Day 3: Ground-Aerodynamics
Attended another Ground class today. It was combined with another student that is here just this week working on their CMEL. This one was on Aerodynamics and performance issues related to a ME aircraft. We also reviewed an incident in PA from late last year where a twin ended up going down as they worked a lost engine scenario. Basically they kept trying to restart the engine after a training demo of zero-thrust and full feature and shutdown. The additional drag never allowed the aircraft to climb, and ended up impacting trees.
Training is proceeding slowly, but at least I am moving forward.
