LESSON 2
DUAL-LOCAL

SEQUENCE:
1. Preflight Orientation
2. Flight
3. Postflight Evaluation

LESSON OBJECTIVE:

During this lesson, the student will review, as necessary, the procedures introduced in Lesson 1 to gain proficiency in turn performance and airspeed control techniques. Basic maneuvers by instrument reference are introduced to increase the student’s airplane control skills.
