Since the level high speed is estimated to be 160 mph and it may be desired to cruise at 90% of
this figure, the actual design cruising speed may well be made, higher than the minimum, permitted by
FAR 23. Accordingly at is proposed to make.

Limited Acrobatic Maneuvers is interpreted to include steep turns, spins, stall (except whip stalls), lazy
eights, and chandelles.
Steep Turns A flight maneuver in which the degree of back varies from 45o to about 75o
Spin A flight maneuvers if done intentionally and a flight condition if it occurs otherwise, which is
the result of a complete stall after which the airplane, still in stalled attitude, loses altitude rapidly, and
travels downward in a vertical helical or spiral path.
Stall The condition of an airfoil or airplane in which it is operating at an angle of attack greater than
the angle of attack of maximum lift. It is a loss of flying speed and in many cases temporary loss of
lift and control of the airplane. A complete stall in normal flying is to be avoided at all times, but it
sometimes occurs unintentionally, because of inexperience piloting, and is sometimes done
inadvertently by the experienced pilot.
Whip stall A flight maneuver or condition, which is the result of a complete stall in which the nose
of the airplane whips violently and suddenly downward. In some cases the airplane slides backward a
short distance before the nose of the plane drops. Whip stalls cause severe strains on the engine
mounts, and all surfaces.
Lazy Eight; Flight An advanced flight training maneuver, which combines the dive, turn and the
climb. It is a maneuver in which the nose of the airplane describes a horizontal figure eight lying on
its side upon the horizon. An object on the horizon is selected and used as an axis for the maneuver,
i.e the horizon divides the halves and the selected object is the intersection of the two halves of the
eight.
Chandelle A flight training maneuver of the composite type, composite type, combining the climb
and turn, approach to a stall and recovery back6to normal flight. The simple chandelle is really an
exaggerated 180o climbing turn in which the bank and climb are gradually increased until a maximum
is reached, approximately at the 90o point during the 180o turn. After reaching this point, recovery is
started by gradually reducing the climb and shallowing the bank until at the time of arriving at the
180o point of the turn, the plane is flying straight and level at a speed just above the stalling point.
The advanced chandelle is started by doing a slight forward slip and pulling up and around; the
initial bank remaining constant. The vertical flight path of the airplane up to 90o point of the turn is
on bias to the vertical plane and as the turn increased the bank only seems to increase. At the 90o
point of the turn, recovery to normal flight (180o change of initial direction) is executed the same as
with the simple chandelle. The main objective of this maneuver is to gain altitude at the same time
that the direction of flight is changed.
3. Acrobatic Category Airplanes in this category will have no specific restrictions as to type of
maneuver permitted unless the necessity therefore is disclosed by the required flight test.

The Phugoid is the long period longitudinal motion.
The Dutch Roll is the long period lateral motion.
The SPO is the short period longitudinal motion.
