# Recommendations - [ ] Dedicated practice utilizing the do verify method of checklist usage - [ ] chair flying specifically - [ ] study and review SOPs $\rightarrow$ these are very important (had trouble recalling proper speeds/power settings) - [ ] also should practice all maneuvers in the ground trainer utilizing the SOPs (this will help to memorize them and get more comfortable with them) - [ ] practice making radio calls and responding to radio calls using liveATC - [ ] don't just listen to it but pick out traffic and listen for their radio calls and simulate what the proper response should be I think the biggest thing for Miguel is to implement a better home study program that is monitored by Ryan. He mentioned to me that he needs to review more, but he seems to be unsure about the best way to review. We spent almost an hour on the preflight and engine starting, which lead to little time available actually flying. He went through the checklist using the read do method but still missed about 1/3rd of the checklist items. Even if he is not going to utilize do / verify, he needs to chair fly all of the checklists in order to improve his efficiency. I reminded him of the fact that it is very expensive to take longer on the ground and how that is not useful time spent in the airplane. With regards to him flying, he also had trouble with the SOPs and seemed to lack situational awareness in almost all aspects. He needs to practice actively engaging with the radios (this can be done in the simulator / liveATC / also in the airplane). We would have busted the bravo departing to the northwest under the 1600 ft bravo shelf if I had not intervened. It is important to continually have discussions with him regarding the importance of paying attention to surroundings (part of this problem does also come from him getting distracted by the checklist when he is not comfortable using it, so an added discussion could be had related to how having thorough understanding of the checklist will reduce the chance of violations and mid air collisions). --- - I switched us over to the practice area frequency when we were over lake Apopka entering slow flight - make sure that you're paying attention to the radios!! This is extremely important for avoiding collisions!! - did not make any position reports or mention making position reports - don't use the rudders to bring the nose over if you overshoot a turn - after landing stated that we don't have to ask for permission to taxi back to parking # Slow Flight (Landing) - said that target airspeed is 60 - lost about 500 feet during the entry - demonstrated slow flight # Power off Stall - slowly let nose down before stalling - did not call stall warning or stall # Power on Stall - did not do clearing turn - did not bug heading - lost about 200 feet before adding power - very uncoordinated with right aileron deflection, left wing drop - demonstrated using a cloud as a reference for rudder inputs # Steep Turns - had opposite rudder in during each turn - held altitude, but had a loss of airspeed from lack of power
