Maneuvering during Slow Flight

Practice this maneuver with a variety of flap configurations while
climbing, descending and turning. Enter the maneuver in level flight
and smoothly reduce power. Maintain altitude while the aircraft slows
to the desired airspeed and trim the aircraft. Add flaps as desired at
V . Add power as necessary to maintain the desired altitude.
FE
Maintain coordination throughout the maneuver with rudder control.
Recover from this maneuver if a stall is encountered.

Execution

• Execute clearing turns,
• Reduce power,
> SR20 - 20% Power / 15" MP (approximately),
> SR22 - 15% Power / 12" MP (approximately),
> SR22 Turbo - 25% Power / 12" MP (approximately).
• Flaps as desired (0% - 100%),
• Bank angle as desired (20º maximum),
• Airspeed - an airspeed at which any further increase in angle of
attack, increase in load factor, or reduction in power would
result in an immediate stall (current PTS standards).

Recovery

• Reduce angle of attack and level wings,
• Apply full power,
• Flaps 50%,
• Accelerate to V
• Flaps 0%,
> SR20 - 85 KTS,
> SR22 - 80 KTS.
• Clear of terrain and obstacles,
• Positive rate of climb.
