In no case will the hours of instruction be less than the total number of hours defined in this syllabus.  \nSTAGE I  \nSTAGE OBJECTIVE  \nDuring this stage, the student will learn airplane components, systems and flight instruments. The student will learn how to compute airplane performance and weight and balance and the aerodynamic principles of flight that affect their operation. The student also will obtain a basic knowledge of safety of flight, airports, airspace, and aeronautical charts.  \nSTAGE COMPLETION STANDARD  \nThis stage is complete when the student has taken the Stage I written exam with a minimum passing score of 70%, and the instructor has reviewed each incorrect response to ensure complete understanding before the student progresses to Stage II.  \nGROUND LESSON 1  \nTEXT REFERENCE: Private Pilot Manual-Chapter 2, \"Airplane Systems\"  \n14 CFR Section 91  \nAircraft Pilots Operating Handbook (POH), Section 2  \nLESSON OBJECTIVE: During this lesson the student is introduced to airplanes, the powerplant and related systems, and the flight instruments. The student will also learn what equipment is required to be on the aircraft and procedures for flying with inoperative equipment.  \nCONTENT:  \nSection A- \"Airplanes\"  \n-Major Components  \n--Fuselage  \n--Wing  \n--Empennage  \n--Trim Devices  \n--Landing Gear/Brakes  \n--Powerplant  \n-Pilot’s Operating Handbook  \n-Airworthiness Requirements--Required Maintenance and Inspections--Airworthiness Directives  \n--Aircraft Equipment Required for VFR Day and Night  \n--Kinds of Operation Equipment List (KOEL)  \n--Inoperative Instruments and Equipment  \n--Special Flight Permit  \n--Required Aircraft Certificates and Documents  \nSection B- \"Powerplant and Related Systems”  \n-Engines – Reciprocating Engine Operation  \n-Induction System--Carburetor  \n--Fuel Injection  \n-Ignition System  \n-Fuel System  \n-Oil System  \n-Cooling System  \n-Exhaust System  \n-Propeller/ Propeller Hazards  \n-Electrical System  \nGround Lesson 1 (Continued)  \nSection C- \"Flight Instruments”  \n-Pitot-Static System  \n--Airspeed Indicator – Markings and Types of Airspeed  \n--Altimeter – Types of Altitude and Altimeter Errors  \n--Vertical Velocity Indicator  \n--Blockage of Pitot-Static System  \n-Gyroscopic Principles – Rigidity in Space and Precession  \n-Gyroscopic Sources of Power  \n-Gyroscopic Instruments--Attitude Indicator--Heading Indicator  \n--Turn Coordinator  \n-Magnetic Compass and Magnetic Compass Errors  \n-Integrated Flight Displays--Primary Flight Display--Multifunction Display ","cbCaigzFTY0isPVI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigzFTY0isPVI","pdf",216387,31,"English","# Ground Training Course Objectives\n## Ground Training Completion Standards\n## Ground Training Time Allocation (Stages I-III)\n## Exam Review\n## Stage I: Ground Lessons 1-6\n## Stage II: Ground Lessons 7-12\n## Stage III: Ground Lessons 13-17\n## Note on Text References and Hour Guidelines","[{\"question\":\"What are the ground training prerequisites for enrollment?\",\"answer\":\"The syllabus states that there are no prerequisites for enrollment in the ground training portion of the private pilot course.\"},{\"question\":\"How does a student complete each ground training stage?\",\"answer\":\"A stage is complete when the student meets the ground training objectives through oral discussion, written and oral quizzes, and demonstrates sufficient knowledge to progress.\"},{\"question\":\"What topics are covered in Ground Lesson 1?\",\"answer\":\"Ground Lesson 1 introduces airplane components, the powerplant and related systems, flight instruments, required equipment, and procedures for flying with inoperative equipment.\"}]","Private Pilot Course - Ground Training Syllabus | PDF",1790308862,78]
