More often, though, application integration means connecting multiple independent systems, often in complex ways. This is why organizations commonly rely on specialized integratio...
Chapter 4: Energy Management: Mastering Altitude and Airspeed Control Airplane Flying Handbook (FAA-H-8083-3C) Audiobook
February 18, 2022 04:14 - 42 minutes - 24.4 MBChapter Summary. Every pilot is an energy manager—managing energy in the form of altitude and airspeed from takeoff to landing. Proper energy management is essential for performing any maneuver as well as for attaining and maintaining desired vertical flightpath and airspeed profiles in everyday flying. It is also critical to flight safety since mistakes in managing energy state can contribute to loss of control inflight (LOC-I), controlled flight into terrain (CFIT), and approach and lan...
