![Page 13: PRIVATE PILOT](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061413/568158b8550346895dc60147/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
STEEP TURNS
• Elements:– More than 45° bank– After 45° of bank the over-banking tendency of
an airplane overcomes stability
![Page 14: PRIVATE PILOT](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061413/568158b8550346895dc60147/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
STEEP TURNS
• Elements:– More than 45° bank– After 45° of bank the over-banking tendency of
an airplane overcomes stability– Bank tends to increase unless pressure is
applied to aileron controls to prevent it
![Page 15: PRIVATE PILOT](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061413/568158b8550346895dc60147/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
STEEP TURNS
• Elements:– More than 45° bank– After 45° of bank the over-banking tendency of
an airplane overcomes stability– Bank tends to increase unless pressure is
applied to aileron controls to prevent it– High load factors are imposed
![Page 16: PRIVATE PILOT](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061413/568158b8550346895dc60147/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
STEEP TURNS
• Elements:– More than 45° bank– After 45° of bank the over-banking tendency of
an airplane overcomes stability– Bank tends to increase unless pressure is
applied to aileron controls to prevent it– High load factors are imposed– Large amount of vertical component of lift is
lost and so back pressure on elevator is needed

• Conclusion:
![Page 47: PRIVATE PILOT](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061413/568158b8550346895dc60147/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
STEEP TURNS
• Conclusion:
– The steep turn is a performance based maneuver that tests various piloting ability from coordination, orientation, smoothness, and division of attention. A pilot will learn just how well his/her airplane will perform once the added loads are implied on the wings at a 45° bank.
