ Alliance

Takeoff and climb at 70

  • barely touch the yolk to take off to prevent a stall

  • speed should be 60 then takeoff

  • right rudder HARD to stay centered

Ensure you are centered

  • look back if you have to

Once past the road, make crosswind turn (turn right)

Continue climbing until you reach 1700 feet (pattern altitude)

  • level off and reduce throttle to 2200 rpm (speed around 90)

Once aligned with JCPenny, make downwind turn

Once you reach the white markings begin descent

  • reduce throttle to 1800 rpm to start descending at 80

Once you reach the white building, make base turn

  • one notch of flap once below 90. should reach 70

Turn final

  • 2 notches of flaps to reach 65 airspeed

  • use ailerons to align with the center of the runway (small corrections)

  • use rudders to align direction

Throttle to 1500 once over piano keys

Descend until the runway starts to expand in your vision

Wait an extra second before flaring to prevent flaring too early

Focus on the horizon and keep the nose up until wheels touch

Once you land, flaps in and start takeoff

Go-Around

Full trottle

Once at Vx (speed 60) put a notch of flaps in

Check you have a positive rate of climb

At Vy put the second of flaps down

Climb out
