Pre-Maneuver Checklist [Fuel - Aux / Cowl Flaps - OPEN / Area Clear]
Set Power 18” / 2300RPM / Mixtures Full Rich
Pick Cardinal Heading / Ground checkpoint
Slow towards Vyse (108 mph) Blue line
Power to Idle / Props to Full.
Smoothly bring one throttle (preferably Right to demo critical engine) to full while adding AOB (“Raise the dead”)
and RUDDER to maintain ~ ½ ball towards the good engine. Maintain HEADING!
Smoothly raise the nose to decelerate ~ 1 mph / second towards Vmca (book value of 80 mph). *Vortex generators
will cause the Travel Air to stall below it’s Vs value of 87mph at 80 mph. Vmc = 80 mph at MSL and ISA day. Due to
increased altitude, the engine will produce less horsepower and the Vmc value will be lower than the stall. Bottom
line, when either you hear the stall horn (which is what will happen) OR you begin to lose heading control OR you hit
80 mph, you’ll recover.
AT Vmca (Loss of Heading Control / STALL / or published 80 mph) – RECOVER!
Simultaneously REDUCE power to that required to maintain heading while lowering the nose to accelerate towards
Vyse. As control is regained, bring BOTH throttles back up to full.
ATP PTS STANDARDS
Select an Altitude above 3,000’ [Baron AFM requires >5K]
Maintains positive control. Establishes 5 degrees AOB.
Maintains Altitude + 100 feet / Airspeed + 10 knots / Heading + 10 degrees.

What to Study….
• The following documents within the folder:
– 3-GORDO ATP_BE95-Travel Air Document (this power
point): Memorize the systems & V-speeds (in MPH) on slides 8, 9,
and 12. Of note, the Vmca speed is not listed nor is the Airspeed
indicator marked w/ a Red Line- but it is 80 mph. Be very familiar
with the flow of the flight (Slides 13-20) within the area.
– Pick this Practical Test Standards (PTS) topic to be able to explain.
– 3A - KBC and WT & Balance Document: The KBC gives flows for
both flights, I would expect you both to hit each item w/in the flow
somewhere within your two practice flights. Know how to do a WT
and Balance problem [Weight * Arm = Moment]. The WT & BAL
tab up top will calculate it for you if you input the values within the
green cells. There is a blank example down below if your asked to
do one for practice.
– .
What to Bring / do prior to showing up…
1. Bring a Civilian Logbook.
2. Bring either a valid FAA Medical or a copy of your UP CHIT.
3. Bring your Military Logbook (in case he asks you to show that you have greater
than 1500 hours).
4. Bring the Original Results from your FAA Written Exam.
5. Log into IACRA and apply for the ATP. It will be the CFR part 61 option. The
Aircraft is the BE-D95A and you will get approximately 5 hours. Make sure
you input your hours as accurately as possible within the slots. They need to
be greater than the requirements in order to not pop any red flags with the
FAA Document for Requirements). Save the application when finished and
review w/ IP when you arrive to Jasper.
6. Bring a checkbook for the Gordo and expect to pay $300 to the IP for the
entire amount of ground and flight instruction (Cash only).
7. Gordo charges $500 (prefers cash) for his check ride and then you’ll pay $450 /
flight hour for the Beech Travel Air. Expect to fly between 4 and 5 hours with
your IP plus another 1.5 to 2 hours with Gordo on the check ride. You can pay
either w/ credit card or check for the flight time.
8 Optional - bring something to drink for Gordo's Bar....tis hot in Jasper and
there isn't much to do at night!
