Quality or Quantity? What's More Important To You As A Pilot?




In every aspect of life, be it personal or professional, a sleek review or revisit of the various phases are very important as that helps you to consider various factors in terms of quality or quantity. Quality and Quantity are two pivotal determinants of how you assess your life. The same thing applies when you are assessing your flight life and you have to consider all factors either qualitatively or quantitatively, and this eventually brings out a big part of your personality and your ways of thinking. 

For instance, majority pilots would analyze their flight life in terms of the number of hours and the variations of aircraft models that they have flown with. This is, however, mostly the quantitative benchmark that shows just one side of a pilot's professional life. It doesn't give you a clear idea about the person's personality or their attitude towards their profession. 

However, assessing your flight life qualitatively is tough as it depends a lot on your learning and training that actually prepares you for a bright future as a pilot. It is always better to assess yourself qualitatively, as that lets you have a clear idea about how much you have actually learned and how you have applied your learning throughout your career as a pilot. 

For a trained and seasoned pilot, each flight goes into varying categories and each experience counts a lot. In every case, your training and the skills to avert troublesome situations or equipment malfunction play a crucial role. For instance managing the aircraft performance depends greatly on the designing in reference to aerodynamics as well as the various environmental effects and influences that impact the capabilities of the aircraft to perform. This way an aircraft performance is important and you should have a prior idea about aviation standards in relation to takeoff speed, stall speed including manageable load and numerous other maneuvers. These factors determine the safety factor during a flight. It is important to understand that making any modification to an aircraft structure might affect its performance adversely. 

The atmospheric features like humidity, temperature, density, and pressure have a crucial role to play in modifying the efficiency of the engine of the aircraft, thereby, affecting the performance of the aircraft. To understand the connection between aircraft's performance and the role of atmospheric factors you should know about the association of air temperature and pressure with air density. These are few things that only a proper and all inclusive training can teach you about. To be better prepared in this field you will need a more extensive course.

Troubleshooting EGT system and aircraft tachometers system are two important factors that only an extensive training curriculum can give you. The troubleshooting situations help you to manage situations during flights when your trainer is not with you. During troubleshooting EGT system, the analyzer is deployed to indicate the problem initially. This is greatly helpful in troubleshooting the thermocouples in the aircraft. This system further helps with systematic maintenance. 

There are various situations resulting in different kinds of problem where EGT troubleshooting is required. Having a thorough training can prepare you for each and every kind of situation. Troubleshooting aircraft tachometers requires you to use RPM check system or circuit that's present in the analyzer and does engine speed reading at an engine run-up time, featuring an accuracy of ±0.1%. 

The tachometer system, including the instrument cable, delivers connections for RPM check. The connections should be made with tachometer system and RPM check circuit analyzer. They can be identified as a common parallel circuit as the engine is run-up depending on technical instructions. If reading difference goes beyond the tolerance level, then the engine has to be stopped so that the problem can be corrected in time.
So this is how both quality and quantity matters!

In every aspect of life, be it personal or professional, a sleek review or revisit of the various phases are very important as that helps you to consider various factors in terms of quality or quantity.

How Tachometers And Encoders Are Different?

When talking about tachometers and encoders, these control systems mainly differ on the feedback that each one of them gives. Though both ensure reliable, smooth and accurate operation, but a little confusion between these terms often leads to over-design or over-engineering because it is possible for tachometers to perform a basic function as encoders. And, the best part is a simple tachometer can do the job of a wide range of complex encoders. So what sets them apart when they can perform same? Well, actually both encoders and tachometers are designed to provide you information about the movement of a motor shaft. The only difference that makes them different is that a tachometer is used to measure a speed while encoders are used to calculate the position. In order to understand them in a better way, let’s discuss both the devices one by one: Coming over to Tachometers first, it is the device that is designed to calculate the rpm of a motor. One can achieve this in ...

Turning An Aircraft Need Some Guidelines! Check Them Out

What inspires your learning process in flying an aircraft is how much ready you’re in learning various controls of the aircraft. The quicker, you learn the controls, the speedily you learn how to fly an airplane. You need to know how different controls affect the light status of the aircraft. There are various display controls like aircrafttachometer or speedometer , while there are some other controls, needed for other activities like turning an aircraft etc. Today, we will guide you on how to turn an aircraft. Learn the Concept of How An Airplane Turns With the banking of the wings, the aircraft make their turns possible, which can be done with the banking of the wings in the desired direction at a particular angle, which is referred to as bank angle. Types of Aircraft Turn There are three aircraft turns, which are categorized as follows: Shallow Turn: When the bank angle is less than 20 degrees, the turn of the airplane is categorized as Shallow Turn. ...

An Overview Of Different Types Of Tachometers

Tachometers , a sensor and a measuring device that is used for calculating the revolution speed of the rotating objects. It is used for objects like shafts or disk in the motor of the motor vehicles or other machines where rotation speed is the driving force and is measured in “revolutions per minute” of the rotating object. Talking about its construction, the device comprises a dial, needle, and markings, where needle indicates the result received and markings point at the safe and dangerous levels of the rotating speed that is being measured. Its usage is of extreme importance in many vehicles, which enables the driver to efficiently track the rotating speed along with adjusting the throttle and the gear to the driving conditions. This is done to protect the vehicles from insufficient lubrication, which can cause a breakdown. That is why tachometers form an indispensable part of any vehicle gear. They are an integral part of all those operations where timing and...
