Скачать или смотреть Archer II Checkout Engine Failure I Stalls I Steep Turns

It was about time to take a break from helicopter flying and get checked out in another aircraft from Murfreesboro Aviation (www.murfreesboroaviation.com). I usually fly their 172 models but sometimes they're not available. For the same price, I have the option of the Archer II, which is a 180 horsepower version of the Archer 1. She's got a climb prop and boy does she get some high quick!

We took off from Murfreesboro "International" and headed East toward the practice area. After some clearing turns, it was time for some slow flight. My CFI was very efficient and after some slow flight turns, I was asked to do a power-off stall. After recovery and getting back to 4,000 ft, it was a power on stall. In the Archer II, and most low wing airplanes I've flown, it really doesn't "buffet" or "break." Just a little mushy controls and I recovered.

We then moved on to steep turns. The first one, to the left, was actually more like 60° of bank and I couldn't hold altitude. After some feedback, I went to the right and was able to maintain altitude for the duration of the 360° turn.

Back toward Murfreesboro we went, talking about my helicopter and UAV/Drone flying.

I hope you enjoyed the view and thanks for tagging along!
