AVIT 323 BLOCK 2 HIGH-YIELD TOPICS
SUMMARY 2026
◉ Explain the three types of hydroplaning and what causes them
Answer: Dynamic: happens at high speeds in standing water
Viscous: happens on wet painted surface
Reverted Rubber: happens with locked brakes
◉ What are the two methods to climb?
Answer: Zoom Climb (Trade Ek for Ep)
Sustained Climb (Use excess thrust)
◉ What forces are parallel to the flight path during climb?
Answer: Drag
