Note that we were talking about turns at either 45 or 60 degrees bank; with a typical trainer flying at, say 90 or 100 knots, a 360 would be completed under say, 35 or 20 seconds respectively. Now, if your numbers of 200 feet per minute are correct (and don't take it personally if I have my doubts), the turbulence would have gone down, by about 115 and 67 feet respectively. Considering that the acceptable range of error in the PTS for a private certificate is +/- 100 feet (for a 45 degrees of bank), it is indeed possible to bump into your own turbulence, even using your numbers. If they descend, yes. QED. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

All of them should be moving downward, though. Which means that if you try to catch your own wake at constant altitude, you should miss it, as it will have drifted downward. Or am I missing something? The best value of a good simulator is that it enables training of situations that would be unsafe to do in a real aircraft.Flying into wake turbulence is a good example. But flying into wake turbulence can flip your aircraft onto the ground. Is that really worth practicing? You should be avoiding it instead. Rather like the logic that says that it's better to train at avoiding spins than to train at recovering from them. It´s the same training fjukktard bertie |
