by Philip Greenspun and Kasim Te; updated December 2008

Site Home : Flying : One Article


This is intended to be used during a stage check for a CFI applicant in a Robinson R22 or R44. It is a condensed version of the FAA standards effective December 1, 2006. Where the PTS does not specify an airspeed, the number is from the Robinson POH or FAA Rotorcraft Flying Handbook (RFH). Use a red pen to mark an applicant's performance next to the FAA standard.

For each task: instructional knowledge, common errors (identify, analyze and correct simulated), demonstrate and explain.
